I have an access database for steel members. Each table has a different type of member, and then in those tables, each size of that member type.
I am about to create a tool that draws these sections when they are selected, but as there are 12 different member types, I don't really want to have 12 different Subs for "Draw" that essentially do the same thing.
I considered polymorphism.. (I think I have it correct)

I am using a Hashtable which stores unique names and objects associated with those names. Now those objects have a property called "IsDynamic" and some of them have it set to false whie some of them have it set to true. So when I retrieve any object using the key property, it goes to find me that object. How do I override that find method?

I want to create constructor that can create container with these properties:
1. Only Diameter, in new sub define it round shape.
2. Diameter and Volume.
3. Length and Width (for rectangle shape)
All are double data type, but problem is 2 and 3 are conflict.How to let program know I want to create round shape container or rectangular shape container?

Probably an easy question to answer...I have 9 buttons on my form
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
etc. and all do the same thing so how can I merge them into the same sub so i don't have to copy and paste a bunch?
Can a BackgroundWorker call additional subs? In my program I am connectiong to an OPC Server. I am doing some AsynReads, which in themselves don't take anytime. But Once I get the AsyncReadComplete returned, I want to do the AsyncRead right away. Basically I need to Loop them. The problem now is that while it is doing this, Everything is unresponsive, because it is just going through the loop. So to perhaps rephrase the question, If the BackgroundWorker initiates a process (in this case AsyncRed) would the returned AsyncReadComplete be apart of the BackgroundWorker or seperate Thread?
View 7 RepliesI want to use a string array created in a different private sub in another, so I need to pass the array. How do I accomplish this task?
View 2 RepliesBasicly I have a set of public subs, (not related to a form), inside a public class, and all of them share a variable. One of the subs, the one called for first gives the variable a value.
When the next sub is called, the variable is null. The data in the variable has been erased as the execution of the prior public sub ended I'm guessing.
I'm almost sure that I've seen this somewhere, but I can't find it anymore. Or maybe I'm imagining it, which would'nt be strange either.
When creating a sub or function and adding parameters used when calling it.
-Is it possible to list the parameters that I can enter when using it somewhere in my code?
E.g.
Public Sub MessageMain(ByVal Message As String, ByVal MessageType As String (List of possible values for MessageType)) Same for example as when you have boolean values in a sub/function. As soon as you use that somewhere in your code intellisense will present you with True/False to select.
I'd like the same for parameters in subs or functions I create and calling them from somewhere in my code. Saves me the trouble of remembering which options are available for those parameters.
i have have a few questions about the syntax of the lan.:
1) What is the 'Get' statement and when do you use it?

Is it possible to make it so that the user using the Class Library has to declare a new Instance of MainClass() before using Subs/Functions in Class2 or Class3?

Some of my DataGridViewCells return the wrong value in their GetClipboardContent method. They are cells in a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn cells, so they use the displayed property, not the value property of the cell. I want it to return the value itself.An initial attempt was simply using
Protected Overrides Function GetClipboardContent(ByVal rowIndex As Integer, ByVal firstCell As Boolean, ByVal lastCell As Boolean, ByVal inFirstRow As Boolean, ByVal inLastRow As Boolean, ByVal format As String) As Object Return Value End Function in my DataGridViewComboBoxCell descendant but then I noted that this method is called more than one time per cell value, once for every data format DataGridView supports by standard, which are format="HTML", "Text", "UnicodeText" and "Csv". For csv, the base implementation appends a comma if it's not the last cell, for html it adds the correct tags depending on if it's the first/last row/cell in the table/table row, etc. I consider this format-specific, not cell-value specific.
So how could I replace the value that ends up in the clipboard without re-implementing all those format-specific aspects? That would result in quite some code for functionality that already exists in the base class, wouldn't it?

I have a main class that has a Sub procedure with no implementation. Any derived class should override and implement this procedure, so I used MustOverride in the base class.
Now, any time this procedure is called, I need to set a specific Boolean variable to True at the beginning of the procedure and set it to False at the end.
Is there a way to avoid writing these two lines of code in procedure implementation of every single derived class? Can I set this value to True in the base class, then run procedure in the derived class and then set the value back in the base class?

At run-time after creating the DataGridView instance and bind the data I do the following:

If k > 0 Then grid.Columns(k).CellTemplate = New CustomCell()

rticularly when creating jQuery buttons with no text and just icons) as a result of this.Secondly I am attempting to create my own custom button output by overriding the Render() event and am having a bit of difficulty trying to understand how to go about changing the output that is provided by this event.If I look at the HtmlTextWriter that is provided as the parameter to the Render() event I can see it contains a protected property TagKey = Input {47}, is it possible to simply modify this property somehow and change it to a Button or do I need to create a new instance of the HtmlTextWriter and populate it all from the start? If so, could anyone provide some guidance as to how this would typically be done and if there are any special considerations I need to make to ensure that my derived button class is functionally equivalent to the original (excluding the html)?

I have a custom version of a label control (built using a user control). While working in the designer, I want to intercept the setting of the Name property (in the properties panel) and use it to generate the Text property. That is, if I enter "lblFirstName" into the Name property of the properties panel I want to immediately see that the Text property is set to "First Name". Parsing the Name property is not the issue; I can do that.
I have tried to overload/shadow the Name property (since "Overrides" is not allowed) to essentially add this "aspect" to our custom label control but it doesn't seem to hit the Shadowed method at design time. It does hit the Shadowed method at run time if manipulated via code. The point is to avoid double the work as the label text and the label name are essentially the same. The only difference is one is formatted to be human friendly and the other machine friendly.

This may be a matter of picking the right attributes. Conversely, if it's an easier alternative, we could allow setting the Text property to set the Name property. I doubt this would be easier since it should also reflect the new name in the Designer.vb code, not just in the label's Name property itself.
