3rd-party TCP / IP Programs?
Oct 8, 2009I've spent the best part of the week learning about TCP/IP and sockets but it's really draining my enthusiasm for my project. The basics are simple enough and the MSDN examples are fine and I can put together a simple server/client easily now, but once I start getting into asynchronous connections, threading and all the other stuff, I'm getting bogged down and frustrated. I've followed a dozen tutorials and examples now and they're all too confusing and half of them simply don't work.
I think what's most frustrating is that I really don't wish to become an expert on sockets or TCP, which seems to be the advice on most forum replies. I really want to be getting on with my project which has ground to a halt since I started looking into this. Yes, I know the world isn't always that simple.
So, what I'm looking for is a 3rd party app or some working code that will let me set up a server and multiple clients. All I really want them to be able to do is to send strings to each other, without blocking the application. Really, that's it, just the ability to pass strings back and forth between server and client, preferably in as simple a format as possible - e.g SendMessage(Client,String).

Free An RCW That Is In Use?
Feb 10, 2010I have a loop that uses threading to manage an untrappable error in a function that runs from Excel. If the function processes with out issues, Excel closes. However, if a time out occurs Excel cannot close and the following error occurs: "An attempt has been made to free an RCW that is in use. The RCW is in use on the active thread or another thread. Attempting to free an in-use RCW can cause corruption or data loss."
The error occurs at FinalReleaseComObject(Me.xla) xla.Type is Excel.Application and Excel will not close unless it is released.
How can the thread be completely closed when a time out occurs?

'Snapping' To 3rd Party Application
May 28, 2009I am writing a small application that will display some info to my end user. I have another program that the end user will have open while running my appplication. What I am trying to do is have my application launch itself (and maintain positioning if other app location changes) and "tether" itself to the other application.Ideally the top left of my application would attach to the top right of the other application.I have tried for countless hours working with the GetWindowPos API but the values returned are either all zeros or it just doesn't work.I do a Try/Catch to see if the other app is running and I fetch the Handle of the process. This works fine. Then I try to get the positioning of this process and set my .Left property to the returned RECT's .Left property. no dice.This is Visual Basic 2005 ExpressOther application is a PuTTY window that is not a fullscreen app.

View 11 RepliesAdd XML Namespace Attribute To 3rd Party Xml?
Jan 20, 2009I'm using VB 2008 and I'm trying to add a xmlns="mynamespace" attribute to an XDocument's root element.The XML document is created by a 3rd party, and I have loaded it into a VB XDocument object. As it comes, it has no namespaces. I have been working on a local copy and I added in a namespace in a text editor, so that I can use the XMLToSchema in VB to enable intellisense etc, as per the instructions in the Beth Massi vids at MSDN. Now the rest of the code works I want to open the live documents again. Without the namespace, my XML literals don't resolve.I've tried unsuccessfully to add in the XMLNS property to the root tag using a few methods, and the nearest I got was the following three code samples.
Dim myNS As XNamespace = "urn:nbf:namespacename"
myXML.Element("nameofrootelement").Add(myNS)
^^^^ The namespace was added as the value of the root element, not as an attribute.
XML.Root.Add(New XAttribute("xmlns", "name"))
^^^^ Generated the error: Run-time exception thrown : System.Xml.XmlException - The prefix '' cannot be redefined from '' to 'name' within the same start element tag.
but
XML.Root.Add(New XAttribute("test", "name"))
^^^^ works correctly. Presumably it doesn't like me manually trying to set a reserved attribute? This namespacing seems way too over complex from some of the Googling I've done.I thought to .ToString it, then modify, then .Parse it also, but I wanted a better solution so that it would help me understand it a little better! I did try this though, and as you rightly point out, it affects all the descendants too, so thus it still breaks.
I will be working with multiple XML feeds all produced by different third parties, and I think for simplicity I will be leaving out the namespacing entirely!My own custom parsing function rewrites the third party feeds into one uniformed document, which then gets processed by another routine. I'll be able to add a ns to that intermediate piece of XML which will help when coding the secondary function.

View 2 RepliesMicrosoft COM References Vs 3rd Party?
Feb 17, 2012I'm still new to most of this but I seem to be finding that while you can load the Microsoft Reference Libraries at no charge, I'm told they are the slowest method to use.I have tested Gembox and only read about others. Is it worth the effort to deploy these 3rd party platforms, even if I'm working with small data sets, for the moment at least? Speed is one thing but when you're talking about 2 seconds vs 0.2 seconds, it's not worth $900 per seat.
Are there other 3rd party references which are Open Source, or no cost, etc...I would like to hear what the rest of us are doing on this?

View 5 RepliesThird Party DLL With Window Handle?
Oct 17, 2011I'm using a third party dll for my project and one of the function that is provided by the dll use form handle as one of the argument. But when i call the function, I'm not using any window form and it's just called from another class. So what value i should put for that argument?Here's the example of that function:
AVS_Measure (device_handle, form_handle, no_measurement)
After this function has been called, it will send message to the form_handle argument whether the measurement data is available and valid.I called this function from another class just for triggering start measurement and i have another function to retrieve the data. I do not have any form associate to it, what value i should put for this argument?
VS 2008 Getting Image From 3rd Party App?
Aug 23, 2009Some will remember my first thread about extracting an image from a 3rd party application. The solution that was offered was to use the Easy Screenshot class that is in the code bank.While this solution works, there are obvious drawbacks. I'm trying to fully automate this program, and needing the window to come to the foreground, even momentarily, defeats the purpose of it.Is there another way to get the image held in a picture box of a 3rd party application?

View 1 RepliesAccessViolationException Error When Trying To Interface With Third Party Dll?
Dec 28, 2011The error message that I've been getting for the past few months when trying to access functions of a specific third-party .dll using vb.net is this: "An unhandled exception of type 'System.AccessViolationException' occurred in test.exe Additional information: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt."
I've been researching this error message, and I have come to know that it is likely due to either attempting to access memory that isn't available or due to "enhanced" security features.I am trying to access a third party .dll. The functions in that .dll all deal in one way or another with Handle types (either returning them or accepting them as parameters). I understand that handle's can be essentially pointers to pointers (pointing to an entry in a memory table, which is itself a pointer), and I also understand that handle's don't, strictly speaking, exist in the .NET framework, but I do understand that through some combination of IntPtr's and possibly the Marshal class, they can be dealt with.
I don't believe vb.net's lack of a Handle type is the problem, because the dll function that I am calling, which on success returns a handle, returns a number <= 0 if the ip address it is searching for is not found, and the ip I specified doesn't exist. Also, the error really only occurs when executing the code from within the the Visual Studio environment. I compiled the executable and ran it 77 times(literally), and I only got the error on the 77th try.
I'm trying to find out all I can about this error. I would like to completely eliminate it. Could the error come as a result of something happening within the dll itself? The function asks for an ip address, and the ip address I have specified doesn't currently exist on the network, but as far as I know, the function handles that by returning a number less than or equal to zero. I am very confused as to what the problem could be. I have successfully interfaced with .dll's before. I've read about the hotfix for .NET 2.0 regarding this error message,but I'm a little skeptical. I've tried everything else I can think of, though, so I may give that a shot.I'm 100% certain that:
-I am calling the correct function within the .dll
-I am using a signature that matches the signature of the function
-The error has nothing to do with User Account Control.
The code is very simple to try to isolate the issue:
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Module test
