View 3 RepliesI have written a few different applications in the past few years, all of which are related in that they help users creating maps/levels for a certain game. I would like to 'bundle' all these applications together, into one application (and will later add more functionality to that). In it's most basic form, it would simply be one single Form with buttons, where each button opens the corresponding application.

I need to deploy an application that I have created. I have done this by creating a new setup and deployment project in VS 2008.
My question is- do I need to have these two separate projects or can I somehow combine them into one?
I have made my application to start automaticly when windows start (registry ../currentversion/run/appname + path). In this mode the application start minimized and an little icon appear in the notification icon area. With this icon you can maximize the app or exit it.If you exit the app and start it again using the Menu (Start/programs etc) than the application start in minimized mode (and in this case I would like to have it in normal mode) because the setting autostart is still true.Is there a way you can detect when the application start when windows startup using the above registry or when people click on an icon in the programs menu (or desktop)?
View 2 RepliesI am creating an application that is actually 4 seperate executables - UI is one and then 3 background services (console apps - no FORM's).I believe I can do one solution with 4 projects - would that be the recommended method? If a transmission class is common to all 4 would I make that a separate project or put it in one project and share that folder with the others? Can I have all 4 projects START when you click RUN?Does the OUTPUT window and other debug windows work with all 4 projects?Or is it better to make them 4 solutions for debugging purposes?
View 2 RepliesMy intentions are to add command line switching. I am trying to see if i could run my application in varoius ways i.e.
App.exe -S - Start the application in XX Mode
app.exe -T30 - Start application with 30 second delay
and that kinda switching.
The Projects List on my Start Page is not being populated with the Projects I open. It's empty.Does anyone know what could be the problem? I can see the entries being recorded in the Registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftVisualStudio8.0ProjectMRUList
But VS isn't reading them in for some reason.
I'm running Visual Studio 2005 Professional.
I am complete newbie to VB express. I have created a simple windows form that opens programs using menus and so on.Works great using the Process.Start on windows apps (word, excel, etc.) but I have some very old programs that run in DOS I am also trying to open that do not work when using the Process.Start method.
I am able to get the command prompt box to open up and in the title bar it shows the path of the .exe program I want to open but the actual program is not opening.

How do I diagnose this?I have an app that I am creating... it has worked fine up till now.Heres what changed from the last build:Took most of images and removed them from resx file and instead added them in folders set to content and copy if newer.Added a RichTextBox Added an XML reader (Imports Imports System.Xml & Imports System.Xml. Serialization)
then just code to load/parse an xml file - and load it into the RTB an color some tags I published it, uploaded it (ClickOnce)tried it on my pc.. worked fine.. updated/ran users are saying the app says "The Application wont start - contact vendor"How on earth do I diagnose what the issue is? any ideas? (I cant get to these peoples computers... i dont know them)EDIT: Seems that it works fine for Vista Users, but not for XP users...? (odd, im on XP and it works fine)Digging around i found an app called dependency walker. Its saying that the DWMAPI.DLL is missing.. seems to point to IE7 needing this on XP?So, if I am thinking right... if the XP users dont have IE7, then the XMLReader breaks it? maybe??
I am creating an application for learning purposes. I am using this: process.start("iexplore.exe"); That is working fine. However I would like to be able to tell when the page has been loaded all the way. I would like to know how to tell if the application is done processing or not, that is my main goal. If using the webbrowser control you can use the webbrowser documentcompleted event.

View 8 RepliesI'm using Process.Start to start an external command line application and using the StartInfo.Arguments method to send parameters to the application. I imagine I'll need to use a loop... but I can't figure out exactly how yet.I need to send anywhere from 1 - an infinite number of files names to this application. Each file has to be sent one after the other. So once the first one is done, I need to loop back around and past the second one.I can probably use the Directory.GetFiles method to get all of the files, but I don't know how to assign them.

I have a problem whereby I cannot debug a c# silverlight application project that is hosted from within a visual basic web application. I add breakpoints to the main App constructor and the symbols are loaded ok but my breakpoints are never hit. I have concluded that it is a vb/c# interop problem as to test i did the following.
Created a new c# web application project
Added a c# silverlight application
Added a new vb web application project
Added references to the silverlight project from both web apps
set a breakpoint in App.xaml.cs constructor
if i run the c# webapp the break points are hit whereas if i run the vb webapp they are not.

View 1 RepliesI have a windows forms application with one exe and several dlls(Class libraries) in a single solution. The application uses common data that is used across all the dlls. I would like to load the data when the application is starting up and use the loaded data at various points in the dlls so that I do not have to load the common data again and again. How can I share the data loaded in main EXE across the DLLs?

View 1 RepliesI am installing an app I built in VB, and am getting the error "Application validation did not succeed. Unable to continue." I have successfully built and installed this app previously. What I think caused the issue is I attached the .mdf file I have referenced in my application to my SQL Server. I then detached the database in SQL Server, opened my VB app and re-built the app. When I tried to install the app, I received the error. Attached are the details of the error message.

I'm using Process.Start method to launch another application from my application. Until today, there was no problem. But I have tested my application in a different OS, Windows XP (SP3), and my application didn't work right on that. I'm also using arguments to run that application. I guess for some reason my application couldn't send arguments to other application correctly under Windows XP. Maybe it is related to my code. But you should know, it works great on Windows 7.

I have a solution with two projects. The main project connects to the second project via a reference, and the reference path is local to my machine. It looks like it references the .exe file.So when I publish the main project (ClickOnce), i get the following error:
Application validation did not succeed. Unable to continue.In the log file, under Error Details, it says
System.Deployment.Application.InvalidDeploymentException (RefDefValidation)
- Reference in the manifest does not match the identity of the download assembly Project2.exe
- Source: System.Deployment
How can I include this second project? Should I publish it, then reference the published files? What do i reference? The .application file?Is there a way to just include this second project, so when I do publish the main project, the second one just goes along with it?
I have one doubt. I told yesterday that i am new for windows application. I am using web application. In our web application, we can use multiple files and what files we want to run that we give page start up options. But in windows application where is it? I am using two files in single application. I want to change default start up page.
