I always make back ups of my projects in case I'll really really mess up on the way and want to go back to more stable version. I've tried running one of my back ups few days ago and ended up with importing pfx key canceled. What exactly is pfx key? And what do I do to have my code compiled?
View 2 RepliesAfter reading a couple of tutorials, it seems that basically NET works quite like java. All the IDE's produce an intermediate code that I have to distribute, and which NET compiles at runtime to machine code and then executes it. Leaving aside the question why so when NET works only on Windows platforms, I have some other more practical questions:Is it possible to directly compile to machine code targeted at specific platform like XP 32-bit or Win7 64-bit?
View 2 RepliesIs one able to compile VB 6 code in Visual Studio.NET ? In other words, is it backwards compatible with older VB code?Since I know there is a difference between managed code (.NET) and unmanaged code, I am wondering if Visual Studio.NET is able to compile unmanaged code as well?
View 4 RepliesI've been using this article [URL]to add into my code the ability to compile code a user enters into a text box. I was wondering if anyone knows a way that I can pass in a variable that exists in yhe program that I have written. So the idea is in my program I have a variable, let's say a filename, that is used. The user of my program is writing their own program in a text box. When I compile the program they have written I want to be able to pass the filename from my program into theirs.

I have an .exe file in C++ (gunmake.exe).And... Check it out:
Dim dirNow As String = Directory.GetCurrentDirectory()
Dim dirFile As String = dirNow & "systemgunmake.exe"

That's what I'm doing to work with my .exe in VB.net.Is there a way to put my .exe into VB.net code?I say. All in one .exe by VB.net?No need to use the two files. :X
I wanted to provide programming support for an application I made. So I used System.CodeDom compiler and it allows me to execute vb.net code on the fly.The way it works is :
- I call the engine and pass references and code that it needs to run
- The code is able to access public subs
- results are obtained after processing completes.
[code]I want that if the code is being executed by user on seperate threads at the same time then their values should be independant. Right now this is not possible as module has been used and not classes.What I want is -> create object of class RunCode, it runs user code and returns. Thus the age variable in class runcode is not tampered with if at the same time another code is executed. But for that module module1 has to be a class also and how can user call Age sub if its a class. I mean user should be able to call all subs/functions by name and it should work like it was working right now.

View 4 RepliesI am trying to add some scripting to my VB.NET 2010 Windows Forms Application.I have figured out how to compile and execute VB.NET code stored in an external script file from within my app using Microsoft.VisualBasic.VBCodeProvider.CompileAssemblyFromSource and InvokeMember. I can also pass and return parameters to the code in the script file.In VB6 using the VBScript Host control, I could expose instances of objects in my app to the code in the VBScript.How do I do this in VB.NET?I'd like to expose a form object (the main form for my Windows Forms Application) to my VB.NET script.I don't want to pass the form as a parameter via InvokeMember.[code]
View 3 RepliesI did a search for "How do I implement Serial COM Port communications? and found a response by Xiaoyun Li which was last posted on April 10, 2009. Xiaoyun's response included sample code. My intent has been to get a clean compile on the sample code, then test it, then expand the code into a real application. I am down to a single error message, which I can't figure out how to resolve: "Method 'Public Sub DoUpdate()' does not have a signature compatible with delegate 'Delegate Sub EventHandler(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs)'." [code]I marked where the error occurs in the code with *** to the right of the error line.The code is attached to a simple form, Form1 which contains a single text box, TextBox1.It appears to me that the code needs a Delegate statement, but I can't figure out how to code it or where to put it.d.
View 3 RepliesI am using CompilerParameters to dynamically compile code... The problem is when I use:
cp.ReferencedAssemblies.Add(CompilerPath & "est.exe")
to add a reference to test exe ... (where CompilerPath is the full path name)
Compiler Path is not the Compiler Application Path
I get an error when compiling stating that:
vb
"Could not load file or assembly 'test, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."
If I put it in the test.dll in the "compiler apps" path and then call ReferencedAssemblies.Add with the full path it works.
I'm not sure I understand the point of CompilerParameters.ReferencedAssemblies. I thought they could be used in place of using Imports statements.I'm obviously wrong because even if I set CompilerParameters.ReferencedAssemblies.AddRange( {"System.dll", "Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll"}) I still need to use Imports System and Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic in the script for it to work.
Are the Imports used only so that I can use MsgBox() instead of Microsoft.VisualBasic.MsgBox()?What if my script "Imports Something.OrAnother" from an assembly called Something.OrAnother.dll. Do I need to scan the script looking for all of the Imports statements and then add them (plus ".dll") to the CompilerParameters.ReferencedAssemblies before compiling?
In one of my forms witch I imported from VB2008 there are all properties saved in the *.resx file. One Property, of the Type System.Windows.Forms.Keys, can contain the Value 'Ctrl+F1' witch compiles fine in VB2008, but not in VB2010. To reproduce, simply add the following to any resx file:
<data name="cmdFenster.ShortcutKeys" type="System.Windows.Forms.Keys, System.Windows.Forms">
<value>Ctrl+F1</value>
</data>
It will compile fine with VB2008, but not with VB2010. Notice: The VB2010 also generates this Code in the resx file
I am using the folowing logic to create an event that can be canceled...
Code:
Public Class ParentClass
Private WithEvents MySubClass As New SubClass
Public Sub DoSomething()
[Code].....
It is my opinion that if you needed multiple things to happen either you would implement some coordination between your event handlers as to who chould cancel when, or have one handler that calls the multiple methods and decides the cancel in one place?

