Win32 API - Equivalent To Making System Calls Abd And Library Calls In UNIX?

May 8, 2010

What the Win32 API is? I have looked around but no where really outlines what it is. Is it basically a set of procedures, outlined by Microsoft for programmers in order to get services from the operating system? In essence is it the equivalent to making system calls abd and library calls in UNIX? And yes I now Windows makes library calls too.

.net - Preserve Objects Between Wcf Calls?

Dec 13, 2010

This should be fairly basic, but say I have a Public property as local variable on my WCF service, and I set this in one call to the service. Is there a way to preserve that data for another call to the service? (Without writing the data to xml or a db, and re-referencing it or anything like that)

Executing the calls from the Winform:

Public Class ClientSideWinForm
Private proxy As ServiceReference.Client
Private Sub Client_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

Allow Calls From Unmanaged Code?

May 5, 2009

I have an application which has been succesfully installed on a number of different client machines.

The problem I now have is that I have been asked to allow third party applications, possibly written in a non .net language set to plug into my application and execute some of the code. Just a handfull of properties and half a dozen methods.

Now I can wrap up these properties/methods, make them public and have them in their own project which will be part of my solution but I have no idea where to go from here.

How do I make this portion of my application accessible to a third party application written in unmanaged code ?

Executing COM API Calls From SQL Trigger

Apr 2, 2012

I have a CRM application that I would like to programatically post new records and updates to, based on values in other tables getting inserted or updated. Problem is because of how this CRM app was designed I cannot use straight SQL insert/update SQL commands. This is because the database has some proprietary account#/record ID generation algorithm, and also writes to a log table using some pretty cryptic looking values.

The only way to ensure the integrity of the data is to use a the COM based API they provide. How can I send calls to this API from SQL Server code, I'm guessing a CLR user defined function? Can anyone point me to such tutorial on the web?

The updates I am making MUST be in real time, that is why I need to use a trigger that calls this app's API.

Function Calls To Unmanaged DLL From VB

Jun 12, 2009

I'm having some trouble finding the syntax for making function calls to unmanaged DLLs in VB.NET. Let's just assume there's a function "Connected" in unmanaged DLL "Connector.DLL". I want to call this function by creating an abstract function call to it.

I've seen some code out there that looks something like
[DllImport("Connector.DLL")]
Public Shared Function Connect(ByVal intPort)
But that syntax doesn't work for me.

Multithreading Or Delegates With WMI Calls?

Jul 12, 2011

I have a VBNET app to scan my Active Directory using WMI calls and return some basic informaiton such as Dell Model name, current user logged on, Dell Service Tag etc my issue is the app becomes unresponsive whilst it scans and i have to wait for it to finish looping before i can work with it, in the past a do events used to suffice

I think Multithreading is the way i may need to go, whats the best approach? I tried to use Delegates but it doesnt seem to have made any difference

below is my for next loop code that calls the functions, the last section "Private Sub Button1_Click" down is the Delegate code i attempted

.net - Control.Invoke Never Calls Delegate?

Oct 1, 2009

I'm working with the DevExpress XtraGrid control.I have a routine that goes thru and adds all the controls on the current form dynamically, and launches on a seperate thread the routine for a given control to initialize it to the value that will be displayed to the end-user. Some of the controls are displaying calculated values, and take some time to return their values, so that's why we are doing it on a seperate thread.

[Code]...

I'm using a similar snippet of code for any control properties that have to be updated, and all work fine. On the above code when the actual Invoke is called, it APPEARS that the thread just ends and never calls the delegate, and doesn't return to finish either.

Clean Up App And Deal With The Async Calls?

Mar 16, 2010

My app is basically talking to a device via RS232. I need to 'listen' to the data received and do certain things based on it, update labels, etc. When I started, I only had a couple cross-thread calls and I used JMC's example to get by that. Now my app is bigger and I am calling the ThreadProcSafe all the time. I am hoping there is an easier way so I don't have to create sub routines for every control. Here's the relevant parts of my code.

Private Sub StepperSerialPort_DataReceived(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.IO.Ports.SerialDataReceivedEventArgs) Handles StepperSerialPort.DataReceived
Dim ReceiveBuffer As String

Creating A Function That Calls Sql Storedprocedure?

May 27, 2011

I tried to search forum topics to find a tutorial that will guide me on how to achieve this however seem like most of the tutorials i were finding were confusing me more.With that being said here is what i have,Here is what I am trying to do [URL]that tutorial is exactly what I am trying to achieve however I do not understand what the supplierstableadpater, northwindtableadapters are. I can only assume that I am not doing exactly the same thing as that tutorial.

What I have is a simple sql storedprocedure that selects all employeedetails.And also another sql stored procedure that selects just a few columns from the employees table. On my frist page I am going to list all the employee names in a gridview and when they click the employee name it should take them to another page and show that employee's details. Seems like you have to use an object datasource to achieve this but is there an easier way to achieve creating a class that calls the 2 stored procedures that I have that i would be able to then link them with an objectdatsource?

Implement What Ada Calls Private Types?

Aug 26, 2009

Is there a way to implement what Ada calls Private Types?Specifically I want to define two ID types (internally simple integers), but in a way that are assignment and operator isolated (aka SUPER strict type checking)

I can get close with a class, but you cannot have

a) constant classes (or structures) or

b) have optional parameters of classes or structures

c) class copies require clones to avoid assignment side effect (a1=a2 becomes a1 = a2.clone())
