Using VS 2008, I run into problems with many pacakages because when I make changes and press the green arrow key to compile and run, it does not always recompile, so sometimes I run the former executable, even though I made changes to it.Anybody came accross that problem? It is very annoying. The only way that I can make sure VB recompiles my program after a change, is to manually delete the executable in bin/debug before running it, otherwise I keep on seeing bugs in my program that I just fixed.Usually if I recreate my package from scratch, the problem disappears for a while, so I suspect that the problem is caused by a setting that changes by itself in my package, but I have no proof of that.
I am creating a program that will be sold as a subscription. I am trying to decide how to prevent users from passing the program to others without purchasing it. I was thinking that on the very first run, the program could pull the MAC address from the computer it is run on, and create a constant at run time. This constant is then hard wired into the program and is used for comparison every time the program is run thereafter. If the MAC address do not match, it is on a different computer.
How do I recompile my .exe to include a globally declared constant used for comparison? And how do I use this variable throughout my program?Or is there a simpler way to create my program to require Key Codes for renewal once per year?
I just recompiled an app that I have been using for some time after upgrading a component. I am getting a deep down error. The debugger does not highlight anything in my code. [code]...
I am relatively new to this framework thing and we used VB2002 and wrote a program with framework 1.0. Now we need to run the program in Vista, .Net 1.0 is not compatible (I think) and needed to be changed to .Net 1.1. How do we recompile the program to framework 1.1 in VB2002?
I've been giving the task to make some changes and recompile a 2005 vb project. I've asked for the .vbproj file and I've been given two files the .sln and an .suo file. And the email said to "You'll need to download and install the Microsoft Web Deployment Project add-in for Visual Studio 2005 . Here is the link for the download[URL].. I've never used ms web deployment project before. is this all I really need? will this create the .vbproj file for me?
I've recently reorganized some files on my current project and renamed the namespaces. Now whenever I try to reference a method from an object that I've instantiated I get told by the debugger that I need to recompile any assemblies that reference that method.
I'm using vb.net and the my.settings interface. I don't fully understand how to properly modify the applications configuration after deployment without having to recompile (click once). I've tried going into the app files and modifying it there but it doesn't seem to change in program. I'm just trying to find a good way to handle settings and My.Settings.
I was thinking of an efficient way to add quarantining abilities to my antivirus application. I was thinking, which way is better: to copy the file into a specified directory and change its extension to none ("*. "). Either that or maybe I can save the file's binary code in an XML database. Which way s better?However, I have no idea how I will recompile the binary code once the user wants restore the file.

When the button is pressed, it all works and the following files are created: yahoo.dll and yahoo.pdb My question is this: What is the code to load the already compiled yahoo files to execute the code again, without having to recompile the code?

I have a program in vb express 2008 which I would like to publish in a little more professional manner than provided in the standard vb express package. I would at least like to include a "Terms of Use" document the user must agree to before installing the program. I have dovnloaded and installed web developer, c# and vs 2008. Do any of these include a professional installer? If not are there any free installer packages available? I am 72 and live on a limited budget so I cannot aford an expensive package for one program.
I am trying to launch a program using System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:Program FilesFrets on FireFretsOnFire.exe") but the program always fails - the program generates an error log - so its obviously trying to start - ive included the log text but i doubt it will be useful.
Traceback (most recent call last): File "FretsOnFire.py", line 45, in <module> File "GameEngine.pyo", line 23, in <module>
Yet it runs fine when double clicked? why i can launch it from explorer but not from my code
Im trying to see if you can make a GUI that can edit the Source code of your progam and then building it as an .exe..Say you have a login program and you wanted to change the password, All you do is go to the "Edit My Account" and go to password and then enter your old password and in the next textbox your new password.Then you would click save and it will ask for a directory and save it as .exe. And when you would start your newly compiled program you can used the program you just entered in.

VB.net doesn't agree often with Relative File Paths. I made this thread for others opinions on why VB.net does this, and if there's a different solution rather than using Application.StartupPath(), because this is not the first time it's plagued me, and I go every time it happens.

I have a simple program that collects information from a database then sends the information to a .dll, which performs some calculations. I have figured out how to build and publish my application, but I'm not sure how to include the .dll. I'd like to put the .dll is a common folder (i.e. system32) when I install the program on a PC.
