Question

I have defined a class like

Public Class MyClass
 Public Type1 As Integer
 Public Type2 As float
End Class

How can I convert a ListItemCollection to a list(of MyClass) ?

Answer 1

The MyClass is keyword and float type in VB.NET is expressed via Single alias (System.Single)

Public Class Item
   Public Type1 As Integer
   Public Type2 As Single
End Class

I’ve construct the collection with sample data.

Dim cl As New ListItemCollection
cl.Add(New ListItem("1", "1.2"))
cl.Add(New ListItem("2", "2.3"))
cl.Add(New ListItem("3", "3.4"))

Dim lst = From ele In cl Select New  _
                    Item With
                     {
                         .Type1 = Integer.Parse(ele.Text),
                         .Type2 = Single.Parse(ele.Value)
                     }

For Each ele As Item In lst
    Response.Write("<br/>  " & ele.Type1 & " " & ele.Type2)
