You don't pass arguments in AddHandler. It does exactly that, no more. AddHandler wires up an event to a method handling that event. AddHandler does not Raise the event. That's done using, oddly enough, the RaiseEvent statement.

Your code wont event compile because you haven't told AddHandler which event to wire up to SomeHandler.

Dave,
that's not true is it? RaiseEvent will only work with the keyword 'event'
Example:
Private Event Test
Private sub ClickMe()
RaiseEvent Test
End Sub
======
You cannot raiseevent of another object that has built in events (where you didn't use the keyword 'event')

You are correct. There was a guy around here a couple of days ago trying to wire up events the same way you do it in C#. Man did I have my head up my...

 no biggy. Just making sure incase I was missing something. I always thought it would be nice to raise an object's event but MS doesn't let us play that way...

Hi!
Whoops... Didn't see that sorry! You're right it won't compile, and you were also right about the AddHandler thing. I should have done more research myself. I'm sure I'll find a workaround.
Thanks Again!

Hi,
i am writing on a small test-programm wich lists all available trailers on youtube ->
Have a look[^]
I am German so don´t Wonder.
So now the problem is, that i had to write die Draw_Item Event on myself to get this style.
And on every Mousemove, the listview redraws all of it´s Items. And it´s flickering all the time.
Heres my Draw_Item Event:
If e.ItemIndex = Me.SelectedIndex Then
Dim brush As New Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush(e.Bounds, Color.DodgerBlue, _
Color.White, Drawing2D.LinearGradientMode.Horizontal)
Try
e.Graphics.FillRectangle(brush, e.Bounds)
Finally
brush.Dispose()
End Try
e.Graphics.DrawImage(ImageList1.Images(e.ItemIndex), e.Item.Bounds.X + 2, e.Item.Bounds.Y, 130, 96)
e.Item.Text = " " & Trim(e.Item.Text)
Else
e.Graphics.DrawImage(ImageList1.Images(e.ItemIndex), e.Item.Bounds.X + 2, e.Item.Bounds.Y, 130, 96)
e.Item.ImageIndex = e.ItemIndex
e.Item.Text = "
" & Trim(e.Item.Text)
End If
e.DrawText()
What i tried:
- Setting the DoubleBuffer Property on True
- Suspend and Resume Layout while Drawing
and its still flickering, please help me!! im sitting on this for 24 hours now 
if you don´t know how to fix this, a downloadable listview with this style and no flickering would be also helpfull!
best regards
Julian

1) Make sure all drawing procedures are in their proper painting event. Do not alter graphics from other non-graphic events.
2) To changed graphics from non-graphic events: setup a variable that is checked in the graphic event, set the variable in the non-graphic event, then call Invalidate() to force the proper redraw of the function
3) Look into the SetStyles method. This enables double buffering as well as many other features that will improve painting performance.
4) Look at one of my articles: Basics of Falling Blocks in VB 2005[^]. The article has helped quite a few people in understanding the proper way of drawing graphics in applications.

Hi Thomas,
Point 1 is ensured, im only drawing in the DrawItem Event.
Point 3, i had enabled:
ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer
ControlStyles.Opaque
ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint
ControlStyles.UserPaint
ControlStyles.OptimizedDoubleBuffer
but all of that dont seem to work.
My English was not good enough to understand point 2, it would be
really great if you would explain it in other words!
regards,
Julian

DAMN IT WORKS !!! 32 h of endless hate
I made a User Control inherit from the listview control,
and in the constructor i added (like you said):
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer, True)
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.OptimizedDoubleBuffer, True)
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint, True)
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.UserPaint, True)
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.Opaque, True)
This Combination is working!!
Seems like the last time i made something wrong, thanks of you i tried it again,
i also want to recommend This Article[^] + falling Blocks  )
My best regards

I want to find the creation date of an exe. I am using the following code.
Public Declare Function CreateFile Lib "kernel32.dll" Alias "CreateFileA" (ByVal lpFileName As String, ByVal dwDesiredAccess As Integer, ByVal dwShareMode As Integer, ByVal lpSecurityAttributes As Integer, ByVal dwCreationDisposition As Integer, ByVal dwFlagsAndAttributes As Integer, ByVal hTemplateFile As Integer) As Integer
Dim fHandle As Integer
fHandle = CreateFile(FileName, GENERIC_READ, 0, 0, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, 0)
Using this handle, with some more code we can find the creation date.
This is working fine in VB. But not working in VB.net. CreateFile is returning -1 in VB.net.
Could anyone of you please tell me why it is not working in VB.net and is there any other way(methods) to find the creation date of an vb.exe file.
Thanks in advance,
AR Reddy

Dim file As New System.IO.FileInfo("path to file")
Dim creationdate As DateTime = file.CreationTime
That should do it
|
|
|
|
|
System.IO.File.GetCreation???(string filename)
Look for a method similar to the above in .NET and run it on the specified file.

