.net - String Value Type Or Reference Type?
Aug 11, 2010Is string a reference type or a value type?
View 3 RepliesIs string a reference type or a value type?
View 3 RepliesI am little bit confused in value type and ref. type memory allocation.
Consider following case:
public struct Employee
{
public int Emp_no;
public string Emp_name;
};
//Createing object of struct
Employee objEmp = new Employee;
objEmp.Emp_no = 1012;
objEmp.Emp_name = "emp name";
So I have query regarding :
Q1. 'struct' is a value type and 'string' is reference type of data type. Then if I use 'objEmp.Emp_name' is stored where? The location is in heap or in stack memory? What type of this 'Emp_name' variable?
Q2. If I run garbage collection explicitly then what will happen with 'objEmp' object?
Im trying to bind a list with datetime objects to my repeater.
if (e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.AlternatingItem || e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Item)
{
DateTime actualDate = e.Item.DataItem as DateTime;
}
When I want access the itemdatabound event on the repeater Then I get an errormessage which says that DateTime is a valuetype and not a reference type.My solution is that a wrap the datetime in a custom object (reference type) and pass that to the repeater datasource instead of the datetime. But Im wondering if there are other solutions where the repeater takes valuetypes (DateTime objects).
I have a FormView that allows a user to register for a company event. I want to do a couple of things with this form.
1. I need to write this data to a MS SQL database
2. I need to send an email confirmation of their registration to their email.
I know how to do both of these things, but i am having trouble doing both at the same time.
It would be nice if I could do it in one click, but I coded it into two pages to try to help simplify it.
The first page allows the user to input their information into a formview and when they click the submit button, it places those answers into session variables:
[Code]....
[Code]....
The Second page confirms the users information by taking those session variables and placing them into labels:
[Code]....
[Code]....
However, after I place information into the formview on the first page, it throws up this error:
"Conversion from type 'TextBox' to type 'String' is not valid".
I have this error "The given value of type String from the data source cannot be converted to type datetime of the specified target column." when I used sqlbulkcopy to do the transaction

The objects are generated by ADO.NET Entity Framework. Organizations is its own object, but also a property of Profile (each user belongs to one organization). Now I understand what the error message is saying, just not sure how else I'm supposed to do this.

Above is my code. The error I'm get is, Unable to cast object of type 'System.DateTime' to type 'System.String'.
The column "To" and column "Subject" are strings and column "Receive" is DateTime. I can't made any changes in the database, so I need to write some code to handle casting a string to datetime or if statement as a work around.
