Someone asked me today if it was possible to port a visual basic application to Linux or similar platform, I assumed it was .NET so I suggested to use Mono, but noticed that on their vb support page they only talk about vb 8 (.NET) Does mono support non-.NET vb? In fact I'm not sure what he is using, I think vb6, I'm not sure of the versioning at all though.
View 2 RepliesI've downloaded latest source from mono project, compiled it and everything works (c# projects, mod_mono, xsp) except vb.net. Vbnc, mono's vb.net compiler does not exist after compiling mono from source.This is on CentOS 5, on Ubuntu 10.04 I installed mono packages via apt-get and vb.net just works.

View 3 RepliesI'm working on an application which has a common window hierarchy with menus and worked ok on vs2003, but now I'm on VS2008 sp1 trying to generate the same hirarchy and I'm amazed that visual support for differents controls like the menustrip are not working. I've been investigating, and so far it seems that the answer to my question is "it's not supported".

I am using Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition. Visual Studio crashed yesterday and now I'm getting this error when I try to edit any code-behind in any project.I have tried resetting all environment settings and that didn't work.I have tried repairing my installation via add/remove programs and that didn't work.
I have tried reinstalling SP1 and that didn't work.I tried creating a new VB Windows project and received the following error: Project "TestVB" could not be opened because the Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 compiler could not be created. Please re-install Visual Studio. However, I already tried the repair/reinstall.
I'm not sure what else to try beyond a full uninstall/reinstall, and I'm hoping somebody has encountered and fixed this problem without having to do that.UPDATE: I have tried uninstalling Visual Studio, rebooting and then installing again and that didn't work. I am now out of options and really need my VB environment restored.

View 9 RepliesDoes anybody know which version of Visual Studio 2010 contains the full set of Visual Basic SharePoint Templates? I am about to embark on a project to create Visual Web Parts to be used in a SharePoint report.
At the moment I am using Visual Studio 2008 and even though the WSPBuilder is installed none of the relevant SharePoint templates are present.Having searched SO and the web, most advise to install the templates via the Visual Studio command prompt: devenv /installvstemplates
Alas the Visual Studio command prompt is also missing from my VS2008 installation.So, the question remains: which version of VS2010 contains what I need for pain-free SharePoint development? There is a rather large price different between VS2010 Professional and VS2010 Premium, so can anyone tell me if the cheaper version (VS2010 Professional) contains all the Sharepoint templates?
How do I disable the background compiler for Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2008?

I am just wondering how I can add Direct X references to Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2. I cant find them in the .NET reference list, or the reference list, or anywhere. I downloaded the Direct X SDK for August 2009, but I can not add the .dll files to the reference list. Is there anything I can do to add them? I need the references for programming reasons.

I'm trying to just get a VB.net app to be able to execute a lua script in a external file, and be able to add some functions to lua too, To do this I have this code:
Imports LuaInterface
Public Class Form1
Public luascripting As New Lua()
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
luascripting.RegisterFunction("DisplayText", Me, Me.GetType().GetMethod("DisplayText"))
luascripting.DoFile("script.lua")
End Sub
End Class
But it errors on the register function, saying "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." Do you know of a example VB.net project that uses lua? Or know how to fix this?
