PrnAdmin.Ports Converting __ComObject To PrnAdmin.Port
Nov 6, 2008
I have written several classes that use System.Reflection to create xml serializable classes. I am currently working on on enumerating printer objects using PrnAdmin.dll. The PrnAdmin.Ports method returns as an object. When I enumerate through the ports I use the following code
Code:
Dim _Master as New PrnAdmin.PrintMaster
For each _Port as PrnAdmin.Port in _Master.Ports(ServerName)
[code]...
While debugging I put my mouse Over the _Port variable and it is represented as System.__ComObject instead of PrnAdmin.Port. Even when I use _Port as an Object and try to use CType to convert it to a PrnAdmin.Port it is still shown as a System.__ComObject.
My question is... How can I get the underlying type of a __System.ComObject so that I can expose PropertyInfo and MethodInfo members?

I'm learning the serial port programming. So, I study the code samples from MSDN - VB101SamplesBCL2 http:[url].....While ran the solution of "UsingTheSerialPort", It shows error: It highlights one sentence textBox2.Text = SerialPort1.ReadLine() -- Line 40 ,and says :
"InvalidOperationException was unhandled - Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'textBox2' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on."

I was wondering if its possible for VB to display all available COM ports that are open. he reason that I ask this is because this program will be run on various computers where the COM port will not always be the same. I have a text box now that the user can choose which com number he/she wants but if the wrong one is entered, the program crashes rather than displaying an error message. It would also be nice for the system to show which available com numbers there are

Code: Dim dom As New DOMDocument30 dom.async = False
dom.Load(serverAddress & "/App/filelist.jsp?type=content")
For i = 0 To dom.childNodes.item(1).childNodes.length - 1 downloadfile(dom.childNodes.item(i), mcount, currentpath) Next
The above code is activated upon clicking of a button. i have the server address declared. and using the domdoc to load the jsp file to generate the xml data. and using for loop, i call the download file function which accepts the following parameters
Code:Public Sub downloadfile(ByVal domdoc As Xml.XmlNode, ByVal totalcount As Integer, ByVal currentpath As String)
The totalcount and currentpath work fine, but when i pass in the dom.childNodes.item(i) , error pops up.

I am trying to get my 4 port USB relay board to work in VB.net using the COM PORT. I found some code from a poster who has the 16 port USB relay version. When trying his code i can only get it to turn on relays 1-3 all at the same time. The product can be found here: USB 4 port relay
"01+//" - Relay 1 is switched ON
"01-//" - Relay 1 is switched OFF
"02+//" - Relay 2 is switched ON
"02-//" - Relay 2 is switched OFF
[code].....
So i am confused as to how to separate each relay out with that code above and just be able to turn on any number 1-4 relay on or off independently from each other!

We need to put a firewall in between our servers and a couple of clients. To do this we need to limit the number DCOM ports available so that we know what ports to open on the firewall.The question I have is do we need to limit the number of ports on all the machines inside the firewall as well as outside. This would cause an issue as we have lots of machines which would need to be modified.If DCOM has the intelligence to negotiate on port 135 which port is available on both machines which need to communicate, we will only need to modify the 2 machines on the outside of the firewall.

I Need to be able to read an unknown number of serial ports (I plan to limit the number to 10). I'd like to use a datareceived handeler for all of them. This is what I came up with, that seems to work with my test ports. However I'm wondering if thiscould cause any problems if more data is received than I'm currently testing with. It is possible that one or two ports will be transmitting 16 records per second each. Here is the code I'm testing with:
