There is no equivilent key combination in VB.NET to do this.
Are you kmaking a class exposing Custom Events? Or what...
I say this because you don't normally see the EventHandler class being used in VB.NET unless you're making Custom Events in controls.
|
|
|
|
|
The thing is that I develop in C#, creating custom classes/controls and stuff alike which (as you already guessed) expose a couple of events.
My colleague is developing in VB and there are times when I have to deal with the code written in VB.
I was just searching for a way to implement the custom events of the controls without having to check the documentation for the eventhandler signatures, which are sometimes quite complex.
Yeah, might be lazy 
I figured out that I can see the signature in the tooltip of the event, but when using "Handles" I just expected to get the signature automatically somehow...
thanks for the reply and have a great week,
cheers

If you're consuming a control, then you can get the header written for you by picking the control from the left drop down at the top of the code editor window, then the event you want in the right drop down. Other than that, I hate it too...

I mostly use classes, but there are some controls, so I'll go for your suggestion with the dropdowns.
Thanks a lot Dave, I really appreciate your helt

Experts,
I have a textbox which will generate a set of random numbers, e.g 10 , 4 , 6 , 3 , 2 , 1 ....
What i need to do is to basically split this textbox up into lots of textboxes. I was originally using e.g
txt1.text = mid(txt0.text, 1,txt0.textlength - 7)
this was ok if you where using numbers below 10 but now i am not, so i have split my numbers using commas but how do i sort them into the differnet text boxes using the commas as splitting points?
Many thanks
Dan

string.Split() is the prime choice for splitting strings by a special character of your choice.
BTW: you would get into trouble if your numbers would exceed 999, your numbers include thousands separator, and your app were used by people using comma as a thousands separator (lots of West-European countries do this).

Hi Dan, How's it going. Why don't you generate your list of random numbers into a List(of Integer). Then you can use the List(of Integer) to populate the rest of the text boxes. That way you don't need to split anything. Start using the powers of the .Net Framework and you will find programming so much easier, I promise.
Cheers

I'm using webclient or web.downloaddata to download a url. Sometimes the correct source isn't downloaded (same thing happens with webclient or web.downloaddata), although it always appears properly from a browser. Randomly, some parts of the source is not downloaded. Any ideas would be appreciated.

|
|
A single file, or multiple? Could it be that the server is redirecting some parts of the download to another server?

This is a piece of code that i am using to test a possible solution to a given problem.
Dim x As Button
x = New Button
AddHandler x.Click, AddressOf ClickSubRoutine
x.Name = ButtonText
x.Location = New Point(x + 100, y)
Me.Controls.Add(x)
The problem is that i have a button control on the form, when a user clicks on this button many other buttons are created from a list in a file.
AddHandler x.Click, AddressOf ClickSubRoutine
My question is how can i assign the handler to a function name defined from this list without having to do some if name = statements? is it possible?
Thanks
Simon

To be honest, I don't fully understand what you are asking here, but if i get it ,then you want to create a load of buttons on the fly, from a list kept in a text file or something similar, and you also want each button created to have the same click event. To do this does not require the name of the control as you need to assign the handler when the button is created. Open up a new project and put a button on the form. In the buttons click event put the following code
Dim index As Integer = 0
Dim intHeightDiff As Integer = Button1.Height + 5
For Each ButtonName As String In lstButtonNames
Dim btnNew As New Button
btnNew.Name = lstButtonNames(index)
AddHandler btnNew.Click, AddressOf ClickRoutine
btnNew.Parent = Me
btnNew.Visible = True
btnNew.Top = intHeightDiff + (intHeightDiff * index) + Button1.Top
btnNew.Left = Button1.Left
btnNew.Width = Button1.Width
btnNew.Text = btnNew.Name
index += 1
Next
then create the function that you want to assign to all the buttons
Private Sub ClickRoutine(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
MsgBox(CType(sender, Button).Name)
End Sub
that should give you a load of buttons all with the same click handler
|

Sorry about the clearness of the question
what i want to do on the fly is build up some buttons, but apply and addhandler to a specific function
for example
button1 will execute code at function1
button2 will execute code at function2
button3 will execute code at function1
but the names and function names will be determined at runtime.
I hope this is more clear for you and thanks for helping

