Declaring Any Variables At All In A .Net Form?
Oct 6, 2011
I have just been experimenting with nesting classes within a User class I had already created.
E.g.
Friend Class User
[Number of Properties...]
Friend Class Address
[code]....
I get the same error message!!! "Declaration expected". Also I notice the variable's name is not coming up in intellisense. I have not come across this before as declaring an using variables and objects has been straight forward up until now.

Does the memory used in declaring variables are reclaimed by the OS when these variables go out of scope?Does the memory used be released by setting thier value to nothing? if not, then how can I force the garbage collector to run or excecute at a certain/desired time..How about in Windows Forms..How can we make sure that the memory used in initializing and showing forms be released if those forms were closed?

I actually came from VB6 and starting to learn VB.NET. I saw this line of code which I cannot understand how it works nor how it goes.
Private MAX_VALUE As Integer = (1 << 14)

The user clicks a button, a new form is generated where the user enters his/her password? How can I keep an in-memory copy of the username?
For instance in web forms, I can just use Session ("User"). How can I replicate this with winforms?

I've created a 30 point wizard. Every step gathers between 1 and 3 variables. I've created a module and publicly declared the variables there. At the end of the wizard, one master form opens, gets all the variables, and displays them on one form. At this point calculations are run too which populates more variables. This works fine for one instance of the process.
the user may want to be running two instances of the wizard at once. Obviously, if the previous wizard is part complete and they start a new one, the variables are going to get crossed or replaced by the new wizard.Is there a way for the variables to be declared publicly but used in multiple instances?

What's the proper way to declare variables in a class? I've been doing something like:
'in a class
public shared teststring As String = "first"
'on a code behind
[Code]....
with shared variables loading a second window or reloading the page (without clicking the button) renders the hello world string. so how do I declare variables in a class but make it per instance?

When I am writing a sub or function that does some calculations etc. I often need a loop or a integer variable to count.
An example:
''' <summary>
''' Compare elements with the new data and perform all necessary actions.
''' </summary>
[Code]....
As you can see, variables like timespan, nullCount and seconds are declared within this sub.
My question is, is it better to declare these in the class? I can imagine that would boost performance.

Sub Application_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
Dim chatters As List(Of Chatter) = New List(Of Chatter) chatters.Add(New Chatter(New Guid("CD863C27-2CEE-45fd-A2E0-A69E62B816B9"), "Me")) chatters.Add(New Chatter(Guid.NewGuid, "Juan")) chatters.Add(New Chatter(Guid.NewGuid, "Joe")) Application.Add("Chatters", chatters)
[code]....
I am unable to understand last 3 lines that are bold and underlined. Please what is hppening here. Chatter and Chat are two classes defined in App_Code folder. Is there any sight that contains all possible ways to declare and initilaze variables and data structure:
Dim chatters As List(Of Chatter) = New List(Of Chatter)

I need to write a simpe calc. program to add, mutiply, subtract and divide. I want to have two textboxes that I enter numbers in and when I click a button, +,-,/ or * a third text box will display the result.Rather than declaring my variables inside each instance of a click event I would like to declare them globally so I just need to perfom the calculation on them and display result. However declaring them globally doesn't work for me. I;ve tried the variables inside the btnAdd click event which works, but as I said I'd prefer to declare them onece globally.
Public Class Form1
Dim number1 As Double = CDbl(txtNum1.Text)
Dim number2 As Double = CDbl(txtNum2.Text)[code]...

Now it is complaining to change to the following is this the right way:
Public ghtAllAppMsgs As New System.Collections.Hashtable(300)
This is under global.vb class file: here are the imports i already had in this file:
Imports Microsoft.Web.UI.WebControls

I am new to Visual Studio.NET but very familiar with the old ASP (using DreamWeaver).I am unfamiliar with this system of having seperate files for VB code and HTML, in my Visual Studio project I have a Default.aspx file and a Default.aspx.vb file. Now I want to declare a variable that will be accesible to all my functions on the Default.aspx.vb file. I.e. if a user clicks on one button and it launches a Protected Sub called Button1_Click, I want that button to be able to read or write to that variable and then if a user clicks on another button, I want it to likewise be able to read and write to that variable.So where should these variables be dimmed?
At the top of the aspx.vb file? Before or after the line that says "Partial Class _Default"?Or at the top of the aspx file? (Within <% %> brackets?)

Is it possible for a class of exposing a type for function returns, without allowing users of that class to create variables of that type? A couple usage scenarios:A Fluent interface on a large class; a statement like "foo=bar.WithX(5).WithY(9).WithZ(19);" would be inefficient if it had to create three new instances of the class, but could be much more efficient if the WithX could create one instance, and the other statements could simply use it.A class may wish to support a statement like "foo[19].x = 9;" even when foo itself isn't an array, and does not hold the data in class instances that can be exposed to the public; one way to do that is to have foo[19] return a struct which holds a reference to 'foo' and the value '19', and has a member property 'x' which could call "foo.SetXValue(19, 9);" Such a struct could have a conversion operator to convert itself to the "apparent" type of foo[19].In both of these scenarios, storing the value returned by a method or property into a variable and then using it more than once would cause strange behavior. It would be desirable if the designer of the class exposing such methods or properties could ensure that callers wouldn't be able to use them more than once. Is there any practical way to accomplish that?In formulating a question, it's difficult sometimes to draw the line between complicated usage cases, and simpler usage cases which aren't quite so important. Here's another usage case, and one closer to the one I'd be most interested in (though I'm also interested in Fluent chaining; being able to have something behave like a C++ reference to a value type would be nice, but probably too much work to bother with).I have a type which is somewhat like the Windows registry, in that it is a hierarchical collection of items, each of which may have a string value, an integer value, and/or a nested collection of items. I wish to be able to support the following types of usage:[code]As for the Fluent interface, my thought would be to have the WithXXX properties return a new instance of a derived class which shadows (not overrides!) the WithXXX properties with versions that simply modify the current instance. The return object from WithXXX would be known to be of the derived class, and would thus use the shadowed WithXXX methods, but once it was assigned to a variable, it would be regarded as an instance of the base class, so the next WithXXX would create a new instance.
C++ a stronger concept of value types than C# or vb.net, including the very useful concept of references to value types; it ensures that references to value types cannot be persisted outside the scope of the type in question. Unsafe code in C# can use pointers to value types, but they don't have the protections offered by C++ references.

