I have encountered on my project that was due in 2 days ago. I have created a form that will not display correctly. Here is the assignment and what I need to accomplish. Major issue the display bill box.
[Code]...
I have no idea what is going on here but it is strange to say the least.I created a new solution in VS2008Pro under windows 7 This solution has 2 projects one for the pc and one for a CE based device.There is one class module which is shared between the 2 projects.In VS2005 under xp this same basic project worked fine but here I am seeing error messages that appear out of no where.
Example the CE portion flags 3 lines initially 1 related to a file i.o function and 2 others related to socket methods. All three of these were supported in VS2005 using framework 2.0 which is the same framework I am using here. This is just the tip of the ice berg however.If I attempt to run the code it runs fine for the pc client and of course not for the CE device. If I make any kind of change, add a line, comment a line or just add a comment I get lots more errors with odd messages that are not even valid.
In one case after I saved it jumped from 3 errors to 30, in another case to 50 and yet another to 144 errors yet the only errors that were present were the original 3 that were flagged.The ide threw errors like Try Catch must end with matching End Try.Get no longer supported ' apparently referring to the binary file get but here it is used as the get portion of the property.Get must end with matching end get.It also started complaining about functions and data types.For example saying "an is not declared" pointing to the word Boolean Or telling me my functions are not declared point to only 1/2 of the function name.
I do not see any errors in the code and it reports no errors in VS2005 under XP.As a test I tryed adding a new property to the project after it was telling me there were 144 errors. I allowed the ide to do most of the work and when I hit enter the errors went back to 3. Then I saved the project and the errors went to 105 pointing first at the new property just created.
How can create license for my Class library projects(dlls) or win apps?
View 2 Repliesi have to make a project for my programming class in VB and this is basically what i want to do in pseudocode form
1. Display initial form
2. Choose from one of two to four choices (my discretion) via Button or radio, whichever is easier
3. once you click next, or the choice button, display next form depending on which choice and close the old form.
currently im doing this industrial proj for my sch final year project
its about ZigBee....i need to ask if anyone here knows how zigbee works..if not its very hard for me to explain by typingg it all out..im focusing on the AT Remote COmmand and im using the X-CTU software to ttest out the ports..this is the thoery part
for the programming part which is the main thing im suppose to produce....i gotta drag a serial port to the apps UI...create a class library using VS 2008 in vb to make the software become flexible..in the sense whereby cos currently i got a master port and a remote port...i need to calculate the hexadecimals for my remote port to control the mode of the remote port for example on and off..
if i do purely hard coding... this is the code i came out wid Dim onBuff () As Byte = (&H7E, &H0...so on and so forth)
port.Open()
port.Write(onBuff, 0, onBuff.Length)
Port.Close()
the result i get is the remote port will on...subsequently...to off it..i got to calcute the 'off' hexadecimals..
however 1 ZigBee chip has its own hexadecimals and i can connect tons of remote port...so now i cant hard code the hexa..i got to find a way to use vb to create a class library so that instead of fixed hexa i can make it flexible
i know its very hard to understand thru typing...cos best is gotta deomstrate..apparently its very hard to do it here..so ya..thats why its best if got ppl here who knos abt ZigBee
If I save some data as a class and I serialize it all done in vb.net. What happen if someone with another language like PHP whats to use that data will be that possible directly?
View 2 RepliesSay I have a Framework 4.0 project that is referencing a class library targeting 3.5. The project will simply not build. It won't give me any valid error message it will just act as though the reference does not exist.
Projects that were working like this in Visual Studio 2008 are no longer working in 2010. Took me forever to figure out what there error is. If I remove the project reference and add it back the intellisense lights up and you can tell a variable referenced in the class library is found. But as soon as you build the project everything is lost. My using statements get underlined, references to the variable all turn grey and project fails to build saying the class cannot be found. Once I make the class library 4.0 as well everything builds. I get the same issue between 4.0 client profile and 4.0 as well.
I have a map editor program for the rpg game engine I made and am trying to add an undo option into it. The map is stored in a class so i made a array of the class then added this code for when the map is changed [Code] but when i do this all the maps in the array get changed when the player edits the map.

