Theme Manager - File Is Being Used By Another Process
Sep 6, 2009
I'm building a theme manager. Each theme contains and XML file to describe the theme and a couple of images. I load the themes with a custom control into a wrappanel. As a preview of the theme I use a custom control, that shows the first 3 images of the theme. I load the picture into the images as follows (codeblock 1). You can delete the theme by selecting it in the wrappanel and then press delete theme button. It will add the name of the theme to a list and will delete the theme when the app exists. But then the app will bring up an error message saying that the file is used by another process - which is the main window of the app that has been closed.
Dim imgsrc As New BitmapImage
imgsrc.BeginInit()
imgsrc.DecodePixelHeight = theme.Image1.Height
imgsrc.DecodePixelWidth = theme.Image1.Width
imgsrc.UriSource = New Uri(fi.Directory.FullName & "" & nodes.Item(i).ChildNodes.Item(0).InnerText)
imgsrc.EndInit()
theme.Image1.Source = imgsrc
1: Attached threads Rather then list all attached threads in a list view. I wanted total count.This is my own little work around.
Dim oThreads As ProcessThreadCollection = ProcessID.Threads Dim arryThreads As New List(Of Integer) For x As Integer = 0 To oThreads.Count - 1
[code]....
This there a direct call to get the total number? Adding to an array seems a tad silly.
2: Individual CPU Can't find it on MSDN. Any links that will go into detail on Application CPU and maybe even more detail on features on what i could add.
I have a theme called 'Zune' on my computer, and like the way it looks.Is there a way too, make the program use the 'Zune' theme..even if the computer itself is using the default xxxx theme?I can simulate it by doing the graphics, but to make the program border less, then to do the move code when they click on the image box...etc... makes it for tedious work.
If I could somehow make the program use the theme..
How would I Make a program that would detect running process in the taskmanger: Info on my program +Like I want it to load the process name's in a Rich textbox or label or textbox (if that's possible XD). + And I will Have a Button that once I see all the process and then the button1 will kill the processes I Pick.
In the code below, I open excel file, when I try to enter some values into excel cells, and close it afterwards. For some reasons excel process is still active in task manager. I am releasing objects, quiting application like for other excel files in my program, but in this specific example can't do this. The code below is written in Visual Studio 2010, windows 7.
Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop Public Class Form1 Public MainPath As String = System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory() Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click [Code] .....
When I go to Debug my program (F5), the program will load, until I click on the form with the main part of code in it, and then the program freezes, although it doesn't lock up because as soon as I press stop debugging/ task manager end process, it closes fine.
I will attach the zip of the program here. The form that it freezes on is "Black Ops". Edit Due to the forum not accepting my .Zip file (Invalid file type), I will upload it to MediaFire. Download link (445kb): Click Here
i dont no much about vb.net ..i am php developer i have just developed a mini application in vb.net i wanted to know how to hide our application from appearing in task manager...
When multithreading in VB, if you close the form while different threads are running, the process itself will not end. Is there a way I can force all threads to end, or end the process like in the Task Manager, when the form is closed?
My next question is how do i use a .msstyle file for the form theme/style? Preferably not using SkinSoft Visual Styler.net because this doesnt support some things like fixed single border. It also isnt free.
I have a function that will allow me to edit the manager property of a user here:
Public Shared Sub SetManagerProperty(ByVal de As DirectoryEntry, ByVal pName As String, ByVal pValue As String) 'First make sure the property value isnt "nothing"
[Code]....
But what if the manager is not in the Company OU? How can I edit this to search for him in the entire domain?
When I load my solution and compile it after first starting the IDE, everything works as expected. After changing source and recompiling, I get the following compile error:
Error 11 Unable to copy file "objDebugCAMDRS.Library.dll" to "binCAMDRS.Library.dll". The process cannot access the file 'binCAMDRS.Library.dll' because it is being used by another process. CAMDRS.Library.
