Post-Compile Import To Resources
Nov 13, 2011I was wondering if there is a method I can use to allow an import of files into my resources after compilation

View 2 RepliesLets assume that I code a DLL in .Net and I've added some items to the project (For example a picture, or an XML file that contains some kind of configuration for the DLL), and I set the "Copy to output directory" to be "Copy Always".
Now, what I wanted is that if I give my compiled DLL with the bunch of files that were added as items to it, then if someone ads a reference to the DLL in his project then on compile it will copy all files and not just the DLL.
Is it even possible (Some kind of configuration on Visual Studio maybe)?
If I have a Win32 Form project that requires to load a text file and also other picture files that is resides in the bin folder, is there anyway that I can deploy into a single standalone EXE file to user so that user won't see the extra files.

View 2 RepliesI am working on a project where my forms resize to fill the users screen (which means they have different dimensions depending on screen resolution).I have made some vector images (.eps) in hopes of using them on my forms so that when the form opens the images always look clear, crisp, and not skewed.I am finding that vb.net will not let me import a .eps file into my resources. Is there a way around this? Is there another way to get a vector image into vb? possibly an SDK that will allow me to work with .eps files the same way i work with .dcm images?
View 8 RepliesI made a picture box and imported an image named Title.jpg. Later I made adjustments to the picture and imported it again without deleting the original(mistake). The new one had the name automatically changed to Title1.jpg. So I deleted the original image from resources and renamed Title1.jpg back to Title.jpg.
Now I got two problems. First, only Title.jpg is on the solution explorer, but Title1.jpg(along with Title.jpg) still pops up on the resource list when I click on Image property of the picture box. There's only the name and no picture, and I don't see a delete option. How do I get rid of it? Second, even though I changed the image to the new Title.jpg in the picture box, the old one is displayed when running the app. What's up with that?
I have a Linq-to-SQL class diagram in my web application containing the two tables in my database (held in a DBPro database project in the same solution). All was working fine yesterday. I start doing some work tonight and note that the solution compiles fine in Visual Studio, but when I run the web app I get a compilation error:
Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately.

View 4 RepliesI got a situation where I have a group of projects in a solution. All the projects are dll's except one - which is an exe. When I run the project, it compiles all the dll's except one of them - for some reason this dll needs to be manually compiled.
I have my options set to save projects on run and to build projects that are out of date. This works for all my other dll's except this one.
Do I have something set wrong in this particular dll?
Let's say that I have an entire project build in C# and other project build VB and I made a reference to this VB project Because this two projects need to interact between each other. Is this possible? the compiled code of this two project could live together??. Also if i made the same project VB and C# the compiled version are the same??
View 4 RepliesLet me explain a bit.... let's say I already have MARIO.EXE and I want to create another (let's call it) SETUP.EXE that must have 2 buttons 'Yes' & 'No' How can I build the setup.exe and bundle these two apps together and when the newly exe (mario.exe + setup.exe) is created and launched : -if the 'yes' button is pressed it should continue with the mario.exe installation process -if the 'no' button is pressed then quit. What i don't know is the code and and how can I compile these 2 exe in a single one.
View 10 RepliesIm using Visual Studio 2008 in Windows 7. Recently I cannot debug(F5) any projects because this following error is appearing
Error while trying to run project: Could not load file or assembly 'WindowsApplication5' or one of its dependencies. The module was expected to contain an assembly manifest.
I have a small form program that is basically an interface for installing different software packages so that we can distribute a CD with our products that our customers can just pop in the drive, autorun, and click the button to install what they need. The problem that I am running into is unlike when I had built this same program in VB6, the program rewritten in VB.net will not run on some machines, and shows me an error: .net Framework initialization error. required version of .net framework v2.0.50727.
I realize that it is asking for that version of .net framework in order to run, but what I would really like to know is if there is a way to make my exe non-dependant on this so that it will run on any machine. Requiring my customers to install .net framework in order to access an interface designed just to idiotproof the installation of some setup files and provide easy access to a few pdf's really would just defeat the purpose.
I'm trying VB.Net for the first time, and I must say, after spending two hours pulling my hair out (literally!) and trying one thing after another, I am severely disheartened. I just want to compile a simple .vb file.
I used notepad to create a helloworld file. Then my problems started. The book I'm using told me to use a command prompt, and enter:
vbc helloworld.vb
No dice, though. The vbc command was kicked out by the command prompt. I installed Microsoft Visual Basic 2008, and tried again. No dice. Double checked to make sure I had all my updates - check, but still nothing. So I just went ahead and double clicked the the helloworld.vb file. It displayed the text, but still didn't compile, and it wouldn't even allow me to debug it.
heres my code :
If File.Exists(TextBox2.Text) Then
If File.Exists(Application.StartupPath & "config.vb") Then
Dim pr As New Microsoft.VisualBasic.VBCodeProvider()
Dim cp As New CompilerParameters()

I can build my programs in 2005 Express but I have Framework 4.0, and if the computer user doesn't have 4.0 the user gets an error.

View 5 RepliesI recently upgraded my PC and software from XP 32-bit to Windows 7 64-bit. I'm using VS 2008 and SQL Server 2008, and I write code in VB.Net. I'm interested in compiling my code in 64-ibt. Under Visual Studio, I see three different places to specify which CPU to compile under: 1. In Solution Explorer, click 'My Project', then Compile->Advanced Compile Options->Target CPU.
2. On VS menu, Build->Configuration Manager->Active solution platform.
3. If #2 is set to x64, then in Solution Explorer, click 'My Project'->Compile, and at the top, Platform (if #2 is not set, the only option available here is Any CPU).
