View 12 RepliesI want to group items from a linq query under a header, so that for each header I have a list of objects that match the header title. I assumed the solution would be to use ToDictionary to convert the objects, but this allows only one object per "group" (or dictionary key). I assumed I could create the dictionary of type (String, List Of()), but I can't figure out how to write it. As an example I have written a simplified version below.
[Code]...
I have the following object:
countDictionary As Dictionary(of Category, Dictionary(of Date, Integer))
The Class has a Enumeration Property. For the purposes of demonstration, I'll call it MasterCategory.I have been trying to get out an object that looks like the following:
groupedCountDictionary As Dictionary(of MasterCategory, Dictionary(of Date, Integer)
The best result I could get was:
Lookup(of MasterCategory, Dictionary(of Date, Integer))
From:
countDictionary.ToLookup(Function(o) o.Key.MasterCategory, Function(o) o.Value)
Which results in a IEnumerable (Of Dictionary(of Date, Integer)) for each MasterCategory value.However, I need that IEnumerable of Dictionary flattened to one dictionary with all the integers summed (total counts) for each date. I then tried to use various selects and group bys (from numerous stackoverflow posts) to "flatten" it, but my efforts have fallen short.
Current Code
[Category Class]
- MasterCategory As Enum
- Name As String etc

I need to order a Dictionary in VB.net based off of the keys. The keys and values are all strings. The dictionary does not have a .Sort(). Is there a way to do this without having to write my own sorting algorithm?
View 3 Repliesi was searching for a simple solution that i can use in sorting a dictionary by value, and i was not content with what i found, so i made up these two functions for sorting a dictionary ascending and descending. I do not assume that they are perfect, so improvements are welcomed. They are written in VB.Net and use an intermediary dictionary.
Public Function SortDictionaryAsc(ByVal dict As Dictionary(Of Long, Decimal)) As Dictionary(Of Long, Decimal)
Dim final As New Dictionary(Of Long, Decimal)

I have a dictionary in VB.Net
Dim fileDetailsDictionary As New Dictionary(Of String, Dictionary(Of String, String))
In the Value of fileDetailsDictionary , I have 3 keys
key1, key2, key3
I want to sort the whole dictionary by Key3
I have a dictionary with the keys being integer and the values being string. I was wondering how can I sort the dictionary in DESCENDING order using its keys.
View 6 RepliesI need to Store Objects with Key like:
Key: <Fontname & FontSize> / Object: <Font Object>
Example content:
ArialRegular8 | <Corresponding Font Object>
ImpactItalic10 | <Corresponding Font Object>
TimesRomanRegular12 | <Corresponding Font Object>
These font types come from an external library, the real type is DocumentFont, I prefer not to store just values and recreate the font object later, so I need to store the object, and i want to be able to call Contains() later without looping. like for example Dictionary (of T Key, T Value), is this the best option? Also, to be able to call Contains(), i will have to overload function Contains() using an Interface or this is already built-in in some Collections / Dictionaries when using a String as Key?
It is possible to output all the dictionary values to a textbox? Not the keys, just the values of all the keys.

Dim chardict As Dictionary(Of Char, Integer) = Nothing
chardict.Add("A", 0)
chardict.Add("B", 1)
I wanted to do the following if statement but I am a bit stuck on the syntax:
if chardict.containskey("A")
'display the value that corrosponds to the letter "A"
'in this case display the character 0
[some code]
end if
Very easy today, I think. In C#, its:
Dictionary<String, String> dict = new Dictionary<string, string>() { { "", "" } };
But in vb, the following doesn't work.
Public dict As Dictionary(Of String, String) = New Dictionary(Of String, String) (("",""))
I'm pretty sure there's a way to add them at declaration, but I'm not sure how. And yes, I want to add them at declaration, not any other time. :)
I've also tried:
Public dict As Dictionary(Of String, String) = New Dictionary(Of String, String) ({"",""})
And...
Public dict As Dictionary(Of String, String) = New Dictionary(Of String, String) {("","")}
And...
Public dict As Dictionary(Of String, String) = New Dictionary(Of String, String) {{"",""}}
I have a dictionary of type:
Dim parentDictionary As Dictionary(int,Dictionary(string,string)).
Dim childDictionary As Dictionary(string,string).
parentDictionary.Add(1,childDictionary)
Now I need to iterate over childDictionary to fetch key value pairs.My childDictionary is inside parentDictionary.
I can insert values into a VB.NET Dictionary when I create it? I can, but don't want to, do dict.Add(int, "string") for each item.
Basically, I want to do "How to insert values into C# Dictionary on instantiation?" with VB.NET.
var dictionary = new Dictionary<int, string>
{
{0, "string"},
{1, "string2"},
{2, "string3"}
};
I have a dictionary that has strings variables as keys and a List collection of doubles as values.

Within a loop I populate the Results variable as follows:

I add objects (structure type) to a dictionary with string keys.
i don't figure out how to update a value of a object.
i use TryGetValue to get a reference to a object of the dictionary collection.
But the changes i made at the referenced object are not made at the object at the dictionary.
Any hints how to get a object reference to change values without to re-add the complete object?[code]...
If I had multiple entries under my value in my dictionary, is there anyway I can put each value in separate tags to create an xml document?
Is there anyway to split the 3 values into their own tags?
I still can't assign the process the username of the session id that is associated with it.[code]...
View 1 RepliesI have a VB.NET project where I am able to iterate through the keys and values collections of a dictionary object using an index:
MyDictionary.Keys(idx)
MyDictionary.Values(idx)
When this code is taken from the test project and placed into the real project I get the following error:
'System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary(Of Double, String).KeyCollection' cannot be indexed because it has no default property.[code]...
In the line in sub search that says "dtf.Keys(idx) = 0" place your cursor after the right parenthesis and backspace you should get a tooltip that says, "<Extension> ElementAtOrDefault(index as Integer) as Double - index: the zero based element of the index to retrieve.
Any one aware of how to sort a set of point coordinates in the top to bottom, left to right fashion?
For example, I have a set of values like (3,5,10), (4,6,12), (4,6,1), (2,8,14).[code]...
We have a generic List(Of Product) that must be sorted on two or more properties of the Product class.
The product class has the properties "Popular" numeric (asc), "Clicked" numeric (desc), "Name" string (asc). In order of naming the properties we want the list to sort.
How can it be sort with an lamba statement? If have found to sort the list based on one property.

I�m using VB.Net 2008 application program.I�m using DataGridView, where column types DataGridViewTextBoxColumn. I have 3 fields. 1 field values are numeric, 1 field values are string and 1 field values are decimal.
When I try to sort the string value column, it sorts correctly. But when i try to sort the numeric value column, it sorts as if its string value.
