.net :: Using Reflection To Invoke An Extension Method?
Nov 16, 2011I've created a MyFunc extension (in Module Extensions) for all the base types as well as generic arrays, ICollection(Of T) and Dictionary(Of String,T):
Function MyFunc(Of T)(a() As T) As String
Function MyFunc(Of T)(collection As ICollection(Of T)) As String
Function MyFunc(Of T)(dict As Dictionary(Of String,T)) As String

Invoke HasValue On A Nullable Property Of An Object Via Reflection?
Sep 15, 2010This function loops all properties of an object to create the updatequery to save te object to the DB.
We had to make some changes to it because of the introduction of nullable properties. If the property is nullable we would like to check the 'HasValue' property. This does works when it has a value. When the property has no value we get an 'Non-static method requires a target'-error at the CBool-line
An other way to check the 'HasValue'-prop of a property using reflection?
Private Function GetUpdateQuery(ByVal obj As Object, ByRef params As List(Of SqlParameter), Optional ByVal excl As String() = Nothing) As String
Dim sql As String = String.Empty

Get A Constructor With String Parameter By Reflection?
Feb 17, 2009Is there a robust way to get a constructor with string parameter by reflection?I have no choice, but instantiate a class without knowing if the constructor belongs to it, a base class, or come intermediate class in the inheritance chain.
View 1 RepliesReflection - Get The Name Of The Object Passed In A Byref Parameter?
Aug 29, 2011How can I get the name of the object that was passed byref into a method?
Example:
Dim myobject as object
sub mymethod(byref o as object)
debug.print(o.[RealName!!!!])
end sub
[code]....
I'm using this for logging. I use one method multiple times and it would be nice to log the name of the variable that I passed to it. Since I'm passing it byref, I should be able to get this name, right?This would give you the parameter name in the method and it's type, but not the name of the variable that was passed byref.
using system.reflection
Dim mb As MethodBase = MethodInfo.GetCurrentMethod()
For Each pi As ParameterInfo In mb.GetParameters()
[code]....
If you put that in "mymethod" above you'd get "o" and "Object".

Invoke A Method Rather Than A Control?
Aug 20, 20091. On the main form a scanner class is instantiated that (in the scanner's constructor) sets the scanner settings (baud rate, parity, etc) and opens the scanner for use
2. A barcode is scanned (via a scanner connected to the device in a seral port) while on the main form
3. In the scanner class, the DataRecieved event gets the needed info from the scanned code.
4. Then that info is passed back to the main form to a method RunCommandCode (which takes the scanned info as an argument)
5. On the main form the RunCommandCode calls another method CommandCodeHandler, passing the scanned info again
6. In the CommandCodeHandler sub a method is called in a Utils class (SetSelectedTab), which interacts with the form itself (determines how many tabs exist on a tab control), which is the reason for the invoke in the first place
So, before I figured out I needed to use the Invoke method (and, more specifically, that the scanner was working in a different thread), I was getting an error in step 6 on the line that got the TabControl.TabPages.Count.

Using The Invoke Method Of IDispatch?
Aug 31, 2010I am implementing a custom iDispatchLLInvoke handler for VB.NET - some of this is working.So Far - I have been able to intercept and provide custom handling of simple functions and property calls - but I am stuck when I try to set a property and get an error "Invalid Pointer (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004003 (E_Pointer))".
I am using the new .NET 4.0 ICustomQueryInterface to do this. In Summary - I intercept and provide my own implementation of iDispatch - I load the dispIDs on the first call - and return a the dispID for each call within GetIDsOfNames - this ID is than passed to Invoke where reflection is used to get the value and return the result.
When I attempt to set a property - a call is made to GetIDsofNames and I return a valid dispID - the application than crashes with the error above and no call is made to Invoke.As a result - I am assuming that the issue relates to my interface definition been wrong becase the code never get's back to .NET code - see below for this code:
<ComImport(), Guid("00020400-0000-0000-C000-000000000046"), InterfaceTypeAttribute(ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIUnknown)> _
Public Interface IDispatch

In other words I want to point arg2 to something else within the invoked function.

Invoking A Method Via Reflection Causes System.MissingMethodException?
Dec 5, 2011I am loading an assembly dynamically and invoking a static method from it. The problem arises when the method uses a reference which is not trivial (e.g. mscorlib or System.Core) - I get System.MissingMethodException. I have tried going through the references assemblies of the loaded assembly and manually loading them all, thus forcing them to be loaded onto the AppDomain. I have checked CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies, the assemblies are loaded.
View 1 RepliesInvoke A Method Of A Windows Service From Script?
May 25, 2011Is it possible to somehow invoke foo("SomeAwesomeString") from VBScript directly (i.e., without it having to launch an additional process)?
The use case is this: I am trying to write an 'extension' application for hMailServer (hMS), but hMS can only invoke VBscript scripts when an event happened. I can have the VBscript launch an .exe every time the event happened, but the processing involve opening and closing a connection to a back-end database. So, every invocation is very expensive. I had been thinking that I can reduce the expense by having a Service to maintain the connection (i.e., opening it once and re-open it if the connection closed). Plus by implementing the processing as background worker threads will result in a non-blocking processing + less process-starting overhead.

How To Use Late Binding To Invoke Method With ByRef Parameters
May 22, 2009I have a COM component that I want to call using late-binding from VB.NET (using Primary Interop Assembly - PIA method). My IDL signature for the COM method looks like:
HRESULT Send([in]BSTR bstrRequestData,
[out]VARIANT *pvbstrResponseData,
[out]VARIANT *pvnExtCompCode,
[out,retval]int *pnCompletionCode);
So 2 'ByRef' parameters in VB.NET lingo, and a return value. I attempt to invoke this method like so:
Dim parameters(2) As Object
parameters(0) = "data"
parameters(1) = New Object()
parameters(2) = New Object()
Dim p As New ParameterModifier(3)
[Code] .....
This fails spectactularly with an exception: {"Invalid callee. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80020010 (DISP_E_BADCALLEE))"}
I assume this means I'm doing something wrong in my parameterMods array. Because if I comment out setting any value of the ParameterMods array to 'True' - it works. It of course doesnt update the parameters that are [out] parameters and so it's not working as intended. Is there something else to consider since the method also has a return value? The MSDN example pretty much does exactly what I am doing, with the exception that example did not have a return value.

Pass A Method Like A Parameter Of Another Method
Feb 4, 2011Is there a way to choose between different methods and pass one into another method ?
Sub conditionnal_binding(ByVal list_box_reference As ListBox, ByVal list_box_final As ListBox, _
ByVal dico_source As Dictionary(Of String, List(Of String)), _
ByVal my_methode As ??? )
' DO SOMETHING
End Sub
I wrote ??? because I don't know how to call another method inside a method.
I would like to choose between different "sub-methods". Here is how I would like to use my method :
conditionnal_binding(ListBox1, ListBox3, HTML.dico_basic_attribut, best_method)
conditionnal_binding(ListBox1, ListBox3, HTML.dico_basic_attribut, some_method)
