How can pass collection list between aspx pages? - vb.net

I tried to create list of object type and get through session the class type list from another page,but it is not working simply coming out of the code when assigment is done.
Public Sub GetvalueContains(ByVal txtFilterText As String, ByVal strColPropertyName As String, ByVal collectionName As String)
Dim FilteredAgentsList As New List(Of Object)
FilteredAgentsList = CType(HttpContext.Current.Session("FilteredAgentsList"), Object)
AgentList = Session("AgentList")
FilteredAgentsList = CType(HttpContext.Current.Session("AgentList"), Object)
Dim FilteredAgentsListdetails As New List(Of Object)
FilteredAgentsListdetails = HttpContext.Current.Session("FilteredAgentsListdetails")
Dim indx As Integer = 0
Dim indexx As Integer = collectionName.IndexOf("_")
indexx = indexx + 1
Dim str As String = collectionName.Substring(indexx, collectionName.Length - indexx)
Dim grdagents As GridView = HttpContext.Current.Session("grdAgents")
If FilteredAgentsListdetails.Count > 0 Then
FilteredAgentsList = FilteredAgentsListdetails
End If
Dim AgentListTemp As List(Of Object) = HttpContext.Current.Session("AgentListTemp")
AgentListTemp = FilteredAgentsList
'FilteredAgentsListdetails = New List(Of Agents)
strColPropertyName = GetPropertyNameAtIndex(AgentListTemp, Convert.ToInt32(hdncellindex.Value))
txtFilterText = txtFilterText.Replace("*", "")
Dim resultList As IEnumerable(Of Object)
resultList = AgentListTemp.Where(Function(x) x.[GetType]().GetProperty(strColPropertyName).GetValue(x, Nothing).ToString().StartsWith(txtFilterText))
'AgentListTemp = CType(resultList.ToList(), List(Of Agents))
'FilteredAgentsListdetails = AgentListTemp
grdagents.DataSource = Nothing
grdagents.DataBind()
grdagents.DataSource = resultList
grdagents.DataBind()
End Sub
how to get the session value in above code?or any other method to pass list from one page to other.

How to pass dynamically created type to function?

I am trying to get data from SQL query and convert to List of objects.
From SQL each time I get dataset with variable number of columns and different names of columns.
So I am trying to write some universal code to get and convert this dataset.
Dim MySqlStr As String
MySqlStr = "exec someStoredProcedure "
Try
MyAdapter = New SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter(MySqlStr, Declarations.MyNETConnStr)
MyAdapter.SelectCommand.CommandTimeout = 600
MyAdapter.Fill(MyDs)
'-----Dictionary of columns with types
Dim MyDict = New Dictionary(Of String, Type)
For i As Integer = 0 To MyDs.Tables(0).Columns.Count - 1
MyDict.Add(MyDs.Tables(0).Columns(i).ToString, MyDs.Tables(0).Columns(i).DataType)
Next

VB API Result converts decimal numbers

I have a simple API Post like this
<HttpPost>
Public Function testPost() As IEnumerable(Of sp_select)
Dim _tmplist As New List(Of sp_select)
Dim _Content = jsonSerializer.Deserialize(Of myparams)(Request.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result)
Dim mandant = _Content.mandant
Using mycon As New dal_globalDataContext
Dim _result = mycon.sp_select(CType(mandant, Decimal)).ToList
If Not _result.Any = False Then
For Each entry In _result
_tmplist.Add(entry)
Next
End If
End Using
Return _tmplist
End Function
All good. But If I parse the result like this:
Public Sub testPost()
Dim client = New System.Net.Http.HttpClient()
client.BaseAddress = New Uri("http://localhost:62068")
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Clear()
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(New System.Net.Http.Headers.MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"))
Dim _datasource As IEnumerable(Of Object) = Nothing
Dim _content = New With {.mandant = 0}
Dim serializer As New JavaScriptSerializer()
Dim arrayJson As String = serializer.Serialize(_content)
Dim responseTask = client.PostAsync("/actionapi/dataSource/testPost/", New StringContent(arrayJson))
responseTask.Wait()
Dim result = responseTask.Result
If result.IsSuccessStatusCode Then
Dim readTask = result.Content.ReadAsAsync(Of IList(Of sp_select))()
readTask.Wait()
_datasource = readTask.Result
Any decimal property of the class has an decimal point. So 1 will be 1.0
Do you know how to prevent this behaviour?

