Will App Compiled On 64 Bit Run On 32 Bit Machine
Nov 20, 2010
I'm buying a new computer this week and the one I want has Windows 7 Home Edition 64 bit. I program in VB.NET using VS2008. If I write a program and compile on this 64 bit windows, will it run in 32 bit? I did some reading and from what I understand is if it is not using any specific 64 bit drivers I should be good. I'm not doing anything fancy that I know of as far as drivers. I just wanted to see what everyone's past experience has been.

Here's the situation - I have a vb.net exe compiled for X86 machines using 2 dll's... Because one of the dll's was only provided in 32 bit, and I didn't want to have to deal with 32/64 versions, I forced 32 bit in compile options and everything was fine. Now I have a 64 bit workstation that is throwing an error about the sqlite.dll (error #1 below).
after reading around I am starting to understand a lot of people are having this issue. I tried replacing the dll on the client machine with the 64 bit version of sqlite and that didn't work (error #2). I read somewhere that the 64 bit version requires VC 2010 redistro, but that didn't work. I can't compile this app as a 64 bit because of the other dll is 32 bit.

I have created an application using VB.NET in VS2008. When I run the app in the IDE on my development machine it works fine. It also works fine when I build it and run it as an exe on any machine that also has Visual Studio installed (at least 2005 and 2008 anyway) However, when I try to run the compiled executable on any machine without Visual Studio it throws up an error "[program name] has encountered a problem and will close..."

I have some programs written in VB2010 using functions from a DLL. I have compiled and run these programs on a 32bit XP computer and a 32bit Win7 computer and have had no problems accessing the DLL.I have published an installation of these programs and tried running the install on a 64bit Win7 machine and the installation is performed correctly. It installs the programs and copies the required DLL into the same folder. the problem is that whenever I run the software and try to access the DLL I get errors.
The error says something like:
An unhandled exception has occurred in your application. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. (Exception from HRESULT:0x8007000B)
If I click past it the software runs and all of the forms are loaded properly, but anytime in the software if I try to access the DLL I get the same error.I am declaring functions in the DLL like this:
Public Declare Function OpenDriver Lib "OP815M.DLL" (ByVal handle_Renamed As Integer) As Integer
I have also tried placing the DLL in the system32 directory and also the sysWOW64 directory and that did not help as well.I do recall that hardware drivers need to be properly signed and pass the Microsoft Logo testing. Must I get the DLLs I am using properly signed?
Edit: Also it might be fair to mention that I have used the DLL with another program written in C, which would run in the DOS command line in Windows and it correctly accesses the DLL on a 64bit machine, but just when run from the DOS command line in windows.

I've a requirement to have PreCompiled webpages and Non-PreCompiled webpages under same application. For example below is my structure:
/Bin
/Test1 (PreCompiled)
/Test2 (NonPreCompiled)
/Test3 (PreCompiled)
I would like these to have their separate "Bin" folders too if possible at all (I tried using "Probing" but I guess that's not allowed for web apps and defaults to "Bin" folder). If not that then definitely some ability for these to work together under one app/virtual directory because I'm not allowed to create another at any cost :(

I've inherited a lot of custom made software for an office, and, while managing it, I've found it performs differently from machine to machine.I mean, some controls get painted in weird ways in some machines but well in another, or just work differently, like in some machines clicking something selects it, and in the next machine clicking the same thing makes it editable.I suspect, o course, of the myriad of DLL the software loads

I am not a programmer or anything like that but I have managed to create a little program.The program is for work. It is VERY simple - it adds a few figures the user inputs and then generates a text output so the user can copy and paste it to a customers diary notes on the customers account.Here's the problem: It works on the managers computer but not on the consultants computers who will be using it! The reason it doesn't work is because the normal consultants computers don't have .NET installed :( The solution is simple - install .NET! lol however the company I work for is quite massive (corporate size) and our department is quite small and insignificant so if we want to install something like .NET on all the consultants computers it will take around 6-8 weeks! Now we desperately need to start using this mini program ASAP! Is there any humanly possible way to run a Visual Basic program without installing .NET? Is there some kind of file I can download and put in the folder of the mini program that will allow it to work?

compare to compile .NET assemblies?
For example I have HelloWorld.dll (1.0.0.0) and HelloWorld.dll (2.0.0.0), and I want to compare differences how can I do this?
I know I can use .NET Reflector and use the Assembly Diff plugin. Are there any other good tools out there to do this?

I've got a 3rd party C application that's compiled to a non-.NET non-COM DLL. It has one simple function declared like so: Declare Function CapiTaxRoutine Lib "taxcommono.dll" (ByVal sInData As String, ByVal OutputData As String, ByVal intINPutLength As Long) As Integer
If I place the taxcommono.dll in my path (C:WindowsSystem32 is what I'm using because it's what the vendor recommends),I can wire up a call to the function and it works just fine.It returns a 1 or 0 for success/failure, but it also sets the value of the OutputData string parameter (using some C pointer magic I'm not familiar with) to a huge fixed width format return record that has the data I need.When I call it from a .NET .exe application, it works just fine.When I try to call it from an ASP.NET application via a referenced compiled .NET wrapper DLL, it runs but can't set that string.In order to get it to run, I can't have taxcommono.dll in my path, but rather have to place it in my Bin directory of the web project.Does anyone know of a reason it can set the pointer when called from an .exe application but not when called from a web app?The .NET wrapper DLL I'm using works when called from our ERP software, which is not web based. But when I add a reference to that same DLL in the web app, it won't give me that output value.am used to just getting a return value instead of a function setting the value of one of my input parameters.

