Hi all,

I have written a code where in VB.NET that iterates a data table. If a certain condition is met in the inner loop, the inner loop must break and the control must be transfered back to the outer loop. I tried the following...

For l As Integer = 0 To deleteditems.Count - 1<br />
               Dim selectedrow As String = deleteditems.Item(l).ToString<br />
               For j As Integer = 0 To tableinstance.Rows.Count - 1<br />
                   If tableinstance.Rows(j).Item(0).ToString() = selectedrow Then<br />
                       tableinstance.Rows(j).Delete()<br />
                       Exit For<br />
                   End If<br />
               Next<br />
           Next

The problem is that the "exit for" not only exits the inner loop , but also the outer loop... any help would be appreciated...

When you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.

please neglect....I was my mistake since deleteditems.Count was =1

Dear,

I am trying to give you some sample. If you take one FOR and While loop it works fine.
You can test this sample.

Dim a(,) As Integer = {{1, 2, 3}, {4, 5, 6}, {7, 8, 9}}
Dim s As String = ""

For i As Integer = 0 To a.GetUpperBound(0)
Dim j As Integer = 0
While j <= a.GetUpperBound(1)
If a(i, j) = 2 Then
Exit While
End If
s &= a(i, j) & " "
j += 1
End While
s &= vbCrLf
Next
MsgBox(s)

If it solves the problem, then confirm. We can't do anything if we use same types of loops.

Thanks and Regards,
Ashok

I have checked it with For loop using Exit For with it. But I have not checked for everything. Can you provide me any examples regading this

Just put in another For loop within the first and check it out...

You are right. Actually I was giving incorrect conditions with the Loop.

How to Package the DLLs

Dear All,

I have developed an Windows Application in VB.Net. This application user some other DLLs for its execution. When I use it on my machine which has the DLLs it gives no problem. But when I transfer only the EXE file of the application and try to exceute there it gives exception as the DLL is not present. So, my question is how can I create the windows Exe file which will combine all the required DLLs for its use. I am not interested in creating and Installer or use Packaging Project. This application has to be designed as a simple EXE (ony one file) file which I can transfer to any machine and perform the work there. Of course the targetr machines have .Net Framework installed.

Please try to provide some solution, if possible with some code example.

Thanks in Advance.
Ashok

Copy all the code out of your dlls into your main project. That's your only option.

All the DLLs are already present in the same directory.

I'm sorry. I guess you didn't read what I said. If you want to distribute the exe without the dlls, you need to take the code out of the dlls, put it in your main project, and build an exe where the code is all inside the exe, instead of in dlls.

Thank you for your suggestion. But this is not possible as I don't have the code with me, just the DLLs.

Is it possible now?

Your problem just like me, but maybe you can try use Ilmerge GUI or Xenocode2007, but if you use ILmerge GUI (surf to the internet), the other PC must have framework that same with your project.

Have you tried with ILmerge GUI ? The other machine has the framework, that is not a problem.
OK, I will search for this tool now.

Use of Dll

Hello,

1. I create a DLL in VB.NET. This dll (and all the other I will create in the future) is located on a net server (Novell).
2. I had created a program that use this dll.
3. The program is installed on 10 different computers.

I would like that my program will use the dll installed on the net not the dll installed on the local pc.
The cause is if I am upgrading my dll I don't want:
a. Prepare a new setup for the application.
b. Run setup again in each one of the computers.

How can I do this?

Please help, thanks

The way to do this that isn't insane, is to dynamically load the dll locally and jsut write code that checks the server for a new version and installs it if it exists.

If I understood right, I should write a small application that running on each one of the local computers and check for new version of dll and if there are new version of dll I have to copy them to the local client pc?

If yes, this is a big project because we have a lot of application and a lot of dll and a lot of computers in our factory.

I thought that instead of using the dll from Local pc, the program will use the dll from its location on the net. And after upgrading it, the program will use thi last upgrade one. Can it be done in this way?

No, you can't. Apart from any other considerations, you want one PC to run all the code for all the computers in your factory ?

It's really not much work at all. It's boilerplate code, you write it once and reuse. Hell, just deploy with clickonce and set it for automatic updates.

Thank you all for your fast replies.

How can I set a program for automatic updates? Do you mean from windows schedule?

Only if you wrote both programs. WM_COPYDATA is one way to do it.
