Copying objects that support ICloneable interface

[Venkat Venkataramanan]

Hello:

I have an object Users that implements the ICloneable
interface.

I am trying to pass an instance of this object, foUser
from one form into a second form ByRef.

Dim formLogin As New frmLogin(foUser )

The second form creates a local instance of this object.
When all the business rules are obeyed, I have the
following statement that copies this local copy to the
instance that was passed in Byref:

foUser = CType(loUser, Users.Users).Cl one

But when the control gets passed to the first form, it
looses all the values.

Any ideas on what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks.

What does the constructor of frmLogin look like? Where and how did you
declare foUser? How do you pass the new object to the calling form?

Hi Venkat,

Can you show me how do you implement the Clone method of
ICloneable interface?

After the statement foUser = CType(loUser, Users.Users).Cl one, does your
foUser get all the value of the loUser object?(Before returing to the first
form)
