VBCorLib for VB6

To GitHub with VBCorLib and SimplyVBUnit!

Well, I've finally joined the masses and moved VBCorLib and SimplyVBUnit to GitHub👍

I had thought about it in the past, but didn't want to deal with whatever hurdles might exist when migrating from my Source Forge SVN repository to GitHub. Well, then I found the GitHub Importer and had no excuses. So with a click of a couple buttons I watched magic happen 😁

After importing the projects I then created a release for each to provide the same latest downloads as is available at Source Forge. Hopefully it won't be terribly confusing.

Well, now it's time to get my Git on, since I'm a complete novice.

  • Kelly, fantastic library. I'm thinking about mimicking this process with some additional portions of the .net framework - particularly LINQ. Have you done any work on mimicking linq functionality in this way that i can build off? or should i just start from scratch? If i actually manage to do it I can certainly link you to the repo/donate the code to your project.

  • That would be an interesting project. Since there are no extension method capabilities, my first thought would be the need for a LINQ expression builder type syntax and have to pass in the enumerable collection along with whatever other parameters needed for each method.

    Something like this comes to mind (air code):

    Dim Items As New Collection
    Dim Result As Variant
    Result = All(Items).Where("PropertyName", Iz.EqualTo("Value")).Select("OtherProperty").ToArray


    Of course you'd have to deal with keyword conflicts.

    But it's an interesting idea.