I am Copying directory from one drive to another using the code below.The Function is working fine but my problem is that Is there any other way that I can reduce time taken to copy the directory.
thanks in advance...
my code is:
Sub CopyDirectory(ByVal SourcePath As String, ByVal DestPath As String, Optional ByVal Overwrite As Boolean = False)
Dim SourceDir As DirectoryInfo = New DirectoryInfo(SourcePath)
Dim DestDir As DirectoryInfo = New DirectoryInfo(DestPath)
' the source directory must exist, otherwise throw an exception
If SourceDir.Exists Then
' if destination SubDir's parent SubDir does not exist throw an exception
If Not DestDir.Parent.Exists Then
Throw New DirectoryNotFoundException _
("Destination directory does not exist: " + DestDir.Parent.FullName)
End If
If Not DestDir.Exists Then
DestDir.Create()
End If
' copy all the files of the current directory
Dim ChildFile As FileInfo
For Each ChildFile In SourceDir.GetFiles()
If Overwrite Then
ChildFile.CopyTo(Path.Combine(DestDir.FullName, ChildFile.Name), True)
Else
' if Overwrite = false, copy the file only if it does not exist
' this is done to avoid an IOException if a file already exists
' this way the other files can be copied anyway...
If Not File.Exists(Path.Combine(DestDir.FullName, ChildFile.Name)) Then
ChildFile.CopyTo(Path.Combine(DestDir.FullName, ChildFile.Name), False)
End If
End If
Next
' copy all the sub-directories by recursively calling this same routine
Dim SubDir As DirectoryInfo
For Each SubDir In SourceDir.GetDirectories()
CopyDirectory(SubDir.FullName, Path.Combine(DestDir.FullName, _
SubDir.Name), Overwrite)
Next
Else
Throw New DirectoryNotFoundException("Source directory does not exist: " + SourceDir.FullName)
End If
End Sub

I guess you could create the directory structure first and then use multiple threads to copy the files.
|
|
|
|
|
Can u provide any example for that.
I guess that the use of thread will Slow the copy of files as it will take some time to switch over b/w the Threads.
Thanks

Hello all,
I was trying to print the text file in vb.net (winform)
After googling i got this code...
Let me explain in detail...
I Create a file at runtime based on user request. user can print that file after viewing it.
I want to show that file in PrintPreviewDialog and if user chooses to print then it can be.
The PrintPage event i m using is as
Dim pd As New PrintDocument
AddHandler pd.PrintPage, AddressOf pd_PrintPage
'Event for printpage
Private Sub pd_PrintPage(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As PrintPageEventArgs)
Dim yPos As Single = 0
Dim count As Integer = 0
Dim leftMargin As Single = 0
Dim topMargin As Single = 0
Dim line As String = Nothing
linesPerPage = e.MarginBounds.Height / printFont.GetHeight(e.Graphics)
' Iterate over the file, printing each line.
While count < linesPerPage + 9 ' manipulate the pagelength according to your interest
line = streamToPrint.ReadLine()
If line Is Nothing Then
Exit While
End If
yPos = topMargin + count * printFont.GetHeight(e.Graphics)
e.Graphics.DrawString(line, printFont, Brushes.Black, leftMargin, _
yPos, New StringFormat)
count += 1
End While
Pgnum = Pgnum + 1
If Not (line Is Nothing) Then
e.HasMorePages = True
count = count + 1
yPos = topMargin + count * printFont.GetHeight(e.Graphics)
e.Graphics.DrawString("Page:" + CStr(Pgnum), printFont, Brushes.Black, leftMargin + 700, _
yPos, New StringFormat)
Else
e.HasMorePages = False
count = count + 1
yPos = topMargin + count * printFont.GetHeight(e.Graphics)
e.Graphics.DrawString("Page:" + CStr(Pgnum), printFont, Brushes.Black, leftMargin + 700, _
yPos, New StringFormat)
End If
End Sub
But i m not sure where i should add this code to show document in oreview
PrintPreviewDialog1.Document = pd
PrintPreviewDialog1.ShowDialog()
am i missing something. or completely wrong?
Thanks.........!

