View 8 RepliesI have a variable that reads in a POST from paypal. This is the instant payment notification stream and all the keys and values are stored into a string variable .
mc_gross=0.05&protection_eligibility=Ineligible&payer_id=UEWAFF732VL&tax=0.00&payment_date=22%3A36%3A55+Jul+21%2C+2009+PDT&payment_status=Completed&charset=windows-1252&first_name=Scot
This is part of the string. How do I break this up into a set of variables. I tried using request.form but this did not do anything. I'm trying to get the variables and then pass them to a function that will write everything to a database.
Dim amount = Request.Form("mc_gross")
Dim currency = Request.Form("currency")
Dim pmtdate = Request.Form("payment_date")
Dim status = Request.Form("payment_status")
I only need certain variables from this variable which is strNewvalue. How to I get the values stored in this variable?

So strings are reference types right? My understanding is a reference to the string in the heap is passed even when you pass the string ByVal to a method.
String myTestValue = "NotModified";
TestMethod(myTestValue);
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Write(myTestValue); /* myTestValue = "NotModified" WTF? *[code].....
And what is going on under the hood? I would have bet my life that the value would have changed....

I'm thinking to use the SortedDictionary to store 65,000 set of keypairs and from time to time during my program execution, I need to retrieve the value from the this dictionary. May i know will there any concern especially in term of speed of execution if i use this method as above? Is there max. capacity that a dictionary can hold?
Previously, i was thinking to use a simple 2D array to do this, but it mights slow things down because in order to retrieve the value, i might need to loop through the whole array till i found the value that i want.

View 3 RepliesI'm having a little trouble creating a game of pairs as a project.Basically I've got to the point where I can start a game, layout a bunch of cards in a grid, 6x6, and then have a way of matching the pairs together. First of all I used a For loop to assign the cards into a two dimensional array. They are pictureboxes however so when a user clicks on 2 cards, checking them to see if they match has become confusing. I've tried to stuff like this for example but it's not working: [code] This doesn't work because it can't compare the picture boxes stored to the array slot. Is there any clever person with a way around this? Or that can think of a way to compare them. The pictureboxes kinda need to stay like there though :/

I am writing a simulator for a complex technical system. I have created a custom control which inherits from the Button control. My project requires around 100 of these buttons, which function identically except for one difference. The background image cycles between 4 different images, (depending upon whether the button is pressed and/or the state of a Fault parameter), and this group of 4 images is different for many of the buttons. So when I drag a new control onto the form, I'd like to be able to specify which group of 4 images to use for this button.
Currently I'm using this syntax:
if not IsFault and isOn then
MyBase.BackgroundImage = My.Resources.FaultOnButton01
...
But this means I have to change each image in the code for each individual button. To simplify matters I though of using the Tag attribute. That way the class code can select the images by a process like this:
if not IsFault and isOn then
Mybase.BackgroundImage=My.Resources. + mybase.Tag + "01"
Obviously this syntax won't work, so my question is: How can I pass a built-up string value to the MyBase.BackgroundImage?

I can pass integers, singles, doubles, and arrays of all these back and forth with no problem. But I can't figure out how to pass a string in Visual Basic 2010 to a character variable in the Fortran DLL. I keep getting the PInvokeStackImbalance error. I could just convert the Visual Basic string to an integer array containing the ASCII code for each character, send that, and convert back inside the DLL, but that's pathetic. There must be a simple way to do this.
I first tried using Dim txt(50) as Char in VB2010, and character*50 txt in the DVF F90 DLL but that didn't work.
