Change The Default Modifier From Friend To Private In The Windows Forms Designer In VS 2008?
Jul 2, 2010When I develop a Windows Forms app in Visual Studio using C#, every control that I add to my form is by default marked as private, which is what I want.
When using VB.NET, every control is by default marked as Friend (the equivalent of internal in C#), which is not what I want.
Can I just change this default? It seems like surely it's a setting somewhere.

C# - Access Modifier For Namespace?

Where Is The Friend Access Modifier Intended To Be Used
Mar 21, 2012The only place I've seen the Friend modifier used is in the WinForms designer, as alluded to in Why is the modifier set to Friend in Winforms? and VB.NET: what does the 'friend' modifier do?. The Friend modifier appears to be an almost arbitrarily wide access level that was created to solve some historic architectural problem in VB, I just wonder if anyone has a meaningful continued use for it?
I have had some desires to expose methods only to a given namespace so as to roll the functionalities of a related collection of objects together and manage any of their non-thread-safe methods, while exposing the safe public methods to a wider scope in the same assembly. This access level does not exist yet Friend does. Possibly a corollary question then, is my usage of assemblies and namespaces at odds with what is intended?

View 3 RepliesPassing Data Between Forms Without Any Public Methods Or Properties On The Forms
Dec 28, 2009Passing data between forms without any public methods or properties on the forms. everything but the "Controller" class, which I would like you furnish. I just changed the title from "Intermediate" to "Beginner" This solution is an example of the Observer Pattern. The "Controller" class is the "observed" class, which in this case means it publishes events.
' File Definitions.vb
Public Delegate Sub MessageDelegate(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As MessageEventArgs)
Public Class MessageEventArgs : Inherits EventArgs
Public Message As String
[CODE]...
The program should initially display Form1, and Form2. Clicking of the button on either form will modify the Title Text of both forms. I think that you will find the final end result to be pretty neat, as it works with any number of open forms not just two. I think asking for the Controller class is easier than asking for the code in the forms. My solution for Controller class has 7 lines of content, 9 lines if you include Class, EndClass. A minimal solution could achieved with only 4 lines of content, but it would a textbook example of bad programming.

Winforms - Friend Vs. Public For .net Forms?
Jan 19, 2010Is it better to use friend or public forms in vb.net?

Cant Access Public Variables From Another Form?
Aug 25, 2010I have a string on my main form called String1. When I open another form, I need access to this value. In the form I open, I have always done something like:Dim NewString as String = Main.String1
This has worked in the past. Well, I ended up renaming my forms (from Form1 to Main) in the property window and it now when I type the above code, it does not list Main as a form. Nothing that I renamed seems to exist now.

Use Instance Or Form Name When Addressing Public Variables Between Forms?
Nov 17, 2009In vb.net, you can address a public variable from another form using the form name along with the variable.
form2.show
form2.k = 3
However, if you use a form variable to show an instance of the form, you must use that variable name to address the public variable. Two instances of the same form are displayed in the following example. The public variable k is assigned a value of 3 only in the first instance of the form, the one from form2.show. frm.k can be used to assign a value to the other form.
dim frm as new form2
form2.show
frm.show
form2.k = 3
Assuming only one instance of the form is shown in the application, is it reliable to address a public variable using the form name (form2.k), or is it better to show the form with a form variable and use that to refer to the instance of the form (frm.k)? Would the same answer apply to a property as well as a public variable?
