VS 2008 - Freeing Up System Resources
Feb 24, 2010
I'm getting a collection of processes, adding them to a ListView, and deleting them from it when needed. All of this is done in a timer. The problem, is that after a while, the app freezes. I think this is because I'm not disposing any variables.
Here's my
VB.NET
Private _processes As New List(Of String)()
Dim killedProcs As New List(Of String)(_processes)
Dim processes As Process() = System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcesses()
For Each proc As Process In processes
[Code] ....
I tried disposing of my process list, but the IDE wouldn't let me. That's the only thing I thought would need disposing since it is what hold all of the processes.

In a windows forms application I am attempting to read a file from a share into a filestream.I then start impersonating and write the stream to another share that only my impersonation account has access to.This works fine for small files. But if I attempt this on a 90 meg file I recieve a "Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service" error on the following line:
System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes(myLocation,MyByteArray)
Full Example:
Dim ImageData As Byte() = Nothing
Dim fsAttachment As IO.FileStream = Nothing[code].....

ive come back to working on this and have got 3 large drag/drop ares of my project done, but im having a little trouble on the last part, which is freeing the files back up.If i drag/drop for instance a zip into my app and it extracts then finishes, in explorer im unable to delete the zip whilst my app is still running, the file in use error come sup. So how do i go about releasing the resources after the drag/drop events done

I was wondering if there was a way to find out how much memory a data structure too up. So say I declared a list of strings.
Dim theRN As New Dictionary(Of String, Integer)
Say it had 25 elements in it. How to find out how much memory those 25 elements are costing me?

I need to generate a class at runtime similar to System.Resources where you can add a resource eg 'picture.bmp' and it immediatelly is accessible as 'System.Resources.picture.bmp'. I presume I need to generate XLM or/and XLSD at design time and then deserialise at runtime but I cant find a reference on how to do this. Specially without knowing the generic class in advance (as 'System.Resources' doesnt know all the resources in advance).

I have a program made in VB that on a button click extracts a exe file from its resources to the HDD then runs the program and deletes it after it closes. I first used the desktop to extract the file to, but seeing as I need to use this program on several computers the account names will be different so this is of no use. I've tried using C: but access is denied.

I previously wrote a thread asking how to change a picture according to button movement in which i loaded the pictures from my C: drive. Well i have added the image files into my resources in my project and i was wondering if i could get more incite on loading the picture from the resuorces rather then the C: drive.

I am not sure of the proper, or best, way to use Settings and Resources. For now I use the default project wide My.Settings and My.Resources. I have a class that I would like to reuse in other projects, so adding project wide settings or resources in each project doesn't sound proper, nor does creating constants and variables within the class itself.I'm guessing there is a way to give a class its own resource file, and maybe even settings file, but I'm not sure how to do it. I tried adding a resource file with the same name (but with .resx extension) and I got a weird error saying I was trying to edit a resource that is apart of another project. I continued, but it didn't seem to be what I wanted and I wasn't sure how to access that new resource.

Ok, here's my problem. I already understand referencing a image using My.Resources.(Image name), But this won't work for my current situation, because the image name is in a string so I can't Hard-Code it into the program. IE. The file name is found by doing the statement:Filename = "_" + poke + "_"
Where poke is as string that contains the name of the file. The normal way to call this would be to use My.Resources._(contents of poke)_ but that doesn't work since i can't just inject the contents of poke into the line without making the entire thing a string, and by making it a string that command doesn't work normally.
I just can't seem to find a guide anywhere that talks about this, and I've been stuck on this for quite some time now. I've been able to reference XML's that are included the same way as the images using My.Resources.Resourcemanager.Geobject but this doesn't seem to work for the Images, and I haven't found any other way.

I have the 'resources' folder in my project and it contains a text file called dictionary.txt, which i refer to in my code as My.Resources.dictionary.Split(New String() {Environment.NewLine}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)This works perfectly.
I then added a second text file called definition.txt, but when i refer to My.Resources.definition.Split(New String() {Environment.NewLine}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)This gives me an error 'Definition is not a a member of 'Resources'

I have a utility that is a simple exe that is not installed compiled with VS2005 and works well. But when I upgraded to VS2008 the utility can no longer locate files in the active system folder. I have UAC turned off and am logged in as the Administrator and it still can not locate a file that I can see in Windows Explorer. The file I am looking for is PakMgr.exe.
