Defaulting A Reference's Copy Local To False?
Jan 11, 2010
Is there a way to default the Copy Local property of references that I add to my projects? I figure there has to be some sort of method since adding a reference to a VB componentdefaults to False. (for example, start a project as a class library and then adda reference to System.Windows.Forms, it will default Copy Local False.) Is that somethingin the DLL's settings or configuration that I could replicate in my DLLs to force that

I have a VB.NET project which references a dll of another program. dll file location is something like "C:Program FilesAppNameAppName.dll" and on my project's references tab the dll's path shows this. When the copy local property is true, everythings works fine. When it is false, I get a runtime error saying dll cannot be found. The other program is a restricted access application and I can not distribute the dll with my project. How can I force my project to look for dll under "C:ProgramFilesAppName"? I didn't have this issue with VB6.0.

is this safe (I know it works, but is it safe)? Is it returning a reference to a local variable, wich falls out of scope as soon as the function returns?
Public
Function myfunc() As String
Dim strXml As String

I have an application that that uses process.start. It works fine on my development machine...but not on an installed machine....at least not for a local file. The following illustrates my problem...the reference to the url works fine and every time. However, the reference to the local file may work the First time but on any following attempts will close the application with a WindowsApplication1 error. Since it can find the file occasionally it is not a file problem.

How does the GC dispose objects created in the following 2 scenarios?
1)
Private Function DoSomething() As Boolean
Return New DatabaseManager().Insert()
End Function
2)
Private Function DoSomething() As Boolean
Dim mngr As New DatabaseManager()
Return mngr.Insert()
End Function
In Option 1, I don't create local variable to hold the reference of the object. In Option 2, I hold the reference in local variable.What option is better and why? (if any)

I have a text file on a website that I have the direct URL address to. For example, http://www.example.com/thisFile.txt .
I would like to copy it to a predefined path on the local machine. For example, C:Documents and SettingsAll Users .
What can I use to copy the file from the URL to the predefined path on the local machine. A simple CopyFile doesn't seem to handle URL addresses.

I want to copy a file from a UNC path (ex: \comnamedirnamefilename.txt) to a local destination (c:outputdir)
I have no compile errors, but when I run it, it throws an exception (System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException). I'm absolutely sure the destination existst (it's referencing the destination directory). I've tried doing it with system.io.file.copy(source,dest)and my.computer.filesystem.copyfile(source,dest). Same result either way.

I can reference the local (generic) data directory for an SQL file as follows:
Dim
T01Database As SqlCeConnection =
New SqlCeConnection("Data
Source=|DataDirectory|Test File.sdf")
I get a "file not found" error when trying the same syntax for referencing an Excel file:
Dim
T01Workbook As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook
= T01Application.Workbooks.Open("|Data Directory|Test File.xlsx"
)
correct syntax for referencing an Excel file in this manner?

We have an app that tracks .DOC and .PDF files (and possibly other file extensions). It stores copies of them on a network share. I want to give the ability to the user to allow them to click the file in a listview, for example, and have that file open in WORD or ADOBE or whatever program is associated with that file type.

We have upgraded our project from Visual Studio 2008 to Visual Studio 2010 without any issues until now. Our project contains a folder call Libraries which contains different versions of Oracle ODP.NET DLL's as well as different versions of Telerik DLL's. Our project contains references to one of the versions of each. The problem is once we remove the reference and re-add it by browsing to the new version, again inside the Libraries folder inside the project, it adds the reference, but to the same version we just removed. We can even copy the DLL to our desktop, remove the reference and add to the new one on our desktop and it still will point to the Libraries folder version???. The only we we can actual change the reference to the new DLL is by manually changing the path in the .vbproj file, which is obviously not going to work for us. The same behaviour worked perfectly in VS 2008. We switch our references quite often, when new versions come out, but also far more often to QA different versions of ODP.NET and Telerik Control DLL's, so manually editing the .vbproj file is becoming quickly cumbersome. If I browse to a specific version at a specific path, Visual Studio should ALWAYS do what I'm telling it to do..
I did some seaching and came across a few other people with the same issue. This better not be as designed and if it's a bug, which I believe it to be, when will it be fixed?[URL]..

When I use:
File.Copy(strRemoteFolder, strLocalFolder)
I get an UnauthorizedAccessException with the following message: "Access to the path ... is denied."In .NET, how do I copy a file from a remote computer that requires authentication to my local machine? I understand that I'm going to need to supply a username and password in some fashion, but I don't know how to supply that information via an API in .NET.

I have a program that must copy a file to 3 locations, the local hard disk, a USB drive, and a network location. I have the file (about 70mb) loaded into a byte array. My quesion is, since I'm not actively modifying the byte array, can I impliment a form of multithreading where all 3 threads read the same byte array at the same time?

I'm creating a WPF application in VB.NET with the 3.5 Framework. (If you provide an example in C#, that's perfectly fine.)
In my project I have a Template for an MS Access database. My desired behavior is that when the users clicks File-->New, they can create a new copy of this template, give it a filename, and save it to their local directory.
The database already has the tables and some starting data needed to interface with my application (a user-friendly data editor)
I'm thinking the approach is to include this "template.accdb" file as a resource in the project, and write it to a file somehow at runtime?

