While your post is technically correct, using reflection just to inline a function is never a good idea.


Ya, but he did answer the question, that is a way to do it with just oneline of code in vb.net...

My quesiton was is there an equivalent to:

New Application().run(f)

I realize I could declare a var and use it.

Herbie



Can this even be done in VB.NET?

I'm trying to convert some sample code from c# that says:

New Application().run(f)

But that doesnt' work in VB.NET.  Is there an equivalant?

Well went to the bathroom for a while but got distracted because there was a sign inside the stall that said not to flush paper towels. So I was then thinking of a scenario of why you would carry paper towels from the sinks over to the stalls to the flush. Then I begin wondering why some people have issues making it in to the toilet so to speak. I then wondered what some peoples home bathrooms must be like or maybe they just don’t have enough respect to take a little more caution.

So then I took out the majority of code I was having problems with and thought I was close but then was defeated miserably. 

So now I will search for a beach ball to kick around the office walking to starbucks around the block.....actually Im just going to go home.

Vista seems to create some type of system link files for backwards compatibility.  For example there is a file called "Documents and Settings" that looks like a shortcut file (icon wise), but if you click on it you get an access denied error.

The problem I have is that when I run software that synchs my user folder to another drive when it hits one of those special link files which it can't copy it blows up.

How can I get around this?

Thanks.

So sell the one you already own rather than the not for resale.

Also didn't PowerTogether allow you to choose what you got in order to keep under the taxable benefit scale?


The one I already own is from MSDN - I'd have to sell the entire MSDN license which I'm sure you guys are going to tell me I can't do that either (not that I want too).

And it's interesting that want to tax you on somehting you can't even resell.  If you can't resell it - it has no value.

It's like the dump trucks that go down the road with signs that say "Not Responsible For Items Thrown From Truck"  - that doesn't really mean that are not responsible just because they have a sign.  If that was the case insurance companies would have all of us put signs on our cars that just read "Not Responsible" then when I run into you and you call up the insurance company they would say - ya sorry did you read the sign.
