Make Sure The COM1 Exists Before I Try To Open It?

Oct 20, 2010

In the developing environment the computers do not have com ports, but I am working on a project for a client who does. It is annoying that when I test the program on my computers I always get the error. "The port (COM1) does not exist"

I am catching the general exeption but the debugger stops there anyway. I can press "continue" and the program resumes but I would like to clean that up and not try to open the port if the computer does not have one.

vb.net
Try
SerialPort1.Open()

[Code].....

lblNoCOM1 just tells the user that there is no serial port and that the barcode scanner is not working.

Make Desktop Application Communicate Over The Web?

Nov 8, 2011

I have developed a desktop application that connects to a MS SQL server over a network. One of my clients wants a third party company to be able to use my desktop application but connect to the MS SQL database in my client�s office. Obviously my client could open the ports to the SQL server to make this accessible from the web, but this is a huge security issue and obviously not one I want to even recommend. Is there a way that I can make my desktop application securely communicate over the web to the SQL database?

VS 2010 File Exists?

Apr 17, 2012

I have the following

If Dir("C:Test.txt") <> "" Then TextBox1.Text = "File exists" Else TextBox1.Text = "File does not exist"
End If However, I'd like to use this alongside a DataGridView.

Basically, when the application runs, the user selects a folder for file storage. Then, in the DataGridView, the contents in each cell of Column 1 become the file name. In short, the contents of a cell, plus the selected folder for file storage, becomes a whole file path.I need to use the above code to get my application to check if the file exists, and if it does, it should place the text "File Exists" in column 2 of the DGV.

I can't work out a way for the DGV to be "continually aware" if files have been created and so to update automatically without the user having to press buttons etc. As soon as the file exists, the correct text should be placed in Column2.

C# - How To File.Exists In Nunit Test

Dec 22, 2010

I have a method which tests for the existence of a file prior to carrying out some manipulation of file content as follows:

[Code]...

The idea is that if the file does not exist, then the file is generated by calls to the NLog logger instance, at which point the file is created and the specified header info is inserted. The method works fine from the application itself, however I have a simple NUnit test which implements a test method to verify that the file is created and populated as expected. When I step through with the debugger, I find that '_logPath' is set to:

D:Documents and SettingsTE602510Local SettingsTemp
unit20ShadowCopyCache4288_634286300896838506Tests_-1937845265assemblydl37cdfe61aaa18c98d_f0a1cb01logs2010-12-22.log

Unfortunately, despite the fact that the file DOES exist, the call to File.Exists returns false. From earlier viewing of the config path the above path would appear to be correct for these NUnit tests. Does anybody have a clue what is happening here and what I need to do to get the desired result? The pathname to the log file as per the XP file system is:D:Documents and SettingsTE602510My Documents_VSSWorkAreaPsalertsIpTestsinDebuglogs
