Getting VB To Control Objects Outside Of Computer

Nov 9, 2009

I am told that the code does not seem to contain any reference to a template file for controlling the device. This information might be in the array StatoCubo, and perhaps the text file is used to populate that array, but there is no code here to do that.

I am using VB 2008 Express edition. I did not write the code below but i was told that it works but it dont. I am building an 8 x 8 x 8 led cube and have most of the code i need to make it work but i can not figure out how to make VB callup(?) a .txt (template)file to control the cube designs. Below is the code so far (some of it is in Italian i think) and the file name i want to use is; RainbowExplosion_8x8x8_bw_bit01 VER1.txt

Public Declare Sub Out Lib "inpout32.dll" Alias "Out32" (ByVal PortAddress
As Integer, ByVal Value As Integer)\par

'--------------------------COSTANT FOR LPT1
ADDRESS--------------------------------\par

Public Const IndirizzoData As String = "&H378" 'DATA REGISTER: 8 bit\par

Process Of Designing A Computer Control Program To Control A HF Communications Receiver?

Jul 11, 2008

I am in the process of designing a computer control program to control a HF communications receiver (radio), and have found a problem with the Serial port. I am using VB Express Edition 2008. This module of the program is supposed to take an input string from another part of the program, format it, break it into 4 bytes, and send it to the radio in hex form via COM port 1. The problem comes in when you try to enter a frequency with an 8 or a 9 in it. The 8 or 9 is usually replaced by 45, ex.-input 9900, receiver tune 4545. The exact same thing happens with 8's, input 8800 and receiver tune 4545. All other numbers other than 8 or 9 work fine. The strange part of it is that sometimes the 8's and 9's work, and work correctly. For instance, 900, 1900, 2900, 3900, 4900, 5900, 6900, and 7900 all work correctly. This led me to believe that is may only be when the 8 or 9 is in the first position, but that is not the case, it also shows up in other positions as well. All other frequencies that do not have 8 or 9 in them also work. I ran into this same problem with VB Express 2005, and worked on it for weeks before giving up and going back to VB6.0. This same module (with exception of the port open command) runs flawlessly under VB6. I have even tried importing the MSCOMM control from VB6, but it gives the same results. In de-bugging mode, all of the inputs, decimal and hex seem to be correct, so the problem must come in after you click the command button, but before it leaves the COM port.

What if someone wants to make a 2D array of control objects. For example creating a "table" of 8x8 buttons that will be able to change properties by using the arrays x-y coordinates. Something like button(x,y). backcolor.black or similar.

Control Array Of Datagridview Objects?

Oct 13, 2011

Migrating from VB6, a control array of flexgrid objects. Obviously flexgrid is not supported by VB.NET, so DataGridView objects have to be used instead. I tried this alternative to placing them in a list.

I have two DataGridView objects which share a lot of code as well as event handlers. They are named D1 and D2 and many properties, such as column headeders etc., are set at define time. The control array is simulated by passing the "index" and selected grid as parameters in subroutines. For example, the routine to fill the grids, is as follows.

Remote Control Of An Apple Computer From A Pc?

Feb 17, 2010

I need to have a PC talk to a Mac (apple) over a network (or alternately the internet, SSH, whatever works) in such a way as to open a shell window on the Mac to execute a number of commands to have it talk to a UNIX box and transfer files from a device attached to the Mac to the UNIX box where it can then be accessed later on in an shared area (SAMBA) by the PC.

The Mac has a fixed IP and I can have it configured to open the appropriate ports, but I would like to minimize any potential security issues.

Part of the reason why is the copy time is significantly lower. Copying from the PC to the shared area takes over 90 minutes vs about 10 for the Mac. No doubt this has to do in part to translation and network overhead.

So I need to

1) Connect
2) Open Shell window
3) Execute commands
4) exit Shell window
5) Disconnect.

Install Microsoft FlexGrid Control 6.0 On A Computer Without VS 6.0?

Dec 11, 2009

My VB.NET application uses Microsoft Flex Grid Control 6.0. This is a legacy application which has been ported from VB6 with the Visual Studio conversion wizard. Although I can compile the assembly, I get a COMException because some class is not registered. I've found out that this class is the Microsoft Flex Grid Control 6.0.

Where can I find the control and how can I register it on machines so that the application will run?

Bind A List Of Custom Objects To A Listbox Control?

Jun 25, 2010

vs2010 vb.net WPF project

This is an experiment to learn something.

I have a class called logitem

it has a datetime property, and a message as string property

I have declared myLogEntries as List(of logItem)

I have a ListBox.

