what is the Equivalent of a Static class in VB.Net. Is it Modules?And When i used one of the C# to VB.Net conversion tools then the code "Public Static class Class1 " was converted to "Public NotInheritable Class Class1"
View 1 RepliesIf I have a module in a VB.Net class library, will it's visibility be limited to the assembly? What I'm looking for is the VB.Net equivalent of a C# internal static class.
View 1 RepliesIs there a Java equivalent - specifically on Android - for VB.NET's Static keyword? For those not familiar with VB.NET, take the following code snippet...
Sub MyFunc()
Static myvar As Integer = 0
myvar += 1

I'm wondering why I can't create an association from a class to a static class in the class diagram editor of VS. Any reason for this?
View 1 RepliesI've got a shared class (static in C#) which mostly carries some settings data that any class in the application can read and sometimes write. Also there are some static properties which holds some internal states.
Now I want to revert this class to initial stage of it. With all default variables etc. Assume that the user want to reset the current state and start over without restarting the application.
In a singleton model I'd simply renew it with something like this :
Public Sub Reset()
_Instance = New MyClass()
End Sub
However this is not possible in a Shared class. Or should I switch back to Singleton?
I have a C# dll and want to use it in VB.NET. I'm using C# 2008 Express and VB 2008 Express. I have added a reference in a VB project to the C# dll. When I create an instane of a class in the C# dll, it gives the following error messsage: "Type 'RF.RabinFingerprint' has no constructors". My C# dll code:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;[code].......
I am trying to convert following code into a VB equivalent so that I can use it with threading my forms and controls.

This questions is for VBers, it's irrelevant in C#.
In VB, when you create a module, all it's fucntions and members are available in the scope without need to type the module name, just like all the VB functions (Rnd, Mid, IIf etc.).
I want to create a module but I should have to explicitly write it's name to access it's members, i.e. it shouldn't be loaded to the scope like a namespace.
Update
For example, I have a Module of extension methods, I don't want all it's members to show up on the scope and in the intellisense.
I want it to be available only by instance.ExtensionMethod().
Suppose we have a class like:
Public Class Question
Private Shared _field as Integer = CrazyIntegersRepository.GetOne()
' Some other useful things go here
End Class
And the method GetOne throws an exception... How can we manage that? Is a good practice to rewrite that into a static constructor? When is the GetOne method going to be executed if we leave it there in the inline _field declaration?
I need a static variable to get a ListItemCollection from a List control (I can do this, but if I don't set it as Shared It's not preserving the values as it should). The thing is that this class is a SharePoint webpart, so I most probably will be using the webpart more than once, and I need this variable to be unique to each webpart, which shared doesn't accomplish.I tried everything you can imagine. I placed a Static variable within a Sub (shared and not shared), I tried it with Properties (also Shared and not shared)...
View 3 RepliesI have a module with generic constants, subs and functions.I would like to be able to use the module in multiple projects in one solution.I also want it to work like the class System.Math, where you do not need to declare and instance of the class before you can reference it.[code]I want to be able to call ClassLibrary1.MyGenerics.Half() just like I can call System.Math.Abs()
View 10 RepliesI hate to see the name of the class used as a string parameter like "FileDownloader" in the code, and I would like to use something like this FileDownloader.Name(), where FileDownloader is name of the class.Only problem is that I can't find out how to do that without instantiating object or creating a static method..Is there a way to get a class name in .net without having the object instance and without creating a static method that returns the name of the class?
View 4 RepliesI want to store a fairly large amount of static data in a class library.I have used a library before that does this, containing info for thousands of items. The person who made the library got that info from a database and somehow stored it in the library such that you could access it in a variety of ways using different methods. (ID, Name, etc)
View 5 Replieshow to word this, as it is it's complex to understand the concept of the idea. Basically, I'm trying to use an interpreter pattern, based off of the code I used in php. In php the code is:
abstract class Expression {
private static $keycount=0;
private $key;
[code]......
The problem I'm having is that the static variable is blank for each child using it. How can I have it where one child increases the keycount,and ALL of the children have the new keycount variable?
I would like to understand the Pro & Cons in using the commonly used methods via Singleton class against Shared (Static) members of a class in VB.Net. It could be in terms Time, Space complexity or best practices. I have a BankAccount class with methods doing some business logic.
GetBalance()
GetLast5Credits()
GetMiniStatement()

Under Visual Basic 2010, I am trying to define a specific instance of a static method that was created as a Java class. I have a vendor supplied dll added in as a reference.[code]...
But, I can't seem to define a specific instance of this method. Using "IntegrationMethod.getIntegrationMode()"always returns a value of zero.
There doesn't appear to be any way to "setIntegrationMode" to a specific value.
The documentatoin for this Class as provided by the vendor are shown below.
When I asked the vendor for assistance, their response was: "
Our javadocs for the IntegrationMethod class show that we provide three predefined instances of the IntegrationMethod class[code]...
I'm trying to convert something from C# to VB.NET and I'm having trouble finding an equivlent in VB.NET to C#'s yield keyword. I realize 'yield' is not a convertable keyword to VB.NET, so can someone please show me how I would implement this code in VB.NET. I got all of it converted over except for the implemented GetEnumerator() function. It is simply a class that implements CollectionBase and IEnumerable (to make it LINQ worthy):
[Serializable()]
public partial class Customers : CollectionBase, System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<BusinessLayer.Customer>

View 1 RepliesAs discribed on this MSDN pageWhat would be the PHP equivalent? Is it even possible to do the three things listed on that page under remarks Streams involve three fundamental operations:You can read from streams. Reading is the transfer of data from astream into a data structure, such as an array of bytes.You can write to streams. Writing is the transfer of data from a datastructure into a stream.Streams can support seeking. Seeking is the querying and modifying ofthe current position within a stream. Seek capability depends on thekind of backing store a stream has. For example, network streams haveno unified concept of a current position, and therefore typically donot support seeking.

I am rewriting a C# class in VB. The C# class has a static constructor in it:
static Class()
{
...
}
which, through the Call Stack, I found is called by the main window's InitializeComponent() method.Everywhere I've looked has told me that the corresponding static constructor in VB is just:Shared Sub New()
but this method is never invoked. Am I creating my VB static constructor right? Is it likely something else that has nothing to do with my static constructor?
I am writing a code for a webapplication in vb.net. I am using a shared variable in the vb code.
Consider the static variable value is 3 for a user who hits the web application. Again when another user hits the same web application, whether the static variable will be 3 again or whether he will have a separate value for static variable for his session?
If Class X is within the scope of Class Y, is X a subclass of Y?If Class A is a sub Class of B, then is Class B considered a super class of A?if Class C inherits Class D is Class D a superclass or parent of Class C?if Class E extends Class F then we can consider Class E a child of F?if Class G inherits Class H and is within the scope of Class I then who is the parent of Class G? Classes that inherits Class J and classes that are within Class J are all sub classes of Class J?
