Hi All,
This is driving me nuts, especially since I have this working for
my main application with no problem. I suspect it might be due to
Namespace conflicts, but I'm not positive. Any help is vastly
appreciated.
This is part of a routine for switching between using local and remote
business logic libraries. Essentially, it's a fairly simple
late-binding routine. However, When I try to cast oLocalObject to
the IMyInterface, I get an Invalid Casting exception. However, If I
use early-binding (not an option, unfortunatly) this casting works.
The casting also works in the Remoting option (not included here).
Here's how the objects look:
(Yes, both assemblies share the same namespace. This is needed to
have the interface work for remoting)
MyApp.exe
MyCompany.MyApp .IMyInterface
MyApp.dll
MyCompany.MyApp .IMyInterface
MyCompany.MyApp .CMyClass (Implements MyCompany.MyApp .IMyInterface)
Code:
Dim oType As Type, oMod As [Module]
Dim oLocalObject As Object
Dim oReturnValue As MyCompany.MyApp .IMyInterface
oMod = [Assembly].LoadFile(msLib Path +
"MyApp.dll").Ge tModules(False) (0)
oType = oMod.GetType("M yCompany.MyApp. CMyClass", False)
oLocalObject = Activator.Creat eInstance(oType )
Try
'This is Just added to prove the point that it should
be able to cast this.
If oLocalObject.Ge tType.GetInterf aces(0).FullNam e =
"MyCompany.MyAp p.IMyInterface" Then _
oReturnValue = CType(oLocalObj ect,
MyCompany.MyApp .IMyInterface)
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show (ex.Message)
End Try
Return oReturnValue
TIA,

Why is the interface declared in both assemblies? It should be declared in
one place only. You may need a third assembly: MyAppInterfaces .dll to hold
the interface definitions and be referenced from each of the other
assemblies.

Andy, MyApp.exe MyCompany.MyApp .IMyInterface
MyApp.dll MyCompany.MyApp .IMyInterface
So you have two definitions of the IMyInterface? That would explain
why it doesn't work. You have to use the same type.

Hello,
I saw on a couple of recent posts people saying that casting the return
value of malloc is bad, like:
d=(double *) malloc(50*sizeof(double));
why is this bad? I had always thought (perhaps mistakenly) that the
purpose of a void pointer was to cast into a legitimate date type. Is
this wrong? Why, and what is considered to be correct form?

Can someone explain how to cast an object to a specific type during runtime?
// This line of code tells me the objects type.
System.Type type = System.Type.GetType("string of the type");
// This line of code compares the objects, but the compiler doesn't like my
casting.
return ((type)object1 <= (type)object2) ? true : false;
The compiler doesn't like my casting of (type)object1 or (type)object2.
