Question about Implementing VB 6.0 Interface in vb.net

Hi,

I have an interface in vb 6.0. It has a property set member, which takes a
parameter by reference. When I try to implement this interface in my vb.net
project it gives me an error saying that "cannot implement property set
because there is no matching property on interface". I think .NET does not
allow parameter to be passed ByRef in property statements.

here is my property set statement in vb 6.0 interface called IName

Property Set Name(ByRef objName as object)

End Property

VB.NET code looks like this

Public WriteOnly Property Name() as System.IntPtr implements IName.Name
Set (ByVal value as System.IntPtr)

end set
End Property

There is an underline below IName.Name. When I put my mouse over it then it
says "Cannot implement IName.Name because there is no matching property on
Interface IName". I tried changing the System.IntPtr to System.Object but it
gives the same result. I cannot change vb 6.0 interface to accept parameter
ByVal instead of ByRef because then, I have to change all other existing
components that already are implementing this interface.

Your help is appreciated.

Thanks

In a recent thread, RKC (correctly, I believe), took issue with my use of multiple parameters in a Property Let procedure to pass dimensional arguments on the basis that, although it works, it's not obvious how the code works if you don't know the intricacies of the Property Let/Get syntax. Likewise, I dislike (and code to minimize the use of) the VB/VBA syntax of returning a value by referring to the function name as if it were a...

Hi Straight to the point - I don't understand why System.Array derives from IList (given the methods/properties actually on IList). When designing an interface you specify a contract. Deriving from an interface and only implementing some of it means something is wrong: either the interface specification is wrong e.g. not minimal or the derivation is wrong e.g. the type can't actually honour this contract.

I have a question pertaining to the implementation of an interface's contract, specifically why in some interfaces the InterfaceName.method is required when other times just the Interfaces method name will work. For example, When using ICollection.CopyTo Method I can implement the CopyTo method as follows (notice the interface name is omitted): public void CopyTo(Array array, int index) {

I am puzzled, what is the purpose of an interface? How does it work, what i mean is how does the compiler treats this? Why when we talk about separating user interface from business logic, an interface is declared, what is it's purpose? thanks, BRAMOIN *** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***

I have a static event declared in a C++ ref class, that can then be handled in a VB app. I'm trying to expose the static event through the interface that the C++ ref class implements so the VB app can use the interface as preferred.
