Command Line Argument: Check If Correct Command Line Or Exit App?

Jun 6, 2012

I have beginner skills using VB (am using the Express edition to learn). I would like to know how to set up a conditional statement in a Windows Form (WF) app that would check if a specific command line has been passed by another separate app that launchesthe Windows Form app using command lines, and if not passed, then the Windows Form app would shut down (exit, close).So far, I can use:

For Each s As String In My.Application.CommandLineArgs
If s <> "xyz" Then
Me.Close()

Send A Command To A Command Line And Then Submit The Command?

Apr 30, 2010

First let me say that I am not sure whether or not this should go in this section or the API section, and if it needs to be moved I apologize. My issue is fairly straight forward, but for some reason I cannot get it to work.

I am trying to send a command to a command line and then submit the command. I have been trying without success to get this to work in v2008 Express and v2010 Express, Here is the code I am trying to us:

Command Line Switches - Keeping Command Window Open?

Feb 24, 2010

I am using the following code to run defrag and to analyze if the C: drive requires defragmentation:

Dim analyze As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:WindowsSystem32defrag.exe", "C: /a /h /u /v")

This process runs through analyzing, runs it in normal mode & prints the progress to the command window.

My problem is that as soon as the process is complete the command window closes. I need it to stay open so that I can read the results.

Send Command To Command Line From Windows Form Application?

Mar 11, 2010

I am trying to send a command to the external command line (cmd.exe) from the Windows form application that I'm writing in VB.NET (using VS2008).

I can only access the external program thru the command line (its not my program) and I must do so from a form app.

I am trying to use the following code. I am able to call a cmd.exe window, but I can't pass the command line my command.

Using mp As New Process
With mp.StartInfo
.FileName = "cmd.exe"

Command Line Program To End Before Moving Onto The Next Command In Loop?

Feb 4, 2011

I am using a CheckedListBox that is populated with Filenames (full path, i.e. C:TestTest.jpg)When I have the files that I want in the CheckedListBox I wish to click a Start Button which will process the list one at a time using an exe program that runs on the Command Line. There are arguments that need to pass to the command line as well as the file location in order for the program to process.I currently have it working but the issue is the loop finishes quickly and it is left up to the CMD.exe to finish the process. What I would like is for the LOOP to wait until each file completes processing before passing the command for the next file in the CheckedListBox.There some reasons I wish for it to work this way.

1) I would like to have a button that can Pause/Restart the Loop.

2) I would like to have a button that can Stop the Loop so the whole process can end.

3) I would like to have the Loop remove each file one by one from the CheckedListBox after it has been processed.

4) I would like to display a Message once all the files have been processed.

5) And if it were possible I would like to report the status either by text or a progress bar showing where it is at in the process.

6) And the ability to add some error handling if possible.

Since the Loop finishes so quickly as it just passes the command to the command line using the & as a seperator it is the command line that is handling the rest of the process. Because of this there is not control over it in the GUI.The code I am using allows the Command Line text to display in the Form so it won't open up a seperate window to run CMD.exe. This is the desired affect as I would like everything to appear to run from within the Form itself.

VS2008 2D Put Values Into A Scrolling Line Graph

Feb 14, 2011

I'd like to do something I thought was simple. All I'd like is to take the data from a connected database, then put those values into a scrolling line graph. Preferabley with 4 lines (taking information from separate tables) on the same graph. I've connected the database and set up a script to populate it with data, but that's as far as I go with graphs.

I've downloaded 'MSChart.exe', 'MSChart_VisalStudioAddOn.exe', ChartFXLiteNet' and others, yet none work. I've also followed a tutorial here on graphs, but it's for visual studio 2005, and I don't have the options required. I'm using Visual Studio 2008 with VB.NET.

VS2008 Load And Parse A Text File And Extract Data Between Points On Any Given Line

I can load the file, but it's the parsing that's giving me headaches. e.g. "Phoned Jim and arranged for John to attend site" First I need to search for "Phoned" because the line always starts with that, and then I need to extract "Jim and arranged for John"

.NET - Pass Command On Command Line?

