Put A Wrapper Around Some Functionality That Uses A Web Service To Return Some Information?
Nov 28, 2011
This is annoying. I'm trying to put a wrapper around some functionality that uses a web service to return some information. The intention is to wrap all of that communication into a dll such that the user can simply call functions from the dll to get back information, without needing to care about the service.As far as I can tell, that isn't possible, because the service information, as far as bindings and endpoints, HAS to exist in the app.config of the program that references the dll. That means that anybody using this dll won't just be able to add a reference to it and use it, like they would with any other kind of dll, they must also edit their app.config to add in a bunch of information. That's a simple copy and paste job, but it's incredibly unfriendly, and exposes some of the internal workings of the dll to casual inspection.

I'm trying to create a "wrapper" DLL to provide additional functionality on top of an existing DLL. Here's what I'm doing, it may be the wrong approach.The existing DLL is basically a .net version of WinSock. It has lots of public methods and events.The DLL I'm trying to create will provide specific file processing methods, and notification events, which will then utilize the WinSock DLL totransfer the files. This wrapper Dll is intended to encapsulate all of DLL #1 methods and events.
So what I'm doing is having my new DLL reference the existing one, and create a new set of events, some of which get raised by handling DLL #1 events.So I end up with two DLLs, one of which is dependent upon the other. When I try to use my DLLS in a Forms app,I am able to use my wrapper to call methods in the WinSock DLL. Some events that are raised within my wrapper are properly handled by the forms app.The events that do not work (get raised) are the ones which are raised by handling the other DLL's events.This seems to be because the WinSock DLL's events never get raised, when they apparently should be. The WinSock object in question was declared as "WithEvents".

I remember seeing somewhere on the net that there are classes in .Net that will return information about your computer. I know that System.Environment returns some of this information like MachineName and some other stuff. Are there other classes that will return information such as hard drive size, free and used space, total memory, used memory?

I'm trying to understand how I would retrieve information about a running process on my machine from a VB.Net routine.For instance, Assume I open Task Manager and see a process called "Bob.exe".From Task manager I can see the PID for Bob.exe, the memory it uses, the I/O information, etc.I want to be able to query the machine for this information for Bob.exe from a method within VB.Net.

I have a windows app that references a web service I created. In the web service, I created a function that needed to return more than one value. Because of this, I created a public structure in the web service:
Public Structure MyRecordSet
Public lstOfDataInRecord As List(Of String)
Public iNumberOfRecords As Integer
End Structure
Here's the function - the return value is MyNewRecordSet:
Dim MyNewRecordSet As MyRecordSet <WebMethod()> _
Public Function GetDataReturnList(ByVal sql As String, ByVal sTableName As String) As MyRecordSet
MyNewRecordSet.lstOfDataInRecord = New List(Of String)
[Code] .....
Anyway, I see it's a conversion issue, but not sure how to resolve it. This is my first attempt to use a public structure in a web service and receive a return on it from my app.

I'm using ASMX web services in VB.Net in VS 2005. I am calling a function method on the web service that returns a true or false value. This works fine if I call the the web method synchronously, but if I want to call the method asynchronously, the function returns to a sub and there is no return value; therefore, I can't tell whether the result of call is true or false. Is there a way to make an asynchronous call and still get the true or false result (perhaps using the userState Object)?
For Example:
Dim MyResult as Boolean = MyService.GetResult(10)
Dim MyResult as Boolean = MyServer.GetResultAsync(10)
This doesn't work the compiler complains: "Expression Does Not Produce a Value"

So I have an application that uses a webservice, On the UI side the user picks a table which sends a request across the web to my webservice to return the fields of this table. So after this request is accomplished I have, on the webservice side a series of Name,Type Pairs that I need to serialize and send back to my client. I could use a List(of String()) to send the values back but I want to use a List(of Custom_Class) instead because later I have to do this on a much larger scale and I want to learn on this simpler version.

I have a Web Service with Just one Web Method that returns a boolean value and a function When a client application consumes this web Service, I first want to return a value true and then continue with the remaining process. I was googling and didn't find anything that I can understand. In one of the message posts I saw threading as one option. I tried that too.

I'm using Visual Basic express 2008.The application I am working on is the first major project I have ever undertook with visual basics. The application is a launcher for a private server for world of warcraft.I have a menu bar that pulls the file path of the wow.exe and puts it in a hidden textbox, I then have another option that saves this text to c:wowexe.txt. All of this works GREAT!
How can I read the .txt file to end and return the information stored in the .txt file to this line of code.
Dim RetVal
RetVal = Shell("This is where I need the data from the .txt file to be seen", 1)
If your wondering why I don't just type in the path of the .exe, it's simple, not everyone installs World of Warcraft on the C drive.

i have a Windows service that is hosting a WCF service through net.tcp and this is working great. I have also created a WCF service application. I am trying to add the net.tcp service reference to the service application. Then I add it to the GAC that goes ok but if I try to RegAsm the WCF service application to allow it to be called from Server.CreateObject I get the error:
Warning: Type library exporter encountered a type that derives from a
generic class and is not marked as
[ClassInterface(ClassInterfaceType.None)]. Class interfaces cannot be
exposed for such types. Consider marking the type with
[ClassInterface(ClassInterfaceType.None)] and exposing an explicit
interface as the default interface to COM using the
ComDefaultInterface attribute.
It does not work. I have tried to call it through a class library but this does not work either as the end point is not set correctly.

I'm trying to add a control on my form and each time an error pops up : "Failed to import the ActiveX control. Please ensure it is properly registered". I'm currently upgrading from VB6 to VB.NET (VB2010 running on Win 7).I installed vb6 on my win 7 PC and i can still add that control on any form - so definitely the OCX is properly registered. My guess here is that VB.NET is unable to create a COM wrapper for that OCX.
