Why A 2005 Console Application Disappears Immediately On Pressing F5 / Start Debug
Nov 1, 2009
I submitted the same question a few minutes ago, but so far that hasn't appeared in the thread - I wonder why/ - I used the HTML to rite the code I used. When I Click the F5 / Strat Debug on menu the DOS-Based form appears and disappears immediately. I am able to run a DOS-Based program in the computer, I checked this after the Sample Console Application failed to run. The Code I used is given within the Brackets(System.Console.WriteLine("Hello World")).
when i attempt to debug a program in visual basic studio 08 the black screen dissapears immediatly and i cannot read anything that appears. not sure if it is an option or a bug, but it makes the system relatively useless.
I have made my application to start automaticly when windows start (registry ../currentversion/run/appname + path). In this mode the application start minimized and an little icon appear in the notification icon area. With this icon you can maximize the app or exit it.If you exit the app and start it again using the Menu (Start/programs etc) than the application start in minimized mode (and in this case I would like to have it in normal mode) because the setting autostart is still true.Is there a way you can detect when the application start when windows startup using the above registry or when people click on an icon in the programs menu (or desktop)?
When running a console application, the dos window disappears without asking for a "press any key to continue", why? What setting in 2010 is not set correctly?
Im hoping to create an auto clicker which had variable speed control, one button to start and pressing space to stop the application. When start is pressed i want it to click 2 or 3 different locations on my screen if this is posible with about a 1 second delay between each pointer move.i could really use some help with getting started or even better a link to an already created application for this.
I set my computer then install VB6.0 run VS2005 VB.net 2005 error example: Visual Studio can not start debugging because-the debug target exe .'... 'is missing.uild the project and retry, or set the OutputPath and AssemblyName properties appropriately to point at the correct location for the target assembly. same machine can use the same VB6.0 and vb.net 2005 is not? do not fix the error, for example, I run with the above error, see attachment (Thumbnails.rar)
I have a several C# console applications that basically parse tons of data in memory (LINQ) and output the results to a text file. Now, forget about the writing to the text file for a minute because this is not where the problem is occurring.
When I run the application in debug mode, I will never get it to utilize more than 50% of cpu usage. It will be parsing/massaging hundreds of thousands of records, but only go X fast and utilize 50% of the cpu AT MOST (as viewed in the Task Manager).
I would really like to use 100% of the CPU to make the processing go faster. Does anybody have any insight? I am running Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3. I have Visual Studio 2008 Professional with Service Pack 1 installed. I have manually set the affinity of the process in Task Manager to a single core on the dual CPU. Sometimes I can catch it utilizing 51% or 52% of the CPU.
I have a simple desktop application that uses a .NET setup project (.msi file) to perform the installation. On the first installation, everything proceeds in a timely fashion with good feedback for the user.The problem occurs when the user is installing the latest version of the application over an old version on their machine.There is an unacceptably long delay of about 60 to 180 seconds from the time the installer's 'Welcome' dialog [It's not the Welcome dialog, I've removed that from the Start section of the setup project and replaced it with a CheckBox dialog to ask if the user wants a shortcut on the desktop] disappears until the 'Progress' dialog appears. The user sees minute(s) of blank screen and thinks the install has stopped or failed.
In the setup project properties, I've got the 'DetectNewerInstalledVersion' and 'RemovePreviousVersions' properties set to true. So, I believe that while nothing appears to be happening, the installer is actually removing the old version. The 'Progress' dialog does not appear until the new version begins installation.I've been trying to either:
a) Get the 'Progress' dialog to display immediately after the 'Install Icon' dialog disappears
b) Show another dialog while the Uninstall is running to let the user know that the setup is still running and everything is OK.
I have been unsuccessful with both methods. I'm using VS 2008 SP1?
This is a quick mock up of what my application looks like.Trying to incorporate a progress bar. I want to be able to click "start" then the start button disappears then a progress bar shows up in its place.
I'm having a strange problem with the following code, I'm writing a game launcher in VB.NET:
Dim gameProcess As Process = New Process() gameProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False gameProcess.StartInfo.FileName = TextBox2.Text
[Code]....
I see the game running for a split second in the task manager, but it immediately closes! Does anyone know why? When I run the game from Windows, it works fine.
I've also tried with Shell, same problem.
And I've tried with cmd.exe and the /C argument, same problem (note that when I type cmd.exe /C path_to_game_exe in the Windows Run Dialog, the game also starts fine), it's only when I launch it from the VB.NET app that it gives problems.
