Allowing A Class To Be Customized By Other Developers

Sep 12, 2010

UPDATED: Feel like this shouldn't be that complicated, but I think I just don't know the proper name for what I'm trying to do. I'm dealing with an ASP.net project. The concept is pretty simple: I have a library that supplies some ecomm functions. One class in the libary contains functions around calculating tax. One class in the library revolves around the cart header. This class is consumed by a web project.

C# - .NET Developers Less Curious?

Apr 23, 2009

I'm asking this question as someone who works for a company with a 70% to 75% VB.NET developer community. I would say 80% of those developers do not know what an OOD pattern is. I'm wondering if this is the best thing for the health of my company's development efforts?

I'm looking at the tag counts on:

18630 C# questions

.net - Different Startup Forms For Different Developers Using SVN?

Jul 9, 2009

My scenario is such that I have a VB.NET project in SVN and I am using the Application Framework to start the application. This poses a great problem when different developers are working on different forms and they want to have different startup forms. Right now if we change the project settings, its changed for everyone else too. How can we work around this? Can SVN have a class committed into the repository and later changes cannot be committed into it? (more like ignoring a file but with a initial copy in the repo)

C# Book Or Resource For .Net Developers?

Feb 16, 2010

What I'm Not looking for:Now, just to be clear, i'm not looking for VB6 to C#.Net content, as i know there are a few of those out there.Also, I know about that "syntaxconversion table" website, where it compares VB.Net to C# language features in a side by side table. I am not interested in this either, already know about it.I'm also not looking for a converter, which converts C# code to VB.Net and visa versa, i know there are a few websites which do this and already have the addresses.Finally, I'm not looking for a C# book or resource that caters to current programmers, but specifically to VB.Net programmers!

What I Am looking for:To learn C# (VS2008 or preferably VS2010 version) given that i already know VB.Net 10.0 (VS2010)... as there are many things related to .NET that i won't have to learn again if i can find something that will leap me from vb.net to c#, many bits of the CLR, how .NET works etc... since the languages are the same in what they do, and what they use to do them, i don't want to have to re-learn all this again. The only difference is really the syntax, but also how the C# language differs in dealing with certain things, what default expectations/behaviours are in various scenarios etc...

The set of differences and similarities between C# and VB.Net are so unique that neither of these languages likely could share this unique set/combination of differences and similarities with any other language. So my point is, it really needs to be C# for VB Developers oriented, otherwise it'll almost cetainly be inappropriate or a re-hashing!

Twitter Library For .NET Developers?

Aug 26, 2009

after a lot of work and late nights, I finally have something to give back to the VBForums community which has helped me so much.TwitterVB is a library for communicating with Twitter. It's 100% Visual Basic.NET and coded against version 2.0 of the .NET Framework. It is free, and it is open source.

TwitterVB contains a working implementation of OAuth, which allows your application's name to appear in tweets.I hope that this library proves to be useful to VB.NET developers who are looking to develop their own Twitter applications.TwitterVB can be found at http://code.google.com/p/twittervb

If you'd like to see a working implementation of TwitterVB in action, you can look at the Twitter client that I built with it: Quitter. Like TwitterVB, Quitter is 100% Visual Basic.NET. It is also free and open source. Quitter can be found at[URL]..

I am not sure if this is the correct place for this, but am using a custom control in a project that I want all the developers to have access to when they download the source.

Should I just add it to the project like a normal file? If so how do I reference it in the project folder? The other developers project folders might have different paths than mine.

Imperial Leather Is The .NET Developers Soap Of Choice?

Sep 14, 2009

No not of the Simple Object Access Protocol variety, but Soap It seams that Imperial Leather is the .NET developers soap of choice. This means however that we will all smell the same, and will make detecting a fellow developer out in the wild a little more difficult, since you cant smell your own scent. May i also suggest that PEARS Soap is not only far more visually appealing than Imperial Leather, but it actually smells much nicer too. Plus the Queen buys it as well, so just think on that the Royal bottom gets washed with this stuff:what says the masses?

Customized Checked Image?

Mar 24, 2011

At the top of my form, I have a status strip with the common "Window" dropdown that is seem in many commerical and Windows Applications. What I am attempting to do is the same that can be done in VB2010 itself. In Visual Basic, clicking the Window Dropdown allows you to choose which window is active. My whole point on this is that they are using a customized Image.Here is an image example from a program called Paint.NETIn the area of the dropdown, you can clearly see that the "Checked" images are customized. For example, Tools is showing the hammer with the glass button frame over it.What I want to know is how would I achieve this customized image set? I already know I would need at least 2 images, one for checked, one for unchecked.

Create A Customized Dictionary Object?

Aug 11, 2009

I'm attempting to create a customized dictionary object, because I want to add some code to the Add routine, and I can't just inherit because Add is not overridable.

So I'm creating a class that implements IDictionary. Already I am confused, because Dictionary implements a lot of interfaces, listed below:

Implements IDictionary(Of TKey, TValue), ICollection(Of KeyValuePair(Of TKey, TValue)), _
IEnumerable(Of KeyValuePair(Of TKey, TValue)), IDictionary, ICollection, _
IEnumerable, ISerializable, IDeserializationCallback

But IDictionary inherits ICollection and IEnumerable, so why implement all three (and don't they have overlapping methods)?

#2, when I implement IDictionary, the code fills in two Add methods (one for the ICollection add of a keyvaluepair, one for the Idictionary method). Apparently both these add methods are required for Idictionary, yet a regular dictionary (which implements IDictionary) only has one Add method that I can see. I actually would like to have only one Add method if possible. Why am I being asked to make two (and that's before all the other interfaces have been added)?

Missing Customized App Icon On Windows 7

Oct 8, 2010

In my program's properties, I customized my application icon, which I also set on the main form's icon property. If I look in my bin/Release folder or if I run my program I see my customized icon. If I right-click and select Send to -> Desktop on Windows XP, I see a shortcut with my ICON on the desktop. If I do the same thing on Windows 7, I get the default ugly icon. What should I do to get my custom icon on Windows 7 when I make a shortcut from my main EXE?

Read-Only Wrapper For Customized List

Dec 7, 2009

I have created a customized list (by implementing IList) where I added a few special methods. Sometimes (but not always), I only want to expose this list as read-only. To do this for normal lists, I use the Collections.ObjectModel.ReadOnlyCollection wrapper, which works fine typically. But it seems by passing my customized list through this wrapper, my added methods are no longer visible, which defeats the whole purpose of having this customized list object in the first place. How can I create a read-only version of a customized list?

Surpress The Use Of Properties In Customized Control?

Jul 27, 2010

I have created a customized control in which i have used some different property names. For eg. if the actual property name in the base class is "Text", i have used the name "CtlText" by internally implementing the "text" property with some additional checks. Now i want the user to use only "CtlText" property during coding. Currently the user is able to see 2 property with same functionalities.

Is there anyway i can surpress the using of a property during runtime?In design time we can hide it using the "Browsable" attribute, but i need to hide the same during runtime also.