How to get a constructor for a Public class to run

I have a Public class with a Public Shared Dictionary in vb.net. The constructor does not seem to be running. I have a breakpoint in the constructor which does not break. Also when I make a database update, the new values do not show up in the dictionary.
Public Class SkywalkerPolicy
Public Shared CustomPolicies As Dictionary(Of String, String)
Shared Sub New()
CustomPolicies = New Dictionary(Of String, String)
Dim bvin As String = String.Empty
Dim title As String = String.Empty
Dim poldescr As String = String.Empty
Dim dtResult As New DataTable("Result")
dtResult.Locale = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture
Dim request As New DataRequest
request.Command = "sky_PolicyDictionary_s"
request.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
request.Transactional = False
Dim result As DataSet
result = SqlDataHelper.ExecuteDataSet(request)
If Not result Is Nothing Then
If result.Tables.Count() > 0 Then
dtResult = result.Tables(0)
For Each row In dtResult.AsEnumerable
bvin = row.Item(1)
title = row.Item(0)
poldescr = row.Item(2)
If CustomPolicies.ContainsKey(title) Then
CustomPolicies(title) += poldescr
Else
CustomPolicies.Add(title, poldescr)
End If
Next
End If
End If
End Sub
End Class
When I access the dictionary, any changes I've made to the data do not show up.
Dim pol As String = SkywalkerPolicy.CustomPolicies("Orders and Shipping Details")
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get the constructor to work?
Or should I have an additional Sub which duplicates initializing the dictionary before I use it?
Thanks
I have a workaround with an Update routine which I call just before accessing the dictionary. But I am still unclear why I can't step through the constructor. So if anyone can answer the original question, I would appreciate an update. Thank you.

Converting String to Structure

I am successfully converted structure data to string here in plain and (as suggested) in XML serialized way which obviously every has it's own good and bad side effects.
This is sample structure:
Public Structure myList
Dim a As String
Dim b As Integer
Dim c As Double
End Structure
Dim myInstance As New myList
myInstance.a = "Nemo"
myInstance.b = 10
myInstance.c = 3.14
Now I have 2 functions for converting structure data to string:
Dim xString As String = oStructToString(myInstance)
Public Function oStructToString(ByVal obj As Object) As String
Dim structString As String = ""
Dim i As Integer
Dim myType As Type = obj.GetType()
Dim myField As System.Reflection.FieldInfo() = myType.GetFields()
For i = 0 To myField.Length - 1
structString &= myField(i).GetValue(obj)
If i = myField.Length - 1 Then Exit For
structString &= Convert.ToChar(161)
Next i
Return structString
End Function
Dim xString As String = xStructToString(myInstance)
Public Function xStructToString(ByVal obj As Object) As String
Dim x As New Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer(obj.GetType)
Dim sw As New IO.StringWriter()
x.Serialize(sw, obj)
Return sw.ToString
End Function
But I can't get data back from string to structure.
Public Function oStringToStruct(ByVal xString As String) As Object
So I can call:
Dim mySecondInstance As New myList = oStringToStruct(xString)
Or
Dim mySecondInstance As New myList = xStringToStruct(xString)
How to do that?
So far I came to this:
Public Function xStringToStruct(ByVal xString As String) As Object
Dim x As New Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer() ''<- what here?
Dim sr As New IO.StringReader(xString)
Return x.Deserialize(sr)
End Function
and this...
By help of har07 still one error remains here...
Public Function oStringToStruct(ByVal xString As String, ByVal type As Type) As Object
Dim structString() As String = xString.Split(Convert.ToChar(161))
Dim myType As Type = type.GetType()
Dim myField As System.Reflection.FieldInfo() = myType.GetFields()
For i As Integer = 0 To structString.Length - 1
myField(i).SetValue(type, structString(i)) ''here crashes
Next i
Return type
End Function
Deserialize xml string back to struct is easier :
Public Function xStringToStruct(ByVal xString As String, ByVal type As Type) As Object
Dim x As New Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer(type)
Dim sw As New IO.StringReader(xString)
Return x.Deserialize(sw)
End Function
You can use it like so :
Dim xObject As myList = xStringToStruct(xString, GetType(myList))

How can iterate in Dictionary in vb.net?

I create a dictionary
Dim ImageCollection As New Dictionary(Of ConvensionImages, Integer)
and I fill that
For Each dr As DataRow In dt.Rows
Dim obj As New ConvensionImages
obj.ImageID = dr("ID")
obj.Name = dr("Name")
obj.Description = dr("Description")
obj.CategoryID = dr("CategoryID")
obj.CategoryName = dr("CategoryName")
obj.CategoryDescription = dr("CatDescription")
obj.EventID = dr("EventID")
obj.Image = dr("img")
obj.DownloadImage = dr("DownLoadImg")
ImageCollection.Add(obj, key)
key = key + 1
now I want to search ImageID and key how can I do this
Make Integer as key for your Dictionary:
Dim ImageCollection As New Dictionary(Of Integer, ConvensionImages)
Change ImageCollection.Add(obj, key) to ImageCollection.Add(key, obj)
And use this loop:
For Each kvp As KeyValuePair(Of Integer, ConvensionImages) In ImageCollection
Dim v1 As Integer = kvp.Key
Dim v2 As ConvensionImages = kvp.Value
'Do whatever you want with v2:
'If v2.ImageID = .... Then
Next
You can loop this way, too:
For Each iKey As Integer In ImageCollection.Keys
Dim value As ConvensionImages = ImageCollection(iKey)
'...
Next
It is very fast and simple way to it.
