i have several classes / objects from it in a program that hold data like clsAddress with properties id, city, zipcode, name, and clsMyData that contain id, datafield1, datafield2, datafield3 and many more (just examples) I want to have methods in the objects to load the object from and save the object into a database, like me.loadFromDb and me.SaveToDb Of course i can do creating db tables like tAdress, tMyData, ... and in the methods do select / insert statements like "insert into adresses (city, zipcode, name) values(me.city, me.zipcode, me.name) etc. BUT - what i dont like is a) i need to build this loadfromDB / saveToDB Methods for every class separately and b) whenever i alter a class, i must alter the DB structure and the methods.
There is an OLE object column that contains images in my access database. I'm trying to create a program that reads the images from that ole column and store the images to a file. Currently, I have a program that creates an image file but the image is blank.[code]
I have a need to populate a data object containing 30+ properties from a database table. I could create a simple class containing a public variable for each of the required properties, but I don't want to.
Is the following code a bad idea:
<Serializable()> Public Class DtoEmployee Public EmployeeId As String
how to implement UI, BL and DAL in a project the way that I see it as a requirement for some projects. The way I am able to do a project now is from a form create an object of a class in which there are properties and functions that do database selects, updates and deletes. Looks to me that doing a project like that is separating the UI from the DAL. In an update button click event I may call Obj. Delete (txtCustID.txt) for example. I don't understand the part of further breaking it down to include a Business layer; in which a vb solution is made up of three solutions.What goes in the BL?Does the BL call the DAL?
I am somewhat new to object oriented programming and am attempting to flatten a Linq object hierarchy by using a shim class.how to initalize a derived class with property values from a base class?I have two objects, a base object with about 100 properties, and a derived object which inherits from the base object and adds a few additional properties beyond those of the base object. My simple constructor creates the derived object, but I am looking for a way to initialize the derived object properties with values from the base object.Right now I am using reflection to iterate over the properties individually and I suspect there may be a better way. The following example shows my shim class constructor for the derived class, and two properties:
newProperty1 - a new string property of the derived class
flattenedProperty2 - a new string property of the derived class, copied from a 2nd-level object of the base class
Code example:
Public Class derivedObj Inherits baseObj Private _newProperty1 As String[code].......
Is this the correct constructor approach to flatten the object hierarchy using a shim class? My second question relates to initialization of properties in the derived class. The constructor above creates the derived object, but what is the best way to initialize the derived object properties with values from the base object? The following code uses reflection to iterate over the properties individually, but I suspect there may be a better way.
Code example:
' property names are in the string array fieldNames
'baseObjQuery is an ienumerable of baseObj
'derivedObjList is a list of derivedObj[code].....
Is there a simple way to initialize values for the properties in the derived object based upon the values of the common properties in the base object?
I want to build a MVC helper function for which I pass a Entity Framework object and have it build a select. Generally speaking I tried something like this:
Public Function RenderSelect(ByVal helper As HtmlHelper, ByVal sSelectName As String, ByVal aItmes As Array, Optional ByVal sTitleKeyName As String = "name", Optional ByVal sValueKeyName As String = "id") As String ' open select
[Code].....
However, it isn't working. It would be great to have a way to do this and pass the current entity object.
I am developing a windows application, how can i store the view state of a page in vb.net. i have 12 labels on a page and when i click on each label the color of the label changes to black, what i want is when i come back to the same page, i want the labels to retain their colors....
I am trying to figure out how to add my own properties to an object. i am trying to make my own rpg game and i want to be able to refer to a integer property like so: strengthstat = bronzelongsword.attackstrength. of course strength stat being an integer vairable that would equal to the property attackstrength that belongs to the bronze longsword.
I need to permanently store a string or maybe a object in my application. And yes, I have tried the application settings (My.Settings).
My.Settings.something = "hi" will save "hi" into something, and when i use msgbox to output the data, it works. The thing is; when I copy my application to somewhere else on my computer it is gone. I guess the settings is saved to some file at the filesystem, and when I move my file it also creates a new settings file. How can I store a string inside my application, and also move the application later on?
I am coding a program that will allow the user to input 5 payrolls for Store 1, Store 2, and Store 3. The total of the 5 payrolls are then added together and shown in the respective Store's labels. A total label is also there to add up all the totals into one number. The numbers in the label must be in currency form. My problem is the numbers don't add correctly when I hit calculate. The first two numbers add together, but then after that the number just seems to subtract a random amount.
So far I have this --
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click Me.Close() End Sub
I am constantly receiving back objects and it would be very useful be able to print out all of their properties. Is there a way in VB to get all the properties of an object and print them out (to console)?
I'm debuging an complex calculation object in my project, and I'd like to show its various and many properties in a textbox, to make my tests easier.
