I am writing a program that the users can put their signatures on it and I am thinking that maybe I could use MSPaint then save it as an image file and save it on my database. The device I'm going to use is a touchpad. I don't know how to explain this clearly but the idea is simple.User Log IN > Verify User Account > Put their Signature on a picture box. By the way I am using Visual Basic .NET 2005.
View 13 RepliesI'm trying to create a small paint component( similar to MSpaint but not the same thing) in vb.net.I have a panel that holds the background image and a picturebox over the panel that I draw on. I'm using graphics to draw shapes and I have my own custom double buffer, meaning that I draw on the picturebox while the mouse ismoving and on mouse up I draw the final image on the buffer image and on paint event the buffer image replaces the picturebox image.also, i have set the form properties to enable double buffering
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.ResizeRedraw, True)
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer, True)
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint, True)
Me.UpdateStyles()
my problem is that no matter what i've tried the picture box keeps flickering. as long as the mouse is moving, the paint event keeps getting called and the image flickers like crazy what i need is more ideas(or pseudocode) on how to avoid flickering.
i am trying to draw a iamge in an mspaint control, and then put that image into a richtextbox but it will ask for save file and file has been saved i want to show image in richtextbox as soon as click on save file in dialog window.

View 1 RepliesI am looking for information on the best practices or project layout for software that uses SQL embedded inside VB.NET . The software will connect to a Access DB. The software was written in VB.Net .Update: To clarify. We are currently using OleDbConnection,OleDbDataAdapter, OleDbDataReader to connect to the database. What I mean by embed is that the SQL stored procedures are scripted inside our VB code and then run on the db. All of our tables, stored procs, views, etc are all manipulated in the VB code. The layout of our code is quite messy. I am looking for a better architecture or pattern that we can use to organize our code.

View 2 RepliesI 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 have a program that calls an executable, lzma.exe, to compress a file. lzma.exe also requires about 5 dll's. Is there any way I can embed lzma.exe and the 5 dll's into my program, so that they are not retrievable by someone?The reason is, if someone finds the lzma.exe, they could easily reverse-engineer my program and offer it free, putting me out of business.
View 5 RepliesI am developing a Windows Forms application in VB2008 Express that I want to run directly of the Internet and optionally off-line on another computer (e.g. using a USB stick), without any installation/setup. However I need to pass 2 parameters to it: the language as selected on the website (i.e. not the current culture) and one of the predefined partner names. I can do that for a ClickOnce application but this only works in IE and not off-line. As I cannot use a separate config file, cookie or shortcut, I am thinking of �embedding� the parameters in the exe. Given the large number of combinations (#languages * #partners), I want to create and upload these files automatically using a batch file. I am also thinking of digitally signing the application in the near future.
I can think of 3 ways of storing the parameters (e.g. language "EN" and partner "Abc"): 1.In the filename (e.g. Abc_EN.exe): but this is rather cryptic for end-user and he/she could decide to store it under another name, so not a great option; 2.In one of the file properties (e.g. as "-language EN -partner Abc" in the "Description" property of the "Assembly Information"): this works, but how can I automate the creation of the various exe files? 3.Somewhere with the digital signature???: but where and how and can I access this information from within the application?
I have looked at the Assembly Linker (AL.exe) to build the exe outside of the VS2008E IDE, as it allows me to specify the description property in the command line, but I cannot seem to find the proper syntax to build the entire project (including the form.resx and various icons) and it may be time consuming to do this for each exe file.
I have also looked at stand-alone utilities that can change the file properties (so I only have to build the exe once in the IDE), but have not found one that can do that through the command line. I could off course write my own utility, but I don't know if it affects the digital signature.
I am actually looking for "the proper way to do this" (if it exists). how to get the third option to work (possibly with �delay signing� and the Strong Name tool)?
