I am making a program that is sort of a frontend to all my other apps. I put the EXEs of those apps into the resources of my frontend. The problem occurs when I try to run the EXEs from memory.
I keep getting System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException on the line:
entryPoint.Invoke(RuntimeHelpers.GetObjectValue(objectValue), New Object() {New String() {"1"}})

I am trying to create an application that will play a movie file, then when it has played the movie, give the user 30 seconds then shut the system down. i have so far made it so that it does everything i need expect when the code for the additional 30 seconds is up i get the following error:
Quote:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException' occurred in mscorlib.dll
Additional information: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.
When i had a message box being made at the same point it worked fine but when i added the shutdown code in it doesnt work so i am confident it is not with the if statements but more the "Process.Start("shutdown /s /t 30")" line.
Private Sub timShutdown_Elapsed(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs) Handles timShutdown.Elapsed

View 6 RepliesIf I change something in my visual basic, and start debugging, nothing changes to the program I made. Wether I save or not, it's just always the same.
Secondly, I would be very glad if somebody could give me the codes for a
"Create User" button. So it saves in C:Program FilesAcc.txt
And if you created one, you can login with it after that.

I have had several occasions recently to access a specific class several times over a relatively small time frame.So I've been storing the value of the class in Session and trying to access it on page load, if it's not available creating a new instance and storing that in session.
So instead of constantly replicating the same code for different classes on different pages I'm trying to create an extension method to do this for me.
[Code]...
I'm stuck on what to do when I make my new instance of my class (it would have to have a New() sub)
I'm not sure where to go from here... or even if this is the best way to do it.
Im using system.reflection to inject a managed (.net) file directly into memory.This injection works with other managed files, but this file has data in the EOF and it wont run without that data.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to determine every single reference inside a dll with System.Reflection. However, GetReferencedAssemblies only lists the ones in the "References" (visible in solution explorer).
I would like to determine references from within the code itself, such as an imports statement. Even things like if/then statements, try/catch, absolutely everything.
Is this possible to do using System.Reflection? If so, how?
I would definitely prefer to do this without p/invoke.
I am trying to create an Excel file using reflection. The reason, the application will be running on many machines some of which may or not have excel installed.

I am loading an assembly dynamically and invoking a static method from it. The problem arises when the method uses a reference which is not trivial (e.g. mscorlib or System.Core) - I get System.MissingMethodException. I have tried going through the references assemblies of the loaded assembly and manually loading them all, thus forcing them to be loaded onto the AppDomain. I have checked CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies, the assemblies are loaded.

I cannot get the following to work for me: its the section that sets the default for system.data.linq.binary. The database I work with doesn't allow nulls in any field. So I generally run my buffer through this routine to populate defaults and then set the real values independently, (this works when I miss a field). I can set the Linq table field = fakeBinary and it works like a charm. Thus, I don't understand why using reflection can't pull of the same thing.
Ex: Me.CM20500WindowBuffer.Reconcile_Messages = New Byte() {0} works.
Try
Dim fakeBinary As System.Byte() = {0}
For Each fld In nObj.GetType().GetProperties
Select Case fld.PropertyType
Case GetType(Byte)

I'm passing a type name and some parameters from C# code into a navigation framework written in VB. The navigation framework looks for a constructor on the type that matches the parameters passed in using Type.GetConstructor(Types()). The constructor that I'm looking for expects an array of integers Integer() in vb. But it gets an array of System.Int32. I've gone so far as to try this:
[Code]...
And the VB code still sees System.Int32 on the other end, which means that it doesn't find the constructor.
I have tried several versions of this with no luck. The casting of the worksheet works as my data is entered in other parts, but I have a section where I need to add data 1 column right of the cell containing the 'str(0)' value. Most of these parameters are optional. I have even tried the System.Reflection.Missing object.

Our company has an app that load their components by System.Reflection.Load (By the way, an awesome technique )But, we start to monitorate the application and detect a extrange grow up of memory (actually when our application still all day on air, their allocate memory on task manager is 200 MB plus memory) And all of our components (60 plus DLLs) is load by this technique.My doubt is how to deallocate this assemblies or how the best way to deallocate any assemblies loaded by the System.Reflection.Assemblie.Load method?
View 10 RepliesI am developing a COM dll library, and I have a little vb.net (vs 2005) application just to test it.I had my object declared in the application as
Private m_VarName As MyLib.CMyComClass
So far, so good.But now, I need an event to inform the application of some things, so I implemented such event in the COM dll, and changed the declaration to
Private WithEvents m_VarName As MyLib.CMyComClass
So far, so good, again. But if I add a Sub to handle my event:
Private Sub m_VarName_OnCaptureStop() Handles m_VarName.MyEvent
..
End Sub
The first time I create the object, nothing bad happens, but if I reinstantiate it
If (Not m_VarName Is Nothing) Then ReleaseComObject(m_VarName)
m_VarName= New MyLib.CMyComClass
then I get a cryptic TargetInvocationException, seemingly related to reflection (which, AFAIK, I am not using).If I remove the "Handles m_VarName.MyEvent" part, everything seems to work. In case it matters, I am not firing any event, for now.

View 11 RepliesIs there some interface I can implement to allow basic comparisons and math to happen as it would an integer?
For example, let's say I have the following class:
Public Class Something
Public SomeBigNumber as UInt64
End Class
I would like to do something like this:
Dim SomethingA, SomethingB, SomethingC as New Something
....
If (SomethingA-SomethingB) > SomethingC Then
'Do stuff
End If
I was hoping to be able to implement some interface (if that is even the right term for it) that would return the UInt64 contained in the class for comparison and math, if possible.
me and a partner need to play sounds when certain events occur, however, every method we try..
My.Computer.Audo.Play("file.wav")
or?
Sound.PlayWaveFile("file.wav") from this class: http:[url]....etc they all don't work
They do NOT throw any exceptions, they just dont play the music, the test demo of the Sound Class works like a charm, its just not working in our project..same with My.Computer. Audio. Play.what could we have done to make it so that we can't play sounds from our application?
PS: this problem occurs on all of the computers we test it on, yet the normal sound-playing methods seem to work on all of those computers when they are implemented in other projects.. its just not working in these instances

I am trying to create a background worker that will spawn a dialog, while a long event is occurring. For example, when the main thread in trying to connect connect to a db and update a large amount of records, I would like to have the background worker spawn a dialog that advises the user to "Please Wait"
Here is what I have so far
1. I create a background worker using the drag and drop
2. Before the event that taking a long time starts I call:
Me.BackgroundWorker1.RunWorkerAsync()
BackgroundWorker1.WorkerReportsProgress = True
3. This is the events for the bgworker, all of which was enabled in the form designer:
Private Delegate Sub delCreateNewForm()
Private Sub BackgroundWorker1_DoWork(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs) Handles BackgroundWorker1.DoWork
Dim d As New delCreateNewForm(AddressOf CreateNewForm)
Me.Invoke(d)
[Code] .....
4. When the long activity is completed I call this:
BackgroundWorker1.ReportProgress(0)
Everything seems to work fine, except that the newly spawned dialog in no responsive and appears to be frozen, until its closed by the Progress Changed event.

In other words, when i delete a record, using an sql query not the DataGridView1.Rows.Remove(DataGridView1.CurrentRow) property, i want the changes to occur to the datagridview also. For example: I have a customers table that is bound to the datagridview. When i delete a record, lets say the one with ID=5, i want the row to be removed from the gridview in run-time.
