Get VB Source Code From VB Executable Application?
Dec 2, 2008
I have an VB executable application(.exe) and I would like to get back sourcecode for my .exe application. Please help me if you have any software to get back source code from VB exe program.
I wrote an application in my free time that helps people create certain files when they want to create a custom level for some game. The application of course is completely free, I made it for fun and to help the community. That community has now requested that I also release the source code of my application, in case I stop being interested and they ever want to fix some bugs (this has happened loads of times in the past in the same community, there are loads of good applications out there with some small annoying bugs where the creator has gone missing and the source is unavailable).
Therefore I would like to release my full source code, but not before consulting here how exactly I should do it..I could of course just zip up the entire Project folder and upload it, but I feel that is probably not the best way to go about it..
I need to create a VB.NET function that takes the source code of a VB.NET console application and compile it into a console application.For example, this is the VB.NET source code for the console application:
i want to create an application to store all the source code snippets and help information(as i keep learning vb.net) to refer to when i forget or need help.i came across this software.., [URL]
i want to create a similar application. how do i go about creating it? does it require a database? if yes, what kind of database?
I have an exe of an application.I want to automate the process of inserting start time into the text box of the application,I do not know the value of the textbox as I do not have the source code of the application.
I have a source code for C# console application (the consol is a single class application). I want it to be viewed in a textbox VB form application. Is this possible?
I want my form to navaigate into a link then open up the source code of that page it navigated to . Then get a link from the source code then display it on a textbox .Here's an example : i want this link in a source code :
How can i make my form to navigate into the source code and get the link beside config word . I know it is possible to do it , just don't know the function to do it .
I don't know what this is called so I've struggled to find an answer from google but I have a vague memory of it from t'old days.I've sub-classed (* see below) about 8 framework controls, overriden some properties and added some functionality into each one.The changes I have made are identical in every case. If I make a change, I have to go through each class and apply the same change there.I was hoping there may be a keyword such as <IncludeSourcefile "common.vb> that I can put into each class.
(* note) I use the term sub-classed but I don't know if that's the correct terminology. I've also seen it used for call-backs. Is sub-classed the correct term to use?
Way to space out the source code of a web page, having each tag on one line, without having to search for each tag ending and then making a new line after.
Part of the app I am writing allows users to create an encrypted, password-protected output file that they can email safely to a central store. I can't have the users choose their own password for the encryption as the central store needs to access the contents of all the output files emailed to it. So there is one password that gets set within my vb app.I am worried that security will be compromised if the vb executable is somehow deconstructed? Is it possible to read the contents of an exe file (and thus find out the password)?
I need to be able to edit vb.net code using visual studio without stopping the debugging executable.How can I go about doing this? If it's impossible, how can I code and reload that code without stopping the executable? I know of scripting languages like Lua, but I fear the implementation of another language within the VB is unnecessary to save me the trouble of stopping the executable. The issue is that starting and stopping this executable can take a very long time, and I need to be able to edit the code quickly and frequently.
is there anyway a compiled executable can be decompiled? in other words can its code be viewed? the reason why Im asking this if because I have a small project to do which for the most part is almost done, plus the instructor gave us the executable version of the application for us to test-drive, my application does everything but one thing. it is a small calculator application where there is a operator label that should display the arithmetic operator chosen by the user, per say I Im adding two number, there should be a box displaying the plus "+" sing or any other operator I pick, but I dont know how to get that done, so I would like to see the finished application code just to see how the coding should be done.
I am trying to set up an application process to run an executable, which I include in the project's installation directory, and pass it the necessary parameters; however, I am running into issues as it doesn't appear to be doing anything at all.
Here is what I have:
I define the Process As
Private WithEvents conversionProc As New System.Diagnostics.Process Then I setup the arugments and the process start info as follows: Dim ogrDirectory As String
I have a program that outputs a file. I want the user to be able to just double-click the output file and launch the program, just like Word and Excel. In Word for instance, one doesn't necessarily have to open WORD then click on File--> Open and locate another Word doc. He can just go to the folder and open the Word doc. I want to implement the exact scenario in my program.
So far I have tried creating TextFile and added it to the Resources. On FormLoading, I simply I stream-read the Resouce file, but I can't write to the Resource on FormClosing, since the Resource is ReadOnly. Also, the Resource is built & compiled so I suppose you can't add anything to it at run time.How you lunch an output file without launching the Executable program that created it?
I have an executable that I was able to get working on all XP machines by registering all the .dll's associated with it.On Vista, however, I go through the exact same registration process but right when I open the executable it goes to a "WindowsApplication1 has stopped working" dialog. I registered the DLLs in the SysWOW64 folder. I also ran Dependency Walker which came up with IEFrame.dll as flagged, don't know if that is relevant though.
I have an application that has file extensions associated with it. The application has been deployed using ClickOnce. I have checked the associations table to confirm the entry is there and the association is to the 'ClickOnce Application Deployment Support Library'. When the application is triggered using a file with my extension, it does not pass the filename / directory in the CommandLine Arguments, instead you get the executable path of the application.
Which is under ..LocalSettingsApp"Random Strings"MyApp.exe
I have checked the Registry entry to confirm what the extension is set to open with and the application is dfshim.dll. Is there a way to overcome this, or is this just another limitation of ClickOnce deployment?
It appears that the executable application I created can only be run on a computer with .net 4. How can I compile/create the executable to run on a computer with .net 2?
If i have a file ( appres.exe ) in the resources of my VB 2008 Application (myVbApp.exe), how can I start from there? I don't want to save it (appres.exe) somewhere else before start, i want only myVbApp.exe, no more files.
I've built an app that uses the Groupwise (email client) API. It will perform as expected when I hit F5,everything is good, when I use ctrl+F5 it fails with an access violation (see below). I tried to used JIT debugging, but I never get to see the source code, just the assembly. The app *never* fails with this error when run in the IDE.Groupwise documentation is sparse.[code]...
Since I sign my project .exe files with my code signing certificate, I want to check in my application MainForm_Load if the executable is signed and the signature is valid?If not signed or signature has been tampered it must exit the code.
A source code with the DirectInput code and yes i have been googling it and couldn't find one for vbnet yah that would be great to have it just Namespace blah blah function blah blah and this is how u use Directinput("0") or sumthn like that
