C# - DebuggerDisplayAttribute - How Does It Choose The Language When Evaluating Expressions

Sep 22, 2009

[URL]From what we can see on MSDN, it says to be careful about which expressions we put as they change from language to language. My question is: what are the supported languages for writing those expressions? If various languages can do it, how does it detect which language is being used?I've made my class in CLI, and coded the expression in c#, being that it works. I've tried in c++/CLI, but that way it doesn't.

Here is my code:

[DebuggerDisplay("z = {ToString()} Norm = {System.Math.Round(Norm,2)} Angle = {System.Math.Round(Angle, 2)}")]

Now, trying it the c++/CLI way:

[DebuggerDisplay("z = {ToString()} Norm = {System::Math::Round(Norm,2)} Angle = {System::Math::Round(Angle, 2)}")]

My assumption is that it will always read the expression as c# code. Is this true?

Best Language To Choose For Development

Jul 18, 2010

Which language, VB.Net or C# is the best language to choose for development right now? Needing users to have the .Net framework is something that I see as a drawback to Vb.NET, but what are the pro's and con's of each language? What can be achieved with one but not the other?

C# - Important Is The Programming Language When Choose A New Job?

Jun 27, 2012

We are currently hiring at the company where I work, and here the codebase is in VB.Net.We are worried that we miss out on a lot of brilliant programmers, who would never ever consider working with VB.Net.

My own background is Java and C#, and I was somewhat sceptical as to whether it would work out with VB, as - to be honest - I didn't care much for VB.

After a month or so, I was completely fluent in VB, and a few months later I discovered to my surprise, that I actually like VB. I still code my free time projects in C# and Boo though.

So my question is firstly, how important is language for you, when you choose a new programming job?

Lets say if its a great company, salary is good, and generally an attractive work-place. Would you say no to the perfect job, if the language wasn't your preferred dialect?VB or C# is one thing, but how about Java or C# etc.Secondly if the best developers won't join your company because of your language or platform, would you consider changing, to get the right people?

New Programming Language To Choose As VB Programmer?

May 31, 2012

I would like to learn a new programming language to be able to compile the same code for different platforms.

My background in programming: VB.NET (I have been using it as my main language for the past 3 years), some Java (to which I couldn't really adapt) and very limited PHP. I use a Mac Book with OS X to code.

I'd like to find a PL with a very easy learning curve from VB.NET, cross-platform IDE and able to compile the same for Windows, Mac and Linux.

I am a beginning programmer, so a object-oriented, .net like language is probably my best bet.

Localization - Menu Strip To Select An Other Language - Doesn't Change My Menustip Text To My Selected Language

Mar 29, 2010

In my winform app in VB.NET I want to use the localization option. But i have a few questions/problems. I'm using a menu strip to select an other language. But it seems that is doesn't change my menustip text to my selected language. It does change my labels, buttons, and textboxes but menu strips don't seem to change when I choose another language. Also is it possible to get those resx files such as MyForm.fr-FR.resx compiled so it isn't an external file outside my app? Or to get those files in an Language folder at the same location of my app, so i don't have all those fr-FR & nl-Nl folders in the same location as my program?

VS 2010 Randomizing - Program Randomly Choose Questions - NEVER Choose Same Question In Same Program

Dec 20, 2011

I am currently working on a family project which is based on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" show. There is a huge diffrence between the show and my project. My project is a christmas edition and the goal is not to get money or something, since I will not add it... Erhmm... Let me get to the point. I have already designed a layout and scripted some things. I have about thirty questions but I do not want them to always spawn in the same array, if you know what I mean. I want the program to randomly choose one of those thirty questions and NEVER choose the same question in the same program run. By the way, there are four options on my project: A, B, C and D. I have got everything, I just need a code.

If / Then Not Evaluating?

So I am trying to evaluate 3 conditions in an if statement. Its not working how I would assume it should. I basically want to do this:vb.net If PGN = &HEF007E And PGNData(0) = &H58 And (PGNData(1) And &H40) = &H40 Then IgnOn = True Else IgnOn = False If I write it in that manner it gives inconsistent results. If I workaround by writing it this way it works perfectly:vb.net If PGN = &HEF007E And PGNData(0) = &H58 Then If (PGNData(1) And &H40) = &H40 Then IgnOn = True Else IgnOn = False

Evaluating A String Expression?