I think I get the idea. How about this. Create a class called, say, MyButton like so ,
Private Class MyButton
Private strName As String
Private strFunction As String
Public Property Name() As String
Get
Return strName
End Get
Set(ByVal value As String)
strName = value
End Set
End Property
Public Property MyFunction() As String
Get
Return strFunction
End Get
Set(ByVal value As String)
strFunction = value
End Set
End Property
End Class
on your form declare a list of these to collect your data into, call it buttons. Fill up the list maybe in your form Load event like this
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Buttons = New List(Of MyButton)
For i As Integer = 0 To 4 'obviously get your info from file but i created this for demo
Dim newButton As New MyButton
newButton.Name = "Button " & i
If i Mod 2 = 0 Then newButton.MyFunction = "ClickRoutine1" Else newButton.MyFunction = "ClickRoutine2"
Buttons.Add(newButton)
Next
End Sub
create the functions that are needed by the buttons i.e
Private Sub ClickRoutine1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
MsgBox("Presented to you by ClickRoutine1 through " & CType(sender, Button).Name)
End Sub
Private Sub ClickRoutine2(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
MsgBox("Presented to you by ClickRoutine2 through " & CType(sender, Button).Name)
End Sub
then in your Button1 click event you create the buttons like this
that should get you where you want to go I think,

You can do this a bit more cleanly by storing the delegate in MyButton.
Private Class MyButton
Private strName As String
Private clkHandler As System.EventHandler
Public Property Name() As String
Get
Return strName
End Get
Set(ByVal value As String)
strName = value
End Set
End Property
Public Property Handler() As System.EventHandler
Get
Return clkHandler
End Get
Set(ByVal value As System.EventHandler)
clkHandler = value
End Set
End Property
End Class
Private Sub ClickRoutine1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
MsgBox("Presented to you by ClickRoutine1 through " & CType(sender, Button).Name)
End Sub
Private Sub ClickRoutine2(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
MsgBox("Presented to you by ClickRoutine2 through " & CType(sender, Button).Name)
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles Me.Load
Buttons = New List(Of MyButton)
For i As Integer = 0 To 4
Dim newButton As New MyButton
newButton.Name = "Button " & i
If i Mod 2 = 0 Then
newButton.Handler = AddressOf ClickRoutine1
Else
newButton.Handler = AddressOf ClickRoutine2
End If
Buttons.Add(newButton)
Next
End Sub
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles Button1.Click
Dim index As Integer = 0
Dim intHeightDiff As Integer = Button1.Height + 5
For Each newButton As MyButton In Buttons
Dim btnNew As New Button
btnNew.Name = newButton.Name
AddHandler btnNew.Click, newButton.Handler
btnNew.Parent = Me
btnNew.Visible = True
btnNew.Top = intHeightDiff + (intHeightDiff * index) + Button1.Top
btnNew.Left = Button1.Left
btnNew.Width = Button1.Width
btnNew.Text = btnNew.Name
index += 1
Next
End Sub

Nice.
I might be hijacking this with a followup question, so sorry in advance if this is a no-no...
Could this be taken a step further by getting rid of the if / case part where the AddressOf is attached?
That way it would become even more robust seeing the code will need no further modification to incorporate new handlers.
It might be simple but I just don't see it yet (mainly because I didn't sleep enough and the whole office is smelling of paint)

The OP originally stated that he was getting the info from a file. I assumed it was a text file where the name of the button was stored together with it's function name, and that they would be retrieved in one operation, and then assigned on the fly. In the form load event in the examples sited by me, the if i mod 2 ... was used for demo purposes only. In Gregorys example, where he assigns an eventhandler directly to a property, you would still need to decide, when you retrieve the info from the file, what function is the right one, as all you have is a string representing the name of the function, and not an instance of the function itself, if you get me. Therefore you would still need to put in the Select Case On Assignment
. To illustrate this, Take this example
So in essence there is really no difference between the way Gregory and myself implemented this.
Happy Coding

No discussion about the intent of the OP, or the differences between your example and the one by Gregory.
Where to retrieve the info from wasn't my concern, I might not have made that clear. It was more to find a way to make the Routines configurable as well. Although the paint smell in the office is still heavily present, found that Reflection puts me on the way quite well...
Dim lobj As Object = Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetType("DummyLib.clsTestingTheStateHandler,DummyLib"))
Dim lass As Reflection.Assembly = Reflection.Assembly.Load("DummyLib")
Dim ltype As Type = lass.GetType("DummyLib.clsTestingTheStateHandler")
Dim lmi As Reflection.MethodInfo = ltype.GetMethod("ThisIsTheHandler")
Dim lblnState As Boolean = DirectCast(lmi.Invoke(lobj, New Object() {phtParameters}), Boolean)
Do you know of possible other alternatives to achieve something along these lines?
Enjoying the coding

If you want to avoid using AddHandler and RemoveHandler manually, you can create a class for your button which includes appropriate event handlers and one or more delegates supplied by the parent which should be invoked when the button is pushed. These delegates could take parameters beyond what would normally be supplied in a Click event.

Assume that you load a table into the datagrid. It has some column like id, name, address etc. You add a checkbox into the datagrid using grid template. So if you want to fill / get bool value you need to do something like:
foreach (GridViewRow row in datagridView.Rows)
{
CheckBox cbYesOrNo = (CheckBox)row.FindControl("cbYesNo");
if (cbYesOrNo.Checked)
{
}
else
{
}
}
