I am adding all of my files as resources into my project (so they will work on another computer) however, I have some videos that I added as a resource for playing with AxVLC and I can't seem to figure out how to get them to work. I'm getting an error :Error 1 Value of type '1-dimensional array of Byte' cannot be converted to 'AxAXVLC.AxVLCPlugin'.
View 7 RepliesIs there an easy way to edit the code below so that it copes (works the same) if the embedded resource is not a plain text file, but a compressed text file?
Dim tempList() As String
tempList = My.Resources.ENABLE.Split({Environment.NewLine}, StringSplitOptions.None)
For Each strWord In tempList
enableFullList.Add(New Words(strWord))
Next
I have seen System.IO.Compression but can't work out what to do, DeflateStream, GZipStream etc.
I'm working in this application in Visual Basic Studio 2010 I have a combobox where user select phone model and textbox where a text file is loaded when user select model, I added text files to the project resource because I don't want to put them in files in the root directory of my application
[IMG][/IMG]
what I need is a code to make text box load the text file wich have the same name of selected in combobox for example when user selct : CT-810 in combobox the text file with name: CT-810 must be loaded in the text box and so on for other combobox records
I have developed a VB.NET application that generates code in a specific format. It has a multitude of features and everything works great. I recently added the ability to save generated code to a text file as well as the ability to load those text files into the application. I am looking to add one last feature (perk). I want to include a bunch of pre-coded text files with the application, that new users can load and use immediately. As of right now I have the application creating the directory they will go in, but can't find anything on how to include the text files and have them placed in that directory. This application uses one-click deployment (in case that matters).

I would like to put some (image, folder etc ) in resources. However I am not sure how to do this.
I have put the .txt file, .iso image in resources (from my project) but unable to add blank folder.
This folder is referring to "sc1" folder in my codes.
sc.CaptureScreen.Save("sc1/" & imagename & ".jpg", System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg)
I do not know how to call this item in the codes using my resources (e.g. my.resources.pic.jpeg ?? )
The main reason I would like to do this is because when I publish the project, Upon clicking setup installation everything will be embedded together in respective folder instead of I add it manually.
My problem concerns ListboxItems in WPF using VB.net. I have a window.Resources attached to a TargetType ListboxItem:
<window.Resources>
<Style TargetType="{x:Type ListBoxItem}">
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="13.0"/>

Which seemed the most logical thing to do, but that didn't work.. This problem has been my concern for over a few hours now and it's the first one that made me come to Dreamincode to ask for a subtle hint.
In a VB project I can add a resource via the project properties resources tab, or I can right-click the project in the solution explorer, click add, then click add existing item. What are the differences?If I want to add a DLL file and include it as an embedded resource, do I have to add the file via both methods? Only one?
View 1 RepliesHow do I access resources in a .Net Web Project. I created a web project and then in App_LocalResources folder added a resx file "AstroWap.resx". Now how do I access values from that. The property My.Resources itself is not available.
View 3 RepliesI actually don't care so much about the name of the project as I do the .exe it builds. So I went into the project properties, goto the Application tab and change the Assembly name. But when I build, it loses the resources I've included. It builds w/o errors, but the icon's and pictures I've included are not in the program, and then the IDE gives me errors telling me it can't find those files.
I do have those resources in the program, their persistence is set to "Embedded in .resx" and their Build Action is set to "Resource". They work fine in the designer and show properly, and they build and show fine w/o changing the Assembly name.
My app bundles a set of VBScripts (UTF8 text files) into a VB.NET assembly. I used to embed the script code into the classes as String members, but this is proving to be a poor design. I want to include them as resources instead. What's the best way to add resources to the CompilerParams?
What I've got so far (excluding all the error checks):
Dim comParams As New CompilerParameters()
comParams.OutputAssembly = DLL_Path
comParams.ReferencedAssemblies.Add("System.dll")
[Code]....
The CompilerParameters contain fields for EmbeddedResources and LinkedResources, but from the examples I found so far these seem to pertain only to framework resources???

View 5 RepliesWith Visual Studio - 2008. I publish to my server. I have problem with the ClickOne, I cant find a way to include my DB connection and resources folder included in my project. It update correctly, but it does not include my resource folder a database connection. Maybe something with the rights to connect to the DB. Can can also see that every time I update my application, it make a new folder but it do not input my folders.
Any right way to do this:
Dim con As New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0;data source=" & "Resources/" & "myDB.mdb")

View 2 RepliesIf I have some resources added to a project, such as images or sounds, they are placed in Resources folder. Say I created a new image file with the same name and want to replace the one I added earlier.
Do I have to do this via Projects Properties Resources tab by removing the old one and adding the new one? Or can I simply copy and paste the new file in Windows Explorer into the Resources folder (replacing the old one)? Would it break the project? Does it matter if the project is currently open in Visual Studio?
I'm pretty sure this is something super easy, but how do i access a resource that is in a separate project using the expression syntax?I thought it would be like so:
<%$ Resources:SomeNamespace.Resources.Web, PleaseSelectAnImage %>
where SomeNamespace.Resources is the project that the resources are located in.
i normally just do <%= SomeNamespace.Resources.Web.PleaseSelectAnImage%> but i need to have this inside a control. <kw:SlickUpload ID="SlickUpload1" runat="server"
ValidExtensions=".png, .gif, .jpg"
InvalidExtensionMessage="<%$ Resources:SomeNamespace.Resources.Resources.Web, PleaseSelectAnImage %>" >
so when i just do what i normally do, it puts <%= SomeNamespace.Resources.Web.PleaseSelectAnImage%>" literally.my project name is SomeNamespace.Resources. the resource file name is Web. and the key is PleaseSelectAnImage.
