VS 2008 Add One Of Own Classes To An Existing Framework Namespace
Sep 23, 2009
When you develop a class library that will be used by others, are there any guidelines on how you decide what namespace to put it under? I often find third party classes just use the company name as the root namespace but I was also wondering if it is frowned upon (or even possible) to add one of your own classes to an existing framework namespace.
Basically we have migrated our application from VB6 to .NET and used same API calls in .NET as well.
Now the time has come to replace all API calls to .NET framework classes.
We used those API calls to validate textboxes by popping up a temporary error message box next to textbox object. After few seconds, the error message box disappears by itself or on loosing the focus of textbox.
If we can use the similar functionality of .NET, then there will be less code changes
Is there any limit on number of classes that a namespace can have in .net ? Further what is the recommended number of classes that there should be in a namespace?
iam creating Vb.net classes under the different namespaces after that build that source code,i got the Type Library file.but iam using the Assembly Name in VB6.0 iam not able to getting classes under the namespace wise.
eg: Dim A As New Test.A - It was possible
but iam using with one namespace like
Dim A As New Test.Utility.A
This was not working.
Dim obj As DynamicPDF.ReportDocumentLayout - it was comes correctly But, Dim obj As DynamicPDF..ReportWriter.ReportDocumentLayout - Not comes like this.
Is it possible to have multiple classes in a namespace and be able to reference the functions within the clases if the Major class is instaniatated from another class?? for instacnce:
Namespace Database Public Class Data Public Class Prepare
I am fresher in vb.net but I want to develop a project in this case I want to use the system.Configuration namespace's specific calsses. But I am not clear which class i use and why it's function and it's use.
I have a large web app in vb.net 4.0. Its default namespace is configured in its project properties. None of the root-level classes in our app are surrounded by namespace declarations. When I add a .asmx file to the root folder of the website, it compiles fine, but it doesn't work for some reason (already asked why in other topics). So to get it to work, I try to surround the class declared in the .asmx by a namespace declaration. As soon as I do this, I go from zero compiler errors to about a zillion. My app can't find ANYTHING in the root namespace. But I haven't changed any other files, only this .asmx file.
WHY is it behaving this way? How do I prevent it from behaving this way without refactoring the entire app? I would love to blank out the default namespace and add them explicitly around every root-level class, but I'm not sure that would fly with our release manager, and I don't even know if it would fix the problem.
is there any reason why we couldn't add/extend an interface to an already existing class?
i believe this would be v useful. it would be like drawing links from my class to already existing classes, and drawing links from already existing classes to already existing classes
We are migrating our applications to VB.Net 2008 from Classic VB and I need to create a base namespace and business layer. My method of approach is going to be to visit our top BA and identify the common areas of our (Fixed Income) company and try to form a decent inheritence model with as much of the code in generics as possible. What's everyone's experience of doing this and also as a second part of the question, we are looking at incorporating Web Focus into the OLAP side, how would this affect the design of the corporate namespace and it's derivatives?
As my latest questions have stated, i am in a process of researching on Silverlight 3 and its application as a suitable RIA solution to a pre-built project a client of ours wishes to webify. And my experience in .Net and silverlight is about 3 - 4 weeks.I have now become aware of .Net RIA Services. I require to use an existing VB class; which was created as a quick wrapper class to emulate a small piece of the client's application code. This is used as a proof of concept. It contains one function which uses the client's DLL files to return a simple data type This class has already been used successfully with Flex/Weborb combination.I unfortunately do not have enough knowledge or experience in Silverlight/RIA Services to grasp what it is i have to do to get the file working. All the examples I find online only specify the method where you use a database as dataSource etc.Could you please inform me how i would go about implementing RIA Services with Silverlight 3, using existing code/classes with no DB? Or could you point me in a direction for further research on the matter?
I want to know what are classes , objects , a namespace , subroutines,functions,methods,properties and differemce betweem byval and byref in your words.
We've just re-targeted a VB.NET project from .Net 2.0 to 3.5.Various framework types are now missing from our project. Wherever the type is referenced using a fully qualified namespace it's missing. If the relevant namespace is imported for the type; it's found.For example,this doesn't find the type Object, with compiler error "System.Object is not defined.":
EDIT: The above class is just an example of what could be returned from a web service. I won't have access to modify it at all, sorry if I didn't make that clear.Is it possible to somehow make a clone this class, so that it retains all of the properties values, but hides the fact that there is a Public function?I'd like to be able to take some existing classes we retrieve from a web service(which we didn't write) and be able to pass them on for use in an application, but without exposing the functions. I don't want to go down the route of creating my own classes that specifically define each property and write the values in (due to the sheer size of some of them), so I'm looking to see if there is anything dynamic I can utilise (maybe there is a way using reflection?).
I'm using a 3rd party tool to generate my model including code classes for the MS Entity framework. What I wanna do is etablish a real layer application. I'm speaking of the layers:
Presentation Business Data
If I'm not wrong the generated classes represent the data layer. My question is if I should wrap this classes up for my business layer or not. In some way these generated classes already represents the logic of my application as it was derived from my database. But is this enough?
