I'm following an article (here) and stuck on the following:"Once you have created this class and compiled it, to use it in an ASP.NET Web application, start by adding it to the Web application's References folder."
Ok, so do i now need to compile my vb class file into a .dll and reference it from the BIN folder? If so how do i compile the vb file? I'm running VS 2005 .net 2.0
I have Crystal Reports 2008 installed on my win7 laptop but when i go to insert references from my application settings the CrystalDecisions references are missing and im not able to find them. Note: they do exist in my "c:windowsassembly" folder.
View 3 RepliesOver and over i keep getting stuck on the idea of adding references to a project. I was looking about visual studios 2010, i clicked the project menu tab, and then scrolled to add reference. When i would click on it, it would bring up a large list to choose from. So, my issue is as follows. I am told to reference via my compile error message a few items. I thought i found the elements i was looking for and pressed OK. When i would try to run, it would still give me the errors.
What am i doing wrong? Am i not doing something correct?
here is my error code, and i looked it up, but for some reason, as stated above, i must not be referencing correctly?

View 10 RepliesI am using CompilerParameters to dynamically compile code... The problem is when I use:
cp.ReferencedAssemblies.Add(CompilerPath & "est.exe")
to add a reference to test exe ... (where CompilerPath is the full path name)
Compiler Path is not the Compiler Application Path
I get an error when compiling stating that:
vb
"Could not load file or assembly 'test, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."
If I put it in the test.dll in the "compiler apps" path and then call ReferencedAssemblies.Add with the full path it works.

View 1 RepliesSo I've been using some code to generate directories and such in a custom treeview, but am looking to expand upon this idea. While it's not using recursive functions, and only calls functions when expanding levels, I'm not quite sure how to put some of these together.find a way to just search through all folders on the PC. If the folder contains audio files, that folder is than added to an array (searching a folder for audio files and adding that folder to an array is done). It's just recursivly searching all folders on the PC.Here is the code I've been using for the treeview (I'm not sure if it can be adapted):
Public Function ListAllDrives() As String()
Dim arDrives() As String
arDrives = Directory.GetLogicalDrives()[code].....

View 7 RepliesI have this VB ASP.NET Web Service Application project running VS 2005. I'm trying to add references. To do so I click on the "Properties" icon in the Solution Explorer window which presents me with a window to add/update/remove references. I click "Add", I select the reference I want and then "OK". Lo en behold, NOTHING! It simply won't add references (I tried adding several different ones). Specifically I'm trying to add the System.Configuration assembly.

In my VS2010 VB project I have a lot of external references to DLLs, to the point that organization has become a major headache and I'm wondering if I am going about it the wrong way. My assembly references include common redistributables (SQL Server Compact 3.5 SP1, ReportViewer 2010 SP1, DataVisualization, as well as some useful 3rd party dlls from CodeProject and CodePlex.
Currently, I am copying each DLL into a 1st level folder (/dll_lib) under my named project folder (under the solution folder), and adding the reference from that path. However, I see that Visual Studio copies the DLLs to various other locations (/bin/debug or /bin/release) in my project when I build the project or solution, and some of the 3rd party DLLs come with instructions to copy them manually to /bin.
What is the "best practice" for where to put the DLLs? Can I just put all of them under /bin and let the build event copy to /bin/debug or /bin/release as required? Should I try to force a single reference path for the dlls in the project output?

View 1 RepliesI have a small application that creates users in the AD. It adds the users fine, and creates them a home directory. My problem is with granting the user permission to the home directory and is two foldFirstly the code detailed below adds the user to the folder, but because the account is newly created it displays as the SID rather than the name, not such a big deal, but sometimes the code fails as the replication has not caught up and the user isnt found. I beleive the answer here is to use the SID rather than the users name to add permissions, however I am not sure how to retrieve and store this when the account is created using directory services. Secondly and more frustrating is that once the user is added to the folder ACL their permissions are all blank.
Try
Dim Dinfo As New DirectoryInfo(Directory)
Dim DS As DirectorySecurity = New DirectorySecurity()
Dim Rights As FileSystemRightsFileSystemRights = FileSystemRights.Modify

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.
