We are building application that stores objects to isolated storage using .NET runtime serialization. Problems occur when we update application by adding some new properties to the classes of objects we are serializing. So we want to do some kind of versioning of the objects in isolated storage so we can check if they are obsolete before they are deserialized.
View 4 RepliesI was reading an article about isolated storage and thought of doing the following.Encrypt files.Add them to Zip.Unzip the file,decrypt the content and copy all the files and folders into an isolated storage and then load a specific file into a web browser and launch lets say an HTML page I got stuck on the Isolated Storage thingy
here is a part of my code
'So far i unzipped the content of the Zip file
'Setup file streams to handle input and output.

The Windows Application we are coding uses an XML to store connection settings etc. The application also needs to update automatically online. The problem is that the config file is replaced when the application is updated and the user has to set up the application again (definetly not ideal!).I placed the XML file into isolated storage, no problems doing that. But still when the application is updated the isolated files get replaced/removed and the user has to reset their settings..
View 1 RepliesI'm restricted to .Net 3.5 so I can't use isolatedstorage.getfilenames() as in .NET 4. What I have below isn't working yet. I do get to the messageBox included in the code below but I can't find the file "IST_Log.txt" anywhere on Windows XP where I ran the program. I saw the messagebox appear 3 times meaning AppendLog was being called. What do I need to do to write this file on either XP or Windows 7?

View 1 RepliesTo the board: Lately I've been getting Runtime error 3447 ("The Jet VBA file (VBAJET.dll for 16-bit versions, or VBAJET32 for 32-bit versions) failed to initialize when called. Try reinstalling the application that returned the error") when attempting to open a certain program (not one that I designed, just downloaded and installed). I installed this program in January 2009, but this error began happening only this past July. someone else to information about the files vbajet32.dll and expsrv.dll. One site said that the problem was probably caused by the file expsrv.dll being absent, but I checked my System32 folder, and it's there. As far as I can tell, it has always been there (the computer was made in 2008, and as I said the program had always worked before). Vbajet32.dll is also there. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program, but error 3447 still occurs. I also tried uninstalling the program and installing an older version, but 3447 is still there.
I tried replacing expsrv.dll, thinking it might have been corrupt, but that didn't help, and I cannot register that dll anyway. I can't figure this thing out. Both of the files are there, and I didn't change any settings or anything anywhere between last January and this July. By the way, I am on Vista.
I put "isolated context" in quotes because I don't know what else you would call it. Basically, in C#, you can do this:
{ int i = 0; }
{ int i = 1; }
The curly braces create an isolated context which allows you to declare two variables with the same name in the same method or property logic. Is this possible in VB.NET? Also, what do you call this aside from an isolated context?
make objects from the ToolBox using code instead of changing existing objects invisible then visible later?

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.
I need some input how to storage some information.The information I wish to store is a list (1-300) that contains the following:
-Raw material (string)
-An array of Value (double or long)
-An array of Date (string preferably)
My first approach to this was looking at the structure statement but I couldnt figure how to use the array within the structure statement.

I have been trying to do this for about a month now (hard to get answer quick because of school), but i need to decrypt a file into memory. I know you have to "write all bytes to memory" but i have two problems with that, 1. I have never touched on that itself and don't know how to write the bytes of an executable to memory, 2. I still wouldn't know how to decrypt it in memory. Right now my code is:
ElseIf entype = "rc4" Then
If File.Exists(thepath & exerandname) Then
Kill(thepath & exerandname)

it checks if the file exist then deletes it, then it opens the file and decrypts (_4reversecr.enc) the file(Cutter(1)) with the key (key)?

How do I make my program know that time is passing and interact with it? Currently I'm trying to use a method like this:
Imports System.Globalization
Private Sub CurrentTime_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CurrentTime.Tick
Dim date_info As DateTimeFormatInfo = _
CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat()
ToolStripLabel1.Text = Now.ToString(date_info.ShortTimePattern)
End Sub
That sets the current time to ToolStripLabel1.Text it looks like: 10:25 PM. Then I made another timer, realizing I couldn't interact with Toolstriplabel1.text because the time contains " : and PM", and this timer does this:
Private Sub Timer2_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer2.Tick
TextBox48.Text = Val(ToolStripLabel1.Text)
End Sub
Basically it takes the value of toolstriplabel1 which would be "10" it gives a variable 1-12 in accordance with the current time. Then I have another timer that handles the main process, and in My.settings I have a variable:
My.settings.12hourspassed
So I was going to use My.settings.12hourspassed as a variable such as My.settings.12hourspassed = My.settings.12hourspassed + 1 - whenever the time (textbox48.text) goes to 12.
Private Sub Timer_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer.Tick
If Val(TextBox48.Text) = 12 Then My.settings.12hourspassed = My.settings.12hourspassed + 1
If Val(TextBox48.Text) = 12 Then TextBox48.Text = "1"
End Sub
The problem is that I cant do textbox48.text = "1" because another timer is making it the value of the current time.. So whenever textbox48.text = 12 it constantly does: My.settings.12hourspassed = My.settings.12hourspassed + 1...
I know that this method completely skips an hour and such.. accuracy isnt all that huge. Any way to tick off whenever 12 hours have passed? and if the program is turned off a way to compare the current date with the date the program turned off at to see how much time has passed while the program is off?

Is there any way I can store and change info even if the application is moved to another location?
