VS 2008 Balloon Tooltip Not Pointing Where I Specify?
Nov 28, 2011I have a balloon tool tip and want to show it as follows:
vb
Dim CompleteTooltip As New ToolTip With {.IsBalloon = True, .ToolTipTitle = "Title", .ToolTipIcon = ToolTipIcon.Info}
CompleteTooltip.Show("Click close to confirm changes", btnClose, CInt(btnClose.Width / 2), CInt(btnClose.Height / 2), 5000)
i would have thought if i specify that i want a balloon tooltip the point that i specify would be the point that the balloon points to - NOT the upper left point of the tooltip itself... how can i specify the balloon point rather than the upper left point?
Using Variables In Label Names?
Dec 25, 2009I have a series of labels to modify through a loop. here's an example of the code i need to modify
lbl1.forecolor = color.black
lbl2.forecolor = ...
I need to iterate the lbl number each time through the loop as the color value will change from label to label.Clueless on how to do so with a loop vs the "long" way of doing code for each separate label. I have 169 to modify each time I change input so I'd rather not unless I have to
Adding 2 Variables And Result Appearing In Label?
Nov 12, 2009I am trying to add 2 variables and the result to appear in a label.The case is that there is a platinum version of an album which costs more. The extra cost depends on the album so it varies.If the user wants to purchase an ordinary and a platinum album then I must add the two variables and the combined price to appear in a label. The normal and platinum prices appear fine when the other is zero but when I increase the quantity on both the label remains blank.I have an if statement like this:
If PriceNormal >0 and PricePlatinum = 0 Then
lblPrice.text = PriceNormal.ToString("C")
End If[code]......

Multiple .NET Version Projects Pointing To Same Files?
Jun 29, 2009I have some assemblies that were developed using .NET 1.1. These are business layer assemblies that are required for other .NET 1.1 applications to work. I have been developing our new applications using .NET 2.0/3.5. I would just convert the business layer projects over to 2.0 and be done with it, but those old 1.1 applications just won't die.As such, has anyone ever had two different .vbproj files (one a .NET 1.1 project file and the other a .NET 2.0/3.5 project file) that pointed to the same set of files so they could be compiled appropriately?

VS 2005 - Localization In Windows Application - Label Which Text Is Merged With Some Variables Or Object Properties
Sep 2, 2010I've implemented the localization in my windows application with no problem for the label or command button which have a fixed text.
My problem is related to the label which text is merged with some variables or object properties.
E.g.: vb label1.text = "There are " & myDataGridView.Rows.Count.ToString() & " items"
So, how can I set (if it's possible) the localization for these labels? I've this kind of assignment in modules and not in the form. It's possible to set a resources file also for modules?
Passing Multiple Byref Variables / Variables Fail To Change Calling Funct W/ Invoke
Sep 27, 2010I have code, shown below, that works all except for 1 thing: The variables being passed byRef get passed, but once modified in the else section of the "if me.invokerequired" code of RecordData, the variables are never updated in the calling function. To reiterate, the calling function does not receive the updated data that is in the variables custid and amt.When debugging, I see the data change in the else section of "if me.invokerequired", but once it returns from the callback the data is missing.[code]
View 15 RepliesDefine Some Global Variables Of A Class - Variables Occupy Memory?
Mar 23, 2012I define some global variables of a class as follows:
Private Class MyClass
Private var1 as Decimal
Private list1 as List(Of string)[code].....
But I found that after this form is closed, all above variables, var1, list1, list2 still exist in memory. I thought they should be collected by gc since the form is already disposed as I confirmed.
Add: I have monitored half an hour after the form is closed. But these variables are not collected by gc. I have an automatic update procedure on the form which uses above variables.Since the above variables still hold values, the automatic update procedure is always called which causes exception. (One quick fix is to check if form.isDisposed in update procedure. But I do not think this is elegeant. Besides, these variables occupy memory.)
Memory Used In Declaring Variables Are Reclaimed By The OS When These Variables Go Out Of Scope?

Jan 4, 2011I have a class that does four things: unzips and zips files, downloads and uploads files. It needs to complete all four actions for 9 different command line apps. Which means, unfortunately, that there needs to be 4 different strings for each time. All in all, I need to create 36 strings which are different command line arguments. I need to figure out the best way to accomplish this. Should I just create all 36 strings in the class? Or should I use a constructor? Or... properties? Maybe a structure?

I have a label that says "Press enter to Play", and if the user presses play the flag is true, the label visible is set to false. I have the keydown event to check if the enter button has been pressed, i checked if it works and it does, but the var of the flag is always false in my other subs...
Thats the thing with vb i dont understand is when you make a public variable, and when you change the value of the var in a sub, it doesnt change globally.

View 6 RepliesVS 2008 - Interfaces And Private Variables
Apr 22, 2010I'm trying to get a handle on creating my own Interfaces for a project I'm working on. I know the MSDN help shows that all member signatures will become Public when implmented, etc, etc. However, if I implement the IDisposable interface provided by the framework, comments and private members and fields show up! Not only that, but some of the methods have comments and code within!
How did they do that? And can comments, private fields and members, and predetermined code be declared as part of an interface by the average developer?

VS 2008 Declaration Of Variables Vs Properties?
Jan 22, 2011I have several classes that use a bunch of strings for directories, arguments, etc.
At the moment, they're all just declared globally within the class like so:
VB.NET
Private str1 As String = "path"
Private str2 As String = "path2"
Private str3 As String = "arg"
To me, that looks awful and doesn't seem like the proper way of doing things. So, I was thinking, should I make a property for each string and then use a constructor to initialize them?
Would that make a difference at all? Is that the proper way of doing things?Also, some strings are used in a ton of different places and they're basically just being copied from one class and pasted into another. So, do you think I should do what I suggested above, but with a class whose sole purpose is to house those strings so that the code isn't duplicated a million times everywhere? Would that be the most efficient way of doing things?
