C# - Getting Started With Matrix3D (Silverlight)?
Jul 9, 2010
I need to figure out a way to project pictures in Silverlight (<Matrix3D/>) based on some predetermined variables that I have available to me.I have a need for the following projections:
Isometric
Orthographic
Oblique
Perspective
So, I have a number of variables provided to me like X, Y and sometimes Z. For example, this -
Type: Orthographic
X: 70°
Y: 10°
Z: 20°
somehow turns this -> into this -> and
Type: Isometric
X: 314.7°
Y: 35.4°
Z: 299.8°
into this ->
I have other information, like the coordinates of where the picture appears on a canvas, it's width/height, etc. if that information is useful too.

I have a LOB app written in VB.NET with a WinForms front-end and SQL back-end. After many months weighing up how to get onto the Web, I decided last month to use Silverlight 2. Now, Silverlight 3 Beta is out, but there is no end-user runtime.
Does anyone know when the runtime will be available for deployment of SL 3 apps onto client sites?
My dev timeline is about 3 months: should I persist with SL 2 and then u/g to SL3, or jump straight in to SL3?

Waaaaay back in 2003 I took a course called "Programming with the Microsoft .NET Framework (Microsoft Visual Basic .NET)" Then I attempted for the next year to get approval to take more courses, failed, and eventually gave up. Now, I'm being asked to write applications using VS 2008. I have, of course, forgotten everything I learned 6+ years ago, plus I'm sure things have changed. Plus we still don't have money for me to take any courses. my question to you is: can you recommend a free website, or a book I might find in my local library, that will give me a kick start into writing VB windows applications (database driven) and/or ASP.NET applications (also very database driven). I'm proficient in VB 3, 5, and 6, along with ASP classic using VBScript.... I just have forgotten pretty much everything I once might have known about .NET.

im new to this forum and to VB.NET, however over the next year I think I won't be getting a placement so I want to get as much programming experience as possible. I would basically like to learn VB.NET. Does anyone know a good site to explain its concepts and a compiler for it, which is compatible with a MAC.
Im sorry if you think this is a waste of space for asking but I'd rather download something recommended by people who frequently use VB.NET.

I want to know if there is a way to get each new process (what has been started) in a real-time manner (instantly). I tried until now something like:
1. Getting the number of opened/running processes
2. If the number is different from the previous check then the program is scanning each process (what is running) using a timer, each process has assigned its "pid" (using array) -- so if there is a new "pid" the process will be scanned -- else the process will be skipped. (scanning: getting its "object" path and creating a md5 signature etc.) This is working but is inefficient(very)...

I have been developing with VB6 for about 7 years now, and I think it is time I move on to VB.Net to future proof my skills.Not only that. I am learning C++, but that is beside the focus of this post.Anyway, So I installed the VS 2008 Professional, I didn't install all the Windows Mobile SDK stuff, Just Visual Studio, MSDN, and the sql server...
I do a lot of work with HTTP requests from within my applications, like building GET and POST requests and returning strings that are parsed and what not...I was using the winHTTP COM object in vb6 for the longest time, and I loved it... It was structured nicely and when Dimmed "with events" opened up a nice way of implementing progressbars, calculating download speeds, etc etc...
1) What is the .NET alternative of the winHTTP COM Object...
2) How do you dim objects withevents globally across a form class?
In vb6 I would dim my winHTTP object at the top of the form with events, and then I could implement all my progress bar code in the winhttp events that are exposed....Also then in each subroutine you then have to set = new winhttp.winhttprequest to create the new object, blah blah blah...

I have a small problem with my application. When the system starts up, the program starts with it, but runs hidden (registry key with paremeter). The program also has a GUI.I want it so that when the user clicks the desktop icon, it does not start a second instance of the executable, but instead reveals the currently running background process. Is that possible?i.e. when the application is started with the "-startup" paremeter, it loads a hidden form2, and closes form1. When the desktop icon is clicked, it loads form1, while form2 remains hidden.

