[RESOLVED] Run Exe As Embedded Resources?
Nov 19, 2011
I am wanting to use a vnc installer as an embedded resource, and if the computer running the program does not have vnc installed then typing in a password will install vnc. I have tried everything I can think of and running the process from my computer works, however when ran on a different computer i get the error "File not Found". I am sure I am not calling the embedded resource correctly. I am using Process.Start(" ightvnc.exe /S")

i have added 3 .png files [done.png, failed.png, busy.png] to my project & changed them to "embedded resource" [from this wht i understand is that they will be integrated within the exe hence eliminating the dependency on the actual location it is stored]
i have 1 picturebox on my form whose image i have to change as per the output of something else
this is wht my code looks like :
If text1.text = "Done" then
picturebox1.image = my.resources.done.png
end if
[Code].....
but it gives me error during run time.. am i using the right code ? or is there an alternate method for this ?

I'm having some trouble trying to inherit a control that uses an embedded resource. The trouble is - this control uses me.GetType() instead of GetType(ControlName). Now when I try to use the derived control, it looks for the resources in the derived control's assembly, instead of the base control assembly, and obviously - doesn't find them.

I'm writing a console application in Visual Basic 2008 Express. I added several text files to my project as resources. Specifically... I went to my project's "Properties" page and selected the "Resources" tab. I clicked the "Add Resource" dropdown and chose "Add New Text File". I entered some simple text and saved the file as "Welcome.txt". I built the entire solution.n my code, I use console.writeline(My.Resources.Welcome) to display the text

I've copied the files albanyc.ttf and MTCORSVA.TTF into 'Resources' and set the 'Build Action' for both to 'Resource'. A label is set to one or other of these fonts dependent upon what is being displayed. This works fine on this PC but when I copy the program to my laptop it seems to me that neither font is used and the same 'other font' is used in stead of either of the ones I want to use. I tried setting the build action to 'Embedded Resource' but that made no difference and I got an error message when I tried 'Compile' (I kinda expected that, but thought it worth a try). Both CP and laptop have the same OS, Win.7 64bit, the only difference is that the PC has Pro. and the laptop Home P.

I'm having trouble with reading a file from embedded resources.
I'm starting to learn about developing applications for eBay. You can pass queries to eBay in XML format, and receive replies back in the same format.
I have some examples of code to do this. Here's how the sample code loads an xml file, containing the query.
'Get XML Document from Embedded Resources
Dim xmlDoc As New XmlDocument()
Dim current_assembly As Assembly
[Code]....
I can't see any difference between the sample and my attempt.
The Assembly Name and Root Namespace in my project are both set to "Sample," just as in the original.
I've tried things like changing the filename and the namespace, but I still can't get it to work.

This showed up this morning in my error list.
Quote:Error1The item "objDebugArtScheduler_2.ImagePreview.resources" was specified more than once in the "Resources" parameter. Duplicate items are not supported by the "Resources" parameter.ArtScheduler_2 What I did this morning was add a filter line to my openfiledialog in the ImagePreview form and deleted the settings in the designer Looked in project properties under debug and resources and don't find anything.Looked in the objDebug folder on drive and it listed two of the same files, same size and timestamp. Deleted one. Still get same error.Program runs (F5) after clicking yes, accepting that there is an error and to still run.Have not tried to publish. Don't know if this would corrupt the working version already published or not.

If I took a COM object (specifically Excel 2003 workbook) and made it an embedded resource of my executable, would that improve the notoriously slow .NET-COM interop at all?

I wrote a small application for a friend that opens a Excel sheet, get's some data from it and stores that data into a file. I compiled it for AnyCPU (I also did a compile just for his 64 bit machine, same result).Here is the problem:He is able to run the program on a 32 bit computer without any problem, it just won't work on his 64 bit computer.Here is the error he is getting App failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135)
Is this my problem or could this be his problem? As far as I can tell I'm all up to date with VS2008.Is there somewhere I can look specifically what the latest build is for VS2008? I am using VB2008.

