dim l as List(of MyClass) = new List(of MyClass) and I want to get the type of the objects contained in the list, how do I do that? The obvious answer, that doesn't seem to be possible from my actual implementation, would be to do something like this...
public function GetType(byval AList as IList(of GenericType)) as System.Type
dim lResult as system.type = nothing
if AList.Count > 0 then lResult = AList(0).GetType
return lResult
end function
But what if the list is empty and I still want to know the type it contains?
am trying trying to write some code for a ComboBox that does the following:
1. Allow the user to enter text into the combo box to type entries contained in the list source.
2. Enable autocomplete to assist the user in selecting entries in the list source, both from dropped down state and non dropped down state.
3. Restrict the user from typing an entry that doesn't exist in the list source.
My requirements are:
1. The ComboBox must run some code after a selection has been made or the user has finished typing an entry (not after the focus has been moved to another control)
2. The code must only run once after the user has made a selection from the combobox or has finished typing an entry
The problem: To achieve the above functionality, I had to run code on numerous event's. Sureley there is a better way, here are the events and the reason for the code:
SelectedIndexChanged:This is the code that is run when the user makes a selection. No Mystery here
KeyDown:
Must Run If e.KeyCode = Keys.Return Then ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(Nothing, Nothing) End If
I'm trying to use the Contains method but it refuses to recognise a like for like object. Both lists can contain the same objects at the time the statement is called at run-time and the if statement still executes at each iteration of the for loop.
Work for instance of type List(of Object) but not for instance of type List(Of List(Of Object). Object is the most generic type in .net so List(of Object) is an Object and the extension shoud work?
I have a datagridview that is bound to a list object of a custom type via a BindingSource. From everything I've read, I should be able to click the column headers and the rows sort, This doesn't happen for me. Sortmode is set to automatic and the column headers aren't set to be used for selection so it should work.
I know that I could sort progamatticly but that seems a little bit of a waste given that I should just be able to do it by default.
I am having some real issues with this one. I have a class which contains two other objects...but I cannot seem to instantiate those sub objects. Here is the code for my class:
I have to make a VB project for one of my college Co-Sci classes. However, I am having issues doing what I think is logically possible. Part of our project entails creating a user defined class, then create a form that then instantiates an instance of the object type. After that we are to list the item in a listbox. That is all well and good and works fine.
What I need help with is looping through each object in the listbox, getting some data from the object, then moving to the next.
I have been trying something similar to c++. For example, an object contained in a c++ array can be accessed like this:
array[index].someObjectMethod().
How would someone do something similar to that for objects contained in a VB listbox? I imagine it starts something like this:
I am writing a class library to interact with a domain Active Directory. In my object model, I have the following: Domain; Organizational Unit; Group; User.
In my Domain object, I have an Entries property and an Add() method. public class Domain { // The ReadOnlyDictionary<TKey, TValue> is a custom wrapper over an IDictionary. public ReadOnlyDictionary<string, IDirectoryEntry> Entries { get; } public void Add(IDirectoryEntry entry) { Entries.Add(entry.Name, entry); [Code] .....
For your information, I implemented the INotifyPropertyChanged interface to ease my life, but I don't seem to find a way to make it work the way I want. Perhaps am I not doing things right somehow, as for the location of different methods, I don't know. How can I make my Domain aware of a change that occured within one of its Entries, so that the TKey value is also changed? That is wanted because one could possibly add an entry, change its name meanwhile adding a new entry with the "old" name of the actual within entry, and cause a conflict, etc. In the end, causing the test to fail. But I'd like to make it pass like it actually is. Is there another better approach or workaround?
I have a question that I really hope someone can shed some light on for me, as this is driving me crazy trying to figure this out. Consider this code..
'declare and allocate Dim lstNumbers As New List(Of Integer) Dim nCount As Integer
I am trying to display a list of databases contained in sqlexpress, in a listview. my current code reads:
[Code]...
This will show up as column headers, but I can't get them to show in only one column so that I can have the user select the database that they would like to work with.
After reading all the examples for list of T exists and Find and find first, none show how to handle multi-property objects. Below is bare bones example maybe someone could flesh out to show how this should be done.
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim DatePriceList As New List(Of DateAndPrice) DatePriceList.Add(New DateAndPrice(Date.Parse("1/1/2000"), 10.12)) DatePriceList.Add(New DateAndPrice(Date.Parse("1/2/2000"), 11.12))
Unable to cast object of type 'DynamicTreeNode' to type 'DynamicTreeNode'.
