I am trying to use VirtualQueryEx to read the memory of a process (first instance of notepad in this case). This function returns a pointer to the MEMORY_BASIC_INFORMATION structure. I am trying to read this structure.But everytime I try to access a member of the structure, I get a zero, which indicates I am messing something up.I am copying my code here.

I'm making a "wrapper" for an unmanaged DLL (written, I'm fairly certain in C). I have a c++ "wrapper" that I'm trying to convert to VB.net. I've got most of the program working, but I've hit a brick wall.
I'm trying to convert the following two structures from their c++ versions to their vb.net versions. I cannot be sure which is the problem because both must be passed at the same time. The error I am getting is thrown by the object and indicates "Invalid structure size specified". I can cause this error on other objects when I either don't set the dwSize variable, leave off a parameter or change the parameter type incorrectly. Note that the dwSize parameter is supposed to contain the size of each structure. I'm successfully calculating that for my other structures and I'm using the same method on these and the results appear correct, so I do not believe the problem is found there. The object uses a lot of structures and the rest of them are working. These two are the only ones with a) an unsigned character pointer b) an unsigned long array and c) doubles.
C++ versions:
CODE:
I don't think I'm missing any parameters - the help file seems to agree with me on this, but it's theoretically possible that there is something missing (though I don't think so for other reasons as well). My suspicion is that it's dwPalette, pImageData or pMaskData with (in my uninformed opinion) more suspicion on the pImageData and pMaskData.
i'm writing an application that using a picture-box (raster image, like a map).I want to show some label when my mouse pointer passing at some area.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to figure out how to print specific members of a structure when I only have to pass the structure itself i.e.
Dim Point1 as PointF = New PointF(15,30)
Debug.Print(Point1) ' This will output "{X = 15, Y = 30}" by default
I am trying to figure out how I can do the same with my own strucutres, for example:
Dim Point2 as PointF2D = New PointF2D(15,30)
Debug.Print(Point2) ' This will output "ClassName.PointF2D.Point2"
How can I get my structures, when passed to a print statement, to print specific members of that structure by default? P.S. Please give another way other than overloading the .ToString function.

I'm sure there are several ways of achieving my goal but I am after opinions on what you think is the best option. I'm writing a vb.net application which (amongst other thinks) interfaces with media players in the home. Because there are different types of media playersI'm trying to structure it so each type of media player has it's own class which interfaces to a management class which sits on top of all the different devices types.
The device classes are responsible for discovering the phsyical devices and returning that information up to the management class. A device class may be responsible for monitoring 1 or more physical devices so..

How can I declare pointer to pointer in ATL. Actually I have a handle which I want to pass by address to function. As shown below
STDMETHODIMP Function(HANDLE* hHC) //HANDLE declared as void * so actual type is void **
OR
STDMETHODIMP Function(LONG **hHC)
And want to access this function from the VB client.

I'm new to VB 2008 after having spent a long time with VB6, so I apologize if this is a stupid question. But I'd really like to have this straightened out.
Let's say I have a pretty large structure that has lots of properties.
Code:
Now say that I want an internal database with about 10 instances of this structure total, describing, say, 10 different products that a store sells. When these values are loaded from a database, they remain totally static. (However, they can be different each time a program loads)
Now say that I have a class. Each instance of this class is a type of that BaseProduct structure. Meaning, each instance of the class pertains to one of the 10 types of products that the store sells. However, this class has additional properties that pertain specifically to each instance, which are not static.
Code:
Now, the problem here is... If I have 200 different transactions, each one contains an instance of BaseProduct. BaseProduct is HUGE, and is largely redundant (only 10 types possible), so I think it's a little silly to include a whole copy of it with EVERY transaction. However, the Transaction class really needs information regarding the base product it pertains to. Is there a way to, instead of declaring a New BaseProduct in the Transaction class, to simply make one of the properties of the Transaction class a pointer to a BaseProduct variable?
In VB6, I would accomplish this by making a BaseProduct(10) array, and then giving each Transaction an ID number referring to an entry in that array. But in VB 2008, using class structure, this is impossible. I can't define the BaseProduct(10) array outside of a class in a namespace, and if I define it in the actual application's form, then the class loses modularity since it relies on the application that's using it.
I am trying to communicate with an external device and i am trying to send a byte array to the external device via sockets but i am always getting a response the message size is too small so i am not sure what i have done wrong. Between the data type there should be no alignment present and all numbers are represented in little endian format. The char array is not null terminated as mentioned in the protocol specifications.
I have to send data based on a struct that embeds 2 other struct. So here's my vb.net code for the struct used to convert to byte array and the sending part.

View 2 RepliesI understand there are no pointers in VB.Net. I need to use something similar.The issue is that I have a structure that represent a deck of cards, with elements showing how many of each type of card there is. So I have my_deck.ace, my_deck.two, and so on.What I want to do is set a pointer called current_element that refers to any element in the structure. It may one time point to my_deck.three, and another time to my_deck.nine, and so on. It could point to any element.What I want to do is, for instance to set current_element to point to my_deck.ace, then decrementing current_element would reduce the count of aces by one.[code]that would work, but it's inelegant, I have about 30 different operations to perform, some of them using several lines of code. I'd like to avoid this if at all possible. I could tolerate doing it 2 or 3 times, but not 30.

View 7 RepliesI've got a 3rd party C application that's compiled to a non-.NET non-COM DLL. It has one simple function declared like so: Declare Function CapiTaxRoutine Lib "taxcommono.dll" (ByVal sInData As String, ByVal OutputData As String, ByVal intINPutLength As Long) As Integer
If I place the taxcommono.dll in my path (C:WindowsSystem32 is what I'm using because it's what the vendor recommends),I can wire up a call to the function and it works just fine.It returns a 1 or 0 for success/failure, but it also sets the value of the OutputData string parameter (using some C pointer magic I'm not familiar with) to a huge fixed width format return record that has the data I need.When I call it from a .NET .exe application, it works just fine.When I try to call it from an ASP.NET application via a referenced compiled .NET wrapper DLL, it runs but can't set that string.In order to get it to run, I can't have taxcommono.dll in my path, but rather have to place it in my Bin directory of the web project.Does anyone know of a reason it can set the pointer when called from an .exe application but not when called from a web app?The .NET wrapper DLL I'm using works when called from our ERP software, which is not web based. But when I add a reference to that same DLL in the web app, it won't give me that output value.am used to just getting a return value instead of a function setting the value of one of my input parameters.
