How To Compile A .VB File
Jul 20, 2011
I'm trying VB.Net for the first time, and I must say, after spending two hours pulling my hair out (literally!) and trying one thing after another, I am severely disheartened. I just want to compile a simple .vb file. I used notepad to create a helloworld file. Then my problems started. The book I'm using told me to use a command prompt, and enter:vbc helloworld.vbNo dice, though. The vbc command was kicked out by the command prompt. I installed Microsoft Visual Basic 2008, and tried again. No dice. Double checked to make sure I had all my updates - check, but still nothing. So I just went ahead and double clicked the the helloworld.vb file. It displayed the text, but still didn't compile, and it wouldn't even allow me to debug it.

I have used Resource Hacker to extract all the files from an .exe so I could translate the menus right (translating in the program shows me wrong characters). Now I want to compile these files into an .exe file.How can I do that?

My senior project is a program that converts the "Pseudo Code" to a "C++ code" , I finished from the Parsing part and everything is going good with me ..
The C++ code will be saved into a file with ( .CPP) extension , copy this code and open it in (Borland C++ pogram as an example ) so the user will Run it easy with C++ Compiler ?!
The idea is that the user can also test the result of the converted code

I have added a resource file in App_GlobalResources called FileList.resx. Now I access the contents within the code by using My.Resources.FileList.astro1 etc. It works fine if I set the Build Action of resource file to Embedded. However in this case the resource file is not available after compile and I can't change it later. If I set the Build Action to Content I get an error : Could not find any resources appropriate for the specified culture or the neutral culture. Make sure "WAP.FileList .resources" was correctly embedded or linked into assembly "WAP" at compile time, or that all the satellite assemblies required are loadable and fully signed.

I'm creating this thread simply because I can't figure out how to compile my .sln file extension project. I've basically created a Win32 application (not cmd.exe dependable) in my current project, but I just can't compile it.I can't really find a compile button?

is it possible to take a compiled help file and add this as a resource to an application and have it compile into the .exe? I know you can do this with graphics, The reason I ask is because the customer wants just an exe to distribute - not a whole install program.

I got all the files i need, the .dlls, my .exe, and my resources, but the tut's i have been finding havn't been working for me. [URL] tried that with a few adjustments after it didn't work twice, and still no luck.

I have a Linq-to-SQL class diagram in my web application containing the two tables in my database (held in a DBPro database project in the same solution). All was working fine yesterday. I start doing some work tonight and note that the solution compiles fine in Visual Studio, but when I run the web app I get a compilation error:
Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately.

I have a set of classes that mimics enums (see my other questions for specific details/examples). For 90% of my project, I can compile everything in at design time. But the remaining 10% is going to need to be editable w/o re-compiling the project in VS 2010. This remaining 10% will be based on a templated version of my Enums class, but will generate code at runtime, based upon data values sourced in from external configuration files.what my Enums class looks like. The templated fields, per that question, will be the MaxEnums Int32, Names String() array, and Values array, plus each shared implementation of the Enums sub-class (which themselves, represent the Enums that I use elsewhere in my code).I'd like to parse values from a simple text file (INI-style) of key/value pairs:
[Section1]
Enum1=enum_one
Enum2=enum_two
Enum3=enum_three
So that the following code would be generated (and compiled) at runtime (comments/supporting code stripped to reduce question size):
Friend Shared ReadOnly MaxEnums As Int32 = 3
Private Shared ReadOnly _Names As String() = New String() _
{"enum_one", "enum_two", "enum_three"}
[code]....
I'm certain this would need to be generated in MSIL code, and I know from reading that the two components to look at are CodeDom and Reflection.Emit, but I was wondering if anyone had working examples (or pointers to working examples) versus really long articles. I'm a hands-on learner, so I have to have example code to play with.

When I load my solution and compile it after first starting the IDE, everything works as expected. After changing source and recompiling, I get the following compile error:
Error 11 Unable to copy file "objDebugCAMDRS.Library.dll" to "binCAMDRS.Library.dll". The process cannot access the file 'binCAMDRS.Library.dll' because it is being used by another process. CAMDRS.Library.
After closing Visual Studio 2005 and reopening the solution I can compile again successfully. This is an old solution that has been fine for a long time. I just recently changed computers and reinstalled everything.I am running win XP Pro sp2, Visual Studio 2005 sp1.

I got a situation where I have a group of projects in a solution. All the projects are dll's except one - which is an exe. When I run the project, it compiles all the dll's except one of them - for some reason this dll needs to be manually compiled.
I have my options set to save projects on run and to build projects that are out of date. This works for all my other dll's except this one.
Do I have something set wrong in this particular dll?

I have a small form program that is basically an interface for installing different software packages so that we can distribute a CD with our products that our customers can just pop in the drive, autorun, and click the button to install what they need. The problem that I am running into is unlike when I had built this same program in VB6, the program rewritten in VB.net will not run on some machines, and shows me an error: .net Framework initialization error. required version of .net framework v2.0.50727.
I realize that it is asking for that version of .net framework in order to run, but what I would really like to know is if there is a way to make my exe non-dependant on this so that it will run on any machine. Requiring my customers to install .net framework in order to access an interface designed just to idiotproof the installation of some setup files and provide easy access to a few pdf's really would just defeat the purpose.

lot of computer users don't have Framework 4.0 and aren't interested in installing it. I can build my programs in 2005 Express but I have Framework 4.0, and if the computer user doesn't have 4.0 the user gets an error. Is there any way to specify that framework 1.5 be used for the build? (I'm assuming I could find 1.5 somewhere.)

I recently upgraded my PC and software from XP 32-bit to Windows 7 64-bit. I'm using VS 2008 and SQL Server 2008, and I write code in VB.Net. I'm interested in compiling my code in 64-ibt. Under Visual Studio, I see three different places to specify which CPU to compile under: 1. In Solution Explorer, click 'My Project', then Compile->Advanced Compile Options->Target CPU.
2. On VS menu, Build->Configuration Manager->Active solution platform.
3. If #2 is set to x64, then in Solution Explorer, click 'My Project'->Compile, and at the top, Platform (if #2 is not set, the only option available here is Any CPU).
