How To Access A Function In Another Class
Feb 7, 2012
So, I am reorganizing a winform application I wrote to make it more readable and maintainable. The previous structure I used had:
1- a login form with some connection objects
2- an import process start form with some import objects
3- a log writer class that receives data from the import process and writes a log file at the end of the import process
The code quickly got too messy, so my goal now is:
1- a login form with only form events
2- an import form with only form events
3- a class with all the functions
Basically, my class with all the functions (3) looks like this:
Public Class MyProgramMainClass
Public Function test()
Dim testing As String = "test"
[Code].....

I work in MS Visual Studio 2008, I have a VB.NET Solution which has three Projects, BusinessObjectLibrary (object properties), DataAccessLibrary (object functions such as selectAll, exportToExcel) and WindowUserInterface (UserForms c/w Controls)In my WindowUserInterface (project) I have a form called "rolFormGrid.vb", on this form, I have a DataGrid that gets filled with a function called "selectAll" when the form is loaded, I also have a button that calls the function "exportToExcel" and I have a Progress Bar called "rolProgressBar" ***.
In my DataAccessLibray (project) I have a class called "ROL_Adapter.vb", and in this class resides the function called "exportToExcel" which has all the code to create an Excel Workbook. When this function is being called, it can takes close to a minute to export to excel. We all know how users can be impatient if they do not see anything happening in the foreground when an application is working, that is the reason I want the progress bar.

I have some classes, BsfciFile and StudyFlashCard. Bsfci is the extension to which I save my set of flashcards in an INI format. I am currently working to transform my code from using Windows API calls to access the INI to using a IniFile class that I found on the internet. I would like the BsfciFile to have a Array of StudyFlashCard objects, but I would like the StudyFlashCard class to use the IniFile class object contained in the BsfciFile class. I can pass the IniFile from the BsfciFile class to the constructor for the StudyFlashCard class, but I want it to modify the same IniFile as the BsfciFile class has later on.

This is a bit of a continuation from a previous post for which AtmaWeapon was very informative.
Problem:
A parent class has a sub class with various properties. A property of the parent class is a List(of T) with T = the sub class The issue is how to store data in the sub class of the instantiated parent
Some example code (hopefully formatted correctly):
Code:
'=========== Class Definitions =============
Public Class courseClass
Public Class timeTableClass

I have a very simple class that is located within my App_Code folder in my VS2008 web application project. I am trying to instantiate an instance of this class from my code-behind file. Intellisense does not seem to be seeing my class and I am not sure why. I am using VB.NET which I am admittedly not that familiar with as compared to C#. Perhaps I am missing something. I would bet it has something to do with something I am missing in VB.NET.Here is my simple class (for testing):

Is it possible to set a variable in my custom class for Private Read/Write access and Public Readonly access without creating Properties with Get and Set? In other words, from within my class I want full access and from my form I only want read access. Right now I declare my variable as either Private or Public to control Public read/write access. I tried googling my question a bit but I'm not sure what the correct terms even ar

This is my first major application using multiple classes. It is written in vb and I know about creating objects of the class and using that instance to call functions of the class. But how do I create an object with constructors to allow another program written in C# to access my classes and functions and accept things from the program.

I have a Class, which I create an instance of in order to use, however I have a couple of functions (which don't really relate to the instance data) which I want to use when an instance hasn't been created.
Visual Basic .NET (2010)
Example of what I'm trying to do:
' Log a user into the system (this works)
Dim hedwig As New CustomSecurity
hedwig.Login("username", "password")

Code:
public sub test()
msgbox(special())
end sub and it should popup a string, let's say "cool", plus i shld be able to use special() in every single sub but if we call special() from a function it should be rejected. how can that be done?
also, we should also be able to do the following
Code:
public sub test()
msgbox(specialvariable)
end sub whereby specialvariable is accessible by every sub.

I realize that this is a very basic question, but it's been a long time since I've played with VB. Why can't I call the Synch() Sub/Function in my CMMS_SCAD_CLASS class from my Main module? I get the following compile-time error:
'Synch' is not a member of 'ConsoleApplication1.CMMS_SCADA_CLASS.'
Main class:
HTML
Module Main
Sub Main()
Dim meterClass As New CMMS_SCADA_CLASS()

I want to create a function inside my class that will return a boolean on the existence of some data within any structures created with the class.
Public Class MyObject
Public Object1 as String
Public Object2 as String

What I don't know how to do is refer to the object that called the function to get values, including the number of items in the referring objects array.

I am new to vb.net and would like to be able to convert the following code to it's own function - either inside the current module or better yet in a seperate class.This code currently runs in the KEYPRESS event and ensures only numbers, decimal point, 2 decimals etc. are entered and not letters. Works exactly how I want it but would now like it in a function.I need this code in numerous text box controls but I would rather just call it somehow with a function.

Since the string class does not have a Left method, how would you do this in VB.Net. I could use String.SubString(0, x), but the problem with this method is that it throws an exception if the String is not at least x characters long. Should I use the Microsoft.VisualBasic.Left function instead?

I want to create a new instance of a class when I click on a button, but I need to interact with members of that class using other controls on the form, so I need the class to have a global scope. I know I could call the new class in formload, but the class creates certain variables that need to be current. If it is done on formload, the variables wouldn't be current, because if the class is created at formload, it would have different info at that time. Surely, there must be a way to create an instance of the myClass from within a sub that is accessible from other subs of the same class.
