I want to check at runtime if an assembly was probably written in VB. It doesn't have to be a bullet-proof method. Maybe call GetReferencedAssemblies() and check for an assembly that all VB projects reference?

Probably a dumb question, but can you write a unit test project in one language to test against another project in a different language?I'd like to translate one of our VB assemblies into C#, but want to build unit tests to verify the results. I've tried to set a unit test project up to do this, but I can't seem to access the VB code within a unit test... I can't figure out if I'm just missing/doing something stupid, or it really isn't allowed.
When ever I finish simple programs no matter what it is and i click to debug it it comes up"Error while trying to run project:could not load file or assembly"project name" or one of its dependencies.the module was expected to contain an assembly manifest"
I wrote some string extension methods in a VB assembly and am unit testing them from a C# project. However, C# acts like it cannot see the the extension methods, when other VB projects reference the VB assembly they have no problem. Both the VB assemebly and the C# test project are targeting .Net 3.5. Is there a way around this?
Error while trying to run project could not load file or assembly 'windowapplication1' or one of it's dependencies.the module was expected to contain an assembly manifest
Quote: Error while trying to run project: Could not load file or assembly WindowsApplication1' or one of its dependencies. The module was expected to contain an assembly manifest.
I don't know whats the cause of this.. Just asking if how can I load or find the missing Assembly or Dependencies? Because when I use this project w/ Setup & Deployment.. i encountering this error message:

Two of us at our company worked on a VB project. I developed the GUI interface. Another programmer developed some of the Classes that are also part of the project/Solution. Our manager wants to see as part of the 'Help/About' drop down, the version of the GUI application as well as the Class that the other programmer wrote. We are on the third modification of my GUI application, but the 8th version of the class that the other programmer wrote. Is there some way that the GUI application can get the 'Assembly Version' information for a class that may not necessarily exeuting at any given time?
I have written a small project that saves data in a data set, this part works fine, but I have some errors with the code I have written for importing excel data to the datagridview and exporting data from the data grid view.
This is a test project for me to learn how to do this stuff, so I will post the code for the entire project so you can see what I have done from start to finish.
I have Visual Studio 2010 and a VB Project that had a reference to Microsoft.Interop.Excel 12.0. Well recently I changed the reference version to 14.0. That was actually a mistake and now I need to bump it back down to version 12.0. However I get this error in my project now...
Project 'MyProject' requires a reference to version '14.0.0.0' of assembly 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel', but references version '12.0.0.0' of assembly 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel'.
I tried removing references and adding the com object to, but no avail.
We are trying to write an application that uses the NServiceBus library in a VB.NET environment. We've been stymied by errors similar to the following: Reference required to assembly 'NServiceBus,Version=2.0.0.1071, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=9fc386479f8a226c' containing the implemented interface 'NServiceBus.IMessageHandler`1'. Add one to your project.Our project already includes references to NServiceBus.dll and NServiceBus.Core.dll from the same NServiceBus 2.0 RC2 distribution.
[Code]...
Any ideas about how to solve this problem? (And, yes, my preferred solution is switching to C#, but no, that's not an acceptable one at the moment.)
I have just received an interesting feedback from a VB.NET customer using our product - for some reason intellisense hidden a certain enumeration value.After a small testing I have found that this is likely a bug in IntelliSense: [URL]..To be honest, I did not expect this problem with such a basic stuff like this. Have you seen this in the past? For me, it doesn't work in all VS versions...
Anyway, feel free to track this issue if you are coding in VB.NET.
When running setup to install published program, the following message occurs: System Update Required: Unable to install or run the applicaiton. The application requires that asssembly CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine Version 10.2.3600.0 be install in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) first. This version is listed in the references of the program and in my mind, be included in build. How do I get by this error?

