Is there a simple way in vb.net to mask a public property or method from the internal namespace? It would be helpful as a refactoring tool to isolate internal dependencies and perhaps to enforce a non-recursion policy for external services.

View 18 RepliesThis error first appear to occur randomly. Steps to recreate:Open Visual Studio and load a solution (some files automatically opened) - this is when the problem occurs Close all open files Restart visual studio and load solution (no issues)Open Exactly the same files again, restart visual studio and load solution so files open automatically (problem occurs!)
However, when trying to narrow it down to a single file (that is automatically opened when the solution is loaded), I couldn't reproduce the problem. Now with all the files open again the problem doesn't occur!!! So it looks like it is fixed - though this happened before and eventually the issue came back.
I think it is to do with one of the user controls with DevExpress controls on it - when the error occurs, the designer displays the error. Though I can't reproduce it at the moment to confirm that.

View 3 RepliesVB.NET doesn't have out parameters, but you can specify <Out()> ByRef on COM and P/Invoke methods to get the same effect for external methods.
Does specifying the same on internal methods (i.e. methods only called by .NET code) actually help the Jitter (or VB.NET compiler)? Or is it currently only useful as a programmer note.
Is it possible it could be used in a future Jitter, or is this attribute lost when compiling?
Recently, I have a requirement to develop a vb.net application wherein the input excel sheet data which has an average of 5000 records should be checked for Internal duplicates (duplicates within the same sheet) and external duplicates (duplicates which exist outside this sheet). I have gone through lot of logics..some of which are ...
- Common and currently testing out..
- First insert the excel sheet data into DB..then query by following
select distinct id,mobilenumber from scrubmaster where calltablename=<calltablename given by the uploader>
Then loop for duplicates...
[code]....
The above logic works but it takes very long time..I have tried other logics from web but they "Query timeout"...
I'm using GetDriveType function to determine the drive type.the function works fine, but not with external HDD it returns 3 or "fixed" which confuses me!! is there any way to distinguish between internal (local) fixed HDD and external (USB) HDD?
View 1 RepliesScenario: We have a website that is viewed both internally and externally. When an error occurs the users are displayed with a detailed error page(Stack trace etc). Problem: The external customers do not need that much information about the error. We are looking to have the external customers see a message instead. Ex. Please contact Administrator. Also if possible we would like to log this message in our SQL database.
Note: I'm assuming I make a custom error page like - Implementing a Custom Error page on an ASP.Net website. but how do I determine whether or not the user is internal/external? Also is this the best way to approach the problem?

I have a WPF VB.NET project in Visual Studio 2008. For some reason, Visual Studio thinks that it needs to add anImports MS.Internal.Xaml.Builtinsto every auto-generated XAML partial class (= the nameOfXamlFile.g.vb files), resulting in the following warning:warning BC40056: Namespace or type specified in the Imports 'MS.Internal.Xaml.Builtins' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found. Make sure the namespace or the type is defined and contains at least one public member. Make sure the imported element name doesn't use any aliases.I can remove the Imports line, but, since this is an auto-generated file, it reappears every time that the project is rebuilt.
View 1 RepliesMy issue involves relationships and cascaded effects between properties, and I'm wondering what best practices are on this.I have a class that contains a list of varying length of numbers. When editing the list, sometimes the user prefer to set a TargetSum, so that the program enforces the list will always add to this sum. I am accomplishing this by programmatically setting the final element in the list such that list sum = TargetSum. For example, if the user chooses to UseTargetSum, then sets TargetSum = 10, then creates a list of length 4, and enters 1, 4, 2 for the first 3 elements, then the final element is programmatically fixed to 3. The user cannot change the final element themselves.
I do this behind the scenes by handling all necessary events, such as a list element value change, list length change, and the UseTargetSum option change. For each event trigger, it recalculates the last element's value.It works but then there was a bug when loading saved data. If a list is loaded by sequentially adding the elements, the handlers modify each entry. Regarding the example, when the first value of 1 is entered, the handlers say "a value was just added, the sum should be 10, there is currently only one element, so it needs to be 10". So the first element gets changed to 10 behind the scenes. When the second element is next added, the handlers say "a value of 4 was just added, but the first element is already 10, so it should be zero." At the end of the load, the final list reads 10,0,0,0 instead of 1,4,2,3.
I know it is possible to rearrange the load procedure such that I get the correct list. For instance, I could avoid enabling the TargetSum event handlers until after all the data is loaded. The list would first be created as 1,4,2,3 and then the handlers would change nothing.
But this experience makes me wonder if I am opening the door for other sneaky side effects. It seems you should be able to load data without worrying too much about an implicit ordering. It also seems unusual to have "cascading" effects between class properties. Is there a more accepted approach?
The other alternative I'm considering is to only enforce TargetSum only inside UI forms. Ie, when you know it's a user making the change, then enforce the TargetSum, but otherwise leave the core class logic alone.That way database loads, etc, are left unaffected. But I guess the downside of not having ubiquitous enforcement is that opens the door of incorrect sums via some unforeseen complication.
I have a number of very useful extension methods that I'd like to use in my Silverlight project.I've pasted the Module here [URL]The problem I'm having is that visual studio complains that the dlls my module have been written against have not been built against the Silverlight runtime.Is there an easy way to get these extension methods working in Silverlight?I'm thinking my main hurdle is getting IObjectSet and ObjectContext to run against the Silverlight run-time - perhaps there's another way to expose these methods that I'm not aware of.

I have a class definition that I've seen other define properties that return collections of objects.

View 2 RepliesI've created a class library and built a dll (release build). I've then referenced the DLL in another project (I've tried several). I can see the namespace and classes in Object Browser and I can declare instances of the classes but I cannot use or see any of the methods or properties! there is no IntelliSense whatsoever and calling the methods manualy results in a 'Declaration expected' error.
Within the class library solution I have a unit test project referencing the class library project which works all works fine (and all the tests pass).

but it does not give the sample code for creating a user control with properties, events, methods
complete to create windows user control? that includes creating properties, events, methods? and if it has how to create web user controls better

nextturns out, and I should have realized, methods and properties of controls are not exposed when treated this way. The only thing that can be seen is the stuff that the base class (control, I guess) has.

View 3 RepliesI am writing my first class-library in VB.NET. My idea is to distribute this library so others may use it in their applications.However, perhaps due to my lack of experience in writing and structuring the library and the classes therein, I noted that the methods/properties are ALL being shown in the IntelliSense of Visual Studio.
The thing is that many of them are only used within the library itself and should NOT be used by the developers (could create a disaster) when they incorporate my library in their application - only a few should be visibile i.e. the ones which are needed by the developer.Thus, my question is: is there a way to hide certain methods/properties of my library from Visual Studio's IntelliSense? Maybe something similar to REM?
EDIT: as mentioned - this is my first library and I now understand that my question could be intepreted in two ways:
1) how to hide something from IntelliSense
2) how to prevent a developer from using and calling certain methods/properties
Of course, the end-result that I want is that the developer is not able to access AT ALL certain methods/properties i.e. No. 2 above.
