I am trying to use the SolutionEvents interface in Visual Studio and the sample it have is in C#. When I try to port it I get compile or run-time errors ("COM target does not implement IDispatch"). The problem is with the bold line on the bottom with the "+=" which does not work in VB. Removing the + causes a run-time error.
The C# code is:

View 8 RepliesI am trying to parse incoming data from a serial port that appears to be XML format but a few problems arise when going from a simulated setup to the real deal. I first made a this program at home using a serial port emulator and com port connector program that reads from a text file and then sends it through the com port, I then read it from the com port it is connected to it. My program is able to parse the incoming XML perfectly fine, I'm using an XML Literals syntax.
The problem I run into is when I setup my program with the device and try and parse the data that is coming out of it. The data I receive sometimes has a few lines of garble before it starts seeing my expected XML. Of course these few lines of garbled text throws me an exception, but even when it appears I'm getting a good clean start of my XML data my program still throws exceptions such as "unexpected end of line 1 line number (different lines)" or "multiple root elements line 1".
Am I going about this the right way? using XML Literals to process my XML string properly or should I use something else that will allow for not well formed XML? or am I just missing something. My device outputs data every 500ms and I can poll my device for stored data. An example of what I am receiving sometimes and what I am expecting is below. "The first few lines of text sometimes appear and sometimes don't" [Code]
I want to write a program that can control port communication in a PC by blocking certain port based on the admins request and also monitor incoming and outgoing network traffic. Can i achieve this using vb.net winsock?
View 1 RepliesI am implementing a custom iDispatchLLInvoke handler for VB.NET - some of this is working.So Far - I have been able to intercept and provide custom handling of simple functions and property calls - but I am stuck when I try to set a property and get an error "Invalid Pointer (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004003 (E_Pointer))".
I am using the new .NET 4.0 ICustomQueryInterface to do this. In Summary - I intercept and provide my own implementation of iDispatch - I load the dispIDs on the first call - and return a the dispID for each call within GetIDsOfNames - this ID is than passed to Invoke where reflection is used to get the value and return the result.
When I attempt to set a property - a call is made to GetIDsofNames and I return a valid dispID - the application than crashes with the error above and no call is made to Invoke.As a result - I am assuming that the issue relates to my interface definition been wrong becase the code never get's back to .NET code - see below for this code:
<ComImport(), Guid("00020400-0000-0000-C000-000000000046"), InterfaceTypeAttribute(ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIUnknown)> _

Recently, I've been running some tests with C++ and VB.NET to compare execution speeds. In the last thread I posted, I talked about how I had encountered the fact that C++ was executing just as fast as VB, but got that issue resolved. Now I'm hitting my head against another wall:I had made a DLL for VB.NET to test out this theory and compare in just one program side by side execution time of identical VB.NET and C++ code. But the interesting thing? VB.NET's execution time improved such that it was now exactly identical to the execution time of C++. Spending some time with the problem, I discovered that the "Target CPU" option in advanced compile options in Visual Studio 2008 was the culprit!
Since I'm running 64-bit Windows 7, I figured making the target CPU x64 would yield the best execution time. Wrong. Here are the results in execution time of a Windows Forms application for VB.NET,calculating all the prime numbers up to 10,000,000 and getting their sum.
Any CPU: 15.231 seconds
x86: 10.858 seconds
x64: 15.236 seconds

I have a VS 2008 VB.NET Solution, which is quite large. Every once in a while, if I take latest code from source control, I get hundreds of errors. These aren't real errors. They are all about classes not implementing functions/events from interfaces (which they DO implement).
"Class [class name] must implement [event or function name] for interface [interface name]"
I usually end up spending couple of hours doing a combination of: building/rebuilding the solution project by project, cleaning the solution, deleting everything locally, taking latest... etc. At some point, everything just magically builds.
I finish to makethe forms and the code of my project, but when I try to make the executable file it shows errors about some forms that I created as test but I deleted so I wonder where I need to go to take them out and try to build again my executable smoothly?Example: Unable to open module file :'C:....CrystalReport2.vb': The system cannot find the file specifiedNote: That CrystalReport file was eliminated because I didn't need it.

View 1 RepliesI have a .net application that uses customerrors web.config module to display meaningful messages for errors. It works without any issues for 500 errors/exceptions caused by non-ajax and ajax components (updatepanel). However, in a scenario where updatepanel's asynchronous request times out, there is no error raised at all. I was able to see the timeout in firebug and come up with a solution that would at least display the error message as an alert and then redirect the user to the 500 error page using javascript but it's not quite doing what the rest of the application does in case of an unhandled errors like these. I basically just want everything to go through "LogEvent" mechanism so based on the severity of the error, it does the necessary work.This 500 error page doesn't have anything in the Server.GetLastError() for these timeout scenarios. Is this an expected behaviour? Can it be changed so I do have access to these timeouts in Server.GetLastError() OR maybe just run this error through "LogEvent" mechanism? Is there a better/more graceful way to handle this issue?
Below is my code to give you an idea, not exactly what I have in my application but pretty close.

<customErrors mode="On" defaultRedirect="~/Errors/ErrorUnknown.aspx" redirectMode="ResponseRewrite">
<error statusCode="500" redirect="~/Errors/Error500.aspx" />

I am encountering the following issue So i have a device that sends stuff at the serial port, i then parse it and put it into an array of bytes like that:
Dim HCI_Command_Rcvd_Byte() As Byte All good till here What i wanna do is make an array and put this result every time the serial port gives me a new result, for example:

Basically what i wanna do is let the port parse the messages, fill in the array with the result at an empty spot in this array and then i will have a separate thread that will look in into this array in each non empty space and after it looks into the non empty space it will use or discard the info and also mark this space as empty (after it checked)