I have recently upgraded an VB6 project to vs2008. I was almost finished when the following error occured. Unable to emit assembly: Referenced assembly AxInterop.MSFlexGridLib does not have a strong name Prior to this error appering, I tested my app several times and it was fine. Only after publishing it did the error appear. I have tried all solutions I could find, but nothing helps. I have read [URL]
sAssemblyName is the one I loaded using LoadFrom() actually. After it said it cannot find the assembly, I used AssemblyResolve event which solved my problem :Subscribing AssemblyResolve event :
Private Shared Function MyResolveEventHandler(ByVal sender As Object, _ ByVal args As ResolveEventArgs) As Assembly Return Assembly.LoadFrom("C:\PSIOBJ\" + args.Name + ".dll") End Function
And I thought maybe the error occurs because it cannot find a dependent assembly defined in assembly manifest file I loaded using LoadFrom() already but when I checked the args.Name, I saw it was trying to load same assembly and after that it worked without any problem. So basically a type in the loaded assembly cannot be found before the event adding change.
My old code was using AppDomain.CurrentDomain.Load() and Assembly.Load() methods and they were working fine without the AssemblyResolve event. I was able to reach types in dynamically loaded Assembly from every where within the same AppDomain.
LoadFrom() can find dependencies automatically within the same requested assembly path and that couldn't be problem as everything this dll needs was there. So at first it looked like a AppDomain problem to me as it looks like it seems it can reach assemblies from Load context instead of LoadFrom context and I am now using LoadFrom context.But now it seems I should pass oAssembly instance evertwhere to use any type from the loaded assembly?Doesn't it load the assembly where I can reach it everywhere (same AppDomain) using simple Type.GetType(...) method?
I'm wanting to include a system tray icon in my WPF project, and found this resource:[URL]..which looks like it will work beautifully, but it's written for C# and I'm using VB.net for this project. I downloaded his project and built the notifyicon as a DLL, then added as a reference to my project.
It throws up an error: Unable to emit assembly: Referenced assembly 'Hardcodet.Wpf.TaskbarNotification' does not have a strong name So I'm trying to figure out the best way to proceed. Do I need to strong name it, or is there a better way to do this?
I've got an exception when I deployed my application: "the located assembly's manifest does not match the assembly reference" What I remember is changing the project name from the previous source code, does it affect that much?
I have created several DLL (.NET) libraries that are used in several projects. In these DLL libraries I want to know/retrieve which assembly (EXE) calls/uses the library, so if possible I want to know info like assembly name (EXE), strong name, version number, etc.
NB: Examples may be in C# or VB. I use both languages.
I have written a .net assembly which plugs into to a third party COM application. The .net assembly is COM visible to the third party application. However this .net assembly references other regular assemblies. If I put these assemblies in the GAC the COM visibile assembly sees them without a problem. However for various reasons I do not want to put them into the GAC but I cannot get my COM visible assembly to see the other assemblies when they are in other locations. I have tried putting them in the same directory as the COM visible assembly. I have tried putting them in the same directory as the third party app's exe but neither of these work.
I'm basically trying to programmatically build each project in a list but only if they have changed. So does anyone know of a way (using EnvDTE maybe) to check if a project changed and therefore needs to compile?
I have a project solution which consists of few projects including a project which for window controls. In project A, I can import the project control but for another project B, I can't import the project control and cannot access the contains for the project control. May I know why and how to check whether the project control can be imported or not? If the project control is not importable to other project, then why my project A can import that and project B is not able to import that?
sorry for my English, I don't speek well... I need to compile assembly in memory, that can compile another one. There is a form with one button. Here is a code of the form
Imports System Imports System.Threading Imports System.CodeDom Imports System.CodeDom.Compiler Imports System.Collections
I am building a dll-Assemby A which references another Assembly B. Assembly B is strongly named and installed in the GAC of my development computer. An other computer will not have assembly B installed in the GAC.
Question: If i handle strongly named assembly B like a private assembly and copying it into the bin-directory by specifying local copy = true in the properties-window, will the programm run on the other computer?
i am trying to add a text file in Debug folder. But when i go to project tab to add a new item, there is no option to add a new item? What part of the setting needs to be changed? Using Visual basicExpress 2010.
