Enums - .NET Enumeration Representation?
Apr 16, 2010Is it guaranteed that the numeric values for an Enum with only uninitialized values start at zero and increment by one in the order defined?

IDE :: IntelliSense Doesn't Display Certain Enumeration Values In A .NET Project If Enumeration Is Declared Within A C# Assembly
May 28, 2010I have just received an interesting feedback from a VB.NET customer using our product - for some reason intellisense hidden a certain enumeration value.After a small testing I have found that this is likely a bug in IntelliSense: [URL]..To be honest, I did not expect this problem with such a basic stuff like this. Have you seen this in the past? For me, it doesn't work in all VS versions...
Anyway, feel free to track this issue if you are coding in VB.NET.
Enums Error In Vb, How Is It Different From Enums In C#
Aug 3, 2011I thought that enums in VB and C# where the same or at least very similar. Then today I stumbled across a bug in our VB code. The following VB code compiles and runs with no issues:
Enum Cars
Subaru
Volvo
End Enum
[code]....
Why does the VB version not catch the type mismatch? Are enum in VB and C# different?

C# - Stackoverflow .net Language Representation?
Jun 27, 2012[URL]notice that the tag topic count for C# is in excess of 8900 while the vb.net tag topic count is sitting at 1019. Does this mean that there is a shift towards c# as a .net language of choice. the only reason I decided to build some applications for work using c# was that I like curly braces - after all vb has the same language support as c#, doesn't it so there should be no advantage to choosing one over the other; other than curly braces;)

Differences Between Enums In C#?
Jan 14, 2010We have legacy character codes that we want to store as numbers in a new system. To increase readibility and general understanding in the code for devs making the migration, I want to do Enums like this..
[Code]...
With this setup, the code will be readable (imagine If Record.Status = Status.Open), and yet the values will be stored in the database as small numbers so it will be efficient. However... I am a VB.NET guy, but everybody wants to code in C#, so I need this sort of structure in C#.After Googling, I discovered the the general .NET equivalent of AscW is Convert.ToInt32("C"). When I try to use that statement in an enum, I get the compiler error "Constant Expression Required".
Enums Via Markup In .NET?
Oct 4, 2011I have an enum and a usercontrol, both in the same assembly (a plain .NET 4 web site). In the Constants class:public Enum CrudOperations Add Edit Delete. This controls the columns in a GridView on a UserControl via a property on the UserControl
[Code]...
In C#, I've specified the columns to show with markup as Mode="Edit,Delete", but in VB.NET, this does nothing. The only way I can get anything to show is with the codebehind, but if on the containing page I use userGrid.Mode = CrudOperations.Edit And CrudOperations.Delete, I get all the columns (there's also a delete column), but userGrid.Mode = CrudOperations.Edit Or CrudOperations.Delete shows nothing.
Using Enums With INotifyPropertyChanged?
Mar 10, 2011I have a public property, "Status" that is an enum. I have a setter method that changes the status and raises the PropertyChanged event. However, the WinForms user interface is not properly updating. I'm pretty sure it's because Status is an enum. Although I was thinking enum was a reference type but I guess it's a value type. Does INotifyPropertyChanged work the same with reference and value types?

Converting String To Its Single Representation?
Feb 15, 2010I am trying to convert a string to a single. Ive tried csng() directcast() and single.parse. The first two methods crash. Single.parse says input string was in incorrect format. The number is 777.7932 so should convert fine. Ive tried it this way:
'x = single.parse(pts(0), globalization.NumberStyles.AllowDecimalPoint)
how can i convert a string representation of a single data type that is read from a text file into its single data type. I checked control panel and globalization settings are set to english.

