I'm writing a program in VB 2005 Express Beta 2. In one section I allow the user to repeatedly access a resource file that was created using a ResourceManager object. Each time the user is done with the section I use a ReleaseAllResources statement to close the connection to the resource file.Repeatedly calling this subroutine does not appear to cause a problem. However, I just wrote another subroutine which allows the user to write certain choices and results from the application to a file on disk. I create both a filestream object and a streamwriter object to write to the file. Each time the routine finishes, I invoke the close method for the streamwriter object followed by the close method for the filestream object to make sure that I have written everything in the buffer and closed the connection to the disk file.In some way that I do not understand these two routines (the ResourceManager routine and the file writing routine)conflict with each other, generating the exception described in the subject line of this message.
Error embedding Win32 manifest: Manifest File 'C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727default.win32manifest' cannot be found.

My click-once app has english and spanish content. In development, it runs fine with the two resource files I have - named multilingual.en-US.resx & multilingual.es-MX.resx accordingly. When I publish it looses these resources for referencing.The files reside in the root directory for the app.
I have a class library that is referenced by several other class libraries along with the main program. About two weeks back, I made a change to one of the classes in that base library, which is used as an argument for some events. Since that time, I have been testing code. Today, after a couple more tests, I started getting this exception. It is indicating a field is missing, which was renamed in that change about two weeks ago. The exact code that is raising the exception is code that I have run a couple dozen times in the intervening time, and it has always worked.I have tried everything I can think of, including deleting the bin and obj folders of every module that could be in any way related to this issue, such that the whole thing was rebuilt. I have removed the references and re-added them. Nothing worked. Code that has run fine for weeks has decided that it wants a version of an object that has not existed for weeks.
This problem arose immediately after a different problem, so the two might well be related. The other problem was that, while stepping through code, the IDE decided that one of the code pages was different from when it was last loaded. I get that a fair amount, and solving it is fairly routine. It generally means that I am stepping through code in a dll, and inadvertently tried to fix a bug in that code, rather than in the dll itself. Now it no longer matters. I can't get to that code page, nor can I get to anything else in that dll. It is acting like it has sponaneously decided to revert two weeks back in time, and use that source code for debugging, despite any attempt I make to bring it up to modern times.
It is possible to catch an exception and throw a new exception which wraps the first exception as an inner exception: [URL] Also, if I call a function and it throws a certain error, but I catch it, will the calling code's catch handler execute? If so, and it is of a higher exception type, is this not wrapping the exception? eg I can throw exception ex of type IndexOutOfRange, log it but rethrow, catch a higher up exception and do something, or I can throw a new exception and wrap an inner exception like:
I need to refer to some strings using an "indirect string" in the registry. It should be in this form:
@filename,resource
MSDN: "If the resource value is zero or greater, the number becomes the index of the string in the binary file. If the number is negative, it becomes a resource ID."How can I find out either of these numbers for my resources that only have names in VB? I also need the ID/index for the exe's icon.
I've been using ClickOnce for about year now (and regretting it), here my latest problem.I've deployed my app on about 20 PCs, and they working fine apart from one, it won't update to the latest version, it gets to about 25% and then says it can't continue, the details suggest for one of the DLL files: The manifest may not be valid or the file could not be opened. Once again, this does not happen on the other PCs.Heres what I've done so far:uninstalled completely, deleted the cache (app folders in the users profile), ran mage.exe -cc to make sure, but still no change.It also says the xxxxxx.dll is not a valid portable Executable (PE) file... but it seems to be on the other PCs ?So, before I format the hard drive and re-install windows
I have used Express for a while and am running the 2010 trial full version at the moment. So I am pretty new to all the tools in the full version, and I am building my first dll that I need to embed a manifest in.If I add a strong name to a support dll I get this message
xx.dll is a strong-name signed assembly and embedding a manifest invalidates the signature. You will need to re-sign this file to make it a valid assembly.If I don't sign it I am told it is unabale to emit assembly because my support dll doesn't have a strong name.I found the post below in the c++ archives, and the thread sounded like what I was running into. I can't seem to find where to access Linker.
