I have a project where I added visually and successfully a datasource of MySql. I binded a datagridview with a table.

But, how do I change programatically the password, ip or user to connect with the MySql server? Because it can change at any time, so I can let the user change these values.

VS 2010 Creating Connection To Mysql Db?

Sep 3, 2011

I want to add a new Data Source (so I can use it with Crystal Reports) but using mysql, I did this before.

In the left side under: 'Data Sources' and then choosed 'Add New DataSource'Then I choose: Database > Dataset I clicked in 'New Connection' and I changed the first box (with 'change' button (as you can see in the image attached)) to what is showed in the image (MySQL Database..)The problem is, as I type the first letter of any of the textbox's that are below (server, user, or pwd) it closes that form showing the previous form (where I clicked 'New Connection')

Have someone had this problem ?I had a connection there, but since I changed the project from 'Framwork 4 Client Profile' to 'Framework 4' (so I could have the Crystal Report Viewer) the connection has gone and don't leaves me create it again.PD: I'm using dotNetConnector (already Added as a Reference)

VS 2010 - How To Transfer MySQL Connection Over 2 Forms

Jun 13, 2011

I'm creating a database management program and I just got started. I will be using a login form and a form that is the management part. The MySQL connection will be created on the login form and I was wondering how to get it to the other form. What I thought I should do is create a public mysqlconnection property on the login form and just use it from there. I don't think I have ever known the correct way of transferring a mysqlconnection over 2 forms.

VS 2010 Developing A Chat Application Using Online Connection To A Mysql Database?

Mar 4, 2012

I am developing a chat application using online connection to a mysql databbase. But i am facing a problem. After 10 minutes, MySQL closes all the chat connections because of the 600 seconds timeout (has been set by the host service i am using). I don't understand why is that happening cause every piece of my code which needs data from the database opens and closes the connection (i mean that it dosn't maintain the connection after the query's execution). If i .close() and .dispose() the connection, it still appears in mysql at sleep mode (it terminates only if i exit the program).

Dim MySQLCon as New MySQLConnection
Dim MySQLCom as New MySQLCom

VS 2010 Connection String?

I have written an application that is currently in use at my work. I am wanting to clean up the code and start preparing the application to make it available to other business of the same type.

Also what is the best installer to use I am currently using one-click.This is my next step as soon as I get the limit number of logins and some sort of licensing scheme.

VS 2010 C++ Dll Is Not Thread Safe?

Apr 19, 2012

I'm calling a c++ dll I made myself - and it appears to be very VERY not thread safe!

I'm referencing it like this

Public Shared Function firstIndexOfKeyword(ByVal s As String, ByVal substr As String(), ByVal substrLength As Integer, ByVal markers As Integer()) As Integer End Function

Is there a way to make this IMPORT create something more threadsafe?

VS 2010 Seems Like This Is Not Thread Safe

Feb 27, 2012

I'm dropping into this function - from several threads - to add an OBJECT to a dictionary collection

Private Delegate Function ReaderRegisterDelegate(ByRef rrFSOb As FSObject) As FSObject
Private Function ReaderRegister(ByRef rrFSOb As FSObject) As FSObject
Try[code].....

It's getting Object reference not set to an instance of an object.The FILEID key being added is F1. F2, F3 and F4 are in the dictionary. Seems like F1 arrived and the object wasn't properly setup. Or thread-slice caused me to see a partially messed with dictionary list?How can I make that a thread safe operation? I thought dropping out to the UI thread was a safe place to mess with code like this? Oddly enough I can go to the immediate window and do this

m_FSObCollection.Add("F" + rrFSOb.FileId.ToString, rrFSOb)
?m_FSObCollection.Count 4

ex.data is a dictionary list that looks like this

directcast(ex.Data , System.Collections.IDictionary).Count 0

VS 2010 - MySQL Connector As A Resource On My Application - Connect To My MySQL Server

Jun 21, 2012

What i have going on, is i have a MySQL connector as a resource on my application, and im basically trying to connect to my MySQL server, to either a) register a new account, or b) check that the account exists and they are premium, and login, Now what i have run into problems with is: My MySQL Database Name has a _ in it which VB is not allowing for some strange reason.

The code i am using is below

Imports MySql.Data.MySqlClient

Public Class Form1

Function UpdateRecord(ByVal query As String) As Integer

[CODE]...

How i can allow the _ into the application, because the only databases that don't have a _ in the user or dbname are a) Paid ones which i DO NOT have the money for or self hosted ones, i cannot leave my computer on 24/7

I understand that I need to protect the connection string at time of the app being first run on the target machine.

I am looking for advice in how to deploy my app with the connection string already encrypted or encrypted during installation. encrypting the connection string in a secure way?
