I have an extension method written in visual basic as follows:
Imports System.Runtime.CompilerServices
Namespace Parsing
...
Public Module CSVParse
[code]....
Unfortunately the compiler is giving a 'Cannot resolve symbol' error for 'DoVB()' and highlighting it red.Yet it will recognise the call in a static fashion.
CSVParse.DoVB(test);
How would i go about checking a file extention to see if it is either
'.exe' or '.ex_'
What i need to be able to do is that if the extention of the file is '.ex_' then that file is copied to another folder, or if the file extention is '.exe' then it is passed onto another routine that will compress is.
Baring in mind that there could be a number of files in that folder.
I already have a routine that will compress the files, just need the above.
The following LINQ query resp. call of the extension method Select in Visual Basic 2010 is working fine:
Dim qAvSalary = qJobData.Select(Function(e) e.AvSalary) But doing so I am not able to specify the name of property I want the query (e.g. AvSalary) using a string variable. This should be possible if I use a LINQ expression tree. Searching and trying a long time on how to translate the query to a corresponding expression tree was not successful. My final approach is:

Why would I use an extension method instead of just creating non-extension sub or function?
For ex, I could have an extension function called IsNullOrEmptyOrAllSpaces on String, which does a check as its name implies. Or I can write a stand alone function that does the same thing. Other than having the extension show up in Intellisense, is there any advantage? Is a call to the extension quicker/more efficient than a call to a regular function?
I saw this post and I want to know if this is possible in VB. So like extension method, do extension properties exists in VB.Net? Here I've read they do, but cannot find any examples.

vb
<System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Extension()> _
Public Sub Invert(ByVal b As Bitmap)
is there any way of hiding this from inteli-sense if it is not used as an extension?so that pressing ctl+space only triggers it if you go "bitmap.Inve.." rather than prompting on "Inve..."?
I am using VB 08 running an openfiledialogue wanting to get the result of the GDS file (*.gds) to be the default extension at the drop down menu instead of All file when the openfiledialogue box opens.
I coded it with:
OpenFileDialogue.Filter = "GDS File(*.gds)|*.gds|All files|*.*"
but the results i get in the open file dialogue box remains as all files being in the drop down menu as the default file extension. How to i set it to ".gds" format?
I connected to the Informix server using RazorSQL, created a stored procedure and tested it, getting the expected answer, so the procedure exists in the database in some form.
I then run the following code:

cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure

This error does not occur when calling the stored procedure from a live SQL connection.
I want to create an ExpressionTree where a Func(of Vector, Vector, Vector, Vector, Double, Double, Vektor) should be called. So I use
Expression.Call(Forces(0).Function.Method, {Vec1, Vec2, Vec3, Vec4, Double1, Double2})(Vec1-4, Double1-2 are declared as ParameterExpression and Forces(0).Function as Func(of Vector, Vector, Vector, Vector, Double, Double, Vector). But I get an AgrumentException, because Forces(0).Function.Method has seven Arguments. (System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Closure as seventh argument at Index 0).
I am trying to convert a DLL function call which has the Callback function routine called within the DLL function call.The DLL function call signature is like this:
typedef void *HANDLE;
typedef HANDLE HACQDESC;

how to convert this DLL call to VB.NET and also how to create the callback function and send it as parameter to this function
call.
Using the below code I want to set the '*' to any file. This folder (C:ewtemp) will only have one TIF file in it at a time so I want it to use that file as TextBox1, but that filename is dynamic, but always with extension .TIF.

ewtemp" * ".TIF"))
Know how to do that?
I am having problems with CodeDomProvider. When I compile a code VB, there is not an error. But, if this code has extensions (ex: string().contains(), char().count, char().AsEnumerable, etc.) at the moment that I call these functions, it's returns an exception equal for all these extensions:
'Public Member 'Count' at type 'Char()' not found'
'Public Member 'Contains' at type 'String()' not found'
Dim refs() As String =

These are the Assembly that is referenced to the compile, and this is also configurated for run in Framework 4.0.
Dim Param As New Dictionary(Of String, String)
Param.Add("CompilerVersion", "v4.0")
Dim oCodeProvider = CodeDomProvider.CreateProvider("VisualBasic", Param)
This code is inside a string:
Imports System
Imports System.Xml
Imports System.Data
[CODE]...
After I use it for compile my Assembly. The code compiles without errors, but when I call the function 'ProcessarLink', it returns me the exception in 'Contains', or when I call the function 'Personalizar' the errors appears with the 'Count'. This happens with the others extensions too, like AsEnumerable, etc.

View 2 RepliesI have a need to create a Tcl extension that calls a managed .NET DLL/Class Library. Currently, the structure of my application is Tcl > DLL Wrapper (C++ CLR) > .NET Class Library (VB.NET), where ">" represents a function call.
My VB.NET DLL just takes a value and returns it back, keeping it simple for now. In the end, this will do some more advanced stuff that makes use of some .NET functionality.
Public Class TestClass
Public Function TestFunction(ByVal param As Integer) As Integer
Return param
End Function
End Class
My Tcl Extension (C++ CLR) creates an object of the type above
int TestCmd(ClientData data, Tcl_Interp *interp, int objc, Tcl_Obj *CONST objv[])
{
// Check the number of arguments
[code].....
If my VB.NET DLL is in the same directory as my extension DLL, the extension crashes when it instantiates a TestClass object. I've noticed if the VB.NET DLL is relocated to C:Tclin, the extension will find it, and TestCmd can be called just fine. The problem is that this will eventually need to be deployed across a number of PCs, and it's preferred not to mingle my application's files with another application's.
I want more customization then the original VS 2010 set up files. So i decided to code everything. For example, i put all my files in my debug folder into my installer.vb's My.Resources. So i usedSystem.IO.File.WriteAllText ---> to install all my files and the .exe one.Everything was installed it except my Ethup Bolt New Build.exe. It shows up in the folder after installation, but when i click on it, it didnt run at all. (It showed up in the task manger, under process, but it disappeared after like 5secs.) So it didnt
run at all. My question is how do i install my .exe properly. ( I DONT WANT TO USE THE ORIGINAL INSTALLER WITH Visual Studio)
How would i get the size of the file and the Extension with a .(Dot) if it has little tiny bytes or etc and put it into a listview in columns.

I'm making a program where I'm separating the file path and the file extension. The path will be held in one list box and the extension in the other.Right now all I'm trying to to is get the extension since once i have that, i can just take away the extension from the whole string (once i know what it is) and then add that to the other listbox.
VB.NET
With OpenFileDialog1
.FileName = vbNullString
.Multiselect = True
[code]...
The place in that code where I'm trying the get only the extensions is:
"Name_and_Ext.ListBox2.Items.Add(IO.Path.GetExtension(OpenFileDialog1.ToString))"
That code only works if you have one item selected and since my openfiledialog has multiselect enabled, it needs to be able to do however many are selected.
I would like to know your opinion on extension methods. Sure, it is a nice feature and makes you feel powerful. It's great to see your own method pop up when typing in a object. But it doesn't really add something new... You can get the job done with normal methods as well. I think extension methods do not belong in object oriented programming. It makes your code easier to read but harder to understand for someone else.

Apparently, it's not safe to use the .Net framework < 4 to write a shell extension.
As my users are likely to not have that version of the framework, I'd rather use a third-party solution so I can write the main app in .Net 2 or 3.
Can someone recommend an add-on for this, either open-source or affordable?
