Handle Case Sensitive Classes And Methods From A C# Web Service In .net App?
Jun 22, 2011
I am working on a VB.Net application that needs to access a web service that I am nearly certain has a C# backend. At bare minimum, the backend is providing classes to me that are differentiated only by case, and within a number of those classes, there are properties and methods that are only differentiated by case.
VB.Net is case insensitive, and it sees a number of these items as being ambiguous.I've thought of a few ways of dealing with this, but I would like suggestions before I go down a road that is likely difficult.
Here are some ways I have considered going about it.Modifying the generated code for the wsdl. This has presented problems in responding as the xml output would no longer conform to the webservice requirements.I think there might be some attributes I could use to override this, but I'm not sure what they are yet. Even so, this web service gets frequent updates and I would hate to have to keep refixing the service every time I refreshed it.Creating a csharp wrapper project where I expose the underlying classes with different names. Primarily through inheritance. Although the big problem here has been the issue with properties and methods that are only differentiated by case as well.
I'm sure at some point I could get one or the other of these solutions working, but if anyone has any better suggestions that I'm not thinking of,

visual basic.net is case insensitive so it allows the coder to write without caring or remembering the casing of variables. it also relieves from the 'undeclared variable' errors if you use the variable in another case than the one used in declaration. The fact that its line termination is a line feed makes it even more readable unlike C# or c++ that need good care in the casing and contineous war with following up with the {}, matching them and figuring out which is for which.
my question is what are the advantages of c# over vb knowing that both get compiled to MSIL so there is almost no performance difference between the two languages?

I was wondering if there was a way to create a parameter for a method in VB.NET 2005, to select which case(upper, lower) to test for.For Example
Function Afunction1 (ByVal aString As String, ByVal case As ......) As Boolean
End Function
Where case is the paramter for the user to set as upper or lower.

I was debugging one of the applications I work on and came across an interesting issue. For those unfamiliar with VB.NET, variable names are case insensitive. Therefore,
Dim foo As Integer
FOO = 5
System.Console.WriteLine(foO)
[Code]....
Variable names in VB.NET are typically case insensitive. The GetProperty method on Type seems to be case sensitive when it comes to the property name. Is there a way to call this method "VB.NET style" and ignore case? Or am I SOL here and need to apply a C# mentality and worry about casing?

I've been using text.indexof() to see if a string is located inside another string, however is it it possible to do a case sensitive/insensitive search option? I've been looking around Google and not having much luck with it.
A huge bonus would be if it could count the number of occurrences inside the string!

I've hit a small issue on a project of mine. I have a comboboxcolumn on a datagridview and the items list has the items ("enabled" "disabled") as the values (stored at design time). When my sql table gets the value "Enabled" or "ENABLED" stored somehow as it's value then I throw a dataerror.
I am trying to avoid this dataerror, I was told to modify the value during the cellformatting event however with my experience the dataerror fires before the formatting. What is the workaround to this behavior? As a textboxcell type the error is not present, it's all because of the case sensitivity of the "items" list on my comboboxcell

Is there anyway to use LIKE operator in VB.NET as case sensitive or insensitive during runtime? For example use a flag to do case sensitive or insensitive comparisons.Obviously this can be done by simple converting them into lower case and forcing application to Option Compare Binary but maybe there is a better way to do this?

I am creating a login form for an application, everything is ok but I have been asked to make the user name and password text boxes case sensitive, by which I mean if a user entered the following
User Name: vbwizzard
Password: youwish
a error message would be shown If the user entered
User Name: VbWizzard
Password: YouWish
The information would match what is in the database and the user would be granted access.I just need help with making the text boxes case sensitive, the rest I am ok with.

I used reflection to get the classes, methods inside an Net assembly. Everything works fine when a function only have one version (not overloaded), but when i get overloaded versions i can't get any version...
I build a simple application with a simple class and added a method with two versions, and i can get the correct version using the GetMethod.I don't know if it's the parameters type, but i can get it work. Example, the sub BASS_Init has 2 versions
BASS_Init(ByVal device As Integer, ByVal freq As Integer, ByVal flags As Un4seen.Bass.BASSInit, ByVal win As System.IntPtr, ByVal clsid As System.Guid)and
BASS_Init(ByVal device As Integer, ByVal freq As Integer, ByVal flags As Un4seen.Bass.BASSInit, ByVal win As System.IntPtr) And one of the next two should work, but none works get nothing every time:

My group is attempting to standardize on XML commenting for all of our classes and methods. We like the "Insert comments" option in VS 2005 but would like to add an additional tag <history> to the comments section. I know that we could probably do this manually each time we add a new class, but I would like to be able to have this new section come up automatically when we insert the comment.

We build a class (i.e. Server) and create a LOAD method that loads a dataset with all the details of that object.We need all that information sometimes... but what about when we only need one piece of data from that object (i.e. webserviceUrl).Should we build classes with a bunch of scalar methods that get back single pieces of data as opposed to only getting ALL the data and then only taking what we need?It's a waste to get all the data when we dont always need all of it but it also will take longer to write the extra methods..

What is the best way to handle a function that might occasional fail to evaluate, but even when it does fail does not require a halt of the parent routine, though sometimes might require an explanation to the user?I have such a function, deep in my code, that returns a number. Codingwise, the simplest approach would be to make the function nullable, and return null when it can't evaluate. That way the calling routine can continue while also knowing the function failed to return a number.
However, depending upon the circumstances, sometimes I want to display the reason for the fail to the user so they know what to fix. Obviously just returning null isn't enough information. Should I be raising messages inside the function itself as it evaluates for anonymous listeners to catch, to be displayed if desired?(For those rightfully pointing out that logic functions shouldn't be responsible for creating user messages, I didn't mean to imply the function generates the full text message, just somehow transmits the reason for the problem so that the UI could later parse that into a message)
The other option I suppose would be throw exceptions inside the function if it can't evaluate, then catch and interpret to user messages if desired. However, as stated the inability to evaluate typically does not signify a halt to the routine, and now I'd have to put a Try...Catch block around the function call everytime I use it.

If I have an ObjectDataSource setup like:
<asp:ObjectDataSource
ID="ObjectDataSource1"
runat="server" [code].....
How do I get the objectdatasource to use the Delete method with the parameter that is not an Employee object? what is the recommended alternative architecture?
Edit:
To clarify, I want to use the method signature on my data/business object as shown above, however if I try to allow an Employee object to be passed into some of the methods using DataObjectTypeName, then I seemingly lose the ability to have some methods take just an integer id for instance.If I do not use the DataObjectTypeName, then I have to place all the method parameters in the ObjectDataSource and change the methods on the data/business object to match, this seems like a bad design choice because as the Employee object changes I will have to update each of these methods.

I'm building a listview search feature in my app. (See the code below). It works really well, except if you search "T" then the code removes all items, if you search "t" then it removes every item except for those starting with "t". Is there any way to make a 'like' statement, or use some kind of wildcard to make the statement not case sensitive?
