Asp.net - Communication Between Multiple Web Applications Using SignalR
Oct 11, 2011
Application A (Bidding Interface) - A web page to allow multiple end-users to place bids on certain items.
Application B (Managing Interface) - A web page to allow a user (or could potentially be multiple users) to monitor/control the actions from Bidding Interface.
So when a user from Application A place a bid on a piece, I'll need a way to alert Application B that a bid has been placed. Then from Application B, should the user choose to accept the bid, I need to send an alert back to Application A (to update current price, increase bid etc...)
I have a c++ console application that has a variable, say, vardata. I want my vb.net application to access the content of vardata. I thought I can do that by saving vardata to clipboard and vb.net should get the clipboard text. The problem is that the content of vardata is changing 150 times/second and I am missing a lot of changes when vb.net application is trying to get clipboard text. Is there any ready function i can use to save the data in a memory space (c++ side) and access it from my vb.net application (vb.net side).
I've got a problem to make two applications to send text-data between themselves. The message is transmited without any problems, the awnser is received too. But, there is a lot of a "New line" char in the end of the string send/received on each side. I guess it's because of i'm readeing the full buffer; i've tried to remove all Chr(10) and Chr(13); I also tried to trim the string, but it didn't worked.
Here the code I use :
Client Side : Dim cl As New TcpClient cl.Connect("127.0.0.1", 2000) Dim str As NetworkStream = cl.GetStream
[Code]....
UTF8 works on 4 bytes, and when I read the stream and I put it into a buffer, if there is no char, the 4 bytes stay on a 0 value.
I am working on a project that is used for key broadcasting. Don't worry nothing illegal, I'm making a multibox application for world of warcraft. However I am having trouble when it comes to launching and manipulating other applications from another.
I have a desktop (XP) application and a CE app (Motorola MC9090) and I want to Scan few Barcodes with Motorola and then send the text to the application on PC using WiFi. I have no idea how to do it - (VB.NET preferred)
I am currently attempting to learn basic signalR so I downloaded the library with NuGet to an existing application to test it out.The existing app is written in VB (not sure if thats a problem or not)Error im receiving is "ticker is undefined" which from what I understand is the connection string.
I have a solution that currently has about 20 class libraries, and a dozen different web apps. Each web app shares a site-wide master page, as well as share js and css files.
I need to be able to build & deploy one app at a time, or occasionally update the entire suite. How is this possible with TFS and MSDeploy?
I have been working with Visual Studio 2005 for about a year and a half but the deployment task was never left to me. So now I'm being asked at my company to build a setup which will prompt to install up to 4 applications, which can be chosen by the user using checkboxes.
All of the 4 share the same dependencies, so I created a merge modules package for that purpose. But I still don't know how can I build a single setup to install these 4 applications.
I have an application which takes input on a local machine and sends it to a database stored on a server. I'd like to be able to deploy my application over a number of computers (all on the same network), all of them updating the same database (on the network server).First of all, will this be possible without putting together a completely new application to handle all connections to the database and sorting the entries?
I am currently writing an application in VB.NET that draws to a Microstation(MS) CAD application. Like Excel, MS has a robust COM object library that can be programed remotely. Hence, I am posting this in the VB Office Automation forum.In the case where the user invokes my program and there are multiple instances of Microstation(MS) open, I need to let the user determine which MS application instance they would like the program to draw to. It could be potentially catastrophic if the program draws to an unintended application/file.So my problem is this, I need to know how to convert an instance of the application that was found by enumerating through the GetProcessByName method in the Process Class, to an "Micros tationDGN. Application" object.I have read the responses to Post 1317219 by jprg. In a response to that Post, (Post 1317389) Mike_R replied;But if you want to actually manipulate the Excel instance via automation in order to create and save a new file, etc., then it's pretty close to impossible to convert an instance that you grab within via the Process class to an Excel.Application instance.
I am a vb6 enthusiast willing to try NET. I am confused by all the versions and the fact that limitations of the 'free' version are not spelt out. My requirement is to be able to convert vb6 applications (possibly, but don't mind a manual rewrite), to write applications (not for tablets or phones yet) that I can use myself and possibly publish to others. I would like to allow printed reports for my financial applications. I will have a small home network up soon but ability to operate on a network is not critical. I do NOT want to download a 'free' version and find that it is crippled one way or another, like allowing development but not publication.