May 29, 2012

I am struggling to pass a parameter to a VB.NET application via a Windows scheduled task. It works perfectly in Visual Studio (passing a command line arguement via project properties).If I am calling a VB6 application, then I will supply the following parameters and it works:

Run: c:progra~1TestTest.exe TestParameter Start In: c:progra~1Test However, if I supply the same parameters in VB.NET, the program throws an exception when it tries to create an instance of a class in the Form.Load: System.NullReferenceException cannot create instance of object.

I have also tried the following:Run: c:program filesTestTest.exe TestParameter Start In: "c:program filesTest" This time the status of the scheduled task changes to "cannot start".What is the correct way to specify command line parameters in a scheduled task for a VB.NET program?UPDATE I found the solution on this web page:[URL}.. I am still confused as to why the program would not create an instance of an object when I used the 8 bit paths (i.e. progra~1)

Tool To Reformat Code / Specifically Line Breaks

Jan 6, 2010

Are there any tools available for automatically formatting vb.net code - specifically for adding line breaks at a predefined line length? I'm working with a lot of code with long lines (thousands of lines), and manually reformatting it is quite time consuming. I've seen a number of tools for rearranging code into regions etc., but haven't found any that reformat with line breaks.

I have succeeded to write the first sentence, but the second will not register.This represents essentially everything I've tried. (I haven't included the arrays because they're pretty long.)

Run A Command Line EXE From .NET?

Mar 3, 2006

I want to run the following command line program from VB.NET: rotor95.exe -d -k "password" -i "C:FileLocation" -o "C:FileLocation" The reason for this is that I don't want my users to have to drop out to a command line prompt in order to run a tiny program for 3 seconds. Typing in a 50 - 75 character file path twice isn't any fun either.

I tried using tooltask as discussed in the MSDN2 help but it appears to work with switches (/d etc.) but not parameters (-k "password"). I couldn't get the thing to work. See the following for the tooltask example:[URL]..light now I'm just using Shell("rotor95.exe -d -k "password" -i "C:FileLocation" -o "C:FileLocation") which works just fine but I'd like to use the .NET 2.0 super-whammy version of handling this problem if there is a better way to do it.

Using FTP Over The Command Line?

Sep 19, 2010

how to use basic FTP functions straight from the command line tool. and I started using Visual Studio to create "macros" for the command line tool (i.e. writing down specific functions to perform, write them to a txt file and then run Shell() to execute.)But what I want to know is if I can open a command prompt window and then interact with it. Say for example I'm writing an FTP class/object, I'd want to be able to keep a window up for my program to send commands to (And wishfully read data back from it.)Because it seems to me that whenever I use the Shell() command it just opens a prompt window and then closes it after my line of code has been executed. Is there way to interact with a command line window from Visual Studio? And maybe even scrape data from the terminal like with terminal emulator scripts?

Read/Write Command Prompt

Mar 12, 2010

I have made an application that requires executing an external command prompt application, and I need to be able to read the result from its completion of each file it processes.

The external application works by specifying an input directory, it then scans for a series of compatible files and then converts them all one by one in a single command. I need to be able to read each line it writes and provide the appropriate feedback in my application. It would be nice if i could hide the window it creates too. Code I have tried working from:

Code:
Private Sub btnRead_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnRead.Click
Dim CMD As New Threading.Thread(AddressOf GETCMD)

I have an if/then/else that looks at args.length and if it equals 0 then I load the form and run the app normally. But how do I handle things when args are passed? I still need access to all the functions defined in my main form. Can I load the form invisibly and still "use" it?

Getting Command Line Arguments ?

When you open up a .txt file, the command line opens up notepad.exe with the argument %1. which opens the text file. i dont know about the function but i understand a little bit about it.

So what i wanted to do was create a .lxproj, and make it open up with my application. i have done this part so far with an installer that creates registry keys. but, what i would like to know is how to open the file. for a test i would like a message box to be displayed if the program is run by clicking the .lxproj. if its opened normally the messagebox doesnt display.
