VS 2008 How To Call C-Dll With Char Signature
May 22, 2012
I tried the search (forum / google) before, but unfortunately I found no solution. From VB.NET I have to call a very old c-dll, the methods have signatures like this:[code]In VB I tried the method-declaration with IntPtr, FixedLengthString, Char(), Byte() and so on, but with no success. I now, that char* declarations can be handled with the Stringbuilder, but that seem not to work in this case, as the declaration is a char[256] and no pointer.So how to declare the c-method above to be used in VB.NET?

I'm planning on using the Smart Device Framework 2.3 to use the signature control panel in a Windows Mobile 5 application using the compact framework 3.5.
The control has the option to save the signature as either a byte array of points, or as a bitmap. Now seeing as I want to store the signature in a sql compact database, I guess the byte array is going to be better. The trouble is, I'm not sure how to render that in a full WinForms application after I've transferred it back to the desktop.
I need to show the signature on a report, so it would need to be an image I could link/embed into the report.

'A call to PInvoke function 'WindowsApplication1!WindowsApplication1.Form1::GetAsyncKeyState' has unbalanced the stack. This is likely because the managed PInvoke signature does not match the unmanaged target signature.

Ok, I have an Ambir Signature Pad, and i just want to get the signature as an image (lol just).Well, I was wondering if there is a way to 'connect' to the device via usb and treat it (the pencil) as a mouse and get the coord's when they drag.

I have written my own function, which in C would be declared like this, using standard Win32 calling conventions:int Thing( char * command, char * buffer, int * BufSize);I have the following amount of VB figured out, which should import the dll and call this function, wrapping it up to make it easy to call Thing("CommandHere",GetDataBackHere).UPDATE:This code is now a working solution, as shown here:
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Imports System
Imports System.Text
[Code]...
Updates: I got the code to build by following the help received here, and then I had forgot the As Return Type (which got me a MarshalDirectiveException PInvokeRestriction). Then I had an assertion failure inside my DLL, which lead to an SEHException. Once fixed, this works BEAUTIFULLY. There are newsgroups where people are saying this can not be done, that VB only loads managed dll assemblies (which I guess is the normal thing most VB users are used to).

I have a form with 12 text boxes. I'm trying to get the data from those text boxes to "save", and when that form is opened again have the data be inserted back. This form has different time slots so I need to be able to have it save and repopulate based on what time slot I am clicking on. I was going to have it read the data by splitting it with commas, then inserting them back into the correct fields but it's not working. I had it write the results to a text file and they get written correctly and inserted back, but the problem with that is it only reads that text file so every time slot I open up gets the same data.
Below is code I used to get the data when the Save button is clicked. [Code]. Problem is I get an error saying "Char values cannot be converted to Integers" on the first line, the (","c) part.

I've been trying to figure this out for hours now, and I've given up on trying to solve it myself. Basically what I need to do, is convert a "double octet" binary string, such as "11010011 01011101", into a byte or char type if possible.I use the following code to convert my Unicode text into binary:
Private Function ByteToStr(ByVal bt() As Byte) As String
Dim st As New StringBuilder
For Each byt As Byte In bt
[code]....
But that gives me weird results. The "Convert.FromBase64String" obviously isn't what I'm after. Any help would be great. If I can convert the "binary string" into a bytes or chars I can get it into a string.

I've tried everything here, but the Amazon Load Balancer API just will not accept my signature.
Whatever I try, I get a "403 SignatureDoesNotMatch" response. I'm probably missing something obvious, but having spent hours trying to figure out what that is, I'm at the end of my tether.
Here's my code:

for the past >8 years i was doing VB / VB.Net work now I'm jumping into C# world, so far it's very easy only thing that I find difficult is the fact that the signature of every events on object are not automatically created for me.I'm used to select the object name in the left dropdown in the code view and then the event that I want in the right dropdown.is there something similar to that in C#? if yes where can i find it, I really wish I don't have to write them by hand...

I try to run my Authenticode signed app on a clean Vista PC (not internet connection available ever). I have a look in Internet Explorer if the root certificate (Trustcenter) is there, and it is not. I get the message that the reference could not be resolved, and when I click file properties and have a look at the certificate, it says "The certificate for the signature could not be confirmed". Is that a normal behaviour? I mean does the computer need to have the root certificate from Trustcenter installed?
