VS 2008 [RESOLVED] System.Net.Dns.GetHostAddresses

Apr 9, 2010

Yesterday s**ked, and today ain't (sic) looking better. I have an application I have been working on and it can be slow to start when my ISP is down because of DNS. My ISP was down for 3 hours yesterday, so I didn't think much about this piece of code I had added, until I found that it is always slow to start. This code is supposed to return your IP address and my reading of the link suggests that should be immediate, but it isn't, at least on my machine.Oh, and yesterday before the internet went down, I upgraded (oymoron) to XP SP3, and have had other problems.So my questions / request:

1. Am I doing this right?

2. If you run this on your machine does it take 39 seconds to return your IP address? [code]

One last note. If I resolve a name all is well.

VS 2008 [RESOLVED] ListView Changes Mid Code?

This one is causing me a lot of frustration, and as far as I can see, it should work. What I have is a form with 9 ListViews (ListView1 through 9), and I want to add items to them.The issue is, I have a routine that sets which ListView to use. Say I have set it for ListView4, it works initially on the first file, but after one line of code. it reverts back to ListView1 for the remaining files.

VS 2008 - FTP Exception - The Remote Name Could Not Be Resolved: 'unkn'

Jul 12, 2010

I have another problem:

Sub download()
Try
GetPass()
GetUser()
GetPath()
[CODE]...

Bolded line makes an exception: The remote name could not be resolved: 'unkn' I guess it has to do something with threading, and path doesnt generate correctly username, password, and pth are generated from objects in another form, so i did it like this: Dim newfrm As Form1

And then acces the objects that hold user, pass... like: newfrm.textbox1.text

So, why do i get this exception then if im doing it the right way, and how do i get this to work?

VS 2008 [RESOLVED] Threads And Problem With Form

May 26, 2009

Hi

I have a thread that it calling many processes.

While the processes are executed (spends some seconds or minutes in completing all the tasks) I show form "Please wait to complete all tasks".

But one of these processes I have to show a form because the user has to choose a few data. But the problem is that this form is showed minimized.

Already I have tried to show it maximized and to bring it to the front but it does not do it.

how I can show this form to front and maximized?

My actual code is:




f= New frmLPlantillas
f.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized
f.BringToFront()
If f.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
value1= f.xxxx
value2= f.zzzzz
value3= f.aaaa
value4= f.bbbbbb
Else
Return False
Exit Function
End If

Thanks in advance.

[RESOLVED] Application For 64 Bit Computer?

Apr 2, 2009

I wrote a small application for a friend that opens a Excel sheet, get's some data from it and stores that data into a file. I compiled it for AnyCPU (I also did a compile just for his 64 bit machine, same result).Here is the problem:He is able to run the program on a 32 bit computer without any problem, it just won't work on his 64 bit computer.Here is the error he is getting App failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135)

Is this my problem or could this be his problem? As far as I can tell I'm all up to date with VS2008.Is there somewhere I can look specifically what the latest build is for VS2008? I am using VB2008.

Resolved Stumped Regex Works In C# But Not VB?

Jan 12, 2010

I'm working through the Pro ASP.NET MVC Framework book by Apress (which is great, btw) and it's in C# although we mostly work in VB so I'm "translating" the examples along the way. So far so good but I ran into something that has thrown me.Long story short we need to validate that the string the user gave us as an email address. This returns true in C#:

Console.WriteLine(System.Text.RegularExpressions.R egex.IsMatch("Me@me.com", ".+\@.+\..+"));

But this returns false in VB:Console.WriteLine(System.Text.RegularExpressions.R egex.IsMatch("Me@me.com", ".+\@.+\..+"))

[RESOLVED] Simple 3D Graphics With DirectX

Jun 6, 2010

I'm just having some difficulty with nitpicky details. To give you a gauge of the level of programming I'm at I'll just tell you about some of the work I've done. Of course, you can skip down to the last paragraph if you don't have the time.I've created an emulator for a programming language I call "Blue Code". It's kinda a spoof on Redcode, which you may have read about before. You load programs which use simple commands like add, divide, copy, jump, split (like making a new thread), etc. You can load multiple programs in and each instruction sits on a line of a circular memory. Then each program takes turns trying to get the other to run an illegal function, at which time it looses. I think it's quite a bit better than Redcode actually.I also wrote a program a couple years back (when I was 13?) that draws fractal trees, it's quite fun.

So, I have a pretty good grasp on VB, but recently I got into 3D graphics using the Direct3D library. Unfortunately, the function I'm using to save meshes is not working. I know the rest of my program works just dandy because I've loaded quite a few sample meshes. Now, I've come to the conclusion that my saving code is irreparably broken, so I won't even show it to you. What I need is somebody to write an outline of what I need in a saving function, or, better yet, actually write a saving function which I can customize to my purposes. The parameters are, a somewhat unconventional List(of List(of CustomVertex.PositionNormalTextured)), List(of Material), and List(of String). List of lists includes a bunch of lists of vertices I wish to use, where each list represents a subroutine. The list of strings and list of materials represent texture file names and surface materials respectively.

Resolved Normalize Path With Length More Than 260 Chars?

Feb 8, 2010

My issue is to combine two paths which one or both of them may contain double dots. I used Path.Combine(string, string) and the returned string is still a long path as a result of concatenating these two paths. Single or double dots are not eliminated.

So, I tried to use Path.GetFullPath(string) method with the concatenated path as the argument.PathTooLongException is thrown because this path has more than 260 characters. However, if this path is normalized, it won't exceed the maximum characters for a file path.
