In the exam paper, student have to check the checkboxes [usercontrol does not work] whether the question is correct or wrong.Now as I have hundreds of questions, I cannot write the same code again and again with the IF conditions, is there anyway to make it a function or something then call it whenever is needed.As well as I wanted the marks to be added when a student submits the paper.

I'm currently working with a client's VB.Net code, which was developed for them by a small development shop a few years ago and which they purchased and have been maintaining and uprgrading since. This client's primary developer is out on indefinite (likely permanent) medical leave and I'm now filling in until they bring in a full timer (as I'm a contractor here). My current task is to add some functionality to a the VB.Net code they purchased. I'm finding practices and techniques in the code that absolutely baffle me and can't make the code do what I want. I'm starting to wonder if it's me and was hoping to get some thoughts on the code I've encountered.
For example: Setting a variable to accept the result of a function by calling the function with many parameters, clearing the parameters in the function, setting them to some value, calling another function with those new values, then never using the values returned by the functions. I'll add a code snippet in the first comment since this is already getting long.
I have a function where I am performing a lot number of database operations inside a Sub. The operation when called directly like:ExecProcess()
takes about 11 seconds to run.However, if I create a Delegate, and call the sub using BeginInvoke(), the very same process takes over 40 seconds to execute.Here's the threaded code:
Protected del As ProcessDelegate
Protected Delegate Sub ProcessDelegate()
del = New ProcessDelegate(AddressOf SELocal.ExecJob)
Dim cb As New AsyncCallback(AddressOf Me.ExecJobComplete)
del.BeginInvoke(cb, del)
Anyone know what may cause a function to take longer inside a new thread, rather than calling directly?

I need to execute a stored function in oracle or sql through vb.net. I created a command object. Depending on the database type(oracle or SQL) i am preparing the Command text as Select functionName(?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?) from dual; (For Oracle) Adding the parameter values of the function. Now performing the ExecuteScalar which is not working saying invalid parameter. This works with ODBC connection string. But ODBC doesn't with 64bit. My Requirement: Code should execute a user defined stored procedure by taking the values at runtime.
View 1 RepliesIn a Windows Form project (using VB Express 10), is there a way to use a second command line arg (first one is in a module1 for start-up that checks another command line, and if correct, runs app)? This second command line would be used to close the open app (including all forms)? (I already have set up a Module1 to recieve a command line to run the app. This would be a second command to close the running app.)
I am opening the WF app using another app (created in a different software) that can pass command lines. So, if in that other app, I send "close" as a command line arg, how do I set up the WF app to receive this specific "close" command and perform Application.Exit()?
As a beginner using VB, not sure where it would go, how to declare, etc.
I have used the PInvoke Signature Toolkit to create VB.NET function definitions for three fairly simple C functions contained in an external DLL. The problem is that two of the parameters are structures so pointers need to be sent and one structure (fileview) is undefined.
OpenFileView(filename, &fileview_ptr)
ReadFileInfo(fileview_ptr, &fileinfo_ptr)
The structure of fileinfo is defined so I can create a structure definition in VB.NET and create an IntPtr to that structure with Marshall.AllocHGlobal. And then I can use Marshall.StructureToPtr to copy the data and do the inverse when the data is returned.

I'm having some problems calling a C function from a DLL. The function is returning -101 which translates as a "bad parameter". The values I am passing have been returned from another, successful function call, so my current assumption is that I've built the structure incorrectly.The function definition is:
int sm_switch_channel_input(struct sm_switch_channel_parms *switchp)
Parameters
*switchp (a structure of the following type):
typedef struct sm_switch_channel_parms {

in a DLL that takes a pointer to a structure as a parameter.The C and VB code is as follows.Am I passing the structure in calling the DLL correctly? I am asking because the API call returns a valid error code indicating error opening the com port specified. I tried all valid ports (com1 on a Vista 32 machine with a USB-Serial device and com1 defined in device mgr, com1 and com2 on a desktop with winxp and 2 real serial ports).I dont have the code for the DLL and cannot debug into the DLL code.
C code

I'm sure this is a pretty simple question but I can't seem to find the answer on Google. Say I've got a function that does some stuff and returns a string. I can assign its return value to a variable:
Dim result As String = MyFunction()
But sometimes I want to perform the actions within the function but I don't care about the return value. I know I can simply call the function from code.
Sub Main()
' Code
MyFunction()
' More Code
End Sub
This works and does exactly what I need it to. My question is - are there any issues or pitfalls in doing this? Particularly I want to make sure I'm not introducing any performance or memory leak issues.
The function is something like this: "function recieveFindPlayerResponse(displayString)"Now, how can I call it. I was trying this:Call AxShockwaveFlash1.CallFunction("_root.recieveFindPlayerResponse(displayString)")And before I had this, I had a Call function which defines displayString. (Works, as I've tested it before, and no error is given to this.)Now, how can I call a function like the above?
And example of what the code looks like from ******* swf decompiler is:
function recieveFindPlayerResponse(displayString)

I've designed a Windows Service in Visual Basic 2005 that needs to call some functions from a DLL written in Delphi 5. If I try to add this DLL as a reference, I get this error:
"A reference to 'C:ProjectsServiceProMDPUpdateServiceMessageStubApplicationSPHost.dll' could not be added. Please make sure that the file is accessible, and that it is a valid assembly or COM component."
I assume that it is just not possible to add this DLL as a reference to my VB2005 project, since the DLL was written in an old version of Delphi, correct? This isn't a big deal, as I can just use the DllImport function from System.Runtime.InteropServices, but if it is possible, adding it as a reference would be preferred.
My other question is, how would you be able to call a function from the DLL using DllImport, if the function you are trying to call takes a Delphi record data type as a parameter (if this is possible)? If possible, would I need to pass each field in the record separately or would I be able to define a structure in my VB app that mirrors the record definition in the Delphi DLL and pass that? Or, would it be best if I just created another function in the Delphi DLL that took various string/integer/boolean/etc. parameters that I could call from VB that would then call the original function in Delphi? I tried searching the internet for this specific question, but I couldn't find anything that looked useful.

x = XMLserialization.XMLserializeLDAPconfig.DeserializeFromXML(GetType(x))()

I'm having trouble accessing a DLL function that uses a HANDLE as a return type.This is the signature of the function within the DLL:
HANDLE netagentsearch(int nPort, int *nError); I am able to access the function fine with C++.
typedef HANDLE (*funcnetagentsearch)(int nPort,int *nError);funcnetagentsearch Search;Search = (funcnetagentsearch)GetProcAddress(hGetProcIDDLL, "netagentsearch");HANDLE test = Search(7, &error);
I understand that vb.net doesn't have a HANDLE type, but as far as I knew, you could use IntPtr instead. This is the code in vb.net: <DllImport("netclient.dll", EntryPoint:="netagentsearch")> _Public Shared Function GetDeviceList(ByVal nPort As Integer, ByRef nError As Integer) As IntPtr End Function Dim test As IntPtr = WirelessLedCtrl.GetDeviceList(7, error) The error I receive when trying to run the VB.NET code is:
DLLImport_Wireless.WirelessLedCtrl::GetDeviceList' has unbalanced the stack. This is likely because the managed PInvoke signature does not match the unmanaged target signature. Check that the calling convention and parameters of the PInvoke signature match the target unmanaged signature.
