Recently there was a discussion about adding Extension Property to Nemerle language.
But the syntax is unclear.
Updated proposed syntax:
module MExtension
{
[ExtensionProperty(string)] public StringProp : int { get; set; }
[ExtensionProperty(int)] public IntProp : string { get { "abc" } }
}
module MTest
{
F() : void
{
def x : int = "ab".StringProp;
"abc".StringProp = 100;
def y : string = 10.IntProp;
}
}
Note: module == static class
What do you think ?
I don't like it because of duplication:
you should specify Type2 in two points,
you should specify PropName in two points.
So the refactoring can be slightly complicated. How about the following approach?
module MExtension
{
property PropName(this arg : Type1) : Type2
{
get
{
...
}
set
{
... = value
}
}
}
or even autoproperty:
module MExtension
{
property PropName(this arg : Type1) : Type2 { get; set; }
}

It seems to be Type Cast Error. i would suggest declare variable of type 'var' instead of Emp in below statement
Emp emp = db.SPGetEmpDetailsByEmpIdJoin(id).SingleOrDefault();
to something like this
var emp = db.SPGetEmpDetailsByEmpIdJoin(id).SingleOrDefault();
second approach
Define extension method to cast SPGetEmpDetailsByEmpIdJoinResult to Emp some thing like below
sample Emp class
public class Emp
{
public int DeptId { get; set; }
public int EmpId { get; set; }
/*
* define other properties
*/
}
public static Emp ToEmp(this SPGetEmpDetailsByEmpIdJoinResult empResult)
{
return new Emp() {EmpId = empResult.EmpId, DeptId = empResult.DeptId};
}
and call the extension method
Emp emp = db.SPGetEmpDetailsByEmpIdJoin(id).SingleOrDefault().ToEmp();
that would fix your issue. hope this helps :)
I have the following Enum:
namespace Storage.Constants.References {
public enum RoleType {
Guest = 1,
User = 2,
Admin = 3,
Super = 4
}
}
The following viewmodel:
public class BaseViewModel
{
public int Role { get; set; }
}
In my code I have the following. Note that the Enum is recognized by the code.
#if (Model.Role >= RoleType.Admin) {
xx
}
My code fails at runtime with the following message:
error CS0019: Operator '>=' cannot be applied to operands of type 'int' and 'Storage.Constants.References.RoleType'
Two options. cast RoleType.Admin to an int as RoleType.Admin is an Enum type.
#if (Model.Role >= (int)RoleType.Admin) {
xx
}
Or make the property in BaseViewModel an enum, so no need for conversion:
public class BaseViewModel
{
public RoleType Role { get; set; }
}
#if (Model.Role >= RoleType.Admin) {
xx
}
Try this:
#if (Model.Role >= (int)RoleType.Admin) {
xx
}
If you want to do it that way, you need to convert RoleType.Admin to an int when comparing.
I got the following model piece of code:
public enum EnumTest
{
[Description ("Enum Text 1")]
Value_1 = 1,
[Description ("Enum Text 2")]
Value_2 = 2,
}
public List<Fields> listFields = new List<Fields>();
public class Fields
{
public int Code { get; set;}
public string Description { get; set;}
}
I got an Enum and I would like to fill my variable CODE with enum value and the variable Description with the same enum description. I looked up a long time and failed to initialize my "ListFields" into its constructor with the enum VALUE/DESCRIPTION.
I already got the enum and the method to get its description.. I found it usefull, so I'll leave it here, maybe it can be useful for someone..
public static string GetDescription(this Enum value)
{
return (from m in value.GetType().GetMember(value.ToString())
let attr =(DescriptionAttribute)m.GetCustomAttributes(typeof(DescriptionAttribute), false).FirstOrDefault()
select attr == null ? value.ToString() : attr.Description).FirstOrDefault();
}
To use this you just need to do something like this:
String xx = Enum.EnumName.GetDescription();
You have to use reflection.
