Access Private Constants In Class Attributes?
Sep 27, 2011
I have an API that I created and currently utilize successfully in C#. I am trying to create an example of interacting with the API in VB.NET (so that the QA without C# experience can still utilize it for creating automated tests).
In C# I do the following
[TestingForm(FormName= "Land Lines", CaseType= _caseType
, Application= ApplicationNameCodes.WinRDECode, HasActions= true)]
public class LandLines : RDEMainForm
[Code]....
This gives me a compile time error because it claims that FORM_NAME and CASE_TYPE is not defined, even though the class has it defined inside.
How can I use the defined constants inside the class in the class attributes?

Is it possible to set a variable in my custom class for Private Read/Write access and Public Readonly access without creating Properties with Get and Set? In other words, from within my class I want full access and from my form I only want read access. Right now I declare my variable as either Private or Public to control Public read/write access. I tried googling my question a bit but I'm not sure what the correct terms even ar

Trying to understand the best way to do this and I'm can't get it figured. Here's basically what I have:
Public Class CardParsingClass
Private iAcctIDStart as integer
Private iAcctIDLength as integer
[code]....
I've only included 2 of the class level fields here but there are actually 30, so that's why I was hoping to be able to send the name of the field to set and the value to set it at in the SetValue function. So in some other routine in the program I'd like to be able to issue the following call:
SetValue("iAcctIDStart", "3")
But then when I get into the SetValue routine, I'm not sure how to proceed. I thought about a case statement that would basically be this:
select Case strFieldToSet
case "iAcctIDStart"
iAcctIDStart = cint(strValue)
[code]....

I have a class in VB with some constants that represent the string name of my security roles. I need to be able to call a function to return to me a string array(or collection, or whatever) of the values of each of these constants. I will be using it to make sure that my databases Roles table has the same roles as coded into the application.
[Code]...
I'm looking to run a function, i.e. ClassConstantsToStringArray(gettype(Roles)) that will return to me "Administrator","Basic User","Power User" I'm know reflection is the way to go, I just don't know enough about using it yet to get what I want. I found a function on the net that would return to me the constant names in a FieldInfo array but still don't have enough smarts to make that work for me.

I have a base class, with a const giving its name. If I inherit that class, how can I override the const to give the name of the new class?E.g. (and I know this won't compile!)
Public MustInherit Class BaseClass
Const ClassName="BaseClass"
Public Sub DisplayName
MsgBox(ClassName)
[code]....
What I want is for class One to display its own name, not that of the base class.

I have two list boxes that have a list in each and each one has a constant. I am trying to add the selections that are made together and output the total in a third label. I am stuck at this point and am not sure how to proceed, it is entirely possible that i am doing it wrong. Would someone please have a look at this and let me know what the next step would be or if there is a different wayof doing it than I am.[code]...

How can we apply attributes to class fucntion using AOP in C#?I am slightly not clear in what context AOP should be used? As we can use AOP for logging purpose, security(Authentication), please suggest some other scenarios where we can take benefit of AOP.Is AOP can be use to share data among different running threads in application process?

I want to invoke a method on a class that i have a reference to. The method that I want to call has a custom attributes. Currently I can find this attributes and call the property of my class Attribute.
is there a way to invoke that method ?
PS/ The project is written in vbnet, but I think the solution is the same in c#.

I'm just curious why class/property attributes in VB.NET have a weird optional syntax such as:
<TestAttr("a", "abc", Optional1:="foo", Optional2:=3)>
VB.NET allows you to set optional parameters like this to avoid order restrictions (which is lovely) but in this case it's forcing you to that.For example this is not possible:
<TestAttr("a", "abc", "foo", 3)>
even though the parameters are in the same order as the original definition.

