Failure To Infer Type From Anonymous Method?

Jan 24, 2011

(using VB 08!) In order to avoid "magic strings", I have used this handy method (not my own!) many times to get a property's name as a string:

Function GetPropertyName(Of T, R)(ByVal expression As
Linq.Expressions.Expression(Of Func(Of T, R))) As
String

Generics - What Does .Net For Each Loop Look At To Infer The Type

Apr 6, 2012

In the following code,

For Each item in MyCollection
...
Next

What does the compiler use to determine the type of item?For example let say I have this class, which is inheriting a non generic collection,

Public Class BaseDataObjectGenericCollection(Of T)
Inherits BaseDataObjectCollection
End Class

A for each loop still infers the Item type as Object. How would I have to modify the above class to make the type inference work?

Edit: Per Beatles1692's answer, Implementing IEnumerator(Of T) kinda works. The base class already has a GetEnumerator function, inherited from CollectionBase, so I my implementation looked like this,

Public Function GetEnumerator1() As System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerator(Of T) Implements System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable(Of T).GetEnumerator
Return MyBase.Cast(Of T)().GetEnumerator
End Function

However, the for loop still infers the type as object. But, if I change the interface implementation to this,

Public Shadows Function GetEnumerator() As System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerator(Of T) Implements System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable(Of T).GetEnumerator
Return MyBase.Cast(Of T)().GetEnumerator
End Function

That works, the for loop gets the type inference correct. So I guess the question is now, does For Each just look for a function called GetEnumerator ?

How would you convert this to VB (using .NET 4.0 / VS2010) ?

bw.DoWork += (o, args) =>

I thought maybe like this:

AddHandler bw.DoWork,
Function(o, args)[code]....

But it says Function does not return a value on all code paths.

C# - Anonymous Method Alternative For Design Pattern?

Apr 18, 2012

With C# anonymous delegates, we can avoid declaration of extra method, I know in VB.NET they're not available, but is there a design pattern that I can use so that I can avoid writing an extra method each time?

.net LINQ Xml Query - Anonymous Type?

Oct 22, 2009

I'm out of my depth populating a windows form from an XML linq query (see code further down in post). The listbox is populated as intended, when a value is selected (row) I would like to populate the remaining form controls. The linq query I believe has created a new datatype "Anonymous Types". The query is only local to the load form subroutine but I'm not sure how to make it global.

When I define the query simply as an object the code in the selectedValueChanged event can't execute due to late databinding. how I can initially load the listbox from linq xml query and then populate the other controls when the value changes? Am I right in thinking even though the listbox is multi-columns (property) you can ONLY ever reference a row and NOT a column? I'm new to LINQ and Anonymous Types and the more I read the more confused I seem to get. On a less important note the order by is not functioning as intended (no errors) but data is always retrieved in xml file order and not by the node <text>. Also looked at using <text>.first to order the results without success.

ASP.NET MVC - Linq Query With Count Returns Anonymous Type - How To Display In View

For Each c In assSummary
MsgBox(c.Description & " " & c.AssCount)
Next