Hi,
I am developing Anti spyware product. I got idea on what is spyware. I have seen different softwares. In that they are searching for memory items, registry items and file items. But how to find those spyware in our system.Based on which exes and dlls we can tell spyware, malware and trojans etc. are present in our system.Please give me some idea on which dlls, exes etc will cause spyware, adware.
Thank you in advance

That surely is what your application is trying to find out? Any file COULD contain malware, the whole point of Anti spyware software is that it looks for these.
I suspect you are biting off rather more than you can chew here.

I guess Dave Kreskowiak answer didn't make it clear enough?
Anti spyware/virus/adware/... programme's are probably one of the most difficult things to write. Since the things you are searching for are always changing and are so many.
I would suggest you start with something more simple or at the very least do alot of research before you start writing this thing

I have a tabcontrol with 3 pages.
I have combo with the data coming from a datatable or dataview on each tab page.
I then bind the ValueMember to a property in of a class.
Dim dvMatrix As DataView = New DataView(gMT.PLMatrix, "", "Description", DataViewRowState.CurrentRows)<br />
cboMatrixID.DisplayMember = "Description"<br />
cboMatrixID.ValueMember = "MatrixID"<br />
cboMatrixID.DataBindings.Add("ValueMember", oSettings, "MatrixID")<br />
cboMatrixID.DataSource = dvMatrix
This works fine if it is on tabpage0
If I do exactly the same objec and binding on tabpage2 I get the following error
Cannot bind to the new value member.<br />
Parameter name: value
Has anyone else run up against this issues and is there a work around.
[edit] I only get the error when I change pages to page2, not when binding. There is no onchangevent and it does not hit any of the other break points (I have one in EVERY catch block on the form)
[/edit]

I am trying to complete my project with third party dll using vb.net ,
i cant call the function RDA_ReadAlarmList as below ,
this function call return a integer value and receive the RDA_ReadAlarmList Structure and RDA_AlarmSearchParam as a parameter.
Hope the bro here can help me on this , already headache for few week on this .. what --> RDS_AlarmList **outAlarmList means ?
Structure array ? How should i call this in vb.net ?
Function
10.8.1 It acquires an alarm list ( The asynchronousness ).
int WINAPI RDA_ReadAlarmList(RDS_AlarmList **outAlarmList, RDS_AlarmSearchParam *inAlarmSearchParam);
Structure
11.8.4 The alarm list search parameter
typedef struct {
RDE_SearchDir dir; The direction of the search
RDE_SearchMode mode; The browse mode
int num; The number of the searches (1-1000)
bool senser[16]; The sensor true...The sensor is valid.
int year; The year ( The 4 digit Christian era )
int month; The month (1-12)
int day; The day (1-31)
int hour; The hour (0-23)
int minute; The minute (0-59)
int second; The second (0-59)
} RDS_AlarmSearchParam;
11.8.4 The alarm list item
typedef struct {
int listNumber; The list supervision number (0-9999)
int alarmNumber; The alarm list number (1-10000)
bool isEnable; The alarm validity / the invalidity ( true: Valid, false: Invalid )
int year; The year ( 4 digits )
int month; The month (1-12)
int day; The day (1-31)
int hour; The hour (0-23)
int minute; The minute (0-59)
int second; The second (0-59)
int block; The device index
int field; The field number
int drive; The playback point drive number
int vol; The playback point VOLUME number
int camera; The camera number ( 0: The emergency, 1-: The camera number )
RDE_Alarm alarmType; The alarm type
} RDS_AlarmList;
**Superbom**

Let me tell you this step by step.
RDS_AlarmList is a structure, therefore
RDS_AlarmList obj1 is one object of this structure.
RDS_AlarmList *obj2 defines a pointer of this structure type.
RDS_AlarmList **obj3 defines a pointer of pointer.
A pointer of pointer is a pointer variable which can hold memory address of a pointer.
If you want to know more about pointers of pointer, I would recommend you to search on Google, it will give you links of tutorials.

In general, I would assume that the **outAlarmList indicates an array instead of just a pointer to a pointer to a single structure. The documentation of the function or some other piece of context tell you. However, you will need to declare things a little differently on the .NET side than if it was outAlarmList[]. Since the "array" seems to be an array of pointers, you will have to declare the RDS_AlarmList as a class (making sure to still mark it with the StructLayout attribute).
This single pointer to the second parameter means that you want to either declare RDS_AlarmSearchParam as a Structure and pass ByRef (the normal approach) or declare it as a Class and pass ByVal
So you should end up with this:
<StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)> _
Public Structure RDS_AlarmSearchParam
<StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)> _
Public Class RDS_AlarmList
<DllImport(fill in information)> _
Public Shared Function RDA_ReadAlarmList(ByVal outAlarmList() As RDS_AlarmList, _
ByRef inAlarmSearchParam as RDS_AlarmSearchParam)