After closing Visual Studio 2005 and reopening the solution I can compile again successfully. This is an old solution that has been fine for a long time. I just recently changed computers and reinstalled everything.I am running win XP Pro sp2, Visual Studio 2005 sp1.
My program writes to a .txt file (and this is the ONLY program that writes to it) in a thread (with lowest priority), but every now and then it gets an error "The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file" when it executes this code: swLog.WriteLine(sPacket).Other program reads from the file, not write to it, why do I get this error, and how can I get around it, or what shall I do when I get this error since I can't write to the file ?
The process cannot access the file 'C:UsersdavidDesktopTest Folderdavid 2.xml' because it is being used by another process.
how do i end the prosess after I create the file? Or am I creating it in the wrong manner.The underlined line is where the error ocures.
Public Sub AddDTData(ByVal value1 As String, ByVal value2 As String, ByVal filename As String) dtUser.Rows.Add(value1, value2, Now.Date) If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists(filename) Then
I try to open a text file and write in some text, when i run the program it says the following error:The process cannot access the file 'D:VB projectsCategory_Characteristics.txt' because it is being used by another process.
THe code is as follows and the error hits in line :
Dim objWriter As New System.IO.StreamWriter(FILE_NAME) ----------------------------------------- Dim FILE_NAME As String = "D:VB projectsCategory_Characteristics.txt"
How can i access a file through FileStream which is being used by a window service. Actually i am trying to access a file which is also being used by our window service. I need to read data from this file. I am using below code but also getting following error:
Code: Dim fs1 As IO.FileStream = New IO.FileStream(psPath, IO.FileMode.Open, IO.FileAccess.Read, IO.FileShare.Read) Dim sr As IO.StreamReader = New IO.StreamReader(fs1) sData = sr.ReadToEnd
Error: The process cannot access the file 'FILENAME' because it is being used by another process.
I tried changing FileShare.Read parameter to FileShare.None but it didn't work out. I also read below post which says that it is not possible but i think there is a way to read it like if you open a file through Firefox but still window service is accessing it.
I am working with saving and deleting images. What i really want to do is check and see if an image exists in the destination folder and if it does automatically overwrite it. i couldnt figure that out so i figured i would look to see if the file was there if it is Delete it then write the new file..The issue is i keep getting this error.The process cannot access the file "FileName" because it is being used by another process.

I'm trying to use the demo that is on the devexpress website to build a folder structure that people can upload files to and manage within a web interface.
[URL]
I have got the control to work, however, when I upload a file to via the web interface, the control doesn't stream the whole file up to the server, but just creates a new file but with no content. Is there something that I can do to create the file.I didn't have access to the FileManagerHelper Class, but googled around and found on on the devexpress forum.Is there an updated version of this file?
I have a vb.net 2008 desktop application to make changes to it. Since the production database will be changing within a month, I know that i need to change the .net remoing.
1.I change the configuration manager file (app.config) in debug mode to point to the 'new' test database, however the changes are not pick up. The application is still pointing to the current database. Thus can you tell when what kind of files.I need to change so that this application picks up the 'test' data base?
2. After I have tested the changes that need to be made, I will need to deploy the changes. Thus i am assuming that I will need to do something different so I can put the application changes into production. Thus, can you tell what kind of extra dlls,exe, xml, and other files I will need to include in the deployment package? Is there anything else I need to do in the deployment package? This application uses .net remoting to have the database connect to the various proejct files in the entire solution file.
I am wondering how you would go about coding a VB Project with a File Dialog box or something to that affect that could be used to have users select programs that are already on their desktop and move the icons and the program names into my application. I am sort of going for a File Program Popup Box that prompts the users to check off certain programs they want to add to my VB Application or to show a list or programs on their desktop. Is there anyway to complete this task with Visual Basic?
Is the FTM available for .net users to use on our web solutions or sites?I have some large install files on my site that the regular download will quit in the middle.the ftm at least allows for interruptions.I tried the FTP route, but turns out most users out there have no idea what ftp is. I saw a library that eluded to IDownloadManager, but I wasn't sure if this was the same thing as the ftm.
