Create an installation for it. You can TRY to use the Setup and Deployment wizard, but since VB6 is so old, I have seen that the resulting installer doesn't work so good on todays operating systems.
The installer is creates also looks VERY dated. You'd be better of creating an installation from scratch using a newer installation creation app, like InstallShield.
VB6 is so old now that it's not supported. You shouldn't have started new development work in it and used Visual Studio VB.NET Express (or higher) instead.

Hi,
I am dealing with an old FTPS server. (not to be mistaken for SFTP)
I can connect to it using LibCurlNet. (couldn't get it to work with .net's FtpWebRequest / FtpWebResponse)
using the following code:
With easy
.SetOpt(CURLoption.CURLOPT_URL, _URI)
.SetOpt(CURLoption.CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, False)
.SetOpt(CURLoption.CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, False)
.SetOpt(CURLoption.CURLOPT_FTP_SSL, CURLftpSSL.CURLFTPSSL_TRY)
.SetOpt(CURLoption.CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION, New Easy.DebugFunction(AddressOf GetFileList))
.SetOpt(CURLoption.CURLOPT_VERBOSE, True)
.SetOpt(CURLoption.CURLOPT_FTPLISTONLY, True)
Dim code As CURLcode = .Perform()
If code = CURLcode.CURLE_OK Then
If blnFileListSuccess Then
If file_list.Count > 0 Then bResult = ProcessResults.AllroundSuccess
End If
Else
bResult = ProcessResults.FTPConnectionFailure
End If
.Cleanup()
End With
(with adaptations for each action of course)
I can list files.
I can download files.
I can upload files.
But I cannot delete files.That is, I don't know how to do it with LibCurlNet.
So my question is this, can anyone tell me how to delete files from an ftp server using LibCurlNet ?
Or alternatively, can anyone tell me how to connect to, and interact with, FTPS using normal .net ?
All help much appreciated.
Regards,
Johan
My advice is free, and you may get what you paid for.

Since it's extremely unlike you're going to run into anyone who has used that library here, I suggest you ask in a forum dedicated to that library. Click here[^].

Thanks Dave, you are right of course, but I had to try everything.

Hello !
When adding a image to a form , there are 2 options to choose : Form resurcees and Project resources.What are the differences and how to choose ?
Thank you !
|
|
|
|

You use Form resources usually to provide localization for a specific form. so you get a set of resource files for each form making it easier for you to maintain them and VS already provides some mechanisms that automate the localization for you that way.
project resources should be used for things that aren't bound to a specific form but are used in the whole application. A good example would be error messages.
For a bit more information about localization take a look at Walkthrough: Localizing Windows Forms[^] or search through the articles on codeproject about localization.
I hope this helps

I written a ProcessUtility class that allows me to call a process (which in turn runs a commandline executable) asynchronously. The process then raises events indicating completion, progress, etc.
When the ProcessUtility class is set up from the UI form as:
dim WithEvents P as ProcessUtility_Class
P.Start
All runs as expected. Events are raised appropriately and, as expected, they are on a different thread from the UI and calls to the UI controls must be invoked to avoid cross-threading errors.
I've been reading up on async, synchronization contexts and other threading concepts to better understand the issues. While I can (and have) wrapped every UI call within the events, it seems very redundant to have to do it every time a UI element is utilized. Since the problem isn't really the UI, but the Asynchronous process that is raising events in the "wrong" thread to the UI, it seems that there should be a (better) way to have my ProcessUtility class raise it's events within the threading context of the UI (if desired). That way, only the few events are specialized and whatever happens within them is UI-threadsafe. Perhaps something along the lines of (pseudocode):
ProcessUtility_Class
Public Event Process_Started(ThisProcess as sender, SecondArg as string)
Public sub Start(Form1)
Form1.StartInvoke 'Everything from here until endinvoke happens within the MyForm thread
RaiseEvent Process_Started(blah, blah)
Form1.EndInvoke
DoStuffAsynchronously
End Sub
Is there something like this that can be done that the raised events are always running in the context of the main form that created the ProcessUtility_Class object in the first place? My goal is to avoid having to continuously wrap every UI call with delegates and invokes.

What about using a BackgroundWorker for the background task? The ProgressChanged event will be sent to the correct thread, and you could use the Object userState parameter for your specific parameters. But in the end, that might create a different overhead for your events and look like just another WTF...
|
|
|
|

A BackgroundWorker would give similiar function, but I have several more events that BGW supports. And although I probably could inherit a class using BGW, I'd really like to learn the methodology myself and incorporate it into my objects.

You "could" pass a reference of one of the controls of the main-thread to the worker-thread. That way the control "could" do the invoke. You'd do a myForm.Invoke() from the worker-thread.
..and then you'd be tearing your hair out, trying to fix the "object is already disposed" exceptions; your thread will still be executing when the mainthread starts disposing of stuff.
So, I used IlSpy to look at the code from the backgroundworker, and it's using a neat trick;
AsyncOperation.Post[^]
"Invokes a delegate on the thread or context appropriate for the application model."
Will (probably) try it out in the weekend

There's a how-to here[^].

Hello !
I'm using VB.net 2013 and sql server 2008R2
I'm using SMO for backup and restore databases.
I have some questions :
1. When I backup a database with SMO , the size of backup file is larger than size of backup file created with SQL server management studio. Why ?
2.If I want to restore a backup file , how can I test first that this is a valid backup file for my application.
Thank you !
|
|
|
|
|
1. SQL Server can create compressed backups
2. Run the restore using the VERIFYONLY[^] option - this will test the backup file without actually doing the restore

Thank you !
1. But using SMO is possible to create compressed backups? If yes , How can I do that ?
2. I want to check if this backup is compatible with my program , and has the tables structure that use my program.Is possible to do a check before restoring process ?
Thank you !
|
|
|
|
|
1. What is SMO?
2. I doubt that you can do this directly from a backup file - you would need to restore it (probably under a temporary name) and then examine the structure, which you could do programatically

SMO :SQL Server Management Objects (SMO) are objects designed for programmatic management of Microsoft SQL Server
|
|
|
|
|
1. The backup object has a CompressionOption property[^]

2. You may be abloe to get content information using the ReadBackupHeader method[^]

SMO and SQL are two ways of doing things, but the features remain the same. The SQL Command[^] offers the same. The big advantage of SMO would be intellisense.
I'd suggest you write an article (for CodeProject) explaining the advantages and disadvantages of both. Seems you'll need to research it anyway

Hello,
I am stuck and need some advice.
I am using a DataGridView to store CSV data and then using Zedgraph to display this data. Most of these values in the CSV are numeric and I have no problems with these but I have several items in the CSV that are text and display a change of state from on/off, open/closed, active/inactive, etc..
I have been trying to work out a method to have Zedgraph handle these digital On/Off states. I can convert the values to 0 and 1 to represent the states and that seems to work okay but I still need to have a text description for these states so the user can see the actual state or condition of the circuit.
Is there some way that I can assign both, for example display something like Open(0) / Closed(1) and have Zedgraph use the numeric values?
Thanks

I do not know how to fix this error? They write a lot about this error on internet, but I don't understand registry...
Thank you for your help,

Did you check 32/64bit issues? If your application is running on a 64bit OS, and you did not set it to x86, it will run as a 64bit application. When that COM object is a 32bit application, it won't find it. In such a case set the target platform to x86.

Hello,
Thank you for your quick reply. I just checked but it is not the problem. Both are 32bit