I'm wondering about the performance differences between imports and inherits in a .net app.I currently program by creating multiple classes that logically define my objects. e.g. a class for customers, users and product.When i want to use these classes in a page i have to import them eg. "Imports Custmomers" and then later in my code i have to create a variable and datatype it before i can use the sub routines and functions from class.I understand from a coding perspective this keeps it all neat and tidy.So my question Would it be not better to combine all my classes into a base class, inherit that base class, rather than import it, when i want to use it and so cut down on the extra declarations and associated code that come from importing a class; and if i did this would it aid performance?

I have multiple forms and have multiple declarations that I need for all the forms, is there a better way than declaring them each time on each form? Can a .dll do this, if so does it require the .dll to be a seperate file than the final .exe file. Or is there someway to reference the variables on other forms?

What is the impact of creating variables using:
Dim ds as New DataSet
ds = GetActualData()
where GetActualData() also creates a New DataSet and returns it? Does the original empty DataSet that was 'New'ed just get left in the Heap?
What if this kind of code was in many places? Would that affect the ASP.NET process and cause it to recycle sooner?

I have declared this variable in a module : Public GenericForm As System.Windows.Forms.Form
and then through code I can asign to that variable a specific form .For example GenericForm = Form1. Then I can use that variable to handle that specific form , for example :
GenericForm.Show
My problem begins when I want to handle a control on that form , for example :
GenericForm.TextBox1.Text = "aaa"
This code creates an error reading :TextBox1 is not a member of System.Windows.Forms.Form.I have been using code like this in VB6 and was quite useful ,but now in VB .NET I cannot .You see I have many forms on which there are some text boxes with the same name,so I declare a generic variable as Form and accordingly insert the code the desired text box conform the form I wish each time . Can I do this in VB .NET too ?

I am building a generic search form in my application. This will allow the user to search for various records throughout the application. The one thing I cannot seem to figure out is how to allow the declaration of the TableAdapter to change at run-time. Each part of the app will be passing a variable to the search form to specify which table should be loaded. In the form class I have the following:
FRIEND WITHEVENTS tbaSearchData AS database.databaseTableAdapters.TableOneTableAdapter This is great for TableOne. But, I have about a hundred tables that could be searched through. To load the data I'm using a DataGridView and populating it via a private method.

When working with a collection of forms that the user must step through, is it better to pass the data foward when creating a new instance of that form, or is it better to call a function from the previous form? I have some code written that calls the previous routine, and it looks ugly, and I can't quite think of a reason why it was done that way. The only reason I could come up with was if the data was large, and there was a good chance that the user wouldn't use the data except in a special case.

I am using Visual Basic 2008 for this assignment. I have a project that I am working on and I need to be able to use form variables across the entire project.
I have looked on other forums but no definitive answers.iI have declared variables as such Public StrV21true As String and "Public StrV21False As String
Now apon assigning a string to the variable with an If Then Else Command, I go to the next form expecting that the assigned variable will be available for use in this second form but to my dismay it tells me that the variable has not been declared and will not even show up in Intellesence. Like I said before from research on the net I am using the public class in Form 1 to hold the variables and am kind of expecting the public class variables to be available through all the forms in the project. I would really like to know how to do this so as I can finish my project for class.

I've got a form in my MDI container. Lets call it Form1. I now want to show a dialog box (Form2) and pass the primary key from Form1 to Form2. Do i create a public function on Form2 called SetMe() or Do I create a public on Form1 And read from it? From a best Practice point of view, How would you go about it?

I am passing 2 variables from form1 to form2. In form2 I want it to where it will filter my dataset according to the variables in form1, before it's displayed. In form1 it works, but when passing those values (JT & WRID1) to form2, it doesn't work.
Form1:
Public Class Form1
Friend JT, WRID1 As String
Private Sub ShowForm2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ShowForm2.Click
JT = Me.dgvWLog.Rows(dgvWLog.CurrentRow.Index).Cells("dgvJT").Value.ToString
WRID1 = Me.dgvWLog.Rows(dgvWLog.CurrentRow.Index).Cells("dgvWRD1").Value.ToString
End Sub
End Class
Form2:
Dim s As New Form1
Dim JT As String = s.JT
Dim WRID1 As String = s.WRID1
Me.DataSet.Form2_Get.DefaultView.RowFilter = "WT = '" & JT & "' And WRID1 = '" & WRID1 & "'"

CurrentMode doesn't have a value. I don't know why. CurrentMode is a global variable.
