Call Event When Program Closes?

Jul 2, 2011

I'm looking for a more elegant way to work around a problem I have

Code:
Private Sub MnuCheckForUpdates_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MnuCheckForUpdates.Click
Dim startInfo As New ProcessStartInfo(mStartUpPath & "" & "Updater.exe")
Process.Start(startInfo)
End Sub

As you can see I�m calling my updater program, but I want some code to run only after the Updater has closed.My work around was to:

A - Initially load the updater.
B � Start a time
C � Check if the updater is still running.
D � If its not call the routine in the timer event.

But this is not elegant is there another way around this, I can call events in the updater but I don�t think I can join them in someway to ProcessStartInfo Class .

Suppress The Validating Event When The Form Closes?

Jul 1, 2009

We have a window that has a text box on it that the user must enter in valid data before going on. So we have put in a message box letting the user know that they have to enter in the correct data before going on in the Leave event. That works just fine, but when the user press ALT+F4, or presses the X in the upper right corner of the window it still goes through the event. We would not like for that to happen. When we were using VB6 the same code was in the lost focus, and when the user pressed ALT+F4, and the X the LostFocus event did not fire, or acted like it did not fire. We have also tried moving the code to the Validating event, but it behaives similar to the Leave event? how to close a window, and either have the Leave, LostFocus, and Validating events not fire when the user Presses ALT+F4, or the X

Program Closes But Still Runs In Processes?

Apr 8, 2011

I have made a program that has an intro screen, moving onto an activity select screen which acts as the main interface to get around the program. After creating the program and installing it on my computer, when I close the program from the activity select screen, using the "X" at the top right corner, the program continues to run under "processes" in the task manager.If I close the program from the intro screen though, it will close everything, including the processes. Is there anyway I can get the same to happen with the game select screen? I can make it work by putting my own "End" button on the form, but id prefer to be able to do it with forms own close button.

This works.Now, when I close the FrmHistory form and then open it again, I have it so those combo boxes (Settings) are how I left them. This works. I do so via this.

VS 2008 Call KeyUp Event From MouseUp Event For A Textbox?

Aug 16, 2010

In VB6 we had a code inside textBox_MouseUp to call textBox_KeyUp(-1, 0) and the signature of KeyUp was
Private Sub textBox_KeyUp(ByRef KeyCode As Short, ByRef Shift As Short) Handles textBox.KeyUp

Now when I migrate to .NET I changed the KeyUp event to Private Sub textBox_KeyUp(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles textBox.KeyUp

How can I do this call textBox_KeyUp(-1,0) now from textBox_MouseUp event?

Exe Closes System.IO.StreamReader Kills Program?

Apr 24, 2011

Ok, So I am making a front-end for a program, and it runs the exe with command line arguments. One of those arguments is creating a log file that tells me who the winner is. Currently I have code that runs the app, tell VB when it exits and then does another event. When testing with message box as the other event, works fine.

When running the System.IO.Streamreader the app just closes down on its own and there are no errors shown.

Possible To Make Program 'self-destruct' (delete Itself) When It Closes?

Sep 30, 2010

Does anybody know if it's possible to make your program 'self-destruct' (delete itself) when it closes? I know this sounds like malware, but it's not. What happens is the user clicks 'install', the application copies itself to another directory, then the application starts the new copied file, with an argument that begins the installation, kills itself, and then the copied application restarts and then it's done. But I can't get rid of the original executable.

VS 2008 Closing All Forms When Program Closes Vs. Closing All But Main Form

Jun 4, 2010

Dim frm As Form
For Each frm In Forms
Set frm = Nothing
Next frm

The above code is what I used in VB6 to close all forms associated with my programs before my program closed. I have been searching for information on how to make sure all forms are closed when closing a VB2008 program.

I have seen info on using the Project Property Shutdown mode When startup form closes and I currently have this set.

Is this all that is really necessary? Will the garbage disposal close everything else to free up RAM?

Also, if I have several forms open and want to close all from the main form without closing each one individually, what is the best approach? Is there a collection like in VB6, go through the collection, compare it to the name of the main form and close it if it is not the main form?

Call An Event And/or Sub?

Sep 18, 2010

I'm making a button via images, which changes appearance as the user uses the mouse. For example, when the user clicks on the button, the image changes into the button being "pushed in." My problem is that when the user presses the button and releases the mouse I want it to go back to the image when the user is just hovering over the button. This only happens if the cursor is move off the button and then moved back onto it. I'm trying to call the event/sub where the mousehover event is used in order to get it to change back to the desired image. How do I call this event and/or sub in order for it to work?
