What naming convention do you use so that you can easily find your public functions/routines in intellisense. I love intellisense like my first born but they keep adding stuff to it and it is getting harder and harder to find what I am looking for. Of course we are always adding things to that make it harder to find things.

The usage of namespaces can signigicantly reduces the number of items that are present in your intellilist. A naming-conventions' usage should be readability, not discoverability.

Thank you that makes sense.
Another somewhat related question I see the big companies compile their own framework as dlls which makes them easy to handle when using them so the question is if I am sharing code across multiple projects but it is addedto almost constantly should I be compiling it as dll files and if so are their any performance benfit/loss in doing so. So what I am saying is will the code run faster as a dll than the code that is compiled in the executable also this code is shared by executables that will probably be ran concurrently I don't know if that makes a difference.
Thanks again.

There's not much difference once the library is loaded. It might take a bit longer if you start to load libraries dynamically, especially if Windows' needs to search it's path. Static linking would mean that it loads the library at the start of the application (like it would be if it were part of the executable)
Libraries that are shared amongst applications would best be situated in the GAC[^].

I am sure if you stick to the various guidelines you cannot go far wrong. Obviously your employer/or any project may have specific guidelines which you must adhere to, but i am sure they will soon tell you if they exist.

My answer would be about simplicity. Use namespacing to classify, and for the love of god name your methods to accurately reflect what they do and don't have the methods do any more.
i.e. DO NOT END UP WITH DoThisAndThatAndEverythingElseInHerePlease

Hi,
I am putting together an ActiveX DLL for a web application that i am working on, the application is developed in Classic ASP and VB6.
In the DLL i am gaining access to the Intrinsic ASP objects using the Microsoft Active Server Pages Object Library and GetObjectContext().
The problem is that when i call MyResponse.End in the DLL, execution simply continues past
MyResponse.Write "I am here!! "
MyResponse.End
MyResponse.Write "And I'm here too!! " --> this line still executes in the DLL
Is there a reason for this, have i missed a setting on the webserver or is this an issue with using the Intrinsic ASP objects in a COM DLL environment.
Regards
Neil

Good morning,
may somebody please be so kind and tell me how to autocomplete eventhandler signatures with VB?
I am used to the C# way like typing:
this.btnClickMe.Click += new EventHandler(handleTheEvent)
After the += I only need to tab the Tab key twice and get the handler implementation with the right signature.
In VB I can hover over the event and see the signature of the related handler, but I just do not know how to autocomplete this...
Is that possible? Not that I am lazy (of course not, who would have guessed that), I just want to save some time 
thanks in advance and ejoy your weekends,
best regards
Andy

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
Andy

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