I created a form which,through the input of a URL via a textbox, downloads a file from the internet. For example I write in the textbox [URL] and after I hit the download button the software starts downloading the file (the progress is shown via a progress bar). What about if I want to stop the download before the download is over? How can I do it? What should I write in the "Stop" button?

I'm creating a new Windows Service project from the template, following an MSDN article on how to do so (cross referenced with serveral others). Acording to it the template should be setting up a region " Component Designer generated code " which should contain code. However the entire contents of the code page is:

I'm having troubles finding a way to retrieve informations about which program started my own application. The situation is this: I have a VB .net application which launch another VB .net application (both made with the .net framework 2.0) using process.start(), the second application need to know which software or process started it, if it was started by another software and not directly by the user, and I can't access to the source code of the first application so there's no way I can send a specific command line to the second application.

I have searched the www but so far cannot see how to do it. Perhaps via a try/catch statement?
How can I test if a process can be started in vb before actually starting it, e.g. when I use process.start("<name>.exe") ....
but before doing that I would like to make sure that it will be callable.. is this possible at all? maybe by using some kind of My.Computer .FileSystem .FileExists ("<name>.exe") statement?

I have a project that needs to open a CSV file that is 3.7gb in size. It is data that was exported from a database (why on earth anyone would export it to ONE file, is beyond me)
Excel/Access can't open the file because it is more than 256 columns and greater than 65000+ rows. I was able to split the file into seperate files with 50,000 rows in each. I wan't to automate this and export only data by a specific state, and perhaps add it to a database or excel file, should the rows stay below the limit.
I found a project that splits the CSV file... perhaps I can just parse the data while splitting the file.

So, you've all probably seen Iron Man where Tony interacts with an AI system called Jarvis. Demo clip here (Sorry it's a commercial).I'm very familiar with C#, C++ and Visual Basic, but I am unsure what options I have available for me to program something like this. Ideally, I'd like to have it assist me while working on some projects by automating a few things.
After doing a bit of research, I saw that a lot of people where using apple script. Well, I'm a windows developer and I work on windows, SO, that won't work.Microsoft has a Speech SDK, but I hear that I can't program it to learn custom words... as in it just uses it's standard library. Is this true? What are the other limitations of speech recognition with the SDK? Is there something else then?
Also, which language would be better to use for a project like this? C# or VB?

I have a custom button in IE8 which starts up my program. Now what I wanted to do, was pass an arguement such as: 'myprogram.exe /ie'
From the IE8 button, and well my program will do rest from there. Now my program adds the button just fine, shows up fine, all that works. But each time i'd add an argument after my application path, IE8 would say it can't find the program. If you want to test this out, goto run, type in gpedit.msc, then 'User Configuration'->'Windows Settings'->'Internet Explorer Maintenance'->'Browser User Interface', and double click on 'Browser Toolbar Customizations'. And in the small window that pops up, is an option for adding custom buttons to IE. I was using this for testing purposes, since it was faster to edit a button here than in my program. When you add a button you choose the executable to link it to. But if you add any arguments after it, IE will simply not be able to find the program. Even if that same command works when you type it from 'run'.
So, now my question is, since apperntly you can't have any arguments in the button, is it possible to detect what executable starts your program? For instance, detect if iexplore.exe started up my program?

I have a WCF service being hosted in a Windows Service (using techniques discussed here) and it works great. I'm now writing a (VB.Net) frontend app that needs to call that service, but I don't want my users having to fiddle around with the services snap-in and starting the service manually. Can I write some code to ensure the Windows Service is started, or start it if it isn't?
Edit: OF course, I can ensure the Service startup is set to automatic, but it doesn't need to be running all the time, and even then the frontend app still needs to be sure the service is running and start it if it isn't.

I have amended the application manifest of my program to launch it when a file with a certain extension is clicked. This works OK but I can't get the filename. Apparently CommandLineArgs are not available in a click once deployment and I have tried using the StartUpEvent command line as well but it seems to be empty.
