Stop installation using script program - .NET (Core and Framework) Discussion Boards

Hello,
First, I'm french so my english isn't very good.

I must import MsProject 2000 tasks into dataTable.
I would like to use "system.reflection" (or some thing like that) to write generic code in order to call each property of COM MsProject Task object.

But it seems that system.reflection works only for .NET managed objects. I tried to find other possibilities but I found nothing.

Is someone can help me ?
Thanks in advance.

This my be a stupid question but here goes:

I have written a web service in .net 1.1. Am I guaranted that these functions (that are using a not 100% .net 2.0 competible API) will be run in .net 1.1 when accessed from a .net 2.0 application? The application and web service will be on the same computer.

I have a windows sevice application developed in C# .NET 1.1 wherein a thread is running that is polling for new entries in a queue. When a new entry is found, I used Process.Start to start a Console Application to perform some task. I have tested this console application to be started from within a Windows Form Application, also using Process.Start, and this worked ok. Doing the same in the Service thread gives no result whatsover. Can anybody advice me on this ?

Walter Vanhimbeeck

No need for advice on this - the solution was easy, I just had to check the property "Allow service to interact with desktop" in the logon tab of the service properties.

Hi.

I'm writing an application in C# that runs a "cmd.exe" in another process.

I need to get the working directory of the process without having to resort to issueing "echo %CD%" to the cmd process.

Can anyone help me?

I'm going nuts trying to find a way to do this.

Cheers,

Hi everyone,

I created one setup program in .NET deployment and setup project. I used VBScript program for finding existence of old version and popup the message box with Yes No button.

If i click yes this new version's installation setup uninstall the old version. At the same time i need to exit from this new installation when i click No button in that popup message box.

I wrote code for uninstalling old version under Yes button's case. I couldnt get how to exit from the installation,which codes are used under No button's case.

I need help to exit installation by clciking No button.

I saw one script code "WScript.Quit". But this is for quiting from script program. I added the script file under install of custom actions.
--------------------
currentversion="1.0.1"
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colSoftware = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("SELECT * FROM Win32_Product")

For Each objSoftware in colSoftware
ProductName= objSoftware.Caption
ProductDescription=objSoftware.Description
ProductCode= objSoftware.IdentifyingNumber
InstallLoc=objSoftware.InstallLocation
PInstallState= objSoftware.InstallState
PName= objSoftware.Name
Pkg=objSoftware.PackageCache
SKUNo= objSoftware.SKUNumber
Manufact= objSoftware.Vendor
VerNo= objSoftware.Version

'Check the existence of the same product and then check version number.
'If older version is present then display popup message box.
if (PName="VersionUpgrade") then

If(VerNo<currentversion) then

MsgBox "The old Version Number of "&ProductName&"is: "&objSoftware.Version

set WshShell=CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")

intButton=WshShell.Popup("Do you want to uninstall the older version of this application?",10,,4+32)

select case intButton

case -1
StrMessage="You didnt click any button within the allotted time"

case 6
MsgBox "Old Version is Uninstalled"

case 7
MsgBox "Old Version is not Uninstalled"

end select

end if
end if

I hope that i can get idea from this group. Please help me.

How are you all doing?

I am not a programmer and have not got a clue with anything related to programming. I am looking to turn a standard usb webcam into a motion detection monitor.

I would like to write a programme where, as someone walks past the camera a picture would be captured. I would then develop it further by having the picture emailed it to me, etc etc. However for now, i would require guidance on how to tackle the first part of capturing the image. Sniff | :^)

I have looked on the web, and have comne across various files including spot, but have not got a clue on how it works or what it actually is dong!!!!!

PLEASE HELP.

THANK YOU

mrbhp

Stop right there.
If you don't have a clue about programming then you have 3 options:

1.) google for an exsisting program
2.) pay somebody to write you this program
3.) start learning at the BEGINING

you are talking about some advanced stuff and you can't just start and program a motion-capturing program.

Start with "hello world";)

i want install .NET Framework Version 2.0 on windows 2000 professionnal edition so i want know if:

--Is there a version of Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package (x86)for windows 2000 professionel

or

--Is there any Microsoft windows installer2.0 which is compatible with windows 2000 professionel

am

How many times do I have to tell you this before it sinks in???

