Problem:Cannot get directory list for "C:\Users\Public\Public Documents" which
on my system contains "C:\Users\public\public Documents\Hewlett-Packard"
I hope I am not making some silly error again.
Have tried to use SHGetKnownFolderPath("{ED4824AF-DCE4-45A8-81E2-FC7965083634}") ' PublicDocuments
which returns this path: "C:\Users\Public\Documents".
When I use Directory.GetDirectories("C:\Users\Public\Documents") it returns these
folders:
"C:\Users\Public\My Music"
"C:\Users\Public\My Pictures"
"C:\Users\Public\My Videos"
and
"C:\Users\Public\Hewlitt-Packard"
This last one is the one I'm trying to get from "Public Documents"
It is actually in "C:\users\Public\Public Documents\Hewlitt-Packard" as shown in explorer.
The problem is I have no way of knowing which one of the above folders is
in "C:\Users\Public\Public Documents"
Trying to manually get this way:
Below is code with errors.
Dim s As String
Dim files() as String
s = "c:\Users\public\public documents" ' Error - Could not find part of the path.
' or this from google search add double quotes.
's = String.Format("{0}c:\Users\public\public documents{1}", Chr(34), Chr(34)) ' Error - Illegal chars in path
files = Directory.GetDirectories(s)
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks

Nothing. Explorer uses various link names as aliases to real directories. What you have is correct.

"C:\Users\Public\Documents"
Not "public documents" onder "public", that's redundant.

Hello !
I'm using vb.net 2017 and Entity Framework 6 with sql server 2008r2.
I have 2 tables in database :
Studnets: (ID , Name )
Status : (ID , Year , Student_ID , Active )
The table status has the status of students in a specific year. A student may have 0 or 1 status on a year . ( If a student has not a status on a year , the last status from previous years ( if exists ) is used as a status for it this year)
Now I want to have a query that load on local cache only the students that are active on a specific year.
This is my query :
Dim queryv As IEnumerable(Of students)
queryv = (From t1 In context.students order by t.Name select t)
queryv = (From t1 In queryv
Let p = t1.status.Where(Function(t2) t2.year<=year1).OrderBy(Function(t3) t3.year).LastOrDefault
Where Not IsNothing(p) AndAlso p.active = True
Select t1)
queryv.Tolist
On Database there are 2 students , one of them has an Active status this year , the other has a non-active status.
The problem is that after i excute that query , i have 2 instructions , just for testing :
Messagebox.show(queryv.count)
MessageBox.show(context.studnets.local.Count)
The results are :
1 (for queryv)
2 (for local cache )
On Local cache both students exists.
Why is this result ?
Thank you !

IEnumerable(Of students) queryv = (From t1 In context.students order by t.Name select t) Since you've stored this result in an IEnumerable(Of students), all students will be loaded from the database into the local cache when you iterate the results. The second query will then execute against the local cache.
If you only want to load the matching students into the local cache, then either use a single query:
Dim queryv As IEnumerable(Of students)
queryv = (From t1 In context.students
Let p = t1.status.Where(Function(t2) t2.year <= year1).OrderBy(Function(t3) t3.year).LastOrDefault()
Where Not IsNothing(p) AndAlso p.active = True
order by t1.Name
Select t1).ToList() or change your queryv variable to be IQueryable(Of students):
Dim queryv As IQueryable(Of students)
queryv = From t In context.students order by t.Name select t
queryv = From t1 In queryv
Let p = t1.status.Where(Function(t2) t2.year<=year1).OrderBy(Function(t3) t3.year).LastOrDefault
Where Not IsNothing(p) AndAlso p.active = True
Select t1
Dim results As IEnumerable(Of students) = queryv.ToList()

I've tried your solutions , and both produced the same error :
LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method 'Program1.status LastOrDefault[status](System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1[Program1.status])' method, and this method cannot be translated into a store expression.'
|
|
|
|
|
That error message means "LastOrDefault" isn't translatable to an SQL query. There is no SQL equivalent function for it.
You're going to have to rewrite your query to work without LastOrDefault.
|
|
|
|
|
I have used LastOrDefault in other cases , and there were no problems translating in SQL Query.
so I think there is a SQL equivalent for LastOrDefault.
|
|
|
|
|
Allow me to rephrase. That error message says the method isn't supported by the whatever the underlying provider is.
|
|
|
|
|
ok , but what's wrong with my query , and what should I do ?
|
|
|
|
|
Try this:
Dim query1 = (From t In context.students order by t.Name select t).ToList
Dim query2 = From t1 In query1
Let p = t1.status.Where(Function(t2) t2.year<=year1).OrderBy(Function(t3)
t3.year).LastOrDefault
Where Not IsNothing(p) AndAlso p.active = True
Select t1
Dim results As IEnumerable(Of students) = query2.ToList()
|
|
|
|
|
Again , on Local Cache I have all the students.The same problem as my query on my first post.
|
|
|
|
|
I don't think, I know it is not part of SQL92. It is something from a local dialect.

