View 1 RepliesComputer Shutdown By Button?
Feb 23, 2011I've written a program which I propose to give a local club, which sadly may be'attractive' to pirates so I propose to build in some sort of anti-copying feature.My idea is to hide a file in a folder somewhere in the club's laptop, then on program start up I'll check to see if that file exists and if it's not there, which it's unlikely to be on a pirates machine, I'll flag up a message box saying that if they have a legitimate reason to install the program on a different machine they'll have to contact myself.By way of nuisance value, pressing the 'OK' button on the message box will cause the machine running, what I'm assuming is a pirated copy, to shut down.I've been looking at the VB.NET forum and MSDN for ideas as to how to achieve this and the general opinion seems to be:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Process.Start("shutdown", "-s")

ShutDown And Restart
Jun 11, 2010I am making a program that takes a time input from the user or a countdown amount and when that time comes it will shutdown or restart or log off the computer. I know how to make the timing code and everything else but i don't know how to shutdown or restart or log off.
View 1 RepliesVS 2008 Log Off - Shutdown - And Restart
Dec 24, 2009I'm trying to create a way for the User of my application to Log Off, Shutdown, or Restart the PC.
The idea is that User can more quickly access these options from my application and if they choose, force these actions instead of waiting for the OS to respond.
Here's how I'm trying to do it:
CODE:
Log Off works just fine. It's shutdown and restart that doesn't work. From the research that I've done, the Consts seem fine and the function obviously works correctly because Log Off works. I am running the application as an administrator, so that should affect it.

The problem i have found (as displayed below) is using oClosingEvent.CloseReason the return types provide no further information other then the WindowsShutDown constant (the others are obviously irrelevant in this case).

View 9 RepliesApplication.Restart With Different Command Line Arguments?
Jan 27, 2010Is it possible to restart a VB.NET application, but with different command line arguments than it originally had? Here is the challenge. I want to write a single instance application. If the second instance has the same CL args as the first, then the built-in behavior is fine (second instance never opens, e.BringToForeground=True brings 1st instance to foreground, everything is great). But if the second instance has different CL args, then I would like the first instance to close and the second instance to start. However, once you mark a VB.NET app as "single instance only", it appears that you can never get the second instance. I think: OK, fine, I can just restart my first instance from the StartupNextInstance event. But how do I use the new command line arguments from the second instance? The Restart() method does not take CL args that I can see.

View 4 RepliesTCP Protocols - Sending Command To Specific Port On Same Computer
Mar 10, 2011I am working on writing a program that needs to send a command to a specific port on the same computer, I have that working fine. There is another piece of software running that is listening to that port for some commands (read on).
Dim myTcpClient As New TcpClient
myTcpClient.Connect("127.0.0.1", 61225)
Dim networkStream As NetworkStream = myTcpClient.GetStream()
However when I try to send a command I get no response...
Dim outStream As Byte() = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("0x33")
networkStream.Write(outStream, 0, outStream.Length)
networkStream.Flush()
I have been given a list of protocols that I need to send to that port. What I have been told is that the size (in byes) is 1 and the value is "0x33" with no parameters. I am completely new to sockets and sending data through tcp.