View 1 Replies'Enums.NoticeType' Is Not Defined
Nov 25, 2008I work for a web hosting company and was handed a VB script which I apparently have to compile with some updated settings by 1 of our clients who knows less about it than I do. But when trying to compile the code I receive an error "'Enums.NoticeType' is not defined". As expected I haven't a clue. Am I missing some of the code, or do I have to add some libraries in my Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition? I have pasted the line of code below. If requested I can provide the whole script.
Code:
Public Function UpdateNotices(ByVal intNoticeID As Integer,
ByVal strNoticeTitle As String, ByVal dtDateFrom As Date, ByVal dtDateTo
As Date, ByVal intTypeID As Enums.NoticeType, ByVal boolPrimaryItem As
Boolean, ByVal boolActive As Boolean) As Int32
.net - Using VB Interfaces, Enums, Etc In C# Code?
Oct 20, 2011I have a solution with multiple projects, some of the projects are written in VB, some in C#. I am wondering if there's a way to use interfaces and/or enums written in VB in C# classes? My C# code below doesn't compile, however I am able to see the interface in intellisense.
[Code]...
P.S It's a console/service application, not ASP.Net (where I know it's doable).UPD: Sorry guys, was missing a reference to the project with the interface. It's fixed now. I think the thing that in VB projects references are done slightly different than in C# confused me.

C# - Iterate All Public Enums?
Nov 22, 2010We have a common component in our source which contains all the enums (approx 300!) for a very large application.Is there any way, using either C# or VB.NET, to iterate through all of them in order to perform an action on each one?
How to iterate all "public string" properties in a .net class is almost relevant but the enums I am dealing with are a mix of types.
C# - Use Flag-based .NET Enums From Lua?
Feb 16, 2012I'm using LuaInterface for .NET to create Windows Forms objects. This works pretty good except for one thing:I want to use the Anchor property of Control to make them resize automatically. If I only set one of the Anchors (e.g. only AnchorStyles.Top), it works, but this doesn't really make sense. I have to set more than one Anchor, which is done by combining them with "bit-wise or" (or by just adding them numerically).
In VB.Net both works:
Dim myLabel As New Label()
myLabel.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Top[code]....
which is in a sense correct as "LuaInterface treats enumeration values as ο¬elds of the corresponding enumeration typ" (says LuaInterface: Scripting the .NET CLR with Lua).It is also not possible to assign the value as a number:
myLabel.Anchor = 15 -- 15 = 8 + 4 + 2 + 1 = Top+Left+Right+Bottom
This time, the error message is rather unspecific:
LuaInterface.LuaException: function
Is there a possibility to typecast the number to the correct enumeration type in Lua?

View 7 RepliesUsing Enums In Project Settings?
Mar 10, 2009I want to add a setting that uses an enum defined in form1.vb. All the research I've done suggests support for enum type settings is built-in and handled automatically by the VS IDE ...

VS 2010 : Using Strings In Enums?

It seems like you can only use integers for the underlying values.

Handling Integer Representation Of True And False
Aug 6, 2009While testing some code i found something strange how vb.net (2005) is handling integer representation of true and false (or yes and no). Or at least i dont understand the reason for this.Im used to C or Java where 0 is false and everything else is true. To get to the point, here is the code: [code] And the out put is:X: 1 Y: 2x is truey is truex and y is false.If x and y or both individually true, why does it return false when you evaluate x And y.However, change the values of x and y to 4 and 5 you get this:X: 4 Y: 5x is truey is truex and y is trueJust another example, which seems to work how it should to me:X: 4 Y: 0x is truey is falsex and y is false.

Jun 3, 2011I want to make a hashtable of object references and I want a different object's reference to be the key. How can I do this in vb.net?

Direct Access To Full String Representation Of Object
Jan 23, 2012I am trying to log the contents of an object to a text file. If I do a debug.print of the object itself in the immediate window, it prints all of the values of the object's properties:
?mDb.DatabaseOptions
{Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.DatabaseOptions}
AnsiNullDefault: False
...
UserData: Nothing
However, I can't seem to access this as a string in code due to a type mismatch. I assumed I could get this information using the .ToString method, but all that returns is the object description with none of the properties or values:
?mDb.DatabaseOptions.ToString
"Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.DatabaseOptions"
