Simulator To Imitate The Output Of A Gyrocompass On A Ship That Is Moving Around
Apr 23, 2009
A gyrocompass simulator? Basically i work with stabalized VSAT antennas that track a satellite around 30,000 K in the sky from a ship getting tossed around at sea. These antennas need to know where they're pointing so they can find the satellite, this is where the gyrocompass comes in. It tell the antenna how many degrees from north it is pointing.
I need a simulator to imitate the output of a gyrocompass on a ship that is moving around. The program would pass data out of the serial port so i could hook it up to the antenna and it would know where it is pointing when i am testing it.

I need a DLL to be available to my app at runtime but the app has to be standalone with no installer so I can't package the DLL and ship with the app.I am using the technique discussed in this thread: url..That works perfectly. My problem is that I need to do the same thing with an additional DLL and I can't figure out how to do it. It would be easy enough to create a "stream2" and a "raw2" but how do I return both of them from the function? Or how do I only return the one that is needed at the time?

I'm a total newbie in programming. I have question about the deployment of winform application. I have created a winform application. But I'm not sure if the users have installed .Net version 4. I have put my winform application at my website and the users will download it to desktop.
My question is: How to automate the process of downloading and install .Net 4 if users have not install it? What are the recommended ways of deploying winform applications to users?

I have a 3-axis robotic machine. But due to training purposes, i would like to create a simulator/emulator that act just like the 3-axis robotic machine. I want the simulator to be able to create its own virtual parallel port. So instead when i execute the coding that operates the actual 3-axis robot,whenever i send a trigger to my virtual parallel port, my simulator will start working. So my question is,
1) How to develop a simulator/emulator using Visual Basic.NET
2) How to access and create a virtual parallel port within my computer.

I've been working on a graphical simulator application using GDI. GDI is terrible for rendering what simple graphics I need, too much flickering and definitely not efficient. From what I have been reading GDI and GDI+ are pretty much out of date and what I should be using is Direct2D. But my problem starts when I cannot find ANY reference material to even begin coding. I found some examples for C++, but my little knowledge of C++ prevents me from implementing and translating it to VB2010. I have found someone on VBForums through a Google search that says he is starting a tutorial for Direct2D for VB2010 but I have yet to see anything happen.
All I am rendering are small circular shapes used for simulating cell growth, I have no problem rendering 10-20 moving shapes at a time with a small amount bearable flickering, but any more the lag worsens exponentially and the application will use a ridiculous amount cpu. Overall I want to be able to display and render over 100 shapes at a time. So my question is... Where can I find some reference material regarding Direct3D for VB2010?

We have to get the data from a Ship to a Data centre which is located in a city. And the Ship has broad band connection via Satellite . So for capturing data from the ship we suggested to create a WCF services which will be deployed in Ship. And the Application Running on the Data center will call the service and get the data and upload it to the data centre . The same type of Application will be deployed in the data center to upload the data to the ship.

I am making a program for Microsoft Flight Simulator X, and When you are in Multiplayer in most games there is a Chat room, or Chat Box. Do you think that there is any way I can reach maybe an API or possibly monitor the Screen so If someone types !Help in the chat box my bot would Respond like "Software by (whoever) other commands" stuff like that. But I cant seem to find any info about API's in the Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK about Multiplayer Chatbox or any multiplayer functions in that matter.

What I am trying to do: There are three powershell scripts with different time delays as shown below.I am trying to run them asynchronously in .NET and I followed this article to implement Asyncrhonous programming.

I'm just going to throw all my code in here in case there's something wrong with a piece of the code not in the "SelectName()" sub.
Module Module1
Dim selectednames As String = ""
Dim index As Short = 0
Dim inarray As Boolean = False
[code]....
Here's an image of what it does (I suppose you can see what went wrong)13 inputs, 3 outputs expected, only 1 output given.As from what I've figured out so far, it's doing the correct amount of loops etc. It's just as soon as it starts generating the "winner" for the 2nd game key it doesn't get a string value from namesarray.Also, why is
For x = 0 To totalnames - 1
Debug.Print("namesarray(" & x & ") = " & namesarray(x))
Next
not giving me a debug output?

So as a direct result of this global financial hoohar I'm going to start a new job as a VB.net developer tomorrow. Up to this point I've been developing in C# (bit of java, vb6, sql, tibco, etc. here and there)
So the question is this, what are the gotchas to look out for and does anyone have any good advice on writing good vb.net code?(Any other advice on coping with a salary / prospects drop welcome but not essential Just a quick update, company seems really good, current code base appears to be of a very high quality.Am starting to adjust to the VB way of doing things (can't stop myself adding semicolons everywhere though!).

I am finally making the move to vb.net after having supported VB6 apps all this time. I have been learning vb.net 2010 but am finding it difficult to find relevant information on the COM aspect. In VB6 COM was the dominating feature of the language, however, I can't seem to find relevant information on what has happened to COM in vb.net, does it still exist in vb.net, does it work in the same way or are apps designed in a different way in .net to do away with COM dll's?

I need to determine which tab the user is coming from, and going to, when they switch tabs, and possibly cancel the switch. I have tried the Deselecting, Deselected, Selecting, Selected events, and all of them show the e.TabPageIndex to be the same as the sender.SelectedIndex.
Is there an event, or property, that I can use so that I can determine both sides of this, or do I have to hack something together with caching it from one event and using that value in the new event.
I am trying to avoid handling the Deselecting/Deselected events and caching the value to use in the Selecting event. I already know I can do this, so I am asking if there is a cleaner way, without doing this.
I have tried in both C# and VB, with the same results (no surprise).

Am making a game for a college project, its just a mario like game except its a frog.
I want the frog to be able to jump on top of a moving platform in order to get to the other side. However the timer doesn't stop and the frog keeps on moving down. The moving platform has a separate timer called timer2 and the gravity timer is called timer1.
Here is a picture just to show you the game and the frog falling through the platform.
For some reason the moving platform leaves a trail of itself, be cool if you could also fix that for me hehe.
Here is the code for the 'collision '
If Player.Right >= platform.Left And Player.Bottom = platform.Top And Player.Left <= platform.Right Then
Timer1.Stop()
End If
