Utilize String "*" Or "" As Mathematical Operators?

Sep 17, 2010

I want to use "*" or "" as mathematical operators as such:

[code...]

this in one line without building a long, complex function? I would also like for this to be something that is already a part of the VB.NET structure and doesn't require an import.If such a solution does not exist how do I do it with a function or .dll import?

Missing Operators - Operators Are Not Visible Although They Are There Since The Program Will Work?

Feb 17, 2012

I recently installed visual studio 2010 and am using visual basic.The problem I am having is that some operators do not show up within the editor. For example the code line below
test = 3 + 5 - 6 / 7 * 4

only displays

test 3 5 - 6 / 7 * 4

the = + operators are not visible although they are there since the program will work as intended....and if I open up the .vb file in notepad everything is there. It just won't display within Visual Studio.

Evaluating Mathematical Expression In A String?

Jul 7, 2011

Is there a method that allows me to evaluate a mathematical expression in a string? Example (Not actual Code):

Input = "2+2"
Output = SomeMethod(Input)
Output = 4

Update: Nevermind, I found a way around it by using DataTable.Compute.

.net - Difference Between String.Sort And Greater Than/Less Than Operators .Net?

Sep 28, 2011

I have a simple routine to find the next object based on a name property in an un-ordered collection of objects. I go through the collection and collect all the names in a List(of String) adding any names that are > my current name, which should give a list of everything that comes after the current key. I then sort the list using the default .Sort() method on the List(of String) and take the first item in the list, which should be my next item. I do the reverse to find the previous item, add all items < my current name, sort, and take the last item in the list.

However, this method skips over some items. For example I have items named 1210, 1210-ADA, and 1210_ADA_DB. Using this method, getting the next item skips the middle item 1210-ADA and finds 1210_ADA_DB, but finding the previous item seems to work.

Utilize The Yes And No Buttons On A Messagebox?

Jun 8, 2010

I have a messagebox with a "yes" and "no" buttons. I am asking the user upon "exit" (ing) the app, if they haved saved their work. The default button is defaultbutton2 "no" and it saves the file. If user selects "yes" they have saved their work, then I need the app to close.Here's the code:

'show messagebox to save work....default button2 = 'no' then saves file....default button1 'yes' is spose to close app
MessageBox.Show(

"Have you saved your work?",

"Garman Music Pro", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question, MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button2, 0, HelpButton)

If MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button2 = MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button2

.net - Utilize Optional Parameters In Delegates?

Aug 6, 2010

However, I am wondering if there are any workarounds or plans for incorporating this feature into VB.NET in the future?What I'd like to do:

Public Delegate Function Deserializer(Of T)(ByRef Buffer() As Byte, optional ByRef BufferPosition As Integer = 0) As T
'Implementation of a func that matches the delegate'
Class A
Public Function Deserialize(Byref Buffer() as Byte, optional Byref BufferPosition as integer = 0)
....

In the absence of specifying "optional" inside the actual delegate itself, it'd at least be nice to be able to do it in the function implementation only:

Public Delegate Function Deserializer(Of T)(ByRef Buffer() As Byte, ByRef BufferPosition As Integer) As T
'Implementation of a func that matches the delegate'
Class A
Public Function Deserialize(Byref Buffer() as Byte, optional Byref BufferPosition as integer = 0)
....

At least this second way, the functions for the delegate will always have a value mapped to each parameter, although some may come from the function side and not the calling side.

Programmatically Utilize Textboxes In A Serial Manner?

May 13, 2012

let's say I create a basic windows form with 100 textboxes, and create a variable that starts at 0, and counts up to 100. How could I pseudo-effortlessly have, for example, textbox7, when the variable is at 7, display a piece of text, instead of writing 100 lines of code such as

if vara = 7 then textbox7.text = "hello"

is there a way to utilize something in the nature of LINQ, where you could somehow say,

if vara = 7 then textbox & varA & .text = "hello"

this is just an example, I know it will not work, after paying a small bit of attention to the likeliness and possibility.....

Utilize Classes That Inherit The System.Data Name Space?

Mar 9, 2009

I would like to utilize classes that inherit the System.Data name space.Specifically, I would like to have classes CarColumn, CarTable, and CarSet derived from DataColumn, DataTable, and Dataset respectively.I would like to be able to add additional properities to each class. As an example this is how I would like to reference items within the classes:

CarSet.CarTable(0).Columns(0).foo
CarSet.CarTable(0).bar

I know that VB.Net is not capable of Multi-Inheritance.

Figuring Out Which Multithreading Approach To Utilize In Current Work Project?

Apr 25, 2012

figuring out which multithreading approach to utilize in my current work project. Since I've never written a multithreaded app in my life, this is all confusing and very overwhelming.I've been assigned to take over work on a control application for a piece of test equipment in my companies R&D lab. The program has to be able to send and receive serial communications with three different devices semi-concurrently. The original program was written in VB 6 (no multithreading) and I did plan on just modding it to work with the newer products that need to be tested until it posed a safety hazard when the UI locked up due to excessive serial communications during a test. This resulted in part of the tester hardware blowing up, so I decided to try rewriting the app in VB.Net as I'm more comfortable with it to begin with and because I thought multithreading might help solve this problem.

My plan was to send commands to the other pieces of equipment from the main app thread and spin the receiving ends off into their own threads so that the main thread wouldn't lock up when timing is critical. However, I've yet to come to terms with my options. To add to my problems, I need to display the received communications in separate rich text boxes as they're received while the data from one particular device needs to be parsed by the main program, but only the text that results from the most current test (I need the text box to contain all received data though).

So far, I've investigated delegates, handling the threads myself, and just began looking into BackgroundWorkers. I tried to use delegates earlier today, but couldn't figure out a way to update the text boxes. Would I need to use a call back function to do this since I can't do it in the body of the delegate function itself? The problem I see with handling threads myself is figuring out how to pass data back and forth between the thread and the rest of the program. BackgroundWorkers, as I said, I just started investigating so I'm not sure what to think about them yet.
