VS 2010 Generic Collection Queue?
Apr 16, 2011
Ok say I have this Dim MyQueueOfClients as new Queue (Of TcpClient) I also have two threads.
In thread one a TcpListener waits for connections then adds a connected TcpClient to MyQueueOfClients.
MyQueueOfClients.Enqueue (TcpClient)In thread two I then check to see if there are any Clients in MyQueueOfClients. If so I then remove them from the MyQueueOfClients.
MyTcpClient = MyQueueOfClients.Dequeue I think the question Im asking is this thread safe?
Can I Enqueue and Dequeue at the same time from different threads?
Well it helps if you read everything. I have just read this as well
A Queue(Of T) can support multiple readers concurrently, as long as the collection is not modified. Even so, enumerating through a collection is intrinsically not a thread-safe procedure. To guarantee thread safety during enumeration, you can lock the collection during the entire enumeration. To allow the collection to be accessed by multiple threads for reading and writing, you must implement your own synchronization.

As the title says can I create a memorystream then use it in a FIFO manner like a Queue.When you use memorystream.write it writes data at the memorystream.postion.If I then want to read the beginning of the memory stream I have to set position to the beginning and do a memorystream.read.

I have the below code and it works fine, it's this way because I need to manually calculate some data before adding it to the Listview control.
Code:
Dim mList As List(Of ListViewItem) = mDataBase.GetRecords(LvwChecks, "CheckGroups", <Query>, GetType(CheckItem))
If mList.Count > 0 Then

I know its generally a big No-No to modify a collection that you are iterating through but unfortunately i didn't design the code that i'm trying to modify. All over the place the following is done:
for each log in Logs
logs.Delete(log.LogId)
Next
Delete pretty much just deletes the log from the database and removes it from the collection. Previously the Logs object was using a Non-Generic collection. I changed it to use a Collection(Of Log) so i can LINQify the object. Now every time i call next/.MoveNext is called after the first delete the following error happens:
InvalidOperationException:"Collection was modified; enumeration operation may not execute."
I understand why i'm getting the error but i don't understand why it never happened with the Non-Generic version. Is there anyway to get around this error? There really is no way i can take the time to change every place where the delete logs like this (codebase is large). Id like to just remove the code in the Delete function where it removes it from the current collection because i'm assuming no code does anything with the collection after its done but you know what happens when you assume.

I have a class which extends HashSet(Of T).I am trying to evaluate some custom properties of this HashSet during execution and make decisions based on those values.
During debugging, I am pausing execution and adding a Watch on my instance of this HashSet.
The Watch only provides me with a view of the Count of the HashSet and the objects contained by the HashSet.How can I get the Watch to show me the other properties of the HashSet?

Say a collection grow. Once it's size reach 10k, I want to get rid the first 9k. How to do so?Oh ya I could use removeRange.Is there another function that will output say, the last 1k of the element, say if I do not want to remove anything? Something like tail or something.

To the point: I need to transfer a custom object's event through a generic collection object containing these items so that any class using the collection can see that changes were made to one of the items in the collection.
I.E. An item event that triggers a collection event
[Code].....
Due to the application requirements, I need the Collection and Items to send immediate notice of various changes that occur to the Collection Class and its items. I've already got my events set-up regarding for the Collection Class, but I'm struggling with coming up with a workable solution for raising events for the items.
I've got an event for the DeviceLayer item set-up, but how do you transfer that event through the CollectionClass so that any other class using it will see that there was a change to one of the items in the collection?

This is really a continuation from my earlier post. I've never worked with this datatype/collection (system.collection.generic.Ienumerable) before so I'm struggling to declare the query globally so I can reference the results within other sub routines/functions. I also am struggling to convert it to other types.how I can convert the collection of xml elements/system.collection.generic.Ienumerable into an xmltextreader (I know I will have to change the query below as it select the value of the node and not the node itself) I imagine by converting the query result to system.IO.stream My first port of call was MSDN but I find the material very difficult to understand for this particular subject.

