Hook For Process Start?
Feb 10, 2010Is there any way I can install a global hook or something else on the start of external process. WH_CBT hook, as it appears can only intercept events for processes that have windows, but what if I want to intercept the start/stop of a windowless application or a windows service? Is there any way to do it using .NET?Generally, I want my application to receive a notification of some process being launched knowing only an executable name.Presently I simply use a timer to iterate through running processes, but I wonder if there a better way to do it?

Apr 2, 2009I am writing an application which needs to allow the user to select and open document files as a new process, edit them, then when they've finished backup the changed files automatically. For example, start a .doc file within Word or a .xls file with Excel What I wanted to do was use process.start to run the application and store the ProcessID returned in an array so that when the process finished, I could check all the files that were using that application for changes.

View 2 RepliesHook Excel - The Process Excel.exe Doesn't Finish After Close Excel
Jul 20, 2010I need to access the current instance of MS Excel. To do that, I wrote the following code:
Imports Excel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel
Imports System.Diagnostics
Private _ExcelApp As Excel.Application
[Code].....
The code runs nice, but it has a problem: After the user close the Excel application (click button X - note: no other instance of Excel exists), if you open the Windows's task manager, its possible to see the process Excel.exe.
If I open and close the Excel application, there is no process Excel.exe, but if I run my code with the Excel application openned, after the user close the Excel application, the process Excel.exe isn't finished.
.net - Out Of Process COM Server Works Fine In The Unit Test Harness But Not In The Real Service?
Jun 1, 2011We have a WCF service hosted in IIS that currently calls a VB6 DLL to do part of its job. This works fine, but we can't deploy the service to a 64-bit target environment without configuring IIS to run it in a 32-bit worker process.I am currently investigating ways around that restriction. Porting the VB6 DLL to .NET is not possible for various reasons, so I created an ActiveX EXE wrapper around the DLL in VB6, so that the service can run in 64-bit and the VB6 parts in 32-bit.
When I tested the service I got this error:
Type: System.UnauthorizedAccessException
Message: Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {9AE7303B-D159-43F6-B1A5-52D297581820} failed due to the following error: 80070005.
After some Googling I found that this is due to either:
Calling an MS Office component
DCOM permissions not being configured
NTFS file permissions not allowing read/exec access to the IIS worker process identity (ASPNET in my environment)
Of these:
Definitely not applicable Also not applicable; I am not hosting the EXE in DCOM or COM+, just a simple COM out-of-process activation
This looks likely; however, I checked the permissions, and NTFS reports that the Users group (which ASPNET is a member of) does indeed have read/exec access to the file I tried calling the EXE from a unit test fixture, which is executed in my admin-level account rather than the IIS worker process account, and it worked fine, so the error is definitely something to do with permissions. I'm not sure what to do next.
UPDATE:The IIS virtual directory is configured for Anonymous+Windows access; the WCF service uses only Anonymous authentication, the Windows authentication is for the VS debugger. Task Manager reports that the aspnet_wp.exe process is definitely running in the ASPNET account.I explicitly granted Read and Execute access to the ASPNET and IUSR_<machine> accounts on all the COM exes and dlls involved. This made no difference.
I explicitly granted Local Launch and Local Activation access to the ASPNET and IUSR_<machine> accounts on the relevant interfaces in the DCOM configuration. This made no difference either.Keep trying to get this working somehow.Go the whole hog and host the EXE in COM+.Give up. Tell users that the WCF service must be configured to run in a 32-bit app pool on 64-bit Windows.
Get The Page Documents Counts For Documents Stored As Tif Files
Feb 2, 2010I've been asked to get the page counts for documents stored as tif files. What I have now is looping through our third party software to open them and then get the page count. I can't stop the image from flashing and it is very slow. Does anyone know of a way to loop through them quickly and can the page counts (one image can have many documents)?
View 5 RepliesVS 2005 Windows Services - Process Is Listed As A SYSTEM Process Rather Than A Process Under User Name
Jun 4, 2009I have written a windows service that is meant to launch a notepad when a specific action happens. The problem i have is that even though the service launches notepad, the actual notepad it self is NOT visible. I know that it has been launced because i can see the process in the task manager. By the way the process is listed as a SYSTEM process rather than a process under my user name (i believe that is because my process is a "LocalSystem" one).
View 4 RepliesAdd A Folder When Installing Programme
Nov 6, 2009When I test run my programme (F5) it automatically saves files in a folder that is within the test project.I'd like to create a folder that is created when the programme is first installed (My Documents or in within the programme folder). How do I do this? I also want to give it a specific name instead of a name being given to it automatically. I know how to create a folder and save files in it during the test runs when I press F5 (If directory.exists etc etc etc) but that is during the runtime - how do I make a folder already available that is created during installtion.

View 5 RepliesVista Animated Pictures On Programme?
Jan 23, 2010I've just finished the coding for latest programme I'm making for a buses company, now the coding is fine. But the actual design of the forms is quiet tacky and amateur looking.The object here is to try and make my application look as professional as possible, I've noticed that on Vista, whenever you let's say transfer a file or load up something, they always have that really cool graphic right at the top of something moving, or something really cool happening.
I heard that there's a pack somewhere that you can download of vista designs for loading, file transfer etc, but I don't actually know where to find it.Does anybody here know?, or how they work?, or that just animated GIF files, or are they actually coded into the forms?

May 13, 2011I am using VB Express 2008, on Windows XP Pro. I have written a programme which tests another programme which compares prices and terms from several vendors. This Bid Tabulation programme, compares prices and terms of up to 10 Bidders and 500 line items in mixed currencies.The testing programme, initially, would not work and I discovered that I needed to introduce a delay in order for it to run the Bid Tabulation programme. So my initial code, using the delay, was:

View 4 RepliesProgramme A Carbon Emission Calculator With Proxy Data?
Mar 31, 2012I am doing a Management Science project at Uni. I have to programme a carbon emission calculator using proxy values and some input variables.
Basically, 4 inputs: seize of ship in container capacity (categorized in 9 classes), distance, Fuel type used (2 types), speed (if known).
How can I match the input variables with the proxy data values? Lets say someone inputs 2300 as container ship seize, the programme needs to know which proxy value to use from all the different seize categories (as it could have been 5300 or 7450). A certain ship seize class has a number of proxies (atributes). For example power installed, design speed, av. container capacity. (Classes are ranges, i.e. from 1000 to 2000 containers = class 1, 2001-3000 = class 2 etc.)
The same principle applies with the other input variables except for distance. Speed only should be considered if it is known, otherwise the programme has to use proxy data as well.
In short, it is a calculator which, depending on some input variables, estimates carbon emissions based on proxy data. The problem I have: How do I let the programme know, if a certain ship category/speed is selected (inputted), which proxies the programme has to use. The rest is just a matter of adding/subtracting/multiplying/dividing the proxies and the input data to calculate the emissions.
Write A Programme Where A User Can Type In A 'string' Into A Textbox?
Feb 6, 2012I am attempting to write a programme where a user can type in a 'string' into a textbox. A data dictionary will contain specific keywords relating to a specific classification, where an algorithm can detect whether any of the keywords occur in the 'string'. Here are the processes that need to occur:
1) A data dictionary, that contains keywords relating to specific classes eg. (IT Issues, Printer, Software, Password).
2) An algorithm needs to compare the words in the Data Dictionary to that of the 'string' to detect any matches.
3) A rule set to determine what classification the 'string' needs to be classed as.