public static Fields[] GetEnumFields(Type enumType)
{
if (enumType == null)
throw new ArgumentNullException("enumType");
if (!enumType.IsEnum)
throw new ArgumentException("Not an enum");
FieldInfo[] fieldInfos = enumType.GetFields(BindingFlags.Static | BindingFlags.Public);
Fields[] result = new Fields[fieldInfos.Length];
for (int i = 0; i < fieldInfos.Length; ++i)
{
FieldInfo field = fieldInfos[i];
int value = (int)field.GetValue(null);
DescriptionAttribute attrib = Attribute.GetCustomAttribute(field, typeof(DescriptionAttribute)) as DescriptionAttribute;
string desc = attrib != null ? attrib.Description : field.Name;
result[i] = new Fields(value, desc);
}
return result;
}
public class Fields
{
private int value;
private string description;
public int Value
{
get { return this.value; }
}
public string Description
{
get { return this.description; }
}
public Fields(int value, string description)
{
this.value = value;
this.description = description;
}
}
To use it is quite simple:
enum test
{
[Description("hello!")]
ciao,
www
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
foreach (Fields f in GetEnumFields(typeof(test)))
{
Console.WriteLine(f.Description);
}
}
In my implementation when a descriptionattribute is not found, field name is used.
We must also say that reflection can be slow and rebuilding the entire array when you need it is a waste of time, if you need it often.
You can store the array somewhere so you can compute it only once and keep it cached.
This of course and as I said, makes sense only if you need this readonly list very often.
The following example, how do I refer base class instance?
public class A
{
public string test;
public A()
{
B b = new B();
test = "I am A class of test.";
}
public void hello()
{
MessageBox.Show("I am A class of hello.");
}
class B
{
public B()
{
//Here...
//How can I get A class of test and call A class of hello method
//base.test or base.hello() are not working.
}
}
}
You'd have to pass a reference of A to B.
One way you can do this is as follows:
public class A
{
string name = "Class A";
public A()
{
var b = new B(this);
}
class B
{
public B(A a)
{
a.name.Dump(); // Write out the property of a.name to some stream.
}
}
}
To clearly distinguish between base class and nested class, please refer the example below.
namespace Example
{
class A
{
string Name = "test"; // access restricted only to this class
public string Type; // global access
internal string Access; // within defining namespace
protected string Code; // this class and subclass
// When you create a nested class like C, you can create instances of C within this class(A).
C c = new C();
class C
{
string name;
public C()
{
//this is a nested class and you cannot call A as its base
name = "test success";
}
}
}
class B : A
{
public string Type { get { return base.Type; } set { base.Type = value; } } // You can use base when you hide a base class member
public B()
{
Type = "test";
Code = "nothing";
Access = "success";
//Cannot Access 'Name' Here as it is private
}
}
}
I have been given the painful task of writing a C# application to sync up employee time entries in a separate database with Quickbooks. Since I'm brand new to QB programming, I'm trying to peform basic tasks, such as getting a list of customers, then jobs for each customer, then employees. I've been reading the SDK documentation, but I'm still a little fuzzy on the details because the examples I'm finding are a little too advanced for me at the moment :-P
To keep things simple, I would like to ask for a code snippet that gives me the list of customers for starters. Here's the code I've got:
QBSessionManager SessionManager = new QBSessionManager();
IMsgSetRequest customerSet = SessionManager.CreateMsgSetRequest("US", 8, 0);
//
// Code to get list of customers here.
//
SessionManager.OpenConnection2("", "New App", ENConnectionType.ctLocalQBD);
SessionManager.BeginSession(string.Empty, ENOpenMode.omDontCare);
IMsgSetResponse Resp = SessionManager.DoRequests(customerSet);
MessageBox.Show(Resp.ToXMLString());
SessionManager.EndSession();
SessionManager.CloseConnection();
Can anyone fill in the "code to get list of customers here" for me? Thank you very much in advance!