Running VS2008 working on a customized DotNetNuke version. This issue has come up a couple of times figured I'd see if it's unique to this installation or if it's a IDE bug.
In short I have files that get locked as Readonly and the only way to unlock them is to do a build.
The app I'm working with takes > 60 secs. to build on my box. This error seems to reproduce fairly regularly but you'll need an app that takes a while to build to try it.
During a build try to edit a file.
You should get the error "Cannot currently modify the text in the editor. It is read-only." and a little lock should appear on the tab.
If you wait till the build completes the lock disappears and the file can be edited.
However if instead you cancel the build the file stays Read-Only until such a time as you either restart the IDE or run a build and let it complete.
Looks to me like someone forgot to call the unlock files method in the cancel event handler.
I'm trying to get a local HTML file to display within a WebBrowser in a VB.NET program. I'm using the code below, however it doesn't seem to work, and I can't figure out why:[code]The first method produces the error "" in the Debug console when I go to run it. If I try it with out the @, I get an empty white page. If I change the address, however ,so I know its a broken URL, I get a 404 message, which makes it seem like it's finding the file but not rendering it?The second method does the same as the first except no error is produced, its like its finding the text but doing nothing.

I have an application that we wrote here at work that uses the SharpSVN wrapper for SVN. It has served us well of the past few years. However, we have started bringing in 64-bit systems and our application cannot seem to access the SharpSVN dll on these systems. I have downloaded the 64-bit version of the SharpSVN dll and I am wondering what to do next. I cannot stop my 32-bit users from using the application, so I need to be able to compile for both platforms. Luckily, with this application, we split different layers of the ntier stack into separate projects within the solution so my business layer that utilizes the SharpSVN dll is on its own.How would I go about compiling both a 32-bit and 64-bit version of my application without having to maintain two copies of the project?

I am having difficulty dynamically compiling a DLL for use with Silverlight 3.0. My goal is to take some rules provided by my users and compile them into a DLL for custom editing purposes.I created a Silverlight class library project in Visual Studio to get the command line for compiling a Silverlight class library. Based on that and the many examples for compiling VB using the VBCodeProvider, I came up with the following method for comping code in a string to a DLL:
Public Function Compile(ByVal code As String, ByVal assemblyName As String) As CompilerResults
' set the compiler parameters
Dim parameters As CompilerParameters = New CompilerParameters()
parameters.OutputAssembly = assemblyName

This does not compile with the following error:vbc : Command line (0,0) : error BC2010: compilation failed : 'Member 'IsNumeric' cannot be found in class 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.Information'. This condition is usually the result of a mismatched 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll'.'
I've looked and, in fact, the Silverlight version of the class Microsoft.VisualBasic.Information does not contain member IsNumeric. So I appear to be picking up the correct libraries using the sdkpath option. But I have no idea why I'm trying to call that method in the first place.how to successfully compile source code dynamically into a Silverlight compatible class library?
Suppose I have a solution containing several projects. I set the compiling path as ..in folder. A reference file xxx.dll is used in project aaa, yyy.dll is used in project bbb etc.
xxx.dll and yyy.dll are stored in c:sharedlls folder.
My question is that if I compile the entire solution, do xxx.dll and yyy.dll are draged into ..in folder automatelly?
I am not clear the purpose of the compiling of the solution exactly.
