Hi all,

I have an interesting situation. I have a compiled Jscript.net dll. I am
referencing this in a Vb.net project. Now the jscript dll has a property
that is of decimal type. In the VB project I am assigning this property a
value. Something like:-

processor.Value1 = request.Value1

Where processor is the Jscript object and request is a VB object. When I
debug the VB project, request.Value1 shows a value of 398D, but
processor.Value1 shows a value of 0D after that line is run. Any ideas?

TIA!

Post the JScript implementation of 'processor.Value1'.
 
It was a mistake in the implementation. Apparently there was a typo on the
Set method for the property. Sorry.

Another question, if i had a property in JScript defined as an Object. Now I
try to set its value to a Decimal.

e.g. processor.MyObj = SomeOtherVbObj.ValueDecimal

Will that not work?
 
Yes, it will work. We can set a System.Decimal value to a System.Object
object.

Sincerely,

Luke Zhang

.... which should read that you can assign an instance of 'System.Decimal' to
a variable of type 'System.Object' and not the other way around.
