VB.Net List.Find. Pass values to predicate
- by Beta033
Having a bit of trouble using the List.Find with a custom predicate
i have a function that does this
private function test ()
Dim test As Integer = keys.Find(AddressOf FindByOldKeyAndName).NewKey
here's the function for the predicate
Private Shared Function FindByOldKeyAndName(ByVal k As KeyObj) As Boolean
If k.OldKey = currentKey.OldKey And k.KeyName = currentKey.KeyName Then
Return True
Else
Return False
End If
End Function
by doing it this way means i have to have a shared "currentKey" object in the class, and i know there has to be a way to pass in the values i'm interested in of CurrentKey (namely, keyname, and oldkey)
ideally i'd like to call it by something like
keys.Find(AddressOf FindByOldKeyAndName(Name,OldVal))
however when i do this i get compiler errors.
How do i call this method and pass in the values?