Whether the 'free download' is OK, and which one (Express?), or point to a site where the versions are clearly laid out.
Is there a way to, when a parent application is opened up, that at the click of a button, or anything of designated event, that this parent application can open a secondary one?
What kind of objects should BLL and DAL use for communication - DataTable or List<Customer> (for example)? In first case, BLL logic should transform Customer object to DataTable and send it to DAL. In secod case, DAL layer should be aware of Customer class, which is in BLL layer. But originaly DLL references DAL and not opposite...
Should I put all classes into seperate assembly, which is referenced by all others (Common, BusinessObjects, ...)? In this case I could use Customer class in all my projects. Should I even bother to seperate DAL and BLL when I know, that only one BLL will use my DAL. In this case I could merge them together into one project. PS - I am reading about DataTables and a lot of people say that we shouldn't use them at all. What are better options? Maybe it is time for me to learn some ORM mapping tools :)
I have 2 projects (P1 and P2) in a VB2008 solution, with each project compiled to a separate EXE.P2.exe is started via a button on P1 and while P2 runs, certain aspects of P1 are disabled. When P2 closes, P1 needs to reactivate those disabled aspects.Question: How do I communicate with P1 from P2, seeing that they are 2 separate EXE files, even though part of the same solution?
I wanna make an application in which i have to make two computers communicate each other. For example when a customer enters, his information is feeded in the computer at reception, and then this information is sent to another computer at upper storey, where the application detects the incoming data and populates in the relevant form.
Is it possible to read out the contents of a page that has already be loaded into a webbrowser...say IExplorer...? On 'normal' windows programs there is a way to externally control a program and its contents. But on a page loaded in a webbrowser i can't find a way to get external control of its contents and buttons ect...So to put it simple:I have Iexplorer up and running showing me some content.Now i want to run another program that can read out that content in IExplorer, and lateron put some 'updated' content back.
Is there a best practice way to communicate between a service and a GUI? Both will be created by myself so I'm not wanting to communicate to a service which belongs to someone else.
I;m making an application (who ins't xD), anyways, I'm using some encapsulation objects to transport stuff to the BLL. i was wondering (and might be sound stupid, I know) what you guys think is better practice:Either use Objects for transporting lots of stuff (like a BLL object to transport all its attributes) Or-handle around Strings through the GUI and only create objects when strictly needed.
Another question that just popped my mind: I'm using a Validation class in the BLL in order to validate stuff like "This particular object is already mapped, error" or "This is not well formed", and throw exceptions, instead of boolean values, since I'm at BLL level. Do you guys use a Validation class or perform the validation from the object itself? The old "who's responsible" problem.
I am using serial port class from VB.net to communicate my hardware. Some times I may lost or get incorrect data. I am just wondering how to implement hardware flow control in Vb.net
in my code,im inputting a byte coming from Arduino board microncontroller..im sending character 'N' to com5, and the code above is fetching that data from arduino board..my problem is the output string on the textbox is <78> which is the ASCII equivalent of 'N' how will i convert that to what is really being sent by the board which is 'N'..
I made a device (it's a remote-control your computer thing). Is it possible to interact with it using USB & VB.NET? If so, how? I've looked around and it doesn't seem to be part of the framework, but maybe there's some API I could use? I could always use serial ports, but I don't really want this device to require a battery. Is it possible, and if not, is there another way I could do this?
I am currently using the code from this thread:Click Here Using the code how would i allow the user through the client to send a message to the server which specifies the user the message is intended for as well as the message. I know how to send messages as there is a function for that in the code supplied in the link.Though how do i associate usernames with each client? As i saw a username property has been created in the code but how do i use it for the purposes i want?
I also need to be able to test the username and password fields for a login system..
i'm creating a windows form to send/receive data to/from serial port.At first : i send the data as string to the serial port .Second: i tried to read the string again for test the successfull transmission , but i recieved empty string
