Most Concise Way To Handle / Is Nothing / Empty String Check?

Apr 1, 2011

What is the best way to checkt o see if the TelephoneNumber property has some string in it that does not Trim down to an empty string? I hate to use the Trim VB.NET function on Nothing just to give me an empty string whenever the TelephoneNumber is Nothing. [code] What puzzles me is that the "IsNullOrEmpty" function works as an extension method of a string instance even if the String is NOTHING. Why does this extension method work but the follow straight - .NET code raise an exception? [code]

Check Object's Property For Null Or Empty String?

Jul 28, 2009

I'm using FileHelper to generate object's property. Here is an example of one property:

<FieldOptional(), _
FieldTrim(TrimMode.Both)> _
<FieldNullValue(GetType(String), " ")> _
Public StoreNo As String

As you can see the StoreNo will either have a value or " ", one of the business policy is to check if the StoreNo is empty or nothing if the object's StoreNo is empty or null then the record will not create.

I though about creating an HasValue Function in the class to check the StoreNo and other properties in the object but I feel like it is a hack.

Public Function HasValue() As Boolean
Dim _HasValue As Boolean = True
If StringHelper.IsNullOrBlank(Me.StoreNo) Then

[Code]....

I don't think this approach is an ideal solution. what if the StoreNo is remove or change to something else. What's the best approach to check object's property?

Nothing Equals String.Empty, Null Does Not Equal String.Empty?

Jun 28, 2010

This must've have been asked before but I couldn't locate it. In a mixed code project (VB and C#) we were debugging some old Visual Basic code where a statement as follows could be found:

If Request.Params("xxx") <> "" Then
'do something

I considered this a bug as Request.Params could be null, in which case the statement would've become false which wasn't the idea. So I thought. I just found out, -- probably for the tenth time and I will keep forgetting -- that the following two statements are not equal, while Nothing in VB should be equal to null in C# (thought I):

if(String.Empty == null) // always false
If String.Empty = Nothing Then ' always true

Should I dismiss this as a typical Microsoft backward compatibility effort, or should I consider this a huge error in the VB.NET compiler? Does anybody know the Microsoftean opinion on this oddity?

Nunit Assertion For An Empty Intersection Between Collection

Dec 21, 2010

I have a list of user names (we'll call 'original list') one object is returning. I have a list of user names (we'll call 'filtration list') another object is returning. I am testing a method that returns all of the items from the original list not in the filtration list. Ideally what I want is something like:

Assert.That(returnedList, Has.No.Members.In(filtrationList))

So far the only thing I can do is iterate over the filtrationList and do

Assert.That(returnedList, Has.None.EqualTo(filteredUser))

TreeView.nodes Sometimes Returns An Empty Node Collection?

Jul 1, 2009

treeView control which has been plaguing me for the last few days.

I'm not exactly sure what is causing this problem to arise, so I will just explain what my program is trying to do.

I am building an application which will have plugin support. I have created a Plugin interface, which is implemented by each plugin, as well as a host interface, which is implemented only by the host application.

Each plugin has an Action subroutine, and when finished, it is supposed to call the ExecutionComplete subroutine in the host interface.

Now, onto the problem. I have a treeView on the host form, which has several nodes in it. If I create a button on the form which displays a message box with treeView.nodes.count, it shows up fine, and everything works as expected. If I attempt to display the same messagebox from the ExecutionComplete subroutine, it also gives the correct number of nodes.

This is where things get a little weird. I have implemented a save feature into my program, so you can save and load data. For some weird reason, if you have loaded the data from a file, rather than adding each node manually, it now returns an empty node collection ONLY if I try to access it from ExecutionComplete. If I try to access the nodes from a button, it still returns the correct values!

What could it possibly be about the ExecutionComplete subroutine that makes it return a value any different than what is returned when the exact same code is placed in a button click event? And why does it only happen when I've loaded the data from a file? I just don't understand how loading it from a file is any different than them adding the nodes manually. The nodes are definitely being added, as I can see them, and the button click event can also see them. Also, ExecutionComplete is obviously able to read the contents of the treeView, because it works just fine if the user has set up the treeView manually.