Feb 17, 2010

Does anybody know of a call in vb.net that will evaluate a string expression. For example, how would one evaluate the expression "(1+2)*(3+4)"?I've looked all over and it seems that people are writing their own parsers. There has to be a better way. After all these years, VB.Net must have something that will take an expression and evaluate it.

Dim strMyExpression as string = "(1+2)*(3+4)"
msgbox( VBEvaluate(strMyExpression))

and the result would be 35.Also, when will microsoft start to use google as the search engine for these forums? Bing really sucks. Searching for "Evaluating a string expression in VB.net" gives the most bizarre links.

Evaluating A String Expression At Runtime?

Aug 27, 2009

I have a application that allows the user to enter a series of nested filtering commands. E.g "Name starts with x or ((Description contains y or Property1 is On) and Property2 > 100)"

I can preprocess this and distill it down to a string in the form of an expression of True and False's ie, To "True or ((False or True) and False)" Is there a simple way to have this final expression evaluated without having to write a complex evaluator myself?

I have seen a method of evaluating this by compiling a dummy function at runtime but as I need to process this against possibly thousands of records that solution is too slow.

BTW These are not all fields in a database so I cannot use Queries or SQL etc.

NVelocity Macro Parameter Not Evaluating

Jun 14, 2011

I'm looking to create an inline function (method) inside my NVelocity template. The solution to this appears to be to use Velocimacros. So, I mocked up the following template to test:

#macro( getOutput $one $two $three )
<td>$one</td>
<td>$two.Item2</td>
<td>$three</td>
#end
[Code] .....

When I run the template, the problem I'm having is that the output from the macro parameter $three is literally "$item.Item3" instead of evaluating to #3/3/2003#. (BTW - this happens with any of the 3 items in the tuple if they are passed with the .Item call, so it isn't about the data type). I can make a variable and pass it just fine ($one1). I can pass the tuple itself and call the .Item property inside the macro ($item.Item2), but for some reason I cannot call the .Item property when passing the argument to the macro.

VS 2008 : Evaluating A Poker Hand?

Apr 8, 2009

We are working on a poker game as a class project. My part is to evaluate and then determine the value of a players hand. We are evaluating from highest to lowest (ie. determining whether the player has a straight flush, 4 of a kind, full house, flush and then going all the way down to a high card only "worthless hand"). My part is evaluating the 2 pair, 1 pair, and nothing hands. The hand will be a two-dimensional array with the row(0 thru 12),column (0) containing the numeric "face" value of the cards and the column(1) containing the value assigned to the suite (1=clubs, 2=diamonds,3=hearts,4=spades). I have NO IDEA where to even begin this evaluating procedure.

VS 2008 Evaluating Multiple Possibilities?

Apr 16, 2010

I am making a checkers program and I am in the phase of starting to evaluate jumps. This is what I currently have so far and allow me to fill you in a bit before you look at the code. Checker pieces are white/green. Each checker is created as a label at runtime and in the tag property a struct is held that possesses all of the information reguarding current and previous checker state.

The problem I am having is that as this sub runs each opposing checker is evaluated for jump capabilites which is all fine and dandy. It is even alright that currently if a jump is executed that the same side will continue to evaluate through the sub looking for additional jumps and if they are found they will be made because that is how it is currently coded. What I am trying to do is find a way to evaluate each piece that can jump. So if checker1 can only make one jump and checker2 can make a triple jump checker2 needs to be the guy making the jump and I honestly don't know how do start that. I am forseeing global vars being created to hold information or even a structure and taking the one that changes the most. If two checkers can only make 1 jump then I will rand the one that gets to jump (not looking to win any awards for AI here). Anyhow, any suggestions on how to start this, at least saving the information throughout the sub even if it is called recursively?

