I created a software which download files from the web. I also added a progress bar which shows the download progress. Every thing works fine.
Now:
- How can I add a label that will calculate the time left for the file to be downloaded and another label that will tell the speed of the download?
- Would it also be possible to add a label which calculates the size of the file that is begin downloaded?
Here is what I declared:
Imports System.Net
Public Class Form1
Dim WithEvents Download As New WebClient
Dim WithEvents Download1 As New WebClient
Friend WithEvents Label1 As System.Windows.Forms.Label
Here is what I have under the download button:
Download.DownloadFileAsync(New Uri("URL" & ComboBox1.Text & ".rar"), Textbox1.Text & "" & ComboBox1.Text & ".rar")
And here is what I have under Download_DownloadProgressChanged:
ProgressBar1.Value = e.ProgressPercentage
Label1.Text = e.ProgressPercentage & "%"
If ProgressBar1.Value = 100 Then
MsgBox("Download Completed!", vbInformation, "Info")
Label1.Text = "0%"
I have a codes that calculates DownLoad speed and UpLoad speed kb/s. I would like to implement this kind. I also want to put such kind of graph. Any article or links where can I start building my own like that.
View 2 RepliesI'm just wondering about making a downloader like IDM, we all know how it works right?well, just wondering it how did they implement like"Chopping / Splitting " files to download - They do have each a starting point.then merges the files?
View 5 RepliesI'm making a downloader program in Visual Basic 2010, and it calculates the current download speed, the approximate time left and all that good stuff.But when I download certain files, the program decides to f*** up.The program stays still for a bit, and nothing happens when i click download button, but then all out the sudden the download starts like normal but an error message pops up and it says:
"Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow"As I previously said, this error message only pops up on certain files.Then I started to do some "error-investigating" xD, and i found out that this line caused the error msg:
dlspeed = e.BytesReceived / SW.ElapsedMilliseconds
remainingtime = ((e.TotalBytesToReceive - e.BytesReceived) / dlspeed) / 1000
lbl_dlspeed.Text = Math.Round(dlspeed) & " kB/s"
That code is written in the web_downloadprogresschanged class.And SW is a stopwatch.I mean, it still downloads fully and such, but it looks ugly when an error message pops up even though it works.

View 2 RepliesI need to create a simple program that will calculate de price of the meal+the taxes aswell as the tip.
The prov taxe= 8,5%
the fed taxe = 8%
and the tip is 15%
I need to use const for this one.heres what i came up with:
Private Sub partie4_click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles partie4.Click
Dim repas As String
Dim sous_total As String
[code]....
The user has to type the price of the meal and then it should calculate the price but for some reason instead of *8,5% it will do x*8.5.
Currently I was making a program that will store staff holidays, with a form they can fill out when they take some.The form has Holiday Start and Holiday Finish as 2 Date Fields.Also 7 Check boxes(Monday to Sunday) so they can tick which days they would normally work.The problem i have is then we need to know how many days are being taken, for example.[code]But they have ticked they only work Tuesdays and Thursdays this means they would have only took 2 days holiday.How could i calculate this say if an employee took 1 month?

View 6 RepliesI am trying to calculate the difference between 2 times.
So far I have 4 labels.
Label1 = Current date and time.
Label2 = Contains the exact time that the application was last closed.
Label3 = Contains the exact time that the application was opened.
Label4 = I want this label to say how much time in seconds had elapsed between the application last being closed and the application being opened again, in other words the difference in seconds between label 2 and label 3.
Below is what I have done so far, but despite repeated efforts I can't seem to find a way of getting the time difference to show in label 4?

I make a lot of programs that require an internet connection to download things from the web.At the very beginning, I used WebClient, as I didn't know Socket & how it worked.But now, I use Socket all the time, altough it's more lines of code. It seems to work faster then WebClient.I am interested if this is really true & why WebClient is slower (so is HttpWebRequest) then just a Socket.I've setup 2 threads which starts on the click of a button (WebClient thread starts first), the Socket beats the WebClient by just some milliseconds, but still.Each way has it's advantages & disadvantages, e.g.: if you use Socket, you need to write the header yourself & parse the response header.My question is, which one do you prefer & why ?Do you know why WebClient & HttpWebRequest are slower then Socket, as I assume, WebClient & HttpWebRequest both use tcp to download the things.
View 2 RepliesI have a ftp download in a background session that updates to a progressbar, file download takes about 2 minutes and it works great, gives me the length that has been downloaded, total size, and the bytes remaining.I thought it would be cool to have the speed show as well but not sure I have all the info to work with, or how exactly to do it. This is my loop, and what I do have works fine just want to have the speed show as well if possible:[code]
View 5 RepliesI have setup an application to parse about 3000 files a day where each contains around 4000-5000 posts in xml format with like 100 fields. It involves a lot of cleanup and parsing but on average it takes around 6 seconds per post. Now I tried threading but because of the way I have everything set up with variables being overwritten etc...I have divided the files into different folders and just created copies of the program to run and access the assigned folder. It is running on a windows 2008 server with 16 G of memory and I am told I need to reprogram to speed up the process and also not use so much memory.

I was just wondering if I could create a simple downloader created using VB 2008. The user will enter the complete address of a file from the internet, click the Download button then the downloading process will start. There should also be a button labeled "Paste" which will paste a valid path (copied into the Clipboard) into a textbox .
View 5 RepliesI was wondering if it was possible to create a custom downloader integrated into your web browser like opera or firefox, just downloads the item and lists the downloads.

This is happening: If the selected item is "Google Chrome" Then a textbox's text should be "Google Chrome".