I would like not just to close the form, but actually to destroy its instance in order to dispose memory. I tried what would seemed to be to me the more direct and obvious way to do that (see below), but unfortunatelly VB syntax checker doesn't allow me to do that:[code]

View 3 RepliesI'm writing a GUI-based app in VB.net that talks to a LambdaMOO server via telnet, sends commands to display the object hierarchy, then parses the output and creates a visual representation of the object hierarchy.So my question is: is there some kind of "telnet client" class for .NET to simplify the sending and receiving of data, or do I have to write my own using the socket API?
View 7 RepliesI have a class which inherits a picturebox and has an image, it has a few properties etc. In one project i have a lot of these classes with their individual properties set. I would like to be able to copy all of them and their properties into another project for various reasons. But, even though I have an identical class set up and built in the new project, i cannot paste between the two projects.(.net 3.5)
View 9 RepliesSlightly odd problem I'm having at the moment, vb.net 2008 was working fine for me until today when it has decided it doesn't want to open any of my projects/solutions anymore. When I click them in recent projects or even navigate to them and try to open them the program attempts to load them and then just stops without returning any error.

View 2 RepliesAs far as I know , it is possible to combine projects into a solution . So , lets say we have 3 projects . Each project has a starting form , lets call them SF1 , SF2 and SF3 .What I would like to ask you is how can I write code in order to have both the solution and the partial projects , working . You see , the solution (which as far as I know will also be accompanied by a new project) has to have a starting form ; lets call it SF0 .A) First of all I'd like to know how can I call a partial project from the solution itself .B) What code do I have to write in the partial projects in order to keep them running correctly when they are separate (that is not part of the solution) . I am asking this question too , because as I guess , there has to be code in SF1 , SF2 and SF3 (into buttons) that lead back to SF0 , but
View 3 RepliesMaybe I'm just searching around for the wrong information, but are there any good tutorials on Deployment or setup projects? I can make the little auto wizard that VS2008 makes for you, but my app needs more custom options. For instance my app will set up SQLserver 2008 and create the tables in it, but I can't find any useful info about how to make a custom setup/msi app.
View 1 RepliesIn Netbeans you can have multiple projects open at once. You just click the side bar, click the project, and can jump between them. It's very convenient for when I want to look at some code I wrote on a previous project and apply it to my current one
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 want to use a form in two project.
I have developed it in one project, I now want to make it available to another project.
I have removed it from the project and moved the .vb & *.resx files to a directory for common modules.
I then go into my project select Add Existing item, select the .vb project and say Add as Link.
But now my form is missing - I just have the code.
I have two classes MyPanel & MyForm. MyForm was first, MyPanel second. It says they should be the other way round. When I swap them I get the message "to add componets to your class, drag them from the toolbox...."
I've been doing some lite coding over the last couple years so I'm no where near where a lot of you already are. So my code tends to be organized in the standard beginners format... one project per solution with one executable (*.dll or *.exe). So I have a bit of a "best-practices" question for you... Why use multiple projects in one solution?

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?

View 4 RepliesI created a visual basic express edition project and when completed pressed Save All. Then proceded to work on another version and saved that one as well, Now the project cannot find the original version which is the only working one. I have all of the projects backec up but they will not load. Where do I have to move the files so Visual basic can find them?
View 1 RepliesI'm sick of my EXE files only looking decent in one view in explorer (ie List or Tiles etc) because I can only figure out how to specify one icon file for my projects so it has to be a specific size and if its too big it looks rubbish at smaller sizes in explorer, and vice versa if its too small. So how can I embed more than one icon file and make it automatically select the correct one to display in explorer depending on the view? I believe you can store more than one icon in an ICO file, so do you have to just combine the various size icons into one ICO and then explorer will automatically select the correct sized on? Or is it something you have to do within the VB project?
View 7 RepliesJust got a little quirk with VS2008 on 1 solution.When i press F5 to debug my solution builds the current project but then insists on building all my setup projects...
This only occurs on 1 of my solutions and it has 20 projects within it.
I've checked startup projects and it has no dependancies and is set to selected project.