Can a contextmenu be used in a .Net 2005 console application? If so, how do I create the necessary events. I know how to create the control but not sure about the needed events. I'm thinking the only one I really need is the "Click" event.
is it possible to get the Console Application arguments as 1 string instead of a collection of string.For exemple, if I call my Console Application like this : myapp.exe This is a test I would like to get "This is a test" and not
I am trying to remember how to stop a console application from closing after it has run. I want the window to remain on the screen until I am ready to close it.
I have a procedure at the end of my console application that ask the user to either hit enter to end the program, or type s to perform another search. The issue I'm having is no matter what the user types in the program end. What I would like to happen is if the user types s, then the program starts over and lets the user perform another search. The program is procedural and I need to find a way to start back off at the top of the program which ask the user to type a name to search.
I'm a newbie and trying to develop my first program. The program is a console math quiz application. I want to add a timer to the code that tells the user the the amount of time it took for them to complete the quiz. I have no clue as to how I need to implement this.
I have a form program that runs long, and for kicks I was wondering if I could out put some data to a "real console" -not the Console useing the Output debugger.
i do a program that automatic press Tab and 1 But i do a 2 button 1st button is to Start the Program and 2nd program to stop program?? any one can do when i press F12 the program will start and when i press F9 the program will Stop?
I have a small console application that writes the [TARGETDIR] from my msi installer to a text file.If I choose C:Program Files as the installation folder, it only writes out C:Program..What would you use so that it doesn't stop writing when there's a space? [code]
I have a GUI with a few button on it and each button start an application. I want to prevent the application to start twice if the user double click on the button. How can I do that?
This happened to be once awhile ago and I thought I had the solution, but apparently I don't. Very rare, but what happens is, I'll start a new project, build my controls on the form, go into the code window and write some code. I'll save this all out, but when I reload the project, the code window comes up OK, but the design window is just gone. The code for the form and all the controls is still there in the form.designer window, but the form itself just will not appear, and there is no icon for it over in the Solution Explorer to click on
I have created a splash screen and it fades in. When the splash screen closes, the main form (MDI) should open. The main form opens but then immediately closes. vb Public Class frmSplash Private Sub frmSplash_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, _ ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing 'Open the MDI form. frmMain.Show() End Sub [Code] .....
i am using visual studio 2005 on win 7 with office 2007. i have developed win application. i am using microsoft activex spreadsheet component in my program. so it automatically creates reference to AxInterop.OWC11.dll When i run program in debug mode (open program and click RUN in toolbar it works) but if i run directly .exe (go to bin elease doubleclick .exe) it give error at loading point of that component. It says "Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory has been corrupted." An unhandled exception occurrs.
I've deployed an application inside a corporate network and I want the update process to require less attention from users. Giving them a choice to update is not a porogative.I've written code to detect when new updates are available automatically rather than letting ClickOnce check on application start. I'm wondering if its necessary to restart the app after the update has completed. Currently I invoke at the end of my update script:Application.Restart()
But what if (to make the update process more transparent for the user), I performed a 'silent' update in the background on a separate thread, and then displayed an icon prompting the user to restart the app to apply the changes? Would it work this way?
Furthermore, if I ran my custom InstallUpdate() process on a timer, say every 2 hours, would ClickOnce be happy to continue to update for every new version that was released even thought the user has not restarted (and I'm expecting the updates only to apply once the user restarts the app)?
I ran out of ideas and couldn't find any reference about it so here I go... I need to keep a secondary application wich is not related to my c# project always running in background. So if this secondary application crashes or someone else close it manually it will automatically re launch again via my c# app.
I have no clue of how to accomplish this one, I mean checking if this application closes by something external to my c# app.
I'm using VS2008, and I have a project that will not start when I press F5 or when I click the little green triangle in the toolbar. The screen flickers once, like the project is going to run, and then it doesn't. The build message claims the build was successful, but the project won't start.In the Configuration Manager, my 'Active solution configuration:' is set to Debug, and in the 'Project contexts' list, the 'Configuration' column for my Project is set to Debug. I've even switched them back and forth between Debug and Release and then back to Debug, all with no effect. The project that I'm trying to run is set as the 'Startup Project' in my solution.If I go to my inDebug folder and double-click the .exe, (which shows the proper time-stamp on the file) my app runs just fine.Any ideas why I can't get the silly thing to run in debug mode?
EDIT: It's a winforms application. My version of Visual Studio is 9.0.30729.1 SP
I'm having problems with my VS2005 .Net2.0 VB.Net Windows forms application.When I start the application and work with it for a while it somehow disappears from the taskbar.To get the Application button back on the taskbar I use Alt+Tab to switch to the application and voila,.. the taskbar button is back.In my code and form I can't seem to find anything strange.ShowInTaskbar is set to trueFormborderstule = SizableIt is an MDI application that is used for administrative purposes on sql databases.
