I'm trying to build a flexible generic loader. For example when my code loads I need to load country codes and processes to have them available for use throughout my program. I would like to do this in 1 routine. The code below works fine for country but I'm having problems modifying it to also work for Process. Anyone know how I would accomplish?

I have only 2 sets of "fixed" numbers used, that I need to be able to toggle between. Particularly, for array sizes/for loops. Is it best to use "Collections" in VB.NET to accomplish this?

When I build my VB.NET 2008 Express Edition project I get the following error
The designer loader did not provide a root domponent but has not indicated why
I though this meant that I need to put my Acces mdb in the root folder of the project but that didn't help. why I'm getting this error? If I click on more information I get an message saying information not found.
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 have a Journal that records entries for different types: Journal(Of ParentT)

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.

View 2 RepliesI 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.

A particular VB.NET project is actually throwing 'Build Failed' But when I try rebuilding again it says 'Rebuild Succeeded'. It keeps alternating this behavior. Kind of random. Any vbc.exe issue of long locking the PDB or xml files?
View 9 RepliesI have a vb.net 2008 windows form application that I was just assigned to work on. how to maintain and test changes to both the pre build and the post build events? Can you tell me how to test these events? My postbuild event, I believe calls a project file in the solution file that wraps files together in a bundle in debug mode. Can you tell me how the posbuild event works and when it is called?
View 2 RepliesI am using 2008 Express Edition. I am trying to make a Release build instead of a Debug build.Under Tools->Options, Projects and Solutions->General - I checked Show advanced build configurations. The option to switch configurations does not show up in the IDE.
After this, I went to the Project Properties->Compile and switched the Configuration from Active(Debug) to Release.After building, I looked in my project directory, however only in the Debug sub-directory was the .exe and nothing in the Release sub-directory.I have used Visual C++ Express Edition, where I noticed that if you do not change to Release in the IDE than after changing to Release in properties, resets the project to the last configuration setting which is usually Debug.how to make the Debug/Release box available in the IDE, since Tools/Options does not make it show up?
I just created a simple application. I Builded that using build->build myapp. I got .exe of that application. i runned. all went fine. but when i closed that app, even after closing it is in memory. it is still running. how to deploy it properly?

I have some very simple questions about making a release build exe in vb.net using MS VB 2010 Express.
I realize that my project's executable is built in the bin/debug folder. However, when I copy this to any other location on my computer or someone else's, this executable does not function. I have read that I need to create a release build but in MS VB 2010 Express, when I use the Project-Properties menu and change the Compile tab configuration to Release and the path to binRelease, I still get the exe in the binDebug folder and not the binRelease folder.
1) Is it normal that exe's from the debug folder do not function outside of the debug folder?
2) Most importantly, if the release build produces a faster exe, could someone please explain step by step how to do this with MS VB 2010 Express ? I do not see any button on the compile tab in the project properties that actually builds the release.
I have been using a pretty slick generic invoke method for UI updating from background threads. I forget where I copied it from (converted it to VB.NET from C#), but here it is: Public Sub InvokeControl(Of T As Control)(ByVal Control As t, ByVal Action As Action(Of t))

At the moment we're are considering writing a number of .Net web services to export/import data between sites. There are various different types of data involved, relating to multiple database tables. I could write various web services to receive the data being sent, for example
ImportSomeRecord(field1, field2, field3)
ImportSomeRecord2(field1, field2)
ImportSomeRecord3(field1, field2, field3, field4, field5)
and so on...
There could be about 40 of these services, and it's also possible that the fields may change i.e. new fields may be added. The client would be a VB6 application that would call the remote web service, and let that web service update the remote database. The web services will be written in VB.Net 2008.
Would it be advisable to replace all these web services with a single generic service e.g. ImportRecords(recordtype, blobofdata). I think this can be done in theory by just passing an XML string as the blob of data and letting the web service unravel this depending on the record type, but is there actually any advantage to this, and is it good practice to do so? I've read somewhere that passing XML chunks in this way, as a single parameter, isn't recommended, and I can see this also seems to be somewhat contrary to standard web service usage in that in effect I'm bypassing the web service definition.
This is just a Translation question. But how do you write a the following C# code in vb.net My problem is that i don't know how to rewrite the this part of the generic T. C# code i want to translate

In VB.NET when i define a subroutine (or function) , while declaring arguments , a list comes out. Having values ByVal,ByRef,Of,Optional, and ParamArray. Of these five lists , four are better understood except "Of". I searched and found that "Of" is used for Generics .Generic Class or Generic Method.
But i did'nt find any procedure that how to create and use Generic Method in VB.NET. I found same in VB.C# language.