I have a small project that simply copies some downloaded files from one directory to another. It is actually updating another program. The program is in the Program Files directory, therefore I need to elevate in Vista to requireAdministrator. I went to properties, clicked the UAC button, made my changes, compiled, and...no manifest file is created.
I've build a small web app for the iPad which I was hoping to be able to run offline by using the manifest cache but I can;t get it to work.I am serving the cache-manifest file as a MVC view and setting the content type to text/cache-manifest. The manifest get's processed but doesn't add any items to the cache. Using Firebug I've tried to view the window.applicationcache but it's empty. Must be missing something obvious!The head of my HTML page looks like this
[code]...
And this is the Manifest, I've tried without relative paths and still can't get it working.

The clickonce manifest expired for my application and now will not let me publish the application. I can create a new certificate with no problem but i was reading that i will have to uninstall the application from all the machines. but i publish my application as an Online application, so will i still need to uninstall the application or does that only apply for Offline applications?
I want to execute autoit script using vb.net in vs 2010. While executing it keeps prompting. Is it possible to embed a manifest file in a class lib type project in vb.net. As currently I cant see any option to add a manifest. How to disable that prompt to occur while executing a script from code.
I've been having an error with my Visual Studio 2008 with .net framework 3.5 Sp1. I am creating a project, and it would run properly until after a while when I try debugging the project I would get a error message that says: "Error while trying to run project: Could not load file or assembly 'Name_of_Project' or one of its dependencies. The module was expected to contain an assembly manifest."
Also the .exe file that it creates in the bindebug folder gives and error that says: "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc000007b). Click OK to terminate the application." These errors after a format of the machine would disappear for awhile but not indefinitely.
I have a resource file that I include in my shared code library that has all of my re-usable classes in it (all the resources go into their own namespace). Now, what is the best practice regarding resources... should I include them in the same DLL, or should I have a seperate resource DLL and/or are there any benefits from seperating them out into their own file.
I am using source safe to maintaine my code.Recently I copied my code to another machine.But everytime i build my project i am getting below error:Problem generating manifest. Could not load file or assembly
'D:WorkingFolderProjectSubFolderobjReleaseSubFolder.exe.manifest' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.When i check above manifest file is empty (0k).I tried rebuilding (after cleaning solution) , also tried with copy pasting previus manifest file content.None of above solution worked.
I've got a VB .NET application that has an auto-updater that updates the exe and manifest files of the application when it finds a new version. For some reason when I update those 2 files, it also clears the user settings, even though Im not replacing the exe.config file.
I have a VB2002 program that works. When I run it in VB2008, it updates, and runs and debugs until I shut down. When I try to start it up again from the updated SLN, or try to run the .exe in the BIN folder, I get the message "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect.
I checked the error logs and it says there is a syntax error in the first line of the vhost.manifest file in the BIN folder. The first line is the xml declaration and it includes the parameter standalone = "yes".
When I put the error message into Google I only get references to Visual C++ compiled programs running on machines without the C++ redistributable dll. That doesn't seem to apply here at all, since I have the VB 2008 express edition installed on this
So i created resource file New --> new file --> Native Resource Template Then added icons with custom id, like "x", "u_100", .. so i understand, what the files (in my case icons) is.. And i saved as 32-bit resource file (*.res) So i have a question, how can i use these files inside of resource file in my apps? i know how to add icons in to my app.. Me.Icon = New Icon(C:/icon.ico)
I have a large project where we have 2-3 dll projects that are converted from VB6 to VB.NET. We have fixed all the issues that caused compilation errors, and most of obvious issues in running, so now we have basically a program up and running. The exe is created from scratch in VB.NET, using a lot of functionality from the converted dll's (including GUI forms). What I wonder is when I run the program in debug mode, I get a bunch of warnings in the "Immediate Window" saying:
A first chance exception of type 'System.Exception' occurred in Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll
...and some of other type (but most of them in Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll).I was wondering if this is common in projects converted from VB6, or if it is caused by bad design in our code...