I have several custom classes in a VB.NET (VS2008) project which are related to each other through generic list collections. The lower tier classes refer directly to some of the parent classes (to make it easier to refer backwards up the chain). My question is, is it possible to add the reference to the parent class when the item is added to a collection, when that collection is a property?
Below is some sampling of code to illustrate.
Public Class FlexServer
Private m_FlexLicenses As List(Of FlexLicense)
Private m_Modules As List(Of FlexModule)
Public Property FlexLicenses() As List(Of FlexLicense)
[code] .....
In the code above I have the FlexServer class which refers has two lists as properties, one for FlexLicense and one for Modules. The FlexLicense class has a property to refer back to the FlexServer class that "owns" it. In order to update this property in code, I have to add the FlexLicense to the FlexServer.FlexLicenses list AND set the FlexLicense.FlexServer property. What I am looking for is, is there a way (in the property definition or wherever) to both add the item to the list and alter it at the same time?

There are a lot of different generic collections available, so the wisdom in creating a new one may be questionable right from the start.However, I often find myself wanting the same features from my custom generic lists, but cannot quite find all of those features in an existing object; namely, I would like to have a generic collection which works like a List or Dictionary (much like the System.Collections. ObjectModel. Keyed Collection(Of TKey, TValue)), but also works like a BindingSource does when it is bound to an ADO object (that is, it supports full sorting and filtering as well as currency).A feature I almost never need however, is transactional adds (the BindingSource's ability to 'cancel add-new').Again, with so many existing collections out there, I should take a moment to go over the reasons why none of them quite meet my needs.There is the System. ComponentModel. BindingList(Of T) which would provide some of the functionality of a BindingSource, but has strict requirements about the type {T} implementing IComparable in order to support sorting, and does not provide filtering (it is not an IBindingListView).It also only maintains a base item list by index, so does not provide keyed access.We could use simple databinding with a custom list inheriting from System.Collections. ObjectModel. Keyed Collection(Of TKey, TValue) bound to a BindingSource, but again TValue would have to implement IComparable to support sorting and we would still not have filter support.So to get all the features I was after, I decided that the best thing would be to create a new generic collection object which implemented IList, IDictionary, IBindingList, and IBindingListView (along with a few others) and would be capable of serving as a simple list, or as a binding source while providing full sorting and filtering over any newable object type.
To that end, I've created the KeyedObjectModel which contains the KeyedBindingList(Of TKey, T) generic collection/binding source. This collection can be used as a typical list, or as a binding source (you do not need an additional BindingSource component between the collection and UI controls, although you could certainly have one).Various constructors are provided in order to initialize an instance of the collection as either an enhanced list-dictionary, or as a complete BindingSource.Any object that has a public constructor which takes no arguments can be used at type {T}, providing that the object has a property of type {TKey} which will contain unique values for each entity in a given collection.If the object implements System.ComponentModel.NotifyPropertyChanged then the collection will also bubble up property changes on the current item to the collection's CurrentItemChanged event.An implementation of IComparable on type {T} is irrelevant because sorting and filtering are performed on the property values of {T} based on the type of the specified property.The current design of KeyedBindingList(Of TKey, T) is in an 'alpha' stage.The class is mostly complete from a feature implementation standpoint, however, the code has not yet been optimized and the base collections of values, keys, and view are being maintianed in generic lists of their own, rather than raw arrays.However, even without performance tuning, the collection appears to be performing quite well, up to a few thousand entries, given the amount of flexibility and funcitonality it provides.At this stage, I would really love to get some peers to try using the compiled DLL and beat up the collection a bit.Once the code has been proven and optimized, I will publish it as an example.It is a fairly complex class though (currently made up of eleven or so partial classes) so I don't really want to post the code until it has been optimized.