Can I do something like
for each p as someKindOfProperty in MyObject1 debug.print(p.name & " - " & debug.print p.value) textbox1.text = textbox1.text & vbcrlf & p.name & " - " & p.value next

How do you create a class as an object. In VB.NET 2008 please. C# is ok.
I have a form that has 100 text boxes with 100 coinciding labels. I want them hidden until another function populates the text boxes with data gathered elsewhere. The data could be between 1 and 100.
I would like one loop where I can assign the data to the correct text box, set it visible and set the label visible. I can not figure out how to do this in VB, or know if it is even possible.
Here is an example of what I would like to do
Dim i As Long = 1 Dim textbox As String = "textbox"
[code]....
I would also like to do this to hide all the items on the form in the on load event.
I'm a C# coder, and I have trouble even reading VB.NET, so please forgive what may turn out to be an incredibly dumb question. But I have some code which looks like this:
CODE:
So, ignoring the fact that the syntax is probably wrong - how does VB.NET get the Name property from sourceObject? Inspecting it at run-time reveals that sourceObject is of a type that supports a property called Name with a getter, but what does VB.NET do in this case? Is there some extra code that is being generated by the compiler to somehow cast this automagically at run-time?
I like the PHP way of doing things but, it seems I am stuck with using a Collection of Object's to store/retrieve the data I need. I have my Collection loaded with my Objects's and the code to iterate through the collection, my problem is I am unable to retrieve the "key" as it would be called in PHP (I believe in this case it is actually the name of the object).
Consider the following example:
Dim xDoc As XPathDocument = New XPathDocument(fName) Dim xNav As XPathNavigator = xDoc.CreateNavigator()
Dim sender As XPathNodeIterator
[CODE]...
As you can see, I am navigating an XML document, and creating an Object with some Key/Value pairs. The Object would look something like this if it were in JSON:
When I iterate though the Collection I can only get the value of the object, but I need the Key, in this instance I want "name","address1","city","state" to be stored in a variable for each iteration.
I would like to add the properties "visible" and "enabled" to the Items object of a combobox in VB .Net so that I can hide or disable individual line items of the combobox. I have created the class "CustomListItem" that inherits the combobox.objectcollection. I have also created the class "CustomComboBox". Now, I would like to override the custombox.Items object with my custom one.
I am new to Vb I am trying to assign to each one of the objects in an array a set of properties and I get "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim pointer As Integer = 0 depart(pointer).id = "text" depart(pointer).name = "text" 'here I get the error [Code] .....
Is it possible using Linq to select the FirstName and LastName out of all the Bloops in the collection of Bloops and return a collection of Razzies? Or am i limited to a For-Loop to do my work?
To clear up any confusion, either VB or C# will do. Also this will probably lead to me asking the question of (What about using a "Where" clause).
Is there a collection or property somewhere to determine the certificate properties that is in used with the current browser?
If I right-click on the browser object on the VB form, I can see the properties and see the certificates, etc. But is there a way to programatically get to that point? Not seeing anything clearly marked. Not sure if it isn't exposed or if I'm just not seeing it.
I have a class which extends HashSet(Of T).I am trying to evaluate some custom properties of this HashSet during execution and make decisions based on those values.
During debugging, I am pausing execution and adding a Watch on my instance of this HashSet.
The Watch only provides me with a view of the Count of the HashSet and the objects contained by the HashSet.How can I get the Watch to show me the other properties of the HashSet?
I am using VB .Net for this, so I don't have access to var or this would be a simple matter.Right now my query is as follows
[code]...
So I used this query in LinqPad to help me determine what the object would look like. I got back a IOrderQueryable(Of RSError) which then contained a IGrouping(Of String, RSError) for each grouped collection of objects returned by the query.However I ended up with the current object type of errors as IOrderedQueryable(Of IGrouping(Of String, RSError)) because of the cast error I am getting in VS.
[code]...
I'm not sure how to get rid of the VB$AnonymousType_1 Part of the returned object.Am I even on the right track here or am I missing something completely?
I am creating some reports using object datasources.in my software the user can create a list of products specifying a code, the product name, the price and the vat rate (this last two attributes will be used as suggestions when the user will place the product inside an order).When a user creates an order he can place products within it by specifying for each product the quantity and he can also override the suggested price and the vat rate.So basically i have two models to represent the products:
ProductModel (used to define product name, product code and the default suggestion for price and vat rate)OrderProductModel (used to place products within an order, specify the quantity and override the default product suggestion for price and vat number)
ProductModel:
id code name
[code]...
(suppose orderProduct is an instance of OrderProductModel)Now the question is "how to define the report rule to access to code and name?"...I am using visual studio 2010 and by reading here:[URL]they says that the syntax: =Fields!Object.Value.attribute no longer works...
I would like to assign the name of the textbox to the variable txtbxName. I know it's within eventSender as I've seen it when drilling down but how do i get it out??