C# - LINQ Select Distinct While Evaluating Multiple Rows

Jul 11, 2011

I have an EnumerableRowCollection that looks like the following:
VendorCode | GroupType | Variance
01165 G .16
01165 G .16
01165 CH .16
01165 CH .18
07754 G .25
07754 G .25
07754 G .39

Essentially, this is a massive list of vendor codes, their groups, and price variances. I need to compose a query that will create a distinct list vendor codes and group types. The catch, however, is that I need to evaluate all of the variances associated with that particular VendorCode/GroupType to see if they are all the same - it they are not, I need to return some way of signifying that the group has a "custom" variance, otherwise it needs to return the value (ie: if they are all .16, then return .16, if there are multiple values, return "custom")

The result would look like this, based off of the list I showed above.
VendorCode | GroupType | Variance
01165 G .16
01165 CH custom
07754 G custom

I have no trouble getting a distinct list of VendorCode/GroupType - this is what I have so far:
Dim distinctList = From q In query Select q.VendorCode, q.GroupType, (evaluated q.Variance here?) Distinct
(where "query" is an EnumerableRowCollection(Of (anonymous type)))
I'm at a loss, though, on how to evaluate the variance property to get the result that I need?

Repeat Cards Showing Up In Game And Win Evaluating Code For Poker Game?

Jul 2, 2009

I am working on a poker game and I have the game setup the way I want it in terms of graphics and I have the code programed to deal the cards out exactly how I want them. Granted, the code is very simplistic, but functional for a new programmer like myself. I'm sure there are other more efficient ways to code my game, but I like mine so far because I can at least understand the majority of it. With that being said, here are a few problems and questions that I have.

1. How come when all 12 cards are dealt out I have some cards repeating in the game? For example, I get queen of diamonds in more than one picture box when I only want the card to be dealt once and then removed until the next game.

2. I was hoping to have a button 3 to clear all the boxes, basically resetting the game to the next game. When I hit button 3 it only clears the contents of picturebox 10 and 12.Other notes: I have the deal down the way I want it. It deals the first 10 picture boxes and a second button deals the 11 and 12 picture boxes.

3. I know this is my next step so I want to post it with the code I currently have. I want to start taking my project one step further by evalutating each of the three rows of cards (3 rows of 3 cards each - I'm not worried about the dealers hand (picture box 10, 11, 12 yet). So I want to evaluate a row of pictureboxes against a "pay scale" and display the win in a text box or label next to the 3 card hand. For example, Q of diamonds, Q of Clubs, Q of spades would win 15, etc. ( have a weird feeling I may have to change the names of the cards (I have them named card1, card2, etc. right now) to something that identifies them in order to evaluate the hands.

Here is the code that I currently have. I'm using visual basic.

Public Class Form1
Dim Rndm As New Random
Dim myPB(11) As PictureBox
Dim HiddenCards As New List(Of String)

C# - Use Or Not Lambda Expressions?

Nov 11, 2009

I see lambda expressions have become a very useful tool at some points in the language. I've been using them a lot and most of the time they fit really nice and make the code shorter and perhaps clearer.

Now.. I've seen some , I would say excessive use of them. Some people like them so much that try to use them everywhere they can.. Some times the C# code looks like a functional language. Other factors against are the cost using reflection by lambda and that not friendly to debugging.I would like to hear opinions about how good and how code clear it is to use more or less the lambda expressions. (this is not the better example, but let's say it was the trigger)I was writing the following code. The use of the delegate { return null; } helps me avoid having to ask if the event is null or not every time I have to use it.

public delegate ContactCellInfo.Guest AddGuest();
public event AddGuest GuestRequest = delegate { return null;}

Im using resharper and the wise resharper( even it some times literaly eats the memory) made me the following suggestion

public delegate ContactCellInfo.Guest AddGuest();
public event AddGuest GuestRequest = () => null;

At my point of view the code using the delegate looks clearer. I am not against the Lamdba expression just would like to hear some advices on how and when to use them.

Lambda Expressions In C# Vs. .net?

Jan 20, 2010

Functionally, is there any difference (apart from syntax onbviously) between lambda expressions in C# and VB.Net?EDIT: following up on CraigTP's answer: any references to the situation in .Net 4?EDIT: I'm asking because I'm used to C#, but for a next project the customer asks VB.Net. We're not a priori against that. We realize that most language constructs are supported in both languages. However, we're particularly fond of the way C# implements lambda expressions. We would like to have an overview of the differences with VB.Net

EDIT: accepted CraigTP's answer for pointing out what I currently consider the most important difference.

So to summarize: VB.Net 9 does not support multiline statements in a lambda expression, and a lambda must always return a value. Both of these issues are addressed in VB.Net 10
