I'm trying to make a LAN IM client using the net send command and I was wondering if there is any way to capture the text of the messages received through net send and display them in a label.
View 6 RepliesThis may seem complicated but it's a somewhat basic concept, just probably a complicated execution, I am trying to create a program that will allow you to basically "IM" between computers on a LAN network. That's the concept, I plan on doing this by generating .bat files, executing them and printing the last few messages sent in a label, the big problem I have is receiving messages, I have no idea whatsoever how to even go about finding out how to take the messages received from the messenger service and print them into the label, any ideas?EDIT: This is in VB.Net 2008

View 1 RepliesI have a .Net Console application which displays thousands of lines on the console each minute. I want to convert it to a Windows Service, however I still need a way of viewing these messages. There are far too many messages to write them to the event log or even a standard log file. I was wondering if there were a way to write a systray app that could simply intercept these messages from the service and display them in a console window. I have no need to save older messages, I only need to see current activity.

View 1 RepliesCan't find any free ones so thought I would work on one on my own for the heck of the learning experience with TCP stuff.I'm about ready to start on the messaging aspect of it.The biggest thing I'm wondering about is figuring out when people are online.I'm not too sure how the whole thing works.Say I turn on my messenger. Would my messenger just send a message to all IPs on a certain port to say I'm online and then wait for a message back from the IPs that can return messages and then figure out who is online that way?
View 13 RepliesI have written a VB.NET windows service application. I installed it in my system using the Installutil.exe. But this is not available in the client's system because the .NET is not installed in that system.Is there any way to install the .NET windows service application without the Installutil ?
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to build a multithreaded SMPP client with VS2008 and I'm getting bogged down in threading. Basically my main parent thread will interact with the windows service scheduler, get registry settings, and get a list of SMPP servers to connect to. Then it will launch a thread for each SMPP connection, which will need to keep it's TCP socket open to receive messages with, so the thread must remain running even if there aren't any events happening (no messages to receive)... but I can't seem to get it figured out.
[Code]...
The Start sub in the oChannel object does run, but once that sub is finished running the thread ends. In the Start sub, it calls other code that initiates a connection to the remote SMPP server, but that code asynchronously waits for an event to be raised regarding the connection status. Once the sub finishes, the async connection being attempted doesn't seem to be able to pin the thread down.
I cannot run Windows Services , I am getting error message "Cannot start Service from the command line or a debugger. A Windows Services must first be installed (using Installutil.exe) and then started with the ServerExplorer, Windows Services administrative tool or the NET START Command."

I'm working on creating a windows service that will send emails to a customer when they are within a month of having their submission expire. I'm using vb.net in Visual Studios 2008
Because it's a windows service it's very difficult to debug. Trying to narrow down my error I created a "sendDebugEmail" method that sends me an email if it gets to a certain line. The emails never make it past "dr = cmd.ExecuteReader()"
I'm wondering what I am doing wrong. My SQL statement should work fine. I've tested it in my SQL server database.
I've created a dummy_database that I just made in sql server as well. I added an INSERT sql statement for the dummy table i have in there just to see if i could actually access a database. All the table takes in is the line number and time it was sent. When I run my windows service that database updates just fine.[code]...
I have a simple question that I can not figure out.I have a service (service.exe) that is running as SYSTEM.I want to be able to send this service command line arguments. How would I do this?

View 3 Repliesi am trying to make a messenger client which will work like alerter or similar, so far i have decided to to make two applications,
1) which will send messenger,(sender)
2) which will accept msg and display a alert to user using msgbox.(receiver)
i have started coding receiver, i am using port 6000 to listen to messenger.so far i have made code to listen to port(open/bind/listen)but now i am not able to figure out how to display messages to user received on that port.
Dim RecieveSocket As Socket
Dim PortListen As Int16 = 6000
Dim address As IPAddress = IPAddress.Parse("0.0.0.0")
Dim endpoint As New IPEndPoint(address, PortListen)

Private Sub Timer_Elapsed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs) Handles Timer.Elapsed

Dim cmd As System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand[code].....
I have written a windows service that uses sockets to send receive data, it works fine when the server has been running and all other services have started, but after a reboot it does not work. Now I know its probably dependant on another service and I know how to add dependencies, but how do I work out which services its dependent on?
View 1 RepliesI have a shell extension made in .NET that creates folders (think of it as a context menu New -> New Folder option clone) and uses a InputBox to input the name of the folder from the user. Instead I want to send the rename command on the folder to the already open Windows Explorer window. It should be just like how Explorer lets us name a new folder:
On searching, I found this : Windows Explorer Shell Extension: create file and enter "rename" mode. It says to use the IShellView::SelectItem function with the SVSI_EDIT flag. How do I do that with .NET?

View 1 RepliesMy project requires that a windows service checks up a table on a sql database(MDF) and if product existence is 0 then sends an email to some mail address and keep checking every 24 hrs.Now Im able to send mail messages but what Im not able is to make the service itself to work or at least make sure that is working.I do the following(correct me if I do something wrong or missing a step):
1. create a new project and choose windows service
2. add a timer and set to 4000 ms just to test not wait the 24 hrs lol
3. then open its event timer_elapsed and put some code on it, like a msgbox that would keep spamming every 4 secs just to test
4. at the event onstart I enable the timer by: timer1.enabled=true
5. at the event onstop I disable the timer by: timer1.enabled=false
6. right click then choose add installer
7. in the newer installed with the two objects:
a. serviceinstaller1 set its properties to: displayname: myservice and servicename: myservice
b. serviceprocessinstaller1 set account property to LocalSystem
8. build the project and install it by opening the VS console and type: "installutil c:path blah blahservice.exe" then hit enter
9. all successfull installed open the pc manager and run the service from the list and this should be the deal
Now my real problem is that by following those steps my service is sucessfully builded, installed, and started but after the 4 seconds no msg pops up so this leads me to think that is not doing anything or I did something wrong in the steps above. Is there another way to test if this service is working else than the msgbox or the log entry? Plus, Im working on my home pc which is a xp OS. I tried the same at college pcs wich are win7 and when I did install by the console it returned an error weird but in my home pc it doesnt(and I have to present my project at college at college and tomorrow