I'm on my third try here...

To run the .NET Framework 2.0 on Windows 2000, you MUST MUST MUST MUST MUST upgrade Windows 2000 (any edition) to SP4 or better!!! There are no exceptions to this and no "special" version of .NET 2.0 for other versions of Windows 2000. You either upgrade to SP4 or you don't run the .NET Framework 2.0 on it.

Got it???

If you don't want to upgrade to Service Pack 4, your only option is to use the .NET Framework 1.1 or lower. You'll loose the ability to use any of the features introduced in 2.0, and there are alot of them...

The choice is yours...

When I bought VS 2003 in 2004 it forced me to apply SP4 then. Though I think MS literature did say that SP2 would have been fine. But MS tend to force you to apply whatever is their current SP as a prerequisite for these things, regardless of whether they're really necessary or not. I suppose it's because of testing and support issues.

Yeah, I learned a long time agao that if you have a problem and the system in question doesn't meet the minimum requirements, the first thign they'll tell you to do is update the system to the minimums, then they'll talk to you.

i want to know if it is possible to get hardware identification of my machine using .net framework also if itis possible to make .dll file with it and calling with java programm
is there .net frame work version for 2000professinal or xssp1 windows operating systeme

Yes. You'll have to use WMI to get any information about the hardware. There is no standard for manufacturers to follow so the information you do get can, and will, be spoty. Serial Numbers are notoriously difficult to get since most manufacturers don't put them in the hardware.

If your trying to use this information as some kind of registration key, then you'll have to get as much information as you can about the hardware installed and combine it somehow to generate some kind of key.

ss2006 wrote:

You'll be running code in two different runtimes at the same time. Memory requirements will be quite large for something so simple! If your Java library has access to WMI, skip doing this in the .NET Framework and simplify your code, not to mention your supportability, and keep it in the Java environment if that's your primary language for this project.

ss2006 wrote:

No. There is no seperate .NET Framework for these versions of Windows. Either patch those versions up to the minimum SP version required by the .NET Framework version your're using (A REALLY good idea considering the security fixes that are included!) or you'll be forced to use the .NET Framework 1.1 or lower.

You have to have .NET framework 2.0 on the target machine in order to run a .NET 2.0 application.

Captian obvious out D'Oh! | :doh:

You MUST install the .NET Framework 2.0 on the target machines to get your ap to work on them.

Hi there,

Well, I am facing some problems while loading an assembly dynamically from a subdirectory located in ApplicationBase. The code works just fine when this dll is located in the application directory but when I tried to load it from one of the application's subdirectory it is not working even when I tried following options:
First, I created a "test" subdirectory for my test.dll(As far as my understanding of deploying a private assembly goes I believe runtime locates dll in application directory then it looks for a subdirectory having dll's name e.g. temp in this case and finally it goes to GAC.)
Second, I get following error log from fusion
LOG: Private path hint found in configuration file: test.
LOG: Policy not being applied to reference at this time (private, custom, partial, or location-based assembly bind).
where test is the subdirectory I am putting this dll.
I have included <probing privatepath="test"> in app.config but it doesn't seem to work.
Also I have tried to use <qualifyassembly> tags and made this assembly strong named and unfortunately that didn't work either.
Additionally, I have tried both LoadFrom() and Load() methods but no help.
As far as my understanding goes I think I do not need to create a strong named assembly when I am using probing element in config.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I usually use this method

<br />
AppDomain.CurrentDomain.AppendPrivatePath( path )<br />

to add a directory (e.g. for plugins) that the assembly resolver should include in its probing.

Hope this helps,

Tim

Thanks,
I tried the AppendPrivatePath method and had the similar problem.
I finally figured out the problem. It is little silly but I didn't know that the problem was because of changing method from LoadFrom(which requires complete filename) to Load. In the load method I was giving the complete dll name e.g. test.dll so the runtime was looking for directories
library test.dll.dll

Thanks Anyway.

Thanking You.