I usually use which is free, works a little too well, it's obfuscating the code that passes between my scripting class and the other classes, so after obfuscating the app, the scripting functions no longer work.However I found another obfuscator called Skater lite which is a free edition, it will only obfuscate private classes and members, so what I would like to do if possible is make most of my classes private and their members (except for the scripting class, which should allow it to work properly after being obfuscated), and somehow still use them globally, declaring an instance of the class doesn't seem to work, I'm not even sure it's possible and I know little about the scope of private classes, so anyone got any ideas or workarounds?

I am trying to retrieve the Attributes of a class's property specifically. So for example. Let's say I have a class called "Employee", and a custom attribute called CustomLabelAttribute with a string value. What would I need to do to retrieve the value of CustomLabelAttribute for Employee.FirstName specifically? I assume I will need to use reflection, but it's kind of new to me, and I've just recently started using it on any level.

I need to access a list of attributes as follows.I'm drawing a curve named "CurveName". With Curvename I need to access the curve color, the data symbol etc.I tried this:
Dim cllCurveAtt as new cllCurveAtt
sub SetAtt
cllCurveAtt.Add(CurveName, "Color.Red")
......
end sub
If I then want to refer to the curve color through cllCurveAtt(CurveName) I get an error because "Color.Red" is not a system color, it should be Color.Red without the quotes. But if I remove the quotes in the assignment THAT causes an error because since CurveName is a string, that color thing should also be convertable to a string. Catch 22.

I want to retrieve private (implementation and other) methods of a class which implements an interface and also is derived from (inherits) a base class.How can I achieve this using reflection?This is wat m tryin to do. I need to view these private methods and their contents, I don't want to invoke them.
Dim assembly As System.Reflection.Assembly
Dim assemblyName As String assemblyName = System.IO.Path.GetFullPath("xyz.dll")
assembly = System.Reflection.Assembly.LoadFile(assemblyName)
assembly.GetType("myClass").Getmethods(Bindings.NonPublic)
assembly.GetType("myClass").GetMethods(BindingFlags.NonPublic) isn't working

I'm relatively new to .NET and am wondering how people handle naming their private variables and the public properties that access them. Like if you want to be able to just read it, but not write to it.
[Code]...
So far I've taken to putting a 'l' (for local) in front of the all the private variables so as to be able to use the full name for the property. Is there a better way around this, or do you just always have to have different names for private variable/public properties? If so, what sort of conventions do people use?
Its not a huge deal, its just a minor annoyance and I was wondering if I was missing something.

what websites, books or courses you guys suggest to use so I learn the fundamentals of programming. What is a class, method, namespace, private vs public. That leads me into .Net programming. A lot of intro to programming use java or C++ as the platform but I want to find one with VB.net or maybe C# if.

I come from ROBLOX. Anyway, whats wrong with with code, it's in a button.
ProgressBar1.Value = "100"
if ProgressBar1.Value = "100" then
Me.Close()
I do realize it's missing all of the Private Sub, and end class stuff... This is just the main body of code.

I am trying to write some unit tests on a class that looks like this, using Moq [code] the parameterized constructor is private or internal one of the two methods relies on the result of the other.I want to check that when GetThisOrThat is called with a value, it actually calls GetThis. But I also want to mock GetThis so that it returns a specific well-known value.To me this is an example of Partial Mocking, where we create a Mock based on a class, passing the parameters for the constructor. The problem here is that there is no public constructor, and therefore, Moq can not call it..I tried using the Accessors generated by Visual Studio for MSTest, and use those accessors for the mocking, and this is what I came up with [code]

I have created a synchronized queue and am using SyncLock on the SyncRoot property of that queue when I invoke the Enqueue/Dequeue methods. The methods are invoked from instances of standard producer/consumer classes.Is that a proper use of the SyncRoot property?
Would it be better practice to create a private shared object in each class and lock on that instead?

I am trying to implement transactions across multiple TableAdapters in VB.NET (using Visual Studio 2010) by extending the partial class as described in the following examples:

However, when I attempt to expose any of the private fields created by the designer they are underlined in the editor with the following error:
'_adapter' is not declared. It may be inaccessible due to its protection