Victor
customers.IncludeRetElementList.Add("IsActive");
customers.IncludeRetElementList.Add("ListID");
customers.IncludeRetElementList.Add("EditSequence");
customers.IncludeRetElementList.Add("Name");
customers.IncludeRetElementList.Add("ParentRef");
Only the fields specified in the above list will be returned from QuickBooks - it is very important to use the correct strings in the correct case - no error messages will result if something is wrong. You cannot specify sub-fields (eg, City within an Address block; you must get the entire Address block). For custom fields, you also must specify the OwnerID (use 0 for custom fields that are not private to an application)
customers.IncludeRetElementList.Add("DataExtRet"); //will return non-private and/or private data extension fields depending on the OwnerIDList, below
customers.OwnerIDList.Add("0"); // required for non-private data extn fields
customers.OwnerIDList.Add("Your Appln GUID"); // Use this to get private data extns for the Appln identified by the GUID
Ok, seems like I found the missing piece:
ICustomerQuery customers = customerSet.AppendCustomerQueryRq();
This produces all the data related to each customer, which is a step forward. Parsing the XML for customers should be pretty straightforward, but parsing the individual tasks/jobs for each customer will be laborious, because there are no subnodes for each task - basically you get repeating chunks of XML with all the basic customer info (address, billing address, shipping address, etc.), then this one property called "FullName" which appends a colon to the customer name, followed by the task title (which itself can be followed by another colon with a subtask title, etc.). I'm wondering if there's something clever I can do with the request query to get a better xml response (for instance, specify what properties I want returned, and maybe enforce the creation of subnodes for each task for a given customer)...comments are appreciated.
Adding to Victors, Chili and Hassan's answer. Glad to have stumbled on this question as I myself was struggling with the QBFC examples.
Here is a full set of code that might just help someone down the road. If in the meantime someone could just point me in the direction of some useful documentation...that would be great.
Getting the Employee data to an XML string
public static string EmployeeListXML()
{
QBSessionManager SessionManager = new QBSessionManager();
IMsgSetRequest msgSetReq = SessionManager.CreateMsgSetRequest("US", 8, 0);
IEmployeeQuery employee = msgSetReq.AppendEmployeeQueryRq();
employee.IncludeRetElementList.Add("IsActive");
employee.IncludeRetElementList.Add("ListID");
employee.IncludeRetElementList.Add("EditSequence");
employee.IncludeRetElementList.Add("FirstName");
employee.IncludeRetElementList.Add("LastName");
employee.IncludeRetElementList.Add("SSN");
//employee.IncludeRetElementList.Add("ParentRef");
//employee.IncludeRetElementList.Add("DataExtRet"); //will return non-private and/or private data extension fields depending on the OwnerIDList, below
employee.OwnerIDList.Add("0"); // required for non-private data extn fields
//customers.OwnerIDList.Add("Your Appln GUID"); // Use this to get private data extns for the Appln identified by the GUID
SessionManager.OpenConnection2("", Application.ProductName, ENConnectionType.ctLocalQBD);
//SessionManager.BeginSession(string.Empty, ENOpenMode.omDontCare);
SessionManager.BeginSession(frmMain.QBFileName, ENOpenMode.omDontCare); // I have the filename on frmMain
IMsgSetResponse Resp = SessionManager.DoRequests(msgSetReq);
SessionManager.EndSession();
SessionManager.CloseConnection();
//MessageBox.Show(Resp.ToXMLString());
return Resp.ToXMLString();

oEmp.Active = childNode.SelectSingleNode("IsActive").InnerText;
oEmp.FirstName = childNode.SelectSingleNode("FirstName").InnerText;
oEmp.LastName = childNode.SelectSingleNode("LastName").InnerText;
oEmp.SSN = childNode.SelectSingleNode("SSN").InnerText;
lstEmp.Add(oEmp);
}
return lstEmp;
}
Function that return an Employee Object using Linq
public static Employee GetEmployeeObject(string sSSN)
{
Employee oReturn = null;
List<Employee> lstEmployee = EmployeeXMLtoList();

where oEmp.SSN == sSSN
select oEmp;
foreach (var oEmp in lstEmps)
{
oReturn = oEmp;
}
return oReturn;
