I'm developing a vb.net program with VS2008. In my case, dt_list is a instance member as List(of Single). When I wrote dt_list = CType(ser2.Deserialize(r), dt_list.GetType()) VS2008 complains about "Type 'dt_list.GetType()' is not defined.".
View 2 RepliesIs there a way to make a VB based ASP.NET project reference a particular DLL based on the solution in which the project is added?More detailed explanation: I have a solution (which I've inherited) that contains multiple projects, being a mixture of ASP.NET in VB.NET and DLL's in C#.It's running under the .NET 2.0 framework, but being built in the VS2008 IDE.ach one of our customers has a full copy of every single project, with their individual requirements built into those files... but what I'm doing now is creating a "single code base" ASP.NET project which relies on a customer specific DLL beingreferenced So each customer still has their own individual solution, but the ASP.NET project is always the same.However, every time I switch to a different customer, I'm having to remove the reference and add the correct one.
I could have individual vbproj for each client, but then it defeats the object of the "single code base" when I add/remove pages. I've looked into MSBuild - but it's a complex beast, and I'm having difficulty working out if it can do what I need it to do I've managed to set up "conditions" based on a property, but I cannot work out how to use a property from a different project or the solution itself (I don't think it's possible)

I'm converting some C# code to vb, and (having had some help from the community here already) have encountered another problem. [code] SurveyQ is a class I'm referring to. Converting the type doesn't seem to work. I've figured that I can't use "=" when converting types and have got this as far as: [code] but I now get errors on the GetType(SurveyQ) part, with the error "Keyword does not name a type".

I'm trying register presenters with Windsor using the convention based method but trying to do this in VB.NET, but the problem is it does not want to compile this statement:
Dim type = GetType(AbstractPresenter(Of))
I am getting : Too few type arguments to AbstractPresenter(Of TView, TPresenter)
Which I don't understand because this is a valid statement according to question. Also showing valid in other C# to VB.NET converters when converting typeof(AbstractPresenter<>).
The "GetType" method returns a type so why does VS flag the "DirectCast" statement as invalid?
Sub Main()
Dim d As C = New C
d.Value = 5
Dim o As Object = d

I'm supplying the fully qualified name of the class as a string, I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. Here is what I am doing:Type.GetType("The.Name.Space.TheClassName")That is the fully qualified name of the class, it works fine for import statements.

The code below works for the class that I hard coded "XCCustomers" in my RetrieveIDandName method where I use CType. However, I would like to be able to pass in various classes and property names to get the integer and string LIST returned. For example, in my code below, I would like to also pass in "XCEmployees" to my RetrieveIDandName method. I feel so close... I was hoping someone knew how to use CType where I can pass in the class name as a string variable.
Note, all the other examples I have seen and tried fail because we are using Option Strict On which disallows late binding. That is why I need to use CType.I also studied the "Activator.CreateInstance" code examples to try to get the class reference instance by string name but I was unable to get CType to work with that.When I use obj.GetType.Name or obj.GetType.FullName in place of the "XCCustomers" in CType(obj, XCCustomers)(i)I get the error "Type 'obj.GetType.Name' is not defined" or "Type 'obj.GetType.FullName' is not defined"

View 1 RepliesI have a program written in VB.Net (Visual Studio 2008) that uses a DLL written in Visual C++ by another developer. I'd like to be able to step in to the C++ code as my code makes calls to methods in the DLL. Since the DLL is it's own solution, I don't think it can be included in my solution/project. I tried putting the DLLs pdb file in the debug/bin directory with the rest of my build and pdb files. However, when I get to the point in stepping through my code, and it gets to the dll call, it just steps right over the dll code. Do I have to manually load symbols?

But I need to run it within Visual Basic. I know it's possible to call .exe files with Shell() or Process.Start(), and it works well for files such as firefox.exe or notepad.exe.
However, it doesn't work when I call my own .exe file ... It's weird because when I look to the Task Manager while trying to call it (within VB), I can see the process starting and ending, but its output doesn't appear.

In the VB6 interface, when you went to Project>References, it would list all the references that have already been added to the project with a ticked box next to the name. However in VS2008, when you go to Project>Add references, the tickboxes are not there. So how do you know whether or not a reference has already been added?