I'm currently stuck on an issue regarding declaring an array of type short in a structure and having it default to 'nothing' rather than '0' after ReDim.'Declaring array and setting it's initial size
Private Structure Totals_T
Dim sTot_Desc As String
<VBFixedArray(10)> Dim iTot_Cnt() As Short
Public Sub Initialize()
ReDim iTot_Cnt(10)
End Sub
[Code]...
When calling m_Totals(0) the arrays returned have 10 records in the arry with sTot_Desc and iTot_Cnt having values of nothing in all records. When I ReDim m_Totals both the variables I declared in the structure(sTot_Desc and iTot_Cnt) are declared as nothing, it's fine for the String but I need the Short I declared to be declared as '0', which is what I thought happens when you ReDim. Can anyone see what's going on here and why it's declaring my variables as 'nothing' rather than defaulting to '0' for the short and ""/nothing for the string?

I'm using a NumericUpDown control with a Minimum set to 10 (using for font size setting). When it is changed, it is bound to an Application setting and saved. On Form Load, I am attempting to set the value of the NumericUpDown control to the value stored in that setting (14 for example). No matter what though, it doesn't use the setting's value, it uses the value of the "Minimum" property of the NumericUpDown control.

How can I search the local disk for a file type and copy the full path to a new location. I am trying to write a backup program that will copy all pst files to the server while maitaining the structure, so if there is a pst located in "C:pstuserpersonal1.pst" it would create the folder "\serverpstuserpersonal1.pst" and copy the file to the correct location. I would need it to do this for each pst on the hard drive no matter the location. The user running the program will not have admin rights, so it will need to skip files it cannot access.

I am in the process of creating a system using VB in Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. The system which I am creating is connected to an Access database via a tableadapter.Currently, I am coding a form for a table called Employee and this form allows the user to create a new employee, edit or delete an existing employee. Editing and deleting an existing employee works fine but adding a new employee is causing me trouble. When I specify an employeeID (this is the primary key), the declared value is stored appropriately in memory and it also displays in the form, however once I save the new employee to the database, the employeeID always defaults to 0 for some unknown reason. So, the record which I've just entered has a primary key of 0 regardless of what the the primary key should be.
The employeeID is declared as an integer and the value is obtained by getting the employeeID of the last record in the table and adding 1 onto it. I've also tried hard coding the employeeID and a specific number, but this does not make any diffence. I've reused the code from another part of the system which works fine before, but why it suddenly doesn't work is baffling me. The employeeID field in Access is a long integer.

I've got a class, lets call it Person, which needs to keep some data (in the form of another class which we will call PersonData) in one of its properties - the problem is that I will have several instances of this person class and they all need their own 'copy' of the data (just in memory, its not a file or anything).Hhow would I do this? At the moment because everything involved is a Reference type, I'm assuming that if I were to create 2 instances of my Person classes and assign the same instance of the PersonData class to their properties then when one Person class made a change to the PersonData it would be reflected in the other Person class right? How can I avoid that and make it so that they both have their own version of the data, without having to repeat the procedure that fetches the data in the first place?
I'll explain my exact situation just in case it helps, but this is more of a general question as I could probably get around it in this case by copying the byte array I receive from the server (hopefully that will make sense once you read the explanation below) :
In this case the data I am talking about copying is actually received from a server via TcpClient. The thing is, when the client requests the data from the server over the network, the server has to go off and query several other servers etc so I do not want to be requesting data from the server every single time as that would be a big waste of resources and time. So when a request is made and data is received back from the server, several of these Person class instances will be created (in reality, its a few different classes but that doesnt make a difference for this example) and each need to have access to the full data that the server has sent back but in some cases the Person instances might need to modify the data and this is where the problem appears as they will all be working on the same data.

i have a user define object which i'm initializing with data from external datafiles.... the purpose of this object is to reduce the amount of disk/data access and processing required every time i need to add an instance of this object to a collection.so, whenever i add a copy of this object to a collection, i would simply reference the "base" object, and avoid having to process all the data and perform the conversion and so on...the issue is when i add the object
Collection.add(Base_Object, Key)
the collection ITEM is a Reference to the base object and not a copy.

Lets assume that I code a DLL in .Net and I've added some items to the project (For example a picture, or an XML file that contains some kind of configuration for the DLL), and I set the "Copy to output directory" to be "Copy Always".
Now, what I wanted is that if I give my compiled DLL with the bunch of files that were added as items to it, then if someone ads a reference to the DLL in his project then on compile it will copy all files and not just the DLL.
Is it even possible (Some kind of configuration on Visual Studio maybe)?

copy a form without getting Duplicate reference errors that you would have to fix.So This is what i did and i felt i should share it now that i figured it out
File > Export Template > Item Template > Select Form To Copy
Then
Solution Explorer > Right Click on project title > Add Item > Select Exported Template > Rename file > Add Item
