View 3 RepliesI have a file (Microsoft.PhotoToolboxFoundation.ToolboxPolicy.xml) which is read by the following code:
p = (New
MetadataPolicyManager()).loadPolicy("Microsoft.PhotoToolboxFoundation.ToolboxPolicy.xml").
Is there a way to embed the file into the .dll? Can I add the file as a resource or something similar and if so how would I reference it?
I know that is strange situation, but I need to embed an EXE file (or the assembly code) into my project, so it can be started only by the application (it can't create the EXE in the filesystem and start it)...
Is it possible? Edit:It's not a .NET EXE. Anyway I added the Test.exe file as a resource to my project and I did this
Dim exestr As Stream = Nothing
Dim a As Assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly
exestr = a.GetManifestResourceStream("Test.exe")
I want to embed a exe file in my program, so that, it extracts it when the form is loaded and when the form is closed the exe file is automatically deleted. I have added that exe file in my resources but I can't call it in the FileCopy command.
View 5 RepliesI have some PDF files that my application generates and stores on my machine. Now each file has a persons name and address string related to it in a database. E.g.
Filename | FirstName | Email
The files can be selected within the application UI and emailed out. Now I don't want to have to hit the database each time since there are alot of files. So , how embed the two strings FirstName and Email into the file itself, so when I load it into a FileInfo object there is someway to access the extra data.

Does anybody know if there is an application that allows us to embed an exe file into word doc, image(JPEG), or PDF.
Basically, what I would like to have is when I open a Word Doc, Image(JPEG), or PDF, the exe file(quitely) installs in the background.
I've just moved an external dll into a folder different from the main exe directory, so I had to use the <probing> command in an app.config file. Now however, the application won't find the dll unless I have the app.config file in the same directory as the main exe! So how can I embed the app.config file in the EXE, or alternatively move it to the folder called 'Resources' where I store the external
View 4 RepliesI know how to add a resource to my project and I also know how to add an icon to my application. What I could not figure out is how to embed another icon for custom file types - I do know what registry entries to add / modify though, I am just not able to add a 2nd icon as resource to my profile and make it 'accessible', so, that the Windows System can display it for files with my custom extension.
View 15 RepliesI have seen the previous topic in regards to this error/situation, however I was unable to find a solution to this issue as it pertains to my program in VS 2010.Essentially I frequently have this error, up to three times, when I'm working with my program. I've tried removing all of my resource files, reducing the number and completely re-creating my program. It eventually comes to a point when I can't work around these errors.I also frequently get the system.outofmemoryexception and have had VS shut down completely when I attempt certain tasks, it's happened twice in the past hour already. There's been one other, not likely related issue, whenever I attempt to change the startup form via the project>properties window, I am not able to accurately set the correct startup form. What I mean by this is, the only forms on that list are forms that were previously in the program (form2, form4) and now I have specific names for each form, neither being "form2" or "form4". When I attempt to debug, the program runs on a big blank 800x600 grey form.
View 1 RepliesI have had this issue for quite a while. In fact since VS2005 it concerns me more because so few other people report it.During a build, from the VB IDE I get the following errorvbc : error BC30143: Unable to embed resource file xthis continues for approximate 38 files. The associated system error is &H8007000e - this system error suggests a memory issue. I do have 4GB RAM in my dev machine. I am running Vista SP2 (although I have had this error since XP)I have tried the /3GB switch and the largeaddressaware 'fix', but this can cause issue with other applications.
If I get the above error in the IDE and then go and do a command line build, there is no problem.Periodically I also get numerous system.outofmemoryexception, this can happen when I try and open a form for editing for example. Other times the 38 entries can appear under a number ocircumstances, such as closing a formas if there is some kind of background compile going on (which I am sure there is).The above problems may not be related, but given the memory link of the 2 errors I think they are.
Just adding a file to my application so when it is published the file(s) goes with it is not enough, this application has links in it so when you click the links the file and it corosponding application open. I can link to the file on my computer easily, but this application is going to be distributed via CD or DVD so i need these file to go with them or the links are useless. I would just point the links at the cd drive, however not all PC's have the same drive letter making a default drive link a little complicated( yes im a newbie ). Here is a sample of what im working with, i want to link to 3 file types .docx, .pdf(thanks ADOBE SDK), .ppt and the like. so far the applications are working great so all i need is either how to add all of these files to myapp and link internally or some knowledge on how to write a link to the CDROM drive as oppossed to the D: or E: drive specifically. Here is a snip of a MSWORD link-
