Hi,
Can someone point me in the right direcion here. I have been a hobbyist
programmer for some time with VB6 and am moving to Vb.Net. I am afraid that
in the past I did not uderstand too well how to uses Classes, but realise
that I need to do this to use Vb.Net. Hence I have 'bitten the bullet and am
trying hard. I seem to be making soem headawy, adn I can see the advantages
re encapsulation and code re-use.
Now to my question - I have created a user control and need to communicate
with a Class that I have written. If I placed the Calss inside the control
then I would have no problem in accessing a Property or a method in the
Class. However I do need that Class to be available from my program itself,
so I should not be placing this in the control. I have done a lot of
searching and eading about this to try to figure it out, and am coming to
the conclusion that I should be learning about Delegates to achive this.
So - please help to point me in the right direction - should I be looking at
Delegates or should I be looking at Events? I started looking at Events, and
Delegates to me look a simpler concept for me to grasp.
Can anyone give me any very SIMPLE examples of how I can invoke a method or
set a property from another Class? SOrry if I have this all wrong - I seem
to be on a very steep learning curve at the moment, and although some things
are 'clicking' into place, I am not fully there yet!!
Many thanks

If you want to access an object, you need a reference. If it's not
available, you have to make it available. Where when and how depends on the
circumstances. Usually, the reference is passed as an argument of a
procedure. Could you please explain what's the purpose of the class and the
Usercontrol and what they do? I'd need this information to find the best
solution. I guess, you won't need Delegates.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
Here is the code in...

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
