Implement The Player Class Through Plug-ins?
Mar 16, 2009
I've never actually used Reflection, but I've been warned in the past that using it may cause slow performance. My question is what part(s) of it is/are slow.
I'm thinking about creating a board game and I wanted to implement the player class through plug-ins. That way there could be several different player classes (i.e. human players, and several configurable AI classes). If implemented this way, where should I expect performance hits? Only when initializing the player class? When passing arguments to methods in the player class? In the entirety of execution of methods from the player class? Or is it going to affect the whole application?
The reason I ask is that the AI will be extremely processor intensive. Through testing it seems like it may take around 1-30 seconds to determine a move on my quad core (Core 2 Q6600) processor, depending on the effort spent to optimize the move and testing different branches on separate threads.
My concern is that if I implement the AI via a plug-in, the move determination would slow down considerably to the point where it wasn't playable on lesser hardware.

I need to create unit testing project for my current website. The currentw ebsite si written in VB. All unit testing examples are using interface to create mock object. My current VB class does not implment any interface. Can I add interface and implement it to my current class and functions without affecting or changing codes to any pages in my website that call the functions? For examples my current class is like:

I am working on a general helper class to sort ListView SubItems. I wrote a base class that has much of the code I need. It includes a MustOverride for the Compare method so that the various inherited classes can implment their own comparisons based upon their type. For the value types, I end up with very similar code such as the following, where x and y are ListViewItems: Public Overloads Overrides Function Compare(ByVal x As Object, ByVal y As Object, ByVal sortColumnIndex As Integer, ByVal sortOrder As System.Windows.Forms.SortOrder) As Integer [code]

I want to modify the base Array class by creating a new class called "FileArray".I have some text files that are read into a string array. Each element in the array is a line from the text file. I want to update the GetValue method by overloading it or overriding it so that it will update some value that will give an indication to what the last line was. I have a couple of ideas on how I can do this:
1) Use a public integer, like intLine, that gets updated everytime GetValue is called.
2) Create a new property of Array, such as "LastLine" that would return the last line number (which would basically be the last index value +1) and then use a public array to store the files (though this is less desirable as the array may be used by several different functions)
An easier way would be to be able to determine the last element that was returned, which is basically what I think I am describing above.

Implement singleton in a parent class.Infact what I want is that All the childs etc. should use same instance of the parent.
I have implemented singleton, Changed the scope of parent class's constructor to "Protected". But in the application when ever the new child's constructor is called i.e. "Dim abc as New Ch1()" the constructor of Parent is called (as it is Proctected and can be access from child).

i cant seem to find an answer to, i recently decide to start using class libraries, but cant seem to figure them out. I need to be able to assign the class details to fields within my texboxes and controls found in the Tab, i have placed an image with a basic layout of the controls on the tab. My question is: 1stly how do i make it so that the class library performs the function within the tab without having to create a seperate form for it with its own controls(or do i need to do that?)Secondly: In the next tab, can i create a seperate class library for it if it performs another task such as issue? how to create and place them as refferences, i just cant figure out how to marry the controls?

I've been trying to make basically a simple animation player inside a class so that I can use it in a game I have to make for a school IPT project. When I first tested out some code I found, it was not in "class form", ie there were just loose variables as I was only animating a single .gif file. The code worked perfectly, and the animation was drawn frame by frame by the e.Graphics.DrawImage function.
Now that I have moved the code into a class (So I can run more than one animation at a time, though Im still trying to get only one to work), The e.Graphics.DrawImage function didnt work. It would draw the first image, but then (even though the function is called as shown by stepping through the lines of code), the picture doesn't update. I know the frame has changed as Ive kept track of the current frame in the debug window, but it still wont work.
I have had troubles like this with other GDI functions, where if the variable to draw is inside a class (etc) it simply wont work, it will only work if it is a loosely floating variable. (i.e. Sprite.Image doesnt work, If I just make an image it does). With the code below, I have tried in the e.Graphics.DrawImage function submitting me.wth.animatedImage and wth.animatedImage
Public Class Form1
Dim wth As New vsprite
Public Class vsprite
Public animatedImage As New Bitmap("C:Documents and SettingsSamDesktopexplosion.gif")
Public currentlyAnimating As Boolean = False

I've now properly started implementing OO into my system (which I probably should have done from the start) but I just want to clear some best practices.So let's say I have a class called Job which contains information such as Description, Project Manager (Employee class), Value etc. at the moment, if I initialise the Job class it will initialise all the information held within it, even if I only want the job description. Is it best practice to do this or is it better to implement the class and access the database for values as and when they're needed? Or is it just better in those cases to just access the database directly?
