VS 2010 ArrayList Or String Collection To Hold A Bunch Of Strings?

Dec 18, 2010

Speed is critical in my application. As of now, I'm using an ArrayList to store a list of Strings and I use BinarySearch functionality of ArrayLists to search for an item. Would I be able to do this faster using String Collection and a for loop?

Create An Array Of An Array (or Arraylist Of An Arraylist) To Hold Strings?

Mar 20, 2012

I want to create an array of an array (or arraylist of an arraylist) to hold strings.I want to fill an array1 with string values Then add this array to array2. - but only taking up 1 row in array2 e.g something like array2(index)=array1 Then clear array1 then loop through this again with different data, and add it to the array2.so will end up with something like

array2(0)... contains a collection of array1 data
array2(1)... contains a collection of different array1 data
.. and so on

i think i need to make new instances of array1 each loop, but not sure.I dont mind if it uses arrays, or arraylists, or lists, or structure of arrayslists?

Adding A Bunch Of Values To A List(Of T) Collection At Once?

Mar 12, 2010

I am creating an instance of a Generic List collection and I am surprised to find that I can't add more than one value to it at a time. I was thinking there was going to be something like what you can do with arrays, where you can add a group of values to it at creation. I saw the AddRange method, but that seems to add another collection to the end of this collection, which is not what I want. So my code is:

vb

Dim MyList as New List(Of String)
MyList.Add("John")
MyList.Add("Bob")

[Code].....

Store References To A Bunch Of Structs In A Collection?

Oct 28, 2011

I would like to store references to a bunch of structs in a collection. The general scaffolding looks like this:

Structure myStructType
Dim prop1 as String
Dim prop2 as int
End Structure

[Code]....

now this doesn't work, because it's referencing the same memory. What I would really want is the 'pass reference by value' behaviour that is also used for reference types, so that I can easily keep producing more of them.

Is there any way to fix this other than to make the structs into classes? Is this actually a proper way to use structs, or do I have it all wrong?

Prepend A String To All Strings In A List Of Strings?

Aug 5, 2010

I have a list of strings. For each string in that list, I want to prepend another string. I wrote a method to do it, but I was wondering if there was something already in .NET I could use to do this. It seems like something that could be built in, but I was not able to find anything.

Here is the method I wrote:

Private Function PrependToAllInList(ByRef inputList As List(Of String), ByRef prependString As String) As List(Of String)
Dim returnList As List(Of String) = New List(Of String)
For Each inputString As String In inputList
returnList.Add(String.Format("{0}{1}", prependString, inputString))

[code].....

It works, but I would rather use built in functions whenever possible.

Save Some Strings In A Session("myKey") As An ArrayList In Asp.net?

Feb 17, 2012

I want to save some strings in a Session("myKey") as an ArrayList in my asp.net application.

So I have somthing like that:

Dim s As String = "String1"
If I use
Session("myKey") = s

it is working for the moment.

After PostBack I want to add another string to the session.

If do the same thing again, then i will overwrite my Sessiondata.

So I'm searching for something like this:

Dim s As String = "String1"
TryCast(Session("myKey"), ArrayList).Add(s)

In this case the Sessiondata would be stored correctly, but my code is not correct.

VB - VS 2010 Doesn't Hold A Link To A File In A Different Folder It Copies

Apr 4, 2012

I have a vb.net project that has 2 exe's that get built as well as the installer. The two exe's share a bunch of common files. I do not want to have two copies of the common files or mess around with having build events that copy things around (if possible).

My method was to create two projects in the same folder and have them point to the files they needed. This appeared to work until I tried to compile both apps at which point I get an error in a file called Application. Designer.vb. It seems that project files create this file in their folder and when I have two solutions in the same folder they conflict. So my next effort was to create the second project in it's own folder and just add the items as needed. The problem here is that VS2010 doesn't hold a link to a file in a different folder it copies the file to the new project folder. What is the vs2010 way to get this done?

ArrayList Search For PART Of String?

Jun 10, 2010

I have an ArrayList, and i wish to search it for a specific part of a string. Like the InStr() function.I can only find the WHOLE string. The ArrayList has strings like "This=Is A String", so if i do a check with ArrayList.Contains. It will only search for the whole string, and not something IN the string. Perhaps i need something like Starts With .

Code:

If wordArr.Contains(TextBox1.Text) Then