Ok now what?

I have searched but i am getting lost in all the examples.

I have set the ItemsSource=myLogEntries

I think i need a datatemplate or maybe to specify binding source.

I am doing all this in the wpf form loaded event.

I'm trying to bind a WinForms TreeView control to some user-defined objects. In particular, I'd like to bind aTreeNode.Text property to myObject.Name.

Control Arrays - Allocating Multiple Camera Objects Dynamically

Jan 19, 2009

I have a VB.NET application and use some third party (closed source) ActiveX controls. One of the controls represents a "camera" (connected over several interfaces) and I try to write an example how to work with several cameras in one application. To do this I allocate multiple "camera" objects dynamically as an array which works as expected like this:

Const NUM_CAMERAS = 2
Private MyCameras(NUM_CAMERAS ) As xxx.MCamera

But the camera objects needs to be allocated with WithEvents because they raise events when a new image was taken. I found out that WithEvents variables cannot be typed as arrays and this is a pretty common problem so I also found some workarounds: [URL]. This is already pretty good and I adopted this to my concept. So I have a MyCameras array and a MyCamera all "without Events", first allocate a new MyCamera object, add a event handler and then put it into the array.

Unfortunately I get an error when calling
AddHandler Camera.ProcessModifiedImage, AddressOf MyHook

Normally "MyHook" is declared as
Private Sub MyHook (ByVal sender As Object, ByVal ModifiedBuffer As xxx.ProcessModifiedImageEvent) Handles Camera.ProcessModifiedImage

Like in the "Button examples" I just removed the "Handles Camera.ProcessModifiedImage" but I get an error that "MyHook" has not the same signature as the Delegate
Delegate Sub ICameraEvents_ProcessModifiedImageEventHandler(ImageIndex as Integer)

Sockets - Check That If Another Computer In The Network Send Some String Data To The Listener Computer?

Mar 19, 2012

i have a task to create a TCP Server (a program that is listening on its network card interfaces for incoming data stream).I have search on the internet and i found that i can use two methods : Socket or TCPListener class.I have created an example for Socket class, but i wondering how could i test it? I need to check that if another computer in the network send some string data to the listener computer , then this message should be displayed.Here is the example from microsoft that i am using for TCP Server using Socket:

Public Shared Sub Main()
' Data buffer for incoming data.
Dim data = nothingc[code]....

But it does not work because of the PORT setting.If in the TCP Server i have "Dim localEndPoint As New IPEndPoint(ipAddress, 0)" the client crashes, but if i change the port from any (0) to 11000 for example,the client works fine.Do you know why?

Later edit2:Maybe i should have started with this question:Which method is recommended for my scope?asynchronous or synchronous method ?

Child Objects Raising Events In Parent Objects?

May 1, 2009

long story short, I have created a ListView type control, using UserControls for the parent control and the ListViewItems. Most the of the control is written and works fine, right up to the point where I tried to replicate the 'Control.SelectedItems(0).Index' property and the 'SelectedIndexChanged' event.

Each child object knows its index value, and could pass this value via the SelectedIndexChanged event (assuming this is how it works in a normal ListView control -- user clicks on an item, and that item fires an event updating the selected index value in the parent object).

How does the child object raise an event in the parent object? I have a feeling this could be done with Delegates, but I'm still learning about their usage.

Developing A Computer Application Designed To Monitor The Network And CPU Statistics On A Computer?

Jan 29, 2009

I am developing a computer application designed to monitor the network and CPU statistics on a computer remotely. The monitored computer would have my program installed and the monitoring computer would display, in a form, the information being sent from the remote client.The application does not send any information regarding packets, user names, passwords, etc. It is solely meant for monitoring CPU performance and Network resources remotely.

What would be the best method to send this information over to my host machine?I am programing in Visual Studio 2008 on windows XP. The client machine is also XP. I know this sounds a little shady, but it is required for my little business (http://www.iquorum.net) to monitor what and when something happens on our machines when I and my employees are away.

VB - Desktop Computer With Cable Connection On Back Allows To Watch TV On Computer Using Windows Media Center

Jun 12, 2010

I have a desktop computer with a cable connection on the back that allows me to watch TV on the computer using Windows Media Center. I had the idea of writing a program that would access this feed and send it to another computer (laptop) via my network. That way I would be able to watch TV from anywhere that my network spans. I have no idea if this is possible or how I would even do it,

So I have three questions.
1: Is it possible?
2: How would I go about access the feed?
3: How would I send it over the network?

My original thought was doing it in Flash, but I'm not very good at Flash so I wanted to do it in VB.Net.