That's annoying. Try switching to OrderByDescending, and use FirstOrDefault.
Dim queryv As IQueryable(Of students)
queryv = From t In context.students order by t.Name select t
queryv = From t1 In queryv
Let p = t1.status.Where(Function(t2) t2.year <= year1).OrderByDescending(Function(t3) t3.year).FirstOrDefault()
Where Not IsNothing(p) AndAlso p.active = True
Select t1
Dim results As IEnumerable(Of students) = queryv.ToList()

As usual, as soon as I post, if figure it out; sorry. 
This
Me._Column = Activator.CreateInstance(GetType(T))()
Should be this
Me._Column = Activator.CreateInstance(GetType(T)).
However, now I have another problem; I'll work on this awhile.
I hope I am in the right group.
I have a Class that creates an xml file that currently works.
However, I would like to change the definition to define 1 of 2
generic types (T) when creating the file; Column1 or Column2. The code below is what
I have come up with through searches.
Everything compiles but when I create an instance of MyXmlDef I get this error.
'No Default Member Found for type 'Column1'
A search on the error says:
A late-bound index Get or Set call has been attempted.
Ensure that the object has a default property with a Get or Set, depending on which you are trying to make.
I have tried to define a Property for Column below but it doesn't fix the error.
I don't know what 'object' the error refers to.
Can someone help?
Thank you
' I am just showing the relevant code
' I have hardcoded this to Column1 to test
public Class MyXmlDef
<XmlElement("ColumnList")> _
Public _ColumnList As ColumnList(Of Column1)
Public Sub New()
Me._ColumnList = New ColumnList(Of Column1)
end sub
end Class
Class ColumnList(Of T)
<XmlElement("Column")> _
Public _Column As T
' This is test code to try and fix the error; it doesn't fix.
Public Property Column() As T
Get
Return Me._Column
End Get
Set(ByVal value As T)
Me._Column = value
End Set
End Property
Public Sub New()
' THis is the code I found on the internet to create an object from generic.
' However, it does not compile.
' Me._Column = Activator.CreateInstance(T)()
' This compiles but get the error described above for Column1.
' I do not know if this is valid or not.
Me._Column = Activator.CreateInstance(GetType(T))()
End Sub
End Class
Class Column1
<XmlElement("ProductName")> _
Public _ProductName As XMLProductName
' ... other XmlElments
Public Sub New()
'... initialize elements
end sub
End Class
Class Column2
<XmlElement("ProductName")> _
Public _ProductName As XMLProductName
' ... other different XmlElments
Public Sub New()
'... initialize elements
end sub
End Class

You just need a constraint on your generic type parameter:
Class ColumnList(Of T As New)
...
Public Sub New()
Me._Column = New T()
End Sub

Hello,
I have a program in Visual Basic 2010 32 bit now i want to convert it to visual Studio 2019 since the old 2010 is almost end of life.
I have opened the program in Visual studio 2019 there was a message that there are conversions needed and when this was finished i clicked run There is a error
--> An error occured while signing. Failed to sign bin\debug\app.publish\projectname.exe . Signtool Error: No Certificates where found that met all the given criteria.
The program was written in Visual basic 2005, i imported it in VB 2008 and at last in VB 2010 . The application is running without any problem on a Old Windows XP wich is not connected to Internet so there is no issue of security since it is stand alone but the pc is getting old and need to be replaced so when i want to use the application on new Windows 10 64 bit wich will be on the internet …
Is there a solution to import and use the program in 2019 without any special issues ? if not is there a way to do this on a visual studio 2012 ? 2013 2015 ??? otherwise i try with the older version of visual studio
If it will be the same what can i do to get it up and running on Visual Studio 2019 what i prefer.
Many thanks
best regards
D.

You probably need to resign the application as the certificate used is too old, wrong format or expired.
Go to right click on the project and open properties, there will be a tab called signing.

Hello !
I'm using VB.net 2017 , Entity framework 6.
On my form I have loaded several entities and its childs.
Mylist=context.myobjs.Include("mychilds").Tolist.
Now , another user that use the same program from another computer , make some changes in some of the records and/or some childs. He save the data to database.
On my form I have a refresh button that execute the same query as above.
The problem is that when I press this button , on my list I have no updated values from database but the old values. It seems that that query does not read the database but use the data on local cache ( Why ???)
I know that disposing the context and creating a new one will resolve this problem , but I don't want to do this because on my forms I have other records from other entities that I have loaded . And if I recreate the context I need to load again all these but I don't want to do this because only records form 1 entity and its childs can be updated from other users as I described above.
Searching in internet , I've found 2 general methods doing this :
METHOD 1
For Each en As myobj In mylist
context.Entry(en).Reload()
For Each chld In en.mychilds
context.Entry(chld).Reload()
Next
Next
METHOD 2
For Each en As myobj In mylist
For i= en.mychilds.count-1 to 0 step -1
context.Entry(en.mychilds(i)).State = EntityState.Detached
Next
context.Entry(en).State = EntityState.Detached
Next
Mylist=context.myobjs.Include("mychilds").Tolist
The problem is that both methods are very slow when mylist is very large.
Is there any other way ?
Thank you !

Use different context instances to maintain different sets of data that you can reload separately?
There's nothing that says you have to use a single context instance for everything. That way you can just destroy the context instance and create a new one, telling it to load the data you want all over again.
|
|
|
|
|
But the entities have relation between each other , how can I keep different contexts !!!!!?????
one entity is a child for other and is parent for others. How can I use these in different contexts ????
|
|

It wasn't clear in your original post if these records you're trying to reload were related to the other entities or not.
There is no fast way to do this. You could have the context execute a SQL query to reload just the records you want, but the context is still going to go through each and every result record to update the cached objected.
I think your design needs to be reconsidered if you have a user making changes that forces other users to reload a large amount of data. Minimize the data each user is caching as much as possible.

This is what i'm asking : a query to reload all the records from an entity.
If some of objects inside myobj are updated from other users , I need a query to reload all the objects in myobj from database. But I can't find a such query to do this so I have to reload one by one as on my 2 methods described in my first question.
It's strange why there's no a method on entity framework to force reloading all object from an entity from database and not read on local cache. !!!!!
