Checking If A Port Is Open - If It Is Open Then Return True, If It's Closed, Return False?
Dec 28, 2010
I'm making a Visual Basic GUI application to display whether a number of my ports are open for people to know whether things like my website and my Minecraft server are open.My problem is I have absolutely no idea how to do this in Visual Basic.Basically, I'm asking for something which sends a signal to an IP with a specific port, if it is open then return true, if it's closed, return false. Similar to: http:[url]....
I want to open up an existing instance if my program is already running only if its running the same version.I noticed that this question was asked for only if the name exists, but what if the version is older, I just want to notify the user that an older version is still running, "please remove older version before starting this version."The other link is this one:Return to an already open application when a user tries to open a new instance but they don't talk about closing an instance if an older or newer version is detected.

In VB6 I had to always check if the port was open or not. But with VB.NET and the new Serial Port control I don't see any.If SerailPort1.Open then statements. In fact when I tried to use the code I got Expression does not produce a value.So does this mean that we no longer have to check to make sure the port closed?Is there a way to check if the port is open or not?
I have a bit of code that goes like this. [code] The problem is the MyInclusion = "Aspire Inclusions Pack" and the TblPackages. Rows(n). Item("fldPromotion1") also = "Aspire Inclusions Pack" BUT the CheckTrueOrFalse is FALSE. I need it to return a TRUE value for CheckTrueOrFalse.
I have a main page. How can I open a new web page (Url assigned in code) and get the return URL back in VB event when the page is closed.I have used a regular Button control to open the page with desired url: Button1.Attributes.Add "onclick", "window. showModal Dialog('" & url & "')")but I don't know how to get the REtURN URL from this page.
I have a refreshing process that updates a listview every ten seconds. If the context menu is open for a selected item it should return and not refresh?
Why can't I get error msg and return focus to btnOpenFile when no file has been selected. If file is selected all is good. I think I need some error cheching here..right?Class Open (open File dialog)

I'm trying to build a function where I can pass in a percentage and it would have that percentage to return a true value. However I'm completely drawing a blank on how to make on such function.
in an winForm app in VS2010 win 7 compiling to x86, I try to do what Alvas.Audio seems to work. See (c# ex: [URL] for reference.
Dim data() As Byte = wr.ReadData(second * i, second)
The result give me data.length()=0. I do not have any exception, I can read format from it and whatever reader I use I got this problem.EDIT : After some tests, it seems like the uncompressed file I create in the first step (in PCM format, with .wav extension) can not be recognized by the Alvas.audio library for the second step. I must miss something around Audio file markups or something alike.
Here is the code that might be the source (basically this is step 1):
Dim functOut As String = String.Empty Dim wr As Alvas.Audio.IAudioReader = Nothing Dim fs As IO.FileStream = Nothing

How can I write the resulted stream to be sure I can read it again later?
I have a Web Service with Just one Web Method that returns a boolean value and a function When a client application consumes this web Service, I first want to return a value true and then continue with the remaining process. I was googling and didn't find anything that I can understand. In one of the message posts I saw threading as one option. I tried that too.
I have a HTTP class that gets content from URL's, POST's content to URL's etc and then returns the raw HTML content.In the function inside of the class it detects if there is a HTTP error and if so I would like to return false but will this work if I have declared the function to return a String?
Code Sample of what I am trying to do (Note the Return Content & Return False if a HTTP error code is detected)Public Function Get_URL(ByVal URL As String) As String

What i get from minfo.invoke i am binding to the grid gv1 !!! But unfortunately its not working for all minfo !!!! Few errors are like : return type is not IListSource ,IEnumerable or IDataSource !!!!
returns IEnumerable or IData Source or IListSource !how to do that ?Also if return type is none of these i should display the result in a Textfield by Serializing the data and displaying it as an XML?How to do that too?
A long time ago, on a PC far, far away from Windows, one MS-DOS program (the father) could run / execute / spawn another MS-DOS program (the son). When the son terminated, it could set a return code which could certainly be interrogated by an MS-DOS batch program or, I think, by any father program that invoked it (depending on the language in which that program was written). I have a small utilility which I want to invoke from my application, and, since that utility sets a return code, I would like to interrogate it in my application when the utility terminates. I've looked through the MSDN Library but could not find anything that seemed to cover this situation. Is there a way to do this in Visual Basic 2008 Express
I am running a Windows Form application, in a button called subroutine is controlling a series of events in a with a timer with 500ms ticks. There is an IO port that will send information asynchronously about another set of events that need servicing from an external device. I want to deal with the event from the IO port and return to the original subroutine, but it appears the once I complete the delegate subroutine called by the IO event, the program does not return to the subroutine that was running. Do I need to resort to polling or is there another solution through threading?
Anyone else have an issue using read, It appears when I use read it gives me the correct buys but returns the wrong integer value So I use it and it fills the Array i make with &h10, &h6 but read reutnrs number of bytes returned to 1. if there a better way to go with Vb.net with RS232 I mean really my projet dosent have anything out of the Normal

I have textbox with vbscript, user could type integers, then hit return key, KeyUp event for return would trigge theWriteFile()being called for com port to write string to the device, if Ihit return key slow, I would get 0bytewritten for WriteFile(), timeout happening basically,if I hit return keyquick,
I'm working up a system where I plan on using RealProxy objects to enable intercepting method calls against a set of objects, handling the call, and then returning appropriate results. This works just find for simple return types like strings or ints, but I can't seem to return objects from the RealProxy.Invoke method. Everything works. I get no errors, but the returned value is always NOTHING, instead of an object.
I've worked up the smallest sample code I could, and have included it below. Essentially, just call RPtest and single step through. The code creates a simple object, RPTestA, with a string field and an object valued field It then retrieves the string