For the last two days or so, I've been trying to get a program to compile another program that will extract a series of files and run them in a given order, like a self extracting zip archive.The program compiles fine and compiles sub programs, but I am unable to go about correctly embedding the resources.The output program shows the large amount of data ( ~12mb from the file I've been embedding to test ), and there are no compile errors.However, I cannot get it to access the resources correctly. It will either result in a compile error about the resource image not being valid / containing any resources, or a friendly "System.Resources.MissingManifestResourceException" being thrown.

I have a VB .dll from a previous developer that I need to modify. So I de-compiled it with no errors and then exported the code. I tried to compile the project and get two syntax errors:
New SqlDataAdapter(query, Me.connection).Fill(dataTable)
New SqlDataAdapter(DirectCast(command, SqlCommand)).Fill(dataTable)
The error message just says syntax error, nothing else.

I am making an application which will have a member list for my clan (with listbox), and times of warnings (with label), and conflicts people have had with this member (listbox).I want my application able to add members (with saving in file), and remove members (with saving in file), and remove warnings (wth saving in file).As I dont know how to split and remove and store stuff in a single file, it'd be impossible for me to code. That's why I come here and ask if someone can code this for me.Some of my friends said it could be possible by splitting each line, in the following format in a .ini (doesn't have to be .ini it can be also a non-format file) file:
[M]Member1|IntWarnings|Conflict1-Conflict2-Conflict3[M]
[M]Member2|IntWarnings|Conflict1-Conflict2[M]
This friend can't help me now, because he suddenly had to go offline, he might not come online today aswell.I have already made the interface, but as I said before, I have no idea how to code this and would like some help with this application.All the members I would like to store in: lstMembers (Listbox All the conflicts per SELECTED member I would like to store in: lstConflicts (Listbox)The warnings per SELECTED member, I would like to store in: lblWarningI want to know if this is all possible and HOW, since I have no idea what Split can do.

Our application is one EXE and multiple DLL's. Right now, we are compiling all of them for x86 so we are forcing 32bit because the running size of the application is a lot smaller (memory usage).If we compile the EXE as x86 and the DLL's as anyCPU, on a 64bit machine will the DLL's be 32bit or 64bit?
the reason for my question is if i can compile the DLL's for anyCPU and then have two EXE's, one for 32bit and one for 64bit, then i have only one duplicate program for the 32 or 64 bit change, and if a user wants to run full 64bit they only need to run the 64bit EXE and everything is fine. But if a user is on a 64bit machine but wants to run in 32bit mode, they would run the 32bit EXE.Let me know if this is true. i can't test this as i develop on a 32bit XP machine.

I just tried debugging my game using the green play button, what ever thats called, and upon telling the debugger to break on a few lines, each time it actually hit that respective line, I got an error from vs2010 telling me that the source files were different than they were when the program was compiled...and every time that I USED to change the files, and then debug the program, vs2010 would automatically rebuild the files...

I'm currently using FFmpeg to compile massive amounts of images into video. FFMPEG is really great but it takes a very long time to compile 20 Minutes of images which is roughly around 5GB of files. In recent posts I have read that some users used other encoders such as Avidemux. For those who have experience with it, does it compile faster? or can add an image to an existing video file so that as the images are created by my program it will be added to the video file. Can Avidemux be distributed easily like FFMpeg's single exe file? Do my users have to install Avidemux along with my program?
If there is another encoder out there that can add images to an existing video file please let me know. My main goal is to cut the time it takes to render the video, because with my current methods of FFMPEG doing everything in the end at once takes a really long time. Almost the same amount of time that the video was running for.

I am using Umbraco (a .NET CMS), and it has a reference to a specific version of a DLL (see 1 Umbraco Reference below). This is fine until I try to hook into the .NET MailChimp API which references a different vesion of the same DLL (see 2 PerceptiveMCAPI below).I can think of a couple of options for resolving this
a. Get either the Umbraco or PerceptiveMCAPI source and reference the same version of the DLL, really do not want to do this for compatibility reasons
b. Dump the 2 DLLs in the GAC, I want to avoid this as I see deployment issues arising if someone forgets (I know we should have an automated deployment but time is restricted)
I remember that there is a third option to specify what version of the DLL to use in the configuration. Is this possible and what is the code for it?
1 Umbraco Reference

I read many questions on running .net code with mono but i always end up with the same question. I'm building a new app right now, so i better start straight and take the good direction: Can i develop an app within Visual C# Express or Visual Basic Express, compile it from the Microsoft environment using the compilers they have and run that application using MONO on linux.Or do i have to work with the mono compiler from scratch (or convert my MS project afterwards to mono) to be able to use my .net apps using the Mono framework on linux.Linux/Mac support is not really a must for my app development, but i'd like to get it straight off the start.i'm using WinForms, Encryption, Globalization, SQLClient but thats probably all, is there anything you Mono experts out can tell me NOT to use off the start.Oh and i use the My namespace for all sorts of things such as getting the computer name, logged on user name, resources, settings, etc...

I have completed a small VB console app to read data from a BT card scanner. From within the VS2010 developer the app runs as desired, capturing the data and displaying it on screen with console.writeline().When I compile and execute the code either from the debug bin version or the release bin version, the app only captures the first few bytes then closes. All the code is within the Module1 Sub Main. Is there a compile setting or other property that I need to adjust?
