Pass Parameters Using Process.startinfo.arguments?
May 15, 2009I am running an exe program from VB (Visual Studio 2005). This exe program accepts 3 parameters.I am passing the first parameter as a string and the next 2 as parameters from the Sub. However, the exe program treats all of them as string. I tried to use "&" and "+" between arguments and got the same results.[code]...
View 4 RepliesVS 2008 : Process.StartInfo.Arguments With A Collection Of Files?
Sep 19, 2009I need to pass a file's name as an argument and a switch to the executable I'm using.I'm doing it like this:
vb.net
proc.StartInfo.Arguments = "-z ""C: est.txt"""
I'll know where the files are that I need to grab, but I won't always know the exact names. So, I thought I could grab a collection of the files, store them in a variable, and then pass them as an argument.I tested it with one file like this:
vb.net
Dim File As New System.IO.FileInfo("C:...Desktop est.txt") Dim proc As New Process proc.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = "..." proc.StartInfo.FileName = "....exe" proc.StartInfo.Arguments = "-z" & File & "additional arugments" proc.Start() proc.WaitForExit()
But, as you all may already know, I can't use the & operator with a string and FileInfo.Would I have to then convert the FileInfo to a string first and then pass it through?

Passing Some Arguments And Open Form?
Jan 8, 2010I have an application that I start from a sub main. Pass it some arguments and then open a form. Very similar to the log in form. Inside of this application I use 2 dll's. One I had written and another from a vendor. When I run my app from the IDE everything closes down ok. When I run my application from another application(similar to the command line start) the image of the log in box stays on the screen, until I move another window that does a screen redraw.
The process is stopped, by looking at the running process's on the computer. My next question, the dll that I wrote for it is a vb.net class(dll)... I do not have a destructor in it.. I just left the Protected Overrides Sub Finalize() alone which contains MyBase.Finalize() With my dll, could that be causing the window to keep itself drawn? Due to the two dll's connecting to device only within our network. Not sure if remote desktop or citrix causes a screen redraw.
Passing Structures As Arguments For A Fortran DLL?
Sep 11, 2010I could pass a User Defined Type data structure to a Fortran DLL, that contained Short Integers, Singles (real variables) and a series of Fixed Arrays, both short integers and real variables.I am upgrading my VB6 app to Visual Studio 2008 - VB, and I want to keep the same data structures as they are used in about 300,000 lines of code.I modified the Data Structure as follows below, making sure it is of Explicit Layout, since I want the position of all variables to be the same both in VS 2008 and Fortran.Two problems arise:
1) if the LayoutKind is Explicit, such as in the example below (only part of the data structue is shown, where "..." indicate part of omitted data structure members), whenever I try to run my app, I get the following exception message, which indicates that the VBFixedArray declared at Offset 154 is in conflict with some other object, unnamed by the exception handler.
Message="Could not load type 'MyApp.SomeStruct' from assembly 'MyApp, Version=1.32.3906.33480, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' because it contains an object field at offset 154 that is incorrectly aligned or overlapped by a non-object field."
Source="MyApp"
TypeName="MyApp.SomeStruct"
StackTrace:[code]....
2) if the LayoutKind is Sequential, the app will start, all the data preceding the VBFixedArrays is passed to the Fortran Dll without problem; everything that follows the VBFixedArray is garbled and unusable. To check this, I have made a Fortran subroutine in the Dll to which I pass both the Data Structure and a vector; in the Fortran subroutine, all the elements of the data structure are equivalenced to individual positions in the vector; upon return from the Fortran subroutine, I compare the elements of the data structure and those of the vector.
The problem here is that the Data Structure contains some 1300 names, and is used extensively in the application, as it is the way to pass elegantly a lot of data pertaining to a mathematical model with only one adress when accessing the Fortran Dll, in which the computing engine lies.
<StructLayout
<StructLayout(LayoutKind.Explicit, Size := 9226, CharSet := CharSet.Ansi)>

Passing Command Line Arguments To Already Running Single Instance App
Jan 19, 2010I have a single instance database app that emails out notifications. I would like to add a link in the emails that when clicked would open up the app and go to the section of the program that its supposed to go to. I implemented my own URL protocol so that links starting with my codewords get passed to my EXE. So far so good. I then parse the URL and pull the keyword and identifier out to open that section of the program. So if a user clicks a link like this:
MyApp:LoadCompany?ID=323
My application will start, it will grab the arguments (LoadCompany?ID=323), pass this to my load company routine and then load up company ID 323. Works great.
Now the issue is if the program is already open I still want the links to work but since it's a single instance app it just closes the second app. How can I add something ot the app to watch for this or receive a message from the second app? I know I will need to check status of what I'm doing and make sure things are saved, check security, etc but I can get all that done easily enough. I've found some examples online but none really did what I wanted them to.

Pass A Variable's Name Along With The Value When Passing Through Functions?
Jul 6, 2009I want to know if it's possible to retrieve the variables name from when it was passed into a certain function. For example, if I call parseId(myId) to a function with the signature parseId(id), i can obviously retrieve the value of 'id'. However, is there any way I can retrieve 'myId' as a string (without passing it as another value)? Specifically in vb.net, but I'm interested in how it would work in any given language.
