Local Storage System For Relative Large Information

Nov 10, 2011

I've been reading a lot of articles here and there, really, for the past two days, searching for a good local storage system. I have no immediate use for now, so I am just exploring my choices. By saying 'local storage system,' I'm talking about some sort of database used for applications that let users manage and organize personal accounts (bank accounts, web site accounts, application licenses...). I do use XML to store user settings. But if you have to manage lots of information locally, XML won't probably be good enough, I'm afraid.

So what are choices Visua Basic users? Well, as I often mention, I develop Mac software products. And I use SQLite. In fact, every one of some 40 apps sold at Mac App Store uses SQLite for good reasons. I know that you can use SQLite with Visual Studio after installing a package from sqlite.phxsoftware.com. But I don't know if your application can reproduce a database file when necessary. That being said, I'm looking for a system that I can use to create a file programmatically especially when the user launches it for the first time. So what do you use to locally manage large information? SQL Express? SQLite? XML?

.net - Parallel.ForEach Local Storage?

Aug 3, 2010

I recently changed a For Each loop to a Parallel.ForEach loop. I'm concerned about an object being declared outside the loop but assigned while iterating in the loop. Here is the simplified code.

Dim results As ModelResults
Dim noResultsModel As New List(Of ModelResults)
Dim lock As New Object
Parallel.ForEach(_modelEngines,
Sub(model)

[Code]...

Is there a potential race condition with the results object? Would anything be different if I moved the declaration of results into the for loop?

DB/Reporting :: Use DataSet For Local Data Storage?

Mar 22, 2009

I need a simple method for a user to enter as many rows of data as they wish (probably won't exceed 50 in most cases and that's pushing it) and then store that data for retrieving the next time they want to reuse that list. I will also need to read the rows in for manipulating text in a file with those entries.

Would the best method to be to use the DataSet in VB Express 2008 and then use the DataGridView for allowing the display and entry of the data?

Resizing Image Before Uploading To Local Storage

Jan 6, 2012

I want to resize the resolution of an image before uploading it to local storage. Right now it saves the image in its full resolution and I have to manually resize it using width="200" height="200" or a css tag in aspx. I want to reduce the file size of an image before storing it, hence by resizing the image resolution when the user uploads it via button. I've tried using System.Drawing before and setting the int imageHeight and int maxWidth to be resized but couldn't seem to get it to work.

My code so far is:
Protected Sub btn_SavePic_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles btn_SavePic.Click
Dim newFileName As String
Dim SqlString As String
[Code] .....

.net - VB In Program Information Storage?

Oct 7, 2011

I'm making an installer that needs to have information stored inside the exe itself.I cannot use my.settings because it is stored outside the application and if it is changed and the exe is moved to another computer it will reset to default.

And I cannot use resources since I cannot add/edit resources after the application is build.

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

Large Array = System.OutOfMemoryException Workaround?

Jan 23, 2009

I'm downloading a bunch of files from a URI but when they get big, I get an utOfMemoryException. I thought at first it was MemoryStream error but I'm pretty sure now that the error is rooted in the declaration of an array of Bytes that's too large. (Half a gig is fine, 1.7 gig is not.)

Interface And Graphics :: Menu Navigation For Large System?

May 26, 2010

We are in the final stages of releasing a new in-house written system within our company. We have opted to create a single system/project containing multiple programs (like a mini ERP system).We are stuck on the navigation mechanism which will allow the user to load the appropriate forms. I am personally not a fan of the Tree View control because I think it is unfriendly to users. I have been looking on the web for some inspiration and I am interested in the design of the OPEN BRAVO ERP system. Before we dive in though, I wanted to get other programmers opinions. What do you find works best in VB 2008?

.net - Insert Large Blobs Into Oracle 10G Using System.Data.OracleClient?

Mar 26, 2010

Trying to insert 315K Gif files into an Oracle 10g database. Everytime I get this error "ora-01460: unimplemented or unreasonable conversion requested" whe I run the stored procedure. It appears that there is a 32K limit if I use a stored procedure. I read online that this does not apply if you are doing a direct insert, but I do not know how to create the insert string for a Byte Array. This is a thick client running on the server so not worried about SQL Injection attacks.

Email Code Works On Local System But Not From Web Server?

May 2, 2011

I have developed an ASP.Net 2.0 application and I am facing problem in sending email from my Web Server. Following is the VB code I have used to send email from my web application. Thing is when I try to send email from my local system (laptop) the email goes out fine and reaches the recipient address instantly but when I try to send email from my web server it fails.My hosting provider gave me a relay-host address for sending out email. The email goes out fine but the relay host has an annoying amount of delay in email delivery which is a problem during the sign up process.

Here is the code I am using:I have imported system.net.mail in my code and used async="true" on the aspx page.

Private Sub SendMail(ByVal actcd As String)
Dim mailMessage As New System.Net.Mail.MailMessage
mailMessage.From = New MailAddress(support@ihomejobs.com)

[code]....

I have tried the above settings and they work fine from outlook and the application when tried on my laptop but these settings fail on web server.I want to send email from my web server without using a relay-host.

IDE :: Creating Data Entry System For Local Community Group?

May 14, 2011

I am trying to create a data entry system for a local community group. I am working with VB.NET 2010 and MSAcess 2000. I am completely new to using a DB in VB.Net. I have created a form with the membership table bound as details on the form and the classes they are attending as a DataGridView. I used all the Visual Studio GUI tools for this. It was reasonably straightforward once I got the hang of things. My problems arise when I try to ensure that a user cannot move to a new record or create a new member without first saving any changes they have made.

I am using ColumnChanging events in the ...DataSet.vb class to set flags to indicate whether any data values have been changed on the form. My problem is that the ColumnChanging events for the classes DGV fire immediately on changing the data whereas the ones for the member details don't fire until I start to move to a new record. I don't know if it is important but my member navigation is achieved by means of a combobox on the form that lists the member names from the table. I have absolutely no idea why this works - it just did; the form updates as soon as the user selects a new member in the combo box.

System Keyboard Global Hook - Prevent Any Other (local) Interception?

Feb 20, 2010

My final goal is that striking F12 prints the date (through SendKeys) in the application/window having currently the focus (Word, Excel, Outlook, whatever). I have consequently implemented a globak keyboard hook (system-wide), which is running well (source code below).

My concern is that I would like to prevent any other local treatment based on F12. For instance, striking F12 under Microsotft Word prints the date is the open document (which is fine!) but also launches the "Save as..." dialog box, since F12 is a local shortcut/keybinding under Word. (Actually, the date is printed within a field of a the "Save as..." dialog box). I want to avoid this.

In other words, my aim is to improve the "hook" below so that striking F12 does what I want (which is already the case) but nothing more. That is to say, I would like that, except my treatment, the system "forgets" that F12 was striken.

Option Explicit On