I have an inherited TreeView with an inherited class called DynamicTreeNode inside it. I am trying to loop through the DynamicTreeNodes in the TreeView.Nodes property which is causing this error.
Limited to using v2.0 of .Net framework (we use VB.net) due to environmental constraints on our servers.I've got an ASP.net webpage which pulls data from a webservice that performs checks on user accounts in active directory. Operators can check multiple accounts at one time using the web interface. The webservice returns a list(of AccountCheck) objects which themselves contain single properties like username, email address, and List(of AccountError) objects which contain multiple properties.[code]What I want to do is using some kind of repeater, create multiple panels or divs which contain labels showing the username, email etc, and a gridview which has the accounterror list bound to it to show all the errors. The users could be checking 2, 5, 7 accounts at once, and is dynamic.
I work with C# 99% of the time. However, I'm having to update some legacy VB.Net code and encountering an issue with VB.Net code syntax. The error that I get is "ByRef" is underlined and "Expected Expression" tag shows up when you hover over "ByRef". The "FooDetail.Load" function is written in C# and expects a List object passed as reference. Don't have any trouble using the same function in other C# classes. Can someone indicate what is wrong with below VB.Net code.
Dim FooDetail As New clsFooDetail() FooDetail.FooID = FooID Dim lstFooDetail As New List(Of clsFooDetail) FooDetail.Load(ConnectionString, "Stored Procedure", ByRef lstFooDetail as System.Collection.List(Of(clsFooDetail))
I am working in VB.net and have a Class, Foo, that implements an interface, IBar.I have a List of Foo's, but I need to pass a list of IBar's into a function, but I keep getting casting errors, even when I use DirectCast.My code is [code]MainWorks works, but it would be really annoying and inefficient to have to do that everywhere I want to call this function.
I've got a piece of code in a project (MyProject) that contains early bound object from a referenced assembly (We'll call it CommonAssembly):
Dim myObject As CommonAssembly.MyEarlyBoundType
now I have another assembly that is dynamically loaded because it is not present in all projects:
Dim myLateBoundObject As Object = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.CreateInstanceAndUnwrap("Utils", "Utils.MyLateBoundType") MyLateBoundType derives from CommonAssembly.MyEarlyBoundType, and I want to cast myObject to myLateBoundObject and then programmatically invoke the additional
I am implementing IMAPI2 into my vb.net project but ran into a wall. I am getting the message Unable to cast object of type 'IMAPI2FS.FsiStreamClass' to type 'IMAPI2.IStream' when trying to start the burn. I googled around and found this is something that microsoft hasn't fixed.. which basically renders IMAPI2 useless in vb.net.
I found a post on codeproject.com by eric hadden who combined the IMAPI2.dll and IMAPI2fs.dll into an c# interop file. I also see the IBURN interop in microsoft SDK samples. I'd like to use either, but it's in c# and I'm using vb express. Does anyone know a way to get the interop into visual basic or a way around "Unable to cast object of type 'IMAPI2FS.FsiStreamClass' to type 'IMAPI2.IStream'"?
I'm having a problem with converting from one source type to a destination type. I have a form with 2 buttons (button 2 uses the OpenFileDialog to have the user open an excel file set to NewFile),(button 1 takes the contents from specific cells in NewFile and arranges them how I need into oXLApp1).
The error I get is "Unable to cast object of type 'System.IO.FileStream' to type 'Excel.Application'." in line 14 of the code below.

I'm new to VB 2005, the code below is actualy coded from VB 6 and just converted it to VB 2005. I'm having trouble with line that's on bold letters.In VB 6 this works just ok. By the way the error message is "Unable to cast object of type 'System.String' to type 'ADODB.Connection'." [code]
Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to class type 'rjsDocMan.Folder'.Instances of types that represent COM components cannot be cast to types that do not represent COM components; however they can be cast to interfaces as long as the underlying COM component supports QueryInterface calls for the IID of the interface.The code where it is flagging the error is:
I saw this thread and I had simple answer in mind. To use custom enumerator class. So I was trying to make one for that guy, which would have one more property to check whether its has reached end or not. It would also provide current position.I'm getting an error "Unable to cast object of type 'SZArrayEnumerator' to type 'WindowsApplication1.myEnumerator'." at the line 6 [see below].However, return type of values.getEnumerator says its IEnumerator.
