View 16 Repliesis it possible to make one application send a task to another application and recieve the result from that secondary app?i made a text editor program and i added a scan feature and i made another app that has ocr capabilities.The scanner ability is in my text editor program, the ocr program doesnt scan you have to input an image into it and it will give text result a few seconds later.the prob is alot of times the ocr code uses sooo much memory and crashes when its incorporated with my text editor, but individually each application works fine and doesnt take too much memory. Memory wont be even an issue if the ocr program is standalone so that when it is done decoding image the application can be made to exit. now here is the question, how do i make my text editor send the image to the ocr program and how do i make my ocr program send the text back to my text editor? is it possible? i mean the only way i know off is creating temp files in a certain folder and having a timer on each program that keeps waiting for temp files. That just seems like pretty lame coding to me i was wondering if there's a better way?

View 13 RepliesI use SetParent to make an external application a "child" of my Main .Net application. This works fine.What I need to know is why can't I use Me.MDIChildren(0)I thought that using SetParent would increase the number of children by 1, thus allowing me to reference it with the above code, but it shows there are no children in the array.I have been trying, without luck, for 2 days to try to maximize an external app being displayed in my app. I can get it to display, but I would love it if it could Dock to the same size as its container (a panel)
View 3 RepliesI am making a exe application and i am using mysql as my database. So the thing is, when i change to a new computer, i need to change the file path for the database connection string to that computer.
like below:
Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=----------SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Flexlink;" & "Integrated Security=SSPI;"
i need to change the data source = --------------- SQLEXPRESS to the computer name that i am using for my project.
May i ask is there any method such that the user dont have to go in to the source code to change the computer's name like those normal installer?
Just install and the application will run according like any exe file that we buy.

View 11 RepliesI have a problem I've been struggeling with for a full week now, and I'm not able to solve it by myself. I've been googeling, and searching in all kind of forums.I have found lots of "this might work", tried it, but no, no success. If anyone have any clue,I'v got, from an external source, lots of classes and functions written in VB that I need to be able to use from a C++ application. My first though was: no problem, I turn the VB code into a dll, and load it from my C++-program. This was though harder than I ever could imagine. My C++-program is not written in Visual Studio, but for simplicity I started with trying to load my VB dll (written in Visual Studio 2010) from a Visual Studio C++ application. This is my code so far:

I looked at the link with the tutorial, but there is a small problem: there are no such thing as "ActiveX DLL" to choose among all the project types. And yes, I do have Visual Studio 2010 Professional (a trial version, but still).
I'm trying to make a composite application.Lets say there are two regions with a view in each that interact with each other via drag and drop, view A contains a list of tasks that view b (which contains a list of People) doesn't really know about.When I select some tasks in the list from view a and drop it to another list maintained by view b which module should know what happened? does the module that maintains the tasks need to know about the module that maintains the people, or vice-versa? Where should I start?

I am new to VBA and looking at an application code, being developed by some one. Although I do get an over view but not entirly sure what these lines of code do, speciallyAddress(True, False, xlA1). I figured it is property but not sure how it works
ColNum2ColRef = Cells(1, ColNum).Address(True, False, xlA1)
ColNum2ColRef = Left(ColNum2ColRef, InStr(1, ColNum2ColRef, "$") - 1
After trying to make an application multithreaded, almost towards the end of the processing of 10,000 records, I get a webexception - operation timeout.Now it seems to process around 8000 records just fine, for each record it is also doing some business logic and with it, performing a call to a webservice.
without threading, its fine - no problems. with threading, we hit the issue.so there are 10,000 records to go through. this is of course slow when done in sync mode (Single threading) but much faster when placing items in the threadpool and waiting until completion.
im not sure exactly why the problem happens. how should I debug this when multithreading? its just odd that for around 3/4 of records, the calls are doing very well, then on the last bit to go, it bombs out.
again - no issues when single threading.update: seems to be after around 1000 records that have been processed that it seems to happen.the application calls out to an internal webservice which then does the direct callout to the "outside world" webservice. The internal webservice does some caching but shouldnt have any effect really.
The outside service it is calling is httpBinding. ReceiveTimeout is set to 00:10:00 (10 minutes) and bypassProxyOnLocal="false"im still not quite understanding why it would timeout after 1000 records because it seems to process the others just fine and does come back (or so it seems) when its making a call to the service
Or in another way of understanding how to bypass the firewall of Windows in VB.NET?
