I am trying to declare List(Of String(2)) and it doesn't work
I understood that if I specify the length of the string() the compiler will not need to guess the length and it will be more fast that way, is it correct?
I want the Function to accept List(Of String), Array & String and similarly return List(Of String), Array & String respectively. The Function simply adds a string (month) to the input collection. I just want to use it for string, array and list with needing to think of conversions.
I have a List(of String()). I have written a custom comparer (implements IComparer(of string)) to do an alphanumeric sort.Is there a way to sort the List using a given index to determine which position in the String() to sort by? In other words one time I might sort by Index = 0 and another time by Index = 3. The length of all String() in the list is the same.For reference this question is similar to Sort List<String[]> except I am using VB.net and that question is hardwired to Index=0.
EDIT from OP's comments:I started simple with the non custom comparer but I am getting an error: expression does not produce a value. Not sure what I am doing wrong.Here is the code:
Public Shared Function SortListOfStringArray(ByVal ListOfStringArray As List(Of String()), ByVal SortByIndex As Integer) As List(Of String()) Return ListOfStringArray.Sort(Function(x, y) x(SortByIndex).CompareTo(y(SortByIndex))) End Function
I am having some problems declaring a fixed lenght string in vb.net. I am studying code for using webcam in vb.net, although the code is from vb6 but I am told it works in dot net. Everyting else seems to be working except this line[url]...
When working with PHP I always declared my string variable and set them equal to null just to be safe. I'm new to visual basic and am wondering what the safest way to declare a string variable is. Will
Dim strWords As String
be sufficient? Or is it better to set it to null or nothing or some other default value or primitive type?
1. In visual basic 6 when we want to declare a specific string range you use the following format: Dim SZ_ITEM_REF_NO As String * 16 When I checked, like vb6, the code it returned "end of statement expected"
2. When we wanted to have a specific format in the string in vb6 we use the example below: SZ_ITEM_REF_NO = Format(Adodc2.Recordset!SZ_ITEM_REF_NO, "0000000000000000")
I have the following myWriter.WriteLine(myReader(0).ToString
I tried to use it like this but it doesn't function: Format(myWriter.WriteLine(myReader(0).ToString, "00000000000000000000"))
Is it possible to declare a variable using the text of, lets say a string, as the name?If u dont get it im looking for something like;Dim Var + string1 As PictureBox..In the code "Var" is the start of the name and "string1" is the end of it so if string1 was "Hello", the picturebox would have been named VarHello.
What I'm supposed to do is declare two module level String variables name strCaptital and strChoice and I did that. At least I think I put them in the right place, however what I'm not sure what to do is and I started is that I'm supposed to code each state radio button's click event procedures so that each assigns the appropriate capital to the strCapital variable and then each removes the contents of the lblMsg control.url...
i have problem using insert into query for values = "Import With Pre.Tariff (Asean,Cept,C'wealth)" it keeps saying
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression ''Import With Pre.Tariff (Asean,Cept,C'wealth'.
it seems is it cannot reads ) and show missing operator but this is a string not operator for "Import With Pre.Tariff (Asean,Cept,C'wealth)" this whole thing is sting from datagridview .. any how to make it insert into database without system prompt missing operator problem ???
which is apostrophere problem i used single quote but system read like dat
''Import With Pre.Tariff (Asean,Cept,C'wealth'.. it drops ')' G3_select = "insert into tblrk1stt (JOB_NO, [COUNTER], RES_CODE, ERR_DESC, REMARK, LINE_NO) VALUES ('" & G3_value4 & "', '"
I have two List(Of String) both containing several hundred thousand results.
Private Function AddUniqueFiles(lNewFiles as List(Of String)) As outList(Of String) Dim aCounter As Integer = 0 Dim files As New inList(Of String)
[Code]....
However the time it takes to do this comparison can be very long indeed - is there a better way of doing this type of comparison... All I am trying to do is add values from List2 in to List1 which are not already present in List1 - So in effect adding new Unique values found in List 2 in to List 1. I am only looking for performance improvements - nothing else.
To be able to sort a dictionary by value I'm using this code:
Dim idCurrentJobs As IDictionary(Of String, Int32) = New Dictionary(Of String, Int32) 'The string in the dictionary represents a jobname and the integer is a counter for how many jobs im currently are running in the application' idCurrentJobs.Add("JobName1", 2)
What would be the fasted method of get a string list of all values within [] in a string of text? For example: [client_name], are you are doing today? My name is [my_name]. The list of strings would be:
We're working on a big ASP.NETVB.NET website project. I need to populate three dropdownlists. To last two are independent of the previous ones. The population data comes from an SQL Server. I'd have no problem doing this with code-behind with post back but we don't want any PostBacks so I started to develop this in AjaxjQuery.
I'm trying to solve a problem regarding types of list. First of all I have a stored procedure in my DB which does a select of a single column and I try to proceed it in my app in VB. By making a method function I declared a DataTable that loads through the SqlCommand(with the CloseConnection behavior). After that I publicly declared a List(Of String) which needs to be populated with the rows/items from the stored procedure that is on the way. Below is my snippet of the code:
Dim dt As New DataTable() Try If conn.State = ConnectionState.Open Then
[Code]....
It's LPrefix = collection.Cast(Of String)() where I get an exception error telling me that I can't really convert it. The old fashion way is to iterate with for/for each loop but that's not what I want for best use of performance especially if the list will have thousands of rows from a single column. So basically, I want to insert those items from that DataTable to the List(Of String) without For/For Each loop.

The intention is to convert an IList of custom objects to a string equivalent comprising each element in the Ilist. Unfortunately I can't seem to find a way to get the underlying data of the custom object, and of course as in the above example, using object simply gives me a string of types definitions, rather than access to the underlying data.
i could use Global x as string in vb6 in a module to declare it with global privelages, how can i do this in vb2008? how to declare a global variable in vb2008? so that i could use it anywhere i want. i know global variables are not recommended in programming but i need one.
Ok i'm trying to declare a global list of type T (or is it <anonymous type>) i declare it in a module with something like Friend query As New List(of {whatever type i try}) the app takes some xml and parses it into a list but i need this list available to other classes and methods within the app, everything i have tried fails resulting in an error like Value of type 'System.Collections.Generic.List(Of <anonymous type>)' cannot be converted to 'System.Collections.Generic.List(Of {whatever type i try})'.
What would be the correct way to declare a list of this type? is there another way i could do this?