I'm trying to make a program that will allow people to queue certain tasks at certain intervals. (i.e. the task is done every 15 minutes, etc.) They can make as many tasks as they want, at whatever intervals they want. How can I possibly make a task queue? Like, how can I queue up code that I already have made to be run every so and so often, according to what the user inputs? And, if 2 tasks are started at the same time, they will both still be done, it's just that one will be done as soon as the first one is complete.

I am using a message queue successfully as I am testing while I am writing a new program. (This is my first time using a message queue.) I have to have multiple instances of my program running, so I was wondering if this would be a problem with the queue? I have tested it and it looks fine, but I didn't know if it is by coincidence, or if the queues were separate.

We have migrated our Vb6 application to VB.NET using a third party tool. Now we are in a process of Refactoring and introducing object oriented concepts in the application.
In VB6, we were using structures in many places. As a part of introducing object oriented programming,
1. is it a good idea of changing all Structures to Classes? or Is there a concept of "Generic Structure" similar to Generic collections, Generic classes?
2. Can some one guide me any source containing guide lines or best practices for applications that are migrated to VB.NET from VB6 and implementing object oriented programmaing.

Consider:
Public MustInherit Class Column
Public ReadOnly Property ReturnSomethingUseful() As Object
Get
'return something useful
[code]....
But this gives the following error:
Public Overrides Function ParseValue(sValue As String) As Boolean'
cannot override 'Public Overridable Function ParseValue(sValue As String) As Object'
because they differ by their return types.
I accept that you can't do this, but I'd like to be able to preserve the semantics of what I'm. trying to do, which is to have an untyped version that deals with Object, but a typed version in derived classes that knows about the specific type T.

I am trying to construct a generic interface class with generic functions. My goal was to use this to implement multiple worker classes for database interaction that have the same basic functionality. Each class will deal with different object for example, category, product or supplier but unless the the functions in the interface are generic that this won't work.This is the interface code that I have but I don't know if I have done it correctly.

I am trying to create a list of a generic type in vb.net 2.0 framework.
This is the generic type definition:
Public Class GenericParamMap(Of T)
Public Sub New(ByVal pParamName As String, ByVal pPropValue As T)
mParamName = pParamName
[Code]....
The compiler does not allow a "T" in the method's parameter because it's not defined, but I'm not sure how or where to define it. I thought it was okay to have a generic method definition.

(Not really sure if I phrased the question correctly...) I want to create a lambda expression that would take an Object, attempt to convert it to a passed-in Type, and print to the console whether it was successful or not. At a glance, the lambda expression may seem a pretty silly way to accomplish this task, but I'd really like to know what I'm doing wrong, so I can better grow my skill set.
VS gives me a designer error about the second "T" in the expression below, telling me it isn't defined) This is where I left off:

I wrote my own database handling code (actually, I write T4 text templating files that generate my database code for me) and part of it takes care of converting values from a database (as Objects) to the desired types.
I have been using this generic function successfully:
vb.net
Public Overridable Function ConvertType(Of T)(value As Object) As T
Try
Return If(value IsNot Nothing AndAlso value <> DBNull.Value, DirectCast(value, T), Nothing)
[Code]....
Simple enough, but it doesn't work... The return type of the function is (and must be) T, so I cannot return a Boolean because a Boolean cannot be converted to T!
Well... It can in this case, because I specifically check that T is Boolean, but the compiler doesn't know this so it doesn't allow me to return a Boolean. I cannot cast the boolean to T either.

I thought that when a variable went out of scope (like a variable declared within a method - when you exit that method the variable is out of scope) then it was eligible for garbage collection and when it was garage collected the Dispose method is called on it. Now I know that it does not get disposed immediately but I assumed it would be basically as soon as the process starts to take up quite a bit of memory.However, I found that my app's memory usage seems to constantly increase when I dont manually Dispose of a specific method local variable. Of course its good practice to call Dispose and ordinarily I would but I just didn't realise that this particular class actually implemented IDisposable. The class in question was the System.DirectoryServices.SearchResultCollection class, and I was looping through the items in it like so:
