Data Objects Implement An Interface IFillable?
Jan 19, 2011
All my data objects implement an interface IFillable
Public Interface IFillable
Sub Fill(ByVal Datareader As Data.IDataReader)
End Interface
In the objects themselves you will typically see something like
Public Class Supplier
Implements IFillable
[Code]...
Now here is the tricky bit. Given that all my property names WILL ALWAYS match my database column names what I want to do is using reflection generate the fill method at compile time and infer the types and column names for the datareader.I am assuming I will need to structure this functionality as some sort of a tool/vs plugin? What I am looking for is guidance on the best way to go about this.
PS: BTW: Obviously I could easily do this using reflection at runtime but I dont want to take the performance hit for it (Although theoretically if I could cache the values somehow (static class?) it might not be too bad).

I am new to .Net Programming and would like to know if Reflection is suitable for traversing an Object to discover Collections within an instance of a class. I am working with the Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo Namespace.
The plan is to connect to a database, determine what collections exists, then for each of those collections, if the Collection exposes objects which implement the IScriptable Interface, generate a script for the object.How do i do the following (This is pseudo-code as I am seeking assistance with using reflection or some other method to do the following)

I have a situation where I am defining an interface and then using that directly eg:Dim x as IWhatever = new implementationOfIWhatever()Which is fine, butmplementationOfIWhatever also implements IDispoable so I want to be able to do x.Dispose or ideally Using x but get the error that that this is not declared or must implement IDispoable as IWhatever of course doesn't define Dispose or implement IDispoable

is it possible to implement strategy pattern with different parameters in VB.net? For example I have the following code:
Public Interface InterfaceDataManipulation
Sub updateMyData()
End Interface
How to implemente updateMyData in the class that implements above interface class with different parameter,for example in class x :
Public Class X
Implements InterfaceDataManipulation
Public Sub updateMyData(ByVal x as String)[code]......
But the IDE raises an error "class x must implement updateMyData on interface InterfaceDataManipulation"

I am a C# programmer but I have to work with some VB.Net code and I came across a situation where I have two methods on an interface with the same name but different method parameters. When I attempt to implement this interface in a class, VB.Net requires explicitly declaring "Implements MethodName" after the method signature. Since both method names are identical, this is confusing the compiler. Is there a way to get around this sort of problem? I suspect this must be a common occurrence. Any thoughts?
N.B. This was more a case of the programmer not verifying that the interface in question had not changed from underneath him.

i may be misunderstanding this but on MSDN i believe it says that it is good practice to implement the Dispose destructor in every class you write. should i (do you) really implement the IDisposable interface with every class i write? also, is the proper syntax for implementing an interface to put the "Implements" keyword on the line after the "class" declaration? i put it on the same line as "class" and I got an error.when coding the method implemented by the interface, is it mandatory to follow this syntax, as an example: Public Sub Dispose() Implements System. IDisposable. Dispose.

We have a web service solution in VB .Net 2005 that we have started getting an error in. We provide an interface like the following:
Public Interface IBatchTrackerService
Function InsertBatchTracker(ByVal BatchTrackerObject As BatchTracker, ByRef errorNum As Integer, ByRef errorMsg As String) As Integer
End Interface
In our class we implement this interface with the following code.
Public Class BatchTrackerService
Implements IBatchTrackerService
[code]....
This code was working properly but has now started causing errors. The error we receive is:
Class 'BatchTrackerService' must implement 'Function InsertBatchTracker(BatchTrackerObject As BusinessObjects.BatchTracker, ByRef errorNum As Integer, ByRef errorMsg As String) As Integer' for interface 'IBatchTrackerService'.
The odd thing is that the project compiles correctly, but shows many of these errors after the compile is finished.We recently installed Panda as our virus protection which caused a different error that I found the solution here for.
Updated 4/21/2009 at 11:50 Both the interface and the implementation are within the same project in the solution.
Updated 4/22/2009 at 08:16 I tried removing the BusinessObjects identifier from in front of the BatchTracker type but I still get the same thing. This is just one example of what has happened throughout the entire solution. Every implementation in this BatchTrackerService is flagged as an error, plus there are several other services that have almost every implementation flagged as an error as well. But somehow the project builds successfully, and yes, it runs properly!As for BusinessObjects, it contains many of the classes we use as parameters and it is simply another project within this solution. We do not reference any external assemblies to provide these classes to BusinessObjects.
Updated 4/22/2009 at 08:24 The last thing I noticed was that any function/procedure that doesn't use a 'BusinessObjects' class as a parameter, but simply uses strings, integers, etc is not flagged as an error.
Updated 4/22/2009 at 09:50 I tried reverting back to a previous version and I was able to compile and the error count stayed at zero. I narrowed it down to a check-in of one of the project files where the reference to BusinessObjects was slightly changed. I reverted just this project file and everything compiles fine now.

Recently I needed to compare a suggested pattern for IDisposable and object finalization with the auto-generated one we which VS2005/VB.NET provide. We have used the auto-generated one a fair bit, but after looking it the two side by side I had a number of questions about the VB.NET implementation..
[Code]...
Overall I am confused by the supposed added value of having an extended code-path that executes when Dispose() is called explicitly(as opposed to having a common path that is executed regardless of whether or not Dispose() was called explicitly). how it does anything other than delay the actual release of managed resources if Dispose() isn't called directly. In essence it seems to only work to make the managed resources unreachable in the object graph, orphaning them until the 2nd GC run rather than freeing them at a point where they are known to be no longer needed.

I have started using BindingList(Of T) for my generic collections whenever I need the objects to interface with the GUI instead of List(Of T). This has worked well for me so far but a few of my collections are stored in Dictionary(Of TKey, TValue) and there doesn't appear to be a corresponding BindingDictionary(Of T).
Has anyone else come across the necessity to use this, and how did they achieve it? Should I implement this myself? (How?) or is there a better solution already available?

I'm having trouble porting some .NET2-era C# to .NET2-era VB.NET. Specifically, I am trying to define an interface that an ASP.NET user control will implement.(For background, I am trying to re-implement Phil Haack's Model-View-Presenter example from several years ago: http://haacked.com/archive/2006/08/09/ASP.NETSupervisingControllerModelViewPresenterFromSchematicToUnitTestsToCode.aspx)
The C# interface I'm working from defines properties and events (IsPostBack, Load) that are already implemented by the base control.However, VB.NET is forcing me to explicitly implement these properties/events in the user control (Public Property IsPostBack() As Boolean Implements IView.IsPostBack...). I'd like to just define these in the interface and not have to do anything special in the code-behind of the implementing user control.I'm assuming that I can do this in VB.NET, I just don't know how. I've spent all sorts of time googling/bing-ing, and haven't come up with the answer.

I have an object (MyObj) that itself will hold a List of other objects of various types and I want to count them as they are added to MyObj.That's the simple explanation, anyways...I have an Interface (MyInterface) that all sub-objects agree to. MyObj has a List(Of MyInterface) property that all the sub-objects are added to. MyInterface will expose a property that lets me figure out what subtype each object is (the sub-objects do not inherit from MyObj at all).
But I want to count these sub-objects as they are added to the list, and I'm trying to find a good way to do it. I don't need to worry about decrementing the count, as I am going to mimic the behavior of String and just create a new instance of MyObj if it ever changes, so all my counts will start from 0. This'll hit the garbage collector a bit, but I think this will allow for simpler (and safer) code. The only sane way I can think of to count objects is a very large structure in MyObj that uses bytes to hold the count (I will never have more than 255 of any given sub-object in the list in MyObj). But, even using bytes, this structure will be about 100-200 bytes big in memory (I have that many sub-objects), and I anticipate having a fair amount of MyObj copies running around, too.
I'll also need a large Select Case to know which count property to increment when a new sub-object is added. This seems to be a bit ugly, though I've used this approach several times already.What I am wondering is, instead of counting each object as it is added to the list, is there some way to query the list and count only the objects of a specific type? I wouldn't need to store this anywhere, since it would be dynamic, like querying a database and asking for a count of a specific column or type of record.I suspect Linq can do this, but Linq is also quite slow. Are there other approaches? Perhaps a predicate of some kind?VB (I am not a C# guy):
From i in MyObj.MyList Group i by i.GetType into g Let c as Int32 = g.Count() And that's it so far. I am still googling, but I am getting way too many C# and SQL references.

Im considering making my own command line interface with custom commands etc. I was thinking the following objects would be sufficient:
Textbox - for input
Rich text box - for showing processes and output
Button - to insert input
If it can be done, how can I provide line breaks in the output on the rich textbox e.g.
line1: input instruction
Line2: <cp><textfile.txt>
Line3: I/O error, file not found, check file root.
My version of CLI will have no integration with the windows CMD.

I need to let the end user move and resize objects (like a textbox or button). There are several examples that demonstrate this in VB, but not in VB Express 2008, based upon VB.net.It looks like earlier you needed to access Windows API, but these calls does not work in VB.net. I understand that these call are replaced by "native" .net calls, but I cannot find any that does the job.
A typial example from old VB is:
Private Declare Function GetWindowLong Lib "user32" Alias "GetWindowLongA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal nIndex As Long) As Long
This does not work in VB.net.