I definitely wanna use LINQ as well which works pretty good with the generated classes alone.
I'm looking forward to any comments.BTW: It's going to be a ASP.NET web application. I have used the projetc type "class library" for the data layer. The web application will use this DLL.
If I look at some classes in the framework, using reflector, I can see that forms and user controls are made private and nested into a parent class.For instance, I have a control which makes use of pop-up form that is specific to that control.At the moment, I make the pop-up form friend accessible.If I wanted to do it the framework way, I'd make it private and nest it into the control class.If I do this, however, I can no longer use the ide to design the form and I get errors when I try to compile.
1. Is it possible to fitler with MSDN DExplorer or any other tools the Classes supported only in .NET Framework 1.0, or 1.1 or 2.0? I know with MSDN DExplorer when you click on any class there's an info tab with supported .NET Framework versions. But I want to filter all classes supported in .NET Framework 1.1. for example.
2. Is it correct to say that .NET Framework versions are only upgradable (addition) with new Classes and functions but and all Classes for example supported in 1.1. are also supported in 2.0 and also supported in 3.5. For example are there any obsolete (removed) classes or functions supported in previous but not in later version of .NET Framework?
I read some statements of Microsoft in their msdn site articles that everything supported in previous framework is supported in the next, like there are backward and also forward compatabilities. This is not quite my question, my 2nd question is do you know exactly which classes / functions are changed or deleted, if there are such? I know there are new, but are there changed or deleted?
I seem to be having a problem with controls that I am creating as new classes (not UserControls) inheriting from an existing system control. Everything seems ok while I create the control code, through to the compile (which is successful and adds the control to the toolbox) and dragging the control from the toolbox to the GUI surface. However, when I then debug or compile the project, I get a message such
I am work on VB.net 2003 Framework 1.1 for last 3.5 years in windows Application.We are currently migrating to VB.net 2008 framework 3.5, but i don't know about the features which related to ADO.net and which is important to performance. I know linq to SQL but our architecture is made in .net 2003 so we should follow this.Any features which is very important to enhance the performance?
CREATE TABLE [LogLevel] ( [Id] int primary key ,[Name] nvarchar(50) not null
[code]....
After creating a fresh endity model, I add the two tables above. When I try to build I get the following errors...
Type argument 'Inxsol.CommandPlan.Data.Model.Log.LogLevel' does not satisfy the 'Class' constraint for type parameter 'TEntity'. Value of type 'System.Data.Objects.DataClasses.EntityReference(Of Inxsol.CommandPlan.Data.Model.LogLevel)' cannot be converted to 'System.Data.Objects.DataClasses.EntityReference(Of Inxsol.CommandPlan.Data.Model.Log.LogLevel)'.
I need to read an xml document from a database record into an XDocument object in order for it to be deserialized. So that the deserialization will work, I need to apply a specific namespace to each of the level 1 elements. So XML looks a bit like this:
[Code]...
How do I prevent the blank/empty namespace being added to each child element of the element to which the required namespace has been applied?
This class is located in the namespace Acme.Infrastructure.Interface.A class with the same name EventArgs exists in the System namespace.In another project in my solution I have a class Acme.BusinessModules.MyModule.MyClass.When attempting to use the EventArgs class I have to fully qualify the class name or the compiler thinks I am using the System.EventArgs class.My understanding of namespace resolution was that the compiler would first look for the class in the current namespace, and then its parents. It seems that the compiler checks in System before it checks in sibling namespaces. Is it correct that System is checked before the sibling? Or is this behaviour caused by other issues (Imports order?)?
I have two classes, one nested in the other. [code]Neither "Name" or "ID" are unique between operations and records.I wish to construct a dictionary using LINQ = Dictionary(Of String, Of List(Of Integer), whereby the keys are uniqe examples of Names in my collection and the values are the collective set of distinct IDs that are associated with those names.
How can I structure my classes so that the user interfaces though a single class while the supporting classes are hidden from their view? I think its best understood in an example:
Public Class MyInterface Public Economic as EconomicClass Public Sub New() MyBase.New()
[code].....
So you might ask why am I even separating them? It's strictly for others who will be working with this interface. I need to funnel them though a logical structure:
This way everything is already handled for them in the background and they only need to run the method they need. I don't know if I can have it both ways in VB.NET.
i want to use namespace and class so that when i want to change the name of my database, or user Id or password, i will only change in the namespace page, so that life will be much easy.here is a namespace creating for vb.net 2005
I've currently got a class that has a bunch of functions within it that I'd like to group up. I can't seem to find a way to do this, as the functions interact with the objects within the class (so I can't use a structure for example). Namespaces are only allowed outside of Classes as are modules. Let's say I have Class Foo. Inside Class Foo there are six functions, three that are logically grouped together and another three that are as well.
Class Foo Public Function moneyFoo1() Public Function moneyFoo2() Public Function moneyFoo3()