I want to know how to make a keygen that will generate a letter/number randomly out some example letters which would need to be defined.E.G.Random number out of 0-9 (0,1,2,3 etc) Random letter from A-Z (A,B,C etc) And then obviously display generated key in TextBox.

I'm working through the Pro ASP.NET MVC Framework book by Apress (which is great, btw) and it's in C# although we mostly work in VB so I'm "translating" the examples along the way. So far so good but I ran into something that has thrown me.Long story short we need to validate that the string the user gave us as an email address. This returns true in C#:
Console.WriteLine(System.Text.RegularExpressions.R egex.IsMatch("Me@me.com", ".+\@.+\..+"));
But this returns false in VB:Console.WriteLine(System.Text.RegularExpressions.R egex.IsMatch("Me@me.com", ".+\@.+\..+"))

This one is causing me a lot of frustration, and as far as I can see, it should work. What I have is a form with 9 ListViews (ListView1 through 9), and I want to add items to them.The issue is, I have a routine that sets which ListView to use. Say I have set it for ListView4, it works initially on the first file, but after one line of code. it reverts back to ListView1 for the remaining files. (itmModelItem = lvwModels.Items.Add(ModelName) in AddModel.

Yesterday s**ked, and today ain't (sic) looking better. I have an application I have been working on and it can be slow to start when my ISP is down because of DNS. My ISP was down for 3 hours yesterday, so I didn't think much about this piece of code I had added, until I found that it is always slow to start. This code is supposed to return your IP address and my reading of the link suggests that should be immediate, but it isn't, at least on my machine.Oh, and yesterday before the internet went down, I upgraded (oymoron) to XP SP3, and have had other problems.So my questions / request:
1. Am I doing this right?
2. If you run this on your machine does it take 39 seconds to return your IP address? [code]

GUI: textbox1.Text, button, textbox2.Text What i want to do is when the user inputs an 8 bit binary number The program finds the places of ones and outputs them For example: user inputs 00010011, the program outputs a 4,1,0 because the 7th place is the one closest to the left and the 0th place is the farthest, e.g. 76543210 is and in the 8bit string the 4th 1st and 0th are ones I was thinking of something like this:

I'm just having some difficulty with nitpicky details. To give you a gauge of the level of programming I'm at I'll just tell you about some of the work I've done. Of course, you can skip down to the last paragraph if you don't have the time.I've created an emulator for a programming language I call "Blue Code". It's kinda a spoof on Redcode, which you may have read about before. You load programs which use simple commands like add, divide, copy, jump, split (like making a new thread), etc. You can load multiple programs in and each instruction sits on a line of a circular memory. Then each program takes turns trying to get the other to run an illegal function, at which time it looses. I think it's quite a bit better than Redcode actually.I also wrote a program a couple years back (when I was 13?) that draws fractal trees, it's quite fun.
So, I have a pretty good grasp on VB, but recently I got into 3D graphics using the Direct3D library. Unfortunately, the function I'm using to save meshes is not working. I know the rest of my program works just dandy because I've loaded quite a few sample meshes. Now, I've come to the conclusion that my saving code is irreparably broken, so I won't even show it to you. What I need is somebody to write an outline of what I need in a saving function, or, better yet, actually write a saving function which I can customize to my purposes. The parameters are, a somewhat unconventional List(of List(of CustomVertex.PositionNormalTextured)), List(of Material), and List(of String). List of lists includes a bunch of lists of vertices I wish to use, where each list represents a subroutine. The list of strings and list of materials represent texture file names and surface materials respectively.

My issue is to combine two paths which one or both of them may contain double dots. I used Path.Combine(string, string) and the returned string is still a long path as a result of concatenating these two paths. Single or double dots are not eliminated.
So, I tried to use Path.GetFullPath(string) method with the concatenated path as the argument.PathTooLongException is thrown because this path has more than 260 characters. However, if this path is normalized, it won't exceed the maximum characters for a file path.
