I'm creating this thread simply because I can't figure out how to compile my .sln file extension project. I've basically created a Win32 application (not cmd.exe dependable) in my current project, but I just can't compile it.I can't really find a compile button?

View 2 RepliesI have a simple extension which makes all chars in incoming string uppercase. I created this extension as DLL file (with namespace "Extensions"). But when I make reference to this DLL, then this namespace doesn't appear in Imports, hence I can't use my extension. Here's question: why I can't put extension into separate assembly?

I have a VB6 Project which I need to build in VS2008.
i tried to open vbp file in VS2008, it opened a VB Upgrade Wizard and created a new folder with in my VB6 Project Folder.
At this point I am completely stuck.
Is there anyway to build VB6 in VS2008 or Do we have any free tools to convert VB6 to VB.Net.

I have a VB.NET solution (call it S1) which produces a .vb file (say File1.vb) to be compiled and then included in another solution (S2). S2 is a console app which I want to run from a cmd prompt, not VS. My plan is to shell out from S1 to run a batch file to do the compile and then copy the .dll file, overwriting the old one in S2 (then I can run S2 in a separate operation). Here's the batch file for the compile:

I'm using Visual Studio 2005 (college only has 2005 so..) and I have a very important program to write for college.My problem is, every time I try to compile I get the error: "Error while trying to run project: Could not load file or assembly "Program" or one of its dependencies. The given assembly name or codebase was invalid." We're talking a very simple program - I've only been learning for a few weeks.

View 3 RepliesI have been developing a Visual Basic 2010 .NET GUI based control application that has been growing over the last six months into quite an albatross. Suddenly, I have reached a brick wall where I cannot even edit a text label in the GUI without the following exception at compile time (debug) :
InvalidOperation Exception was unhandled
An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: Index and count must refer to a location within the string.
Parameter name: count
This is entirely code independent - it happens if I simply drag a new control onto the GUI without even any code behind it - Once it happens the project is hosed - even if I undo or remove what I did.I have reinstalled VB from scratch on a new computer, and same problem. I am using Windows 7 and this happens with VB Express, Even with a trial version of Visual Studio Ultimate. I am completely stuck.

I've been passed a solution that has a vb.Net 2.0 project that references to a .Net 3.5 library. The library compiles with out problem but the vb project does not. It complains of missing objects which are in the library which are correctly added in the imports. Also I see a yellow yield sign next to the reference library also when I add the reference it complains of the framework version difference. Any help is apritiated. Also I'm using VS10. Imported the projects with no errors. A colleague has this working on VS9.
View 1 RepliesWhen I try to compile my VB.NET web project, I get an error that reads:[PropertyName] is not a member of '[Namespace.Class]'The class referenced is part of a dll that the project references. The property definitely exists in the referenced class, and its access modifier is Public. What's more, if I update the reference, or just remove it and add it back, the error goes away: the intellisense shows my property -- all is fine.. that is until I try to compile again. Then the error returns. I've even restarted Visual Studio to no avail. What is going on?[UPDATE]After Will's comment, I've changed the namespace to something I am absolutely sure is unique. Now, I am getting more compiler errors of the same genre. The compiler is not recognizing some of the overloads although they are right there in intellisense. Weird!

I wrote some string extension methods in a VB assembly and am unit testing them from a C# project. However, C# acts like it cannot see the the extension methods, when other VB projects reference the VB assembly they have no problem. Both the VB assemebly and the C# test project are targeting .Net 3.5. Is there a way around this?

I am trying to do something like this:
I've a function which returns List(Of AppItem):
Function GetAppItems() As List(Of AppItem)

I'm working on a larger VB application (framework v3.5) where the compile time continues to get slower and slower the larger it grows. It currently takes about 7 minutes to compile just the extensions project. We have other similar projects in C# that don't experience the slow compile time.

I am using VB 08 running an openfiledialogue wanting to get the result of the GDS file (*.gds) to be the default extension at the drop down menu instead of All file when the openfiledialogue box opens.
I coded it with:
OpenFileDialogue.Filter = "GDS File(*.gds)|*.gds|All files|*.*"
but the results i get in the open file dialogue box remains as all files being in the drop down menu as the default file extension. How to i set it to ".gds" format?
I have File Like "Sample.bak" and when I compress it to be "Sample.zip" I lose the file extension inside the zip file I meann when I open the compressed file I find "Sample" without any extension.
I use this code :
Dim name As String = Path.GetFileName(filePath).Replace(".Bak", "")
Dim source() As Byte = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(filePath)
Dim compressed() As Byte = ConvertToByteArray(source)
System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes(destination & name & ".Bak" & ".zip", compressed)
Or using this code :
Public Sub cmdCompressFile(ByVal FileName As String)
'Stream object that reads file contents
Dim streamObj As Stream = New StreamReader(FileName).BaseStream

I need to compress the file without loosing file extension inside compressed file.
I am noob to vb.net so be easy , i know in vb6 if you compile your project with p-code instead of native it can make a empty project 12kb, if i compile an blank project in .net it is 15kb with "Enable optimizations" enabled. is there anything else to make projects smaller?
View 3 RepliesI'm trying VB.Net for the first time, and I must say, after spending two hours pulling my hair out (literally!) and trying one thing after another, I am severely disheartened. I just want to compile a simple .vb file.
I used notepad to create a helloworld file. Then my problems started. The book I'm using told me to use a command prompt, and enter:
vbc helloworld.vb
No dice, though. The vbc command was kicked out by the command prompt. I installed Microsoft Visual Basic 2008, and tried again. No dice. Double checked to make sure I had all my updates - check, but still nothing. So I just went ahead and double clicked the the helloworld.vb file. It displayed the text, but still didn't compile, and it wouldn't even allow me to debug it.

Recursive File Copy based on file extension. I have a single root folder that contains numerous folders that contain a few files that I want to extract. For this example, lets state that I want to copy all �txt� extensions and put them into a repository folder.
Example:
\root
\root\Folder1\
\root\Folder1\abc.txt
[code]....
I need to get the extension part of a file path for example,
c:me.jpg
i need to return the ".jpg" to a string. Im sure this is easy enough, im guessing i need to get all the text after the last .
I have used Resource Hacker to extract all the files from an .exe so I could translate the menus right (translating in the program shows me wrong characters). Now I want to compile these files into an .exe file.How can I do that?
