View 3 RepliesDefault Values Are Being Used For My.Settings Instead Of Those In The App.config
Nov 23, 2010A Windows service written in VB.NET is using the My.Settings namespace for simplicity. There are only three settings to read, and these are read within the constructor of the ServiceLauncher.
I am attempting to install the service as such:
installutil GID.ServiceLauncher.exe
And this is successful, however the config settings it is using are not the ones within the GID.ServiceLauncher.exe.config file, instead it is using the ones baked into the app as Default Settings within Settings.Designer.vb (marked with DefaultSettingValueAttribute). [The questionable wisdom of Microsoft not allowing a developer to ignore default settings is another question entirely].
How can I further diagnose this issue, and maybe force a reload of settings? I tried calling My.Settings.Default.Reload, however this did nothing. All settings are application settings, and only differ by "value" from those in the auto generated file.
I have successfully attached the debugger using System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Launch() and true enough, the settings are still the default settings.
In anticipation of the question, the background: The reason for requiring configuration settings is because this is a very straightforward service that simply executes an exe; and this exe is in configurable location. There are other reasons also, such as I wish to have the service name configurable without recompiling.
Printing Default Page Settings?
Jun 28, 2011I am practicing on how to print from vb.net (2008) i was able to print my text, however I am having hard time changing default page settings.When the script loads up it thinks my default printer is my 8x11 printer and adjusts the label for that. however I am using a small label printer and labels are very small like 1x2inch. After I hit print button I can get the printer dialog box up change the prinet however because margins are wrong, my print out is unaligned. I like to change my default printer at form load step.

C# - User Settings Keep Resetting To Default After Each Deployment?
Aug 18, 2009My deployment of upgrades to an application written in C# (.NET 3.0) consist of simply replacing an older .exe with the new one. Because that older version can currently be used by some customers, I simply rename the old version to blahblah.exe.old and copy the new one to the same folder. When the user opens up the application again, the new one loads up.
The problem is, every time I deploy a new version, the user scope settings are always reverted back to the default values.
Setting Printer Driver Default Settings?
Apr 24, 2012I have a label printer with the driver loaded with the settings in the driver set I can print the exact label that I want, I have the problem that I need to set the default settings in the driver when the software starts. there are 6 of these printers and the only problem we have found is that different operators like to change the settings.
What I need to do is to set the following commands in the driver so each time the system is started (daily) it loads the settings and works properly.
I need to set
Custom Commands Text, Start, Parsed Text
In the Advanced Setup, turn on use printer settings
Other settings would be usfull but as I cannot set these I do not think I will be able to set others.
I can currently set some of the commands eg,
DefaultPageSettings.PrinterSettings.Copies=2

View 4 RepliesWhere Do ASP.NET "website Prejects" Store Default Reference/assembly Settings For VB/C#
Jul 22, 2010MY understanding is like this, for the "website type" of projects:for VB, the default setting for the namespaces and the default setting for references are both stored in C:WindowsMicrosoft.NetFrameworkV4.0.30319ConfigWeb.config.
but C# does not seem to use this global web.config file to store its default namespaces and references settings. One evidence is that you see a lot of "using ..." statements at the top of all C# files whereas you don't see many "imports ..." statements at the top of all VB files. So C# stores the namespace settings in individual .cs files, but where does C# store the reference settings then? Or the C# compiler knows all the reference without having to store it somewhere?

View 5 RepliesDefault Instance Of Form In .Net But Not In C#?
Jan 15, 2011there is The (Name) property, which represents the name of the Form class.This property is used within the namespace to uniquely identify the class that the Form is an instance of and, in the case of Visual Basic, is used to access the default instance of the form.
Now where this Default Instance come from, why can't C# have a equivalent method to this.Also for example to show a form in C# we do something like this:
//Only method
Form1 frm = new Form1();
frm.Show();
But in VB.Net we have both ways to do it:
//'First common method (used slash because editor wouldn't format it properly)
Form1.Show();
//'Second method
Dim frm as New Form1();
frm.Show();
1) My question comes from this first method. What is this Form1, is it an instance of Form1 or the Form1 class itself. Now as i mentioned above the Form name is the Default instance in VB.Net. But we also know that Form1 is a class defined in Designer so how can the names be same for both the Instance and class name. If Form1 is Class then there is no (StaticShared) method named Show().So where does this method come from.
2) What difference they have in the generated IL
3) And finally why C# can't have an equivalent of this.

View 2 RepliesSet Default Button On A Form?
Sep 12, 2011I have created a form to similate the use of a messagebox. The main reason for creating it is so I can specify an "action"button on it. I.e., instead of just offering Yes or No to the question "Are you sure you want to remove the record?", I can have an "action" button which says "Remove Record" and a No button.
The problem I am having is that I cannot get the No button to be the default button when I do form.showdialog. Instead the action button is the default button. At design time I set the No button as the AcceptButton. I also set it in the code, which I realize I should not have to do. Then I set Focus on the No button. I do the doevents just to be sure the code has finished manipulating the buttons.
