Put it in a shared property in a class eg
Public class Globals
private shared myear as string
shared property Year() as string
get
return myear
end get
set(byval value as string)
myear = value
end set
end property
end class
Then you can call it from anywhere in your application by using
globals.Year = "2005"
or
dim newYear as string
newYear = globals.Year

Hello,
I have been searching around for a while and haven't been able to find anything to do this. I would like to create a form in VB.NET that performs a HTTP POST request to a web server. Is this possible? I don't want a web page as a text entry page with a submit button, I would like it all to be performed from a simple VB.NET application. Any examples, or pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated - Cheers Matt

You're looking for the HttpWebRequest[^], specifically, changing it's Method parameter to "POST".
You can find a bunch of examples by Googling for "HttpWebRequest method post[^]"

Section 5.9[^] of George Shepherd's Windows Forms FAW shows you how to add a normal ComboBox to a DataGrid.
Now, the .NET Framework doesn't supply a multiple column ComboBox, so you'll have to implement your own control to do it. Once you have the contorl built, you can add it to the DataGrid, just lkike a normal ComboBox.
You can find a multi-column ComboBox here[^] on CodeProject.

Thanks for reply
The links which u suggested r not working with

Actually, that code was written in 2003. You can't just copy, paste, and pray it works. You have to fully understand what's going on in that code.
Custom controls are handled by the DataGrid no differently than the standard controls, provided the custom controls are written exposing the correct interfaces.
THe code on those links won't work with 2005 because the DataGrid was replaced with the DataGridView control, which doesn't work the same way the old DataGrid does.

What you're looking for can be found in the Dns class, GetHostByAddress[^] method.

Hi,
how can i convert the below vbscript into .net ?
thanks
Computer = InputBox("Enter the computer name","Terminate Process",
"localhost")
PName = InputBox("Enter the name of the process","Terminate Process")
Set Processes = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" &
Computer & "\root\cimv2").ExecQuery("select * from Win32_Process where Name
= '" & PName & "'")
For each Process in Processes
Process.Terminate
Next
|
|
|
|
|
The System.Management namesapce has everything you'll need to do this. I wish it was a bit simpler to use though...
Import System.Management
.
.
.
' SELECT * FROM Win32_Process WHERE Name='processName'
Dim query As New SelectQuery("Win32_Process", String.Format("Name='{0}'", processName) )
' Initialize an object searcher with this query
Dim searcher As New ManagementObjectSearcher(query)
' Define arguments for our WMI method call on each object returned, in our
' case, Nothing (null)
Dim methodArgs() As Object = {Nothing}
' Get the resulting collection or Process objects and loop through it
For Each ManagementObject foundProcess In searcher.Get()
Debug.WriteLine( String.Format("Killing process: {0}", foundProcess.Properties("Name") ) )
foundProcess.InvokeMethod("Terminate", Nothing)
Next

Wao! seems like i need to rewrite my vbscripts !!
is there anyway to import them into VB?
|
|
|
|
|
No. There is no conversion tool to go from VBScript to VB.NET.
You'll have to rewrite them by hand.

How to dispose the allocated memory after closing a windows application using VB.Net?
Even after closing a subform and returning to main form ,the task manager doesn't show me any reduction of memory usage.
i hav used gc.suppressfinalize(me) in finalize method.even then there is no reduction in memory usage
Help me out!

When resources are freed during program execution, it does not necessarily mean that the task manager usage will show a decrease. They will only be guaranteed to be reduced when your program ends.
The garbage collection is up to the framework and the o/s.
There is a good article (somewhere) on the Code Project about this subject. Have a bit of a ferrett around and you'll find it. there is also some very good documentation on the MSDN website.

Thanx for ur immediate response
Well,in my application,i have a single billing form which will be operated for the whole day and it has many sub forms.The subforms will finish the process and come back to the main billing form.I am performing a repeated process over there in the main billing form for the whole day.I have maintained all the unused objects to nothing such as
dim iclient as new frmClient
some process()
iclient=nothing
But after closing any sub form,and coming back to main billing form,the memory should get reduced.because in the closed event of subform,i have written MyBase.Dispose().But it doesn't have any effect.In the task manager,the memory usage of that exe gets increased by 2MB,eventhough the sub form gets closed.
Help me out!

Who said that? Really, no it won't. At least not to the Task Manager.
Task Manager is the worst tool you could use to see memory consumption in your .NET app.
Your .NET Managed Code (VB.NET, C#, Managed C++, ...) application runs in a managed envrionment, or virtual machine also known as the .NET Common Language Runtime (CLR). What the Task Manager is showing you is the unmanaged memory consumption of the entire virtual machine your app is running in, not just your code. These numbers will also include memory that has been reserved by the CLR, but not yet allocated to your code. This is called the Managed Heap.
When your app starts, the .NET Framework loads and starts up the CLR. The CLR sets up the execution environment and allocates a chunk of unmanaged memory from the system and creates the Managed Heap out of it. Your application is loaded into that heap where it starts to allocate memory for it's objects out of the Managed Heap. If the CLR starts to run out of Managed Heap space, it'll allocate more memory from the system and add it to the Managed Heap. The reverse is also true. If the system (Windows) starts running low on memory, the .NET CLR is responsible for freeing up unallocated memory in its Managed Heap and releasing it back to the system.
The entire Managed Heap is what you're seeing in Task Manager. If you want the actual numbers for your applications memory consumption, use the Performance Monitor and the .NET CLR performance counters.

This question has been answered many times now by me and others. If you're still encountering an out of memory exception then your application may have a memory leak. These can be tricky to find, but just ensure that you are not holding onto any resources beyond their designed scope (e.g. don't use globals unless really necessary).
The architecture of your app may be faulty as I believe that you have it open all day and are continually creatiing/destroying forms as required. Unless properly managed then you may run the risk of a resource leak. The garbage collector can only do so much (however it's still better than in previous versions).
Maybe a small re-arhitect of the app may be in order (i.e. is it REALLY necessary for it to run all day or can it be written so that the user starts/stops it as required?).
Note that this is not a proper solution to your problem. I offer it as a possible stop-gap if necessary.

What you see in the task manager is the amount of memory reserved for your program, not how much it is actually using. Every time your program needs memory, the CLR & garbage collector will ask windows for some memory. Then if the program doesn't need the memory anymore, Windows will reclaim it. When you dispose/close your form the garbage collector will have done it's work.
Tip: after you've closed the form, minimize your main form (so your whole program is minimized), and then maximize it again. Now the memory consumption shown in task manager is much lower.

Don't do that! SuppresFinalize tells the garbage collector not to finalize your form, so you get the opposite result of what you want.
HTH!

True, but he is calling it from within the Finalizer, so it is a bit of a pointless call anyway.

Oh yeah you're right. How can you supress something that is already happening...

As the previous poster commented the memory you see in the Task Manager is the memory that your program has "reserved". When you create forms it has to reserve more memory. When the form is closed it is freed up but the memory is still reserved, although not in use. Your application can reuse that memory if it needs it. If the operating system runs low on memory it can have applications free back to the OS the reserved but unused memory so that an application that needs it can have it.
The bottom line is: Don't worry about it - So long as you are calling Dispose on any objects that expose the IDisposable interface when you no longer need the object the memory management in a .NET application will work out fine.
