Hi Adrian,
Hi
sorry for such a simple question!
I want to be able to create a structure or is call a class in VB.net?
eg test1
I want it to have a number of elements that I refer to as
test1.username, test1.password...
But I cant think how to do this.
Ugh - Well, first of all I recommend you read a book about object oriented
programming ... welll, at least a book aboutt VB.NET. First I must make some
things clear here:
- a struct is not a class - a class is a reference type, a struct is a value
type. They behave different.
- What you need to do is to create a class, put some fields in it and then
create properties for the fields.
- The fields of a class are never accessed from outside the class
What you would need is this:
Public Class Test
Private _userName As String = String.Empty
Private _passWord As String = String.Empty
Public Property UserName() As String
Get
Return Me._userName
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As String)
Me._userName = Value
End Set
End Property
Public Property Password() As String
Get
Return Me._passWord
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As String)
Me._passWord = Value
End Set
End Property
End Class
After that, to access the Properties, you need to create an object of the
class, for example in a Buttons Click-Event:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim testObject As New Test
testObject.UserName = ...
End Sub
That shoud do the trick :-)).
