I need use a collection of differents types, this is:id (long), name (string), type (integer), open (byte) idReg (integer)I would like use it like an array but using the "field" id as key. The only way that i found for do it possible is using a custom class and then a dictionary.This is the custom class:
Public Class frmColeccion
Private m_name As String
Private m_type As Integer

I have created a Dictionary class (MyDictionary for the example). I am currently trying to pass MyDictionary into a function, filter it into a new instance of MyDictionary and pass this new instance into another method. When I am attempting to create the second instance from the filtered first instance of MyDictionary via Lambda Expressions and the ToDictionary Method, I am getting the following error:
Unable to cast object of type 'System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.Int32,System.String]' to type 'MyDictionary'. I have simplified the example and recreated it in LINQPad and am getting the same error.
Here's the simplified version of my code:

I want to extend the VB.NET dictionary object to not bitch about an item being already in the associative array.This is what i want to do:

My problem now is:How can I replace the (of object, object)line to let the dictionary be of generic/customizable type?
I'm having trouble implementing an IComparer method. Essentially, I want to compare the properties of two custom objects (the properties are of type integer).dE is a Dictionary(Of String, customObj)prTabIndex is a property of customObj and is of type Integer (these hold true for all examples)After some more searching I found this thread which suggested 3 things: a List approach, utilizing LINQ, and using some C# 3.0 features. I've tried three different ways:...rolling my own IComparer implementation:
Public m As Sub(ByRef d As Dictionary(of String, customObj))
Dim sortedD As New SortedDictionary(Of String, customObj)(d, myCompare)
End Sub
[code]....
Note that VS2008 has underlined 'dE.ToDictionary...' (to the end of the line) and giving me two messages depending on where I hover my mouse:
1) "Data type(s) of the type parameter(s) in extension method 'signature' As 'signature defined in 'System.Linq.Enumerable cannot be inferred from these arguments. Specifying the data types explicitly might correct this error. Seen while hovering over "ToDictionary".
2) Nested function does not have the same signature as delegate 'signature'. Seen while hovering over anything after "ToDictionary".
Q1) How far off am I in each of the implementations?
Q2) Which one is the computationally least expensive? Why?
Q3) Which one is the computationally most expensive? Why?
I have a Dictionary with key of type UInteger and the value is List(Of Session) where the (Public) class Session contains a couple of variables and a constructor (Public Sub New(...)). Some of the variables in my Session class is:
Private count As Integer
Private StartDate As Date
Private Values As List(Of Integer)
and a couple of methods like:
Friend Sub Counter(ByVal c as Integer)
count += c
End Sub
There is no problem to add values to the Dictionary:
Dim Sessions As New List(Of Session)
Dim dict As New Dictionary(Of Integer, List(Of Sessions))
then some code to fill up a couple of Session objects in Sessions (not shown here) and then:
dict.Add(17, Sessions) ''#No problem
Sessions.Clear()
Sessions = dict(17) ''#This doesn't return anything!
The Sessions object is empty even if the code doesn't returned any error.Is my class Session to compex to be stored in a Dictionary?
When using the Dictionary class when the key and value types are your own custom types, is it possible to specify the property of the key type object to use with the ContainsKey method? Best described with an example:
Dim dict as New Dictionary(Of CutsomType, AnotheCustomType)
Dim obj1 as CustomType ' Custom type with 3 properties ID, LastName and FirstName
Dim obj2 as AnotherCustomType
[Code]....
I could just omit the lines with ContainsKey but I'd prefer to know how it's making the comparison and how to change it if required. I don't want to use an integer containing the ID for the key type because I want to reference the whole object later on again.

I'm trying to create a strongly-typed Dictionary class in VB.NET.I'm tired of typing Dim people as Dictionary(Of String, Person)and want to make a PersonDictionary class so I can say Dim people as PersonDictionary.My reference material says to create a new class that inherits the DictionaryBase class. Then override the Add, Remove, and Item Sub/Properties.It seems like a pretty common pattern, is there an easier way?

So if I want to test it and use MsgBox() how do I trickle down to pull, say, name in food > cheese1 > info > attributes2 > name?

I 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.

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

- Name As String etc

View 3 RepliesI have a map with a MapItemsControl in my WP7 app that contains pushpins bound to items in a collection of custom classes. The pushpins are bound to properties of the item in the collection via a DataTemplate.When an item is added to or removed from the collection, all pins display correctly, with properties as per bindings, but when just an items' properties are modified, the UI does not update. The bindings just seem to get values from the source item upon loading, but I'd like them to keep the UI elements updated when the source collection items' properties are updated.To illustrate, I'll create a similar example:
Heres a custom class:
Public Class Box
Property CurrentColor As Color
Property Location As GeoCoordinate
End Class
[code]....
Whenever I add or remove items from TempBoxes, the pins all render as they should (e.g. if I specify a color in the collection item, the pin shows the color).Tapping on the item triggers the BoxTouched sub, which causes the item's color to change in the collection, but the UI doesn't change (pin color stays the same).To get the UI to update the color, I have to get it to render the pins again, by adding something like this to BoxTouched:
BoxControl.ItemsSource = Nothing
BoxControl.ItemsSource = TempBoxes
I can't figure out why this does not work.
