I have an XElement that I need to create via dynamic xml literals/embedded expressions and I need it to inherit the default namespace. This doesn't appear possible though through everything I've tried. how to make this work?
For example

Sub CreateXAML()

I'm experimenting with xml literals in vb.net and there's something I don't get. Here's a small sample that illustrates the problem. I'm adding two PropertyGroup nodes to an empty Visual Studio project. The first one is added as xml literal, the second as new XElement:
Imports <xmlns="[URL]">
Module MyModule
Sub Main()
Dim vbproj = <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Project ToolsVersion="4.0" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="[URL]">
[Code] .....
This code writes the following output:
<Project ToolsVersion="4.0" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="[URL]">
<PropertyGroup xmlns="[URL]"></PropertyGroup>
<PropertyGroup />
</Project>
As you can see, the first PropertyGroup node contains a redundant xmlns declaration. Why is that, and can it be avoided?

View 1 RepliesI've wrote a class library in vb. it only has a class called MathEx. Now when i add a reference to a test project, i had to refer to the class as MathEx.MathEx is there anyway i could refer to the class as simply MathEx?

View 1 RepliesI have a VB Web Site project that has recently (and mysteriously) stopped importing the "System" namespace by default.
I'm having to either place an Imports System line at the top of each code behind, or preface everything with System, which is fairly annoying, not to mention redundant. I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the System namespace back to being imported by default.
I've already checked to see that WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727CONFIGweb.config contains the <add namespace="System"/> line--it does. That was my best lead.
I have references to several namespaces within the System namespace in the <assemblies> node (e.g. System.Design, System.Web.Extensions of my website's web.config. There is no <namespaces> node. This has not been changed recently.
Is that possible to create a class in vb.net that is not in the default namespace of the project?
for example, say you have a project call sample1, then automatially IDE will have everything default to the Sample1 as your namespace root rather than under global, which is find for most case.but I want to create some classes that is directly under global namespace

View 2 RepliesThis 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?)?

If it's possible, it would be a lifesaver since I can't use XElement and XAttribute to add the nodes manually. We have multiple templates and they frequently change (edit on the fly).
If this is not doable, can you think of another way so that I can use templates for the XML?

View 13 RepliesI'm using the following function to brighten up color values (it's a lambda in my code, but that shouldn't make a differende):
Function ReduceDistanceTo255(ByVal i As Byte) As Byte
Return i + (255 - i) 2
End Function
It won't compile, since the compiler interprets 255 and 2 as integers rather than bytes, making the result of type Integer. Unfortunately, there is no Byte type character, so I cannot just write 255B or something like that.There are a few obvious workarounds to the problem:
Function ReduceDistanceTo255(ByVal i As Byte) As Byte
Return i + (CByte(255) - i) CByte(2)
End Function
and
Function ReduceDistanceTo255(ByVal i As Byte) As Byte
Return CByte(i + (255 - i) 2)
End Function
[code]....
The first one is just plain ugly and hard to read, because every literal needs to be CByted. The second one performs calculations in integers and then converts the result to Byte, which is OK, but not as elegant as a pure-Byte operation. The third workaround doesn't require CBytes, but it's drawbacks are obvious.
In VB.NET I can easily embed strings into XML literals using <xml><%= "my string" %></xml>. How can I embed an XElement instance? I know I can use methods on the XElement, XNode, etc classes, but I'd like to do it in the XML literals if possible.

I'm trying to use the builtin XML literals feature to create/read xml files using my own schemas, but I don't see a way to cast an abstract XElement from a base type to a more derived type.The schema/xml below shows in general what I'm working with, but using XML literals only allows me to use the base type in the IDE, so the xml below is treated as a collection of elements of the base type, instead one of the base type and one of the derived type.

But the compiler is complaining about the quotes that are supposed to surround the attribute value. I tried using single quotes, two double quotes, nothing works.
My problem is that I want to include control structures in the embedded XML. Specifically, I want to include or exclude an entire element (not just its contents) based on a boolean expression. The question extends to other control structures as well though.
I'd expect the <% %> syntax to support inling of code but that doesn't seem to function in VB.net's implementation (as opposed to the <%= %> for inlining the result of an evaluated expression, which does).
Here's some very simple code by way of example only.
Public Class Foo
Private bar As String = Nothing
Private baz As String = Nothing

I'd much prefer to use the format of getXMLBad() if possible. In this short example it doesn't seem critical, but in much larger examples, the inlining of the logic is more readable and maintainable than the "assembly" style in getXML(). This especially true when the logic is in the middle of large block of static XML and when coding to a very strict or complex schemas.I'd be interested in the capability to extend this to Looping constructs as well.
