Houston is in no way local to Nashville. You're also about 9 years too late. On Mon, Nov 25, 2019 at 8:10 AM Mark Chan wrote: > > > We have displayport to hdmi adapters cables. we have warehouse in Houston. > 在 2010年8月15日星期日 UTC+8上午5:55:10,schu...@gmail.com写道: >> >> Jonathan Sheehan wrote: >> >

[nlug] [OT] Visual Basic Question

2019-11-25 Thread john
I am trying to code a Visual Basic 2019 console app that makes use of the StreamReader object to read text from a file. According to the Microsoft documentation for the StreamReader object, when it is initialized, you pass a string with the path of the file to be opened, such as Using reader as

You probably need to create a new STREAM object first (using the STRING pathname). I’m not VB oriented, but that would be my initial guess. What does Intellisense say about the StreamReader’s argument types? From: nlug-talk@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of j...@jfeldredge.com Sent: Monday, Nove

Intellisense says to use a string argument. My guess is that I have run into a managed-code vs. unmanaged-code issue, and that a literal argument is being silently cast to the proper managed-code string type, but I haven’t found any documentation saying how to declare a managed-code string.

That is a bit odd, but then again, M$ VS. I wonder, though, unless it’s overloaded (STRING being one of them), it would sort of make sense to me as I normally thing of a STREAM being one of several source input types. Of course, VS has never been known to be buggy or lacking in Intellisense! :)

My guess would be that because you're not explicitly providing a class name for the function, the compiler is "guessing" the wrong class. So, instead, you might want to tell it explicitly which function you want, i.e. instead of: Using reader as StreamReader = new StreamReader(thisFile) try Usin

OK, I found a work-around. I have to use an additional, undocumented step. Using fs As FileStream = New FileStream(thisFile, FileMode.Open) Using reader As StreamReader = New StreamReader(fs) fileText = reader.ReadLine() End Using End Using I found examples of code onlin

Good deal! I’ve found that devops forum sites like Stack Exchange, Stack Overflow, CodeWorks, Quora and Spiceworks always seem to do more for me than most “official” MSDN .Net/Class “documentation”! :) I sometimes think the tech writers for M$ are, for the most part, really only writing for each
