Is there any code conversion tool for converting Delphi to Visual Basic?
View 3 RepliesI've been given this simple VB application and library which I'm told can open a door/turnstyle attached to the printer port at 0x378 base address.'Inp and Out declarations for port I/O using inpout32.dll.

how to declare the library functions and what to declare the variables as (&H378 is obviously not an integer)
I am using Delphi 7 to try to use a .DLL created by VB.net. When I run TDUMP.EXE on the .DLL, it reports no exported data available. The VB.Net .DLL uses "RaiseEvent" to return data.[code]

View 3 RepliesI've designed a Windows Service in Visual Basic 2005 that needs to call some functions from a DLL written in Delphi 5. If I try to add this DLL as a reference, I get this error:
"A reference to 'C:ProjectsServiceProMDPUpdateServiceMessageStubApplicationSPHost.dll' could not be added. Please make sure that the file is accessible, and that it is a valid assembly or COM component."
I assume that it is just not possible to add this DLL as a reference to my VB2005 project, since the DLL was written in an old version of Delphi, correct? This isn't a big deal, as I can just use the DllImport function from System.Runtime.InteropServices, but if it is possible, adding it as a reference would be preferred.
My other question is, how would you be able to call a function from the DLL using DllImport, if the function you are trying to call takes a Delphi record data type as a parameter (if this is possible)? If possible, would I need to pass each field in the record separately or would I be able to define a structure in my VB app that mirrors the record definition in the Delphi DLL and pass that? Or, would it be best if I just created another function in the Delphi DLL that took various string/integer/boolean/etc. parameters that I could call from VB that would then call the original function in Delphi? I tried searching the internet for this specific question, but I couldn't find anything that looked useful.

I've gotten a DLL from a supplier. Most functions I can call just fine, but some crash (System.ExecutionEngineException, doesn't even do with a try-catch...). The thing is that the ones that work are called with simply types, and the ones that crash have a type/class/structure in it.The documentation states how to call with "Visual Basic" without stating version. Here's how it looks..[code]I did figure out to use "Integer" in stead of "Long" and the strings needed some work but are fine now.Now... The "Type" doesn't exist in VB.NET so what should I do. Tried a class but that didn't work.I can call the DLL with "bad" data and get a good reply, eg "this and that is wrong with the input", but when I set that straight it crashes. I suspect that it's when it starts to write in the memory allocated by me and that does not match what the DLL expect.
BTW when I look at the class I made, I can see that - at least VS - lists the members in an alfabetical order. Is that how it's arranged in memory and could that be the problem if the order is different from the one expected by the DLL. I would epect that the total size was the same irrespective of order, so the problem would arise when I try to read the data and I would get junk.

I've got some functions I need to call that are in some DLL files that have been written in Delphi 5 in a VB.NET 2005 application. I'm able to use the DllImport function to access the functions just fine; however, I'm having an issue with the Delphi string data type and passing it to and from the .NET application.
[Code]...
It takes two string parameters and one double. I can call this function from VB.NET just fine, but it will error as soon as it tries to use one of the string variables (so in this case, when it passes them to another function) and I've found that the string values in Delphi are junk when they've been passed to .NET. I'm guessing that the string objects behave and/or are encoded differently between .NET & Delphi 5, and that I have to apply some sort of Marshaling to the function parameters in .NET, but I've tried all of the different types of marshaling and nothing has worked. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find anything about this issue on the internet.
Does anyone know how I can call this Delphi function from .NET and have it pass the string values in a manner so that they won't be corrupted when stored in Delphi?
I have a Delphi written DLL that exposes some interfaces to a vb.net application.
The interfaces inherit from IUnknown (but this could be changed if required), simplified example:
IWindow = interface(IUnknown)
['{E9A11D0B-8A05-4CBA-83FA-C5CC6818DF6E}']
function GetCaption(var Caption: PChar): HRESULT; stdcall;
end;
[Code]....
Now I want to transfer a collection of IWindow to vb.net, and in the vb.net application I want to be able to loop through it with a for in loop.
I read that it's possible using IEnumerable/IEnumerator but I don't quite understand how to implement them. Are there any good tutorials about this, specifically showing the declarations on both side? Example code would be great.
Please note that I prefer not create a com dll that should be registered and imported. Currently I export a function that enabled me to obtain an interface.
I have a Delphi program that communicates with a vb.net dll that I created. The vb.net dll communicates with a Fluke scope meter via an RS232 connection. I have created a program that communicates correctly via RS232, giving me the anticipated value. Though, when I package this up as a dll and access the dll from my Delphi program I always receive a value of "1", rather than the value I was expecting (most cases a value in and around 240).I know that my delphi program is definitely communicating correctly with the dll and that my dll is definitely communicating with the scope meter

This is the Delphi code I'm trying to convert to .net:
s1 := Copy ( s1 , 1,x - 1) + Copy(s1, x + 1,Length(s1));
I tried:
s1 = s1.Substring(x - 1, 1) + s1.Substring(s1.Length, x + 1)
But I get error's when the index is out of range. in Delphi it works fine.
Added one line to convert..
s2 := s2 + chr(3);

In Delphi when we needed to allow the system to finish painting an object or something like that we could add a processmessages that would then let the system finish what it was doing before going on with the code.This was always handy when we wanted to show a message like "Please wait"before the start of a lengthy process.So then. What is the equivalent way of doing this in VB.
View 1 RepliesI have generated a component in Delphi 2007 Code Gear and I need to migrate it to .NET to be used by VB.NET platform.I generated an ActiveX dll but I have been told that only the declaration of the class is visible in .NET.Actually the component I have generated is inherited by another component of which I have only the .dcu files. My new component is exactly similar as the parent one except from that I have overridden the constructor create.I wonder why the .NET, although it accepted the component, it did not provide the inherited properties, methods etc.

I've been looking for some programming languages, and I've read about the basics of Python and C++, but I'm more interested in Visual Basic But! Everywhere I look, I only find tutorials about how to use MS's Visual Basic Express and stuff, not how to code, not tutorials about the code syntax, how to declare variables and these essential things.Does anyone here has a good tip about learning the basics of VB?

View 8 RepliesI am trying to polish up a program a program that I have converted from a Windows Form in to an ASP.NET Web Application. I have several questions:
1.) I have a drop down box where users can select their variables, but users can also enter their variables manually into various text fields. What I want is for the drop down box to show a string like "Choose Variables" when ever the user enters their variables manually. I want this to happen without having to reload the page.
2.) In the Windows Form version of this application I had a RichTextBox that populated with data (line by line) after a calculation was made. I used "AppendText" in my Windows Form, but that is not available in ASP.NET, and neither is the RichTextBox. I tried to use just a text box but that isn't working right.
