  • How to speed up 'cold start' of .NET component called from VB6 app

    - by Craig Johnston
    I have a VB6 app which brings up a form by invoking a .NET DLL, but the problem is that this form takes almost 5 seconds to appear after a menu item in the VB6 app is selected. How can I speed this up? I'm thinking that one possible solution is to load the Form from the .NET DLL during the splash screen of the VB6 app but make invisible or somehow not show it, and then when the menu item is selected I will make it show or visible. What are my options?

  • keep only GUI when converting vb6 app to c#?

    - by Craig Johnston
    I have a large VB6 app which I want to convert to C#. The majority of the code in VB6 is quite badly written. I thought that a good strategy would be to keep the GUI design since it is adequate and would be a pain to recreate. But I would want to rewrite the code behind the GUI and the data layer. I could keep the GUI design by using one of the VB6 to .NET converters provided by Microsoft. Would this be a good strategy?

  • WCF JSON Service returns XML on Fault

    - by Anthony Johnston
    I am running a ServiceHost to test one of my services and all works fine until I throw a FaultException - bang I get XML not JSON my service contract - lovely /// <summary> /// <para>Get category by id</para> /// </summary> [OperationContract(AsyncPattern = true)] [FaultContract(typeof(CategoryNotFound))] [FaultContract(typeof(UnexpectedExceptionDetail))] IAsyncResult BeginCategoryById( CategoryByIdRequest request, AsyncCallback callback, object state); CategoryByIdResponse EndCategoryById(IAsyncResult result); Host Set-up - scrummy yum var host = new ServiceHost(serviceType, new Uri(serviceUrl)); host.AddServiceEndpoint( serviceContract, new WebHttpBinding(), "") .Behaviors.Add( new WebHttpBehavior { DefaultBodyStyle = WebMessageBodyStyle.Bare, DefaultOutgoingResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json, FaultExceptionEnabled = true }); host.Open(); Here's the call - oo belly ache var request = WebRequest.Create(serviceUrl + "/" + serviceName); request.Method = "POST"; request.ContentType = "application/json; charset=utf-8"; request.ContentLength = 0; try { // receive response using (var response = request.GetResponse()) { var responseStream = response.GetResponseStream(); // convert back into referenced object for verification var deserialiser = new DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof (TResponseData)); return (TResponseData) deserialiser.ReadObject(responseStream); } } catch (WebException wex) { var response = wex.Response; using (var responseStream = response.GetResponseStream()) { // convert back into fault //var deserialiser = new DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof(FaultException<CategoryNotFound>)); //var fex = (FaultException<CategoryNotFound>)deserialiser.ReadObject(responseStream); var text = new StreamReader(responseStream).ReadToEnd(); var fex = new Exception(text, wex); Logger.Error(fex); throw fex; } } the text var contains the correct fault, but serialized as Xml What have I done wrong here?

  • Why would a error get thrown inside my try-catch?

    - by George Johnston
    I'm pushing a copy of our application over to a new dev server (IIS7) and the application is blowing up on a line inside of a try-catch block. It doesn't happen locally, it actually obey's the rules of a try-catch block, go figure. Any idea why this would be happening? Shouldn't it just be failing silently? Is there something environmental I need to enable/disable? Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Line 229: Try Line 230: Here >> : _MemoryStream.Seek(6 * StartOffset, 0) Line 232: _MemoryStream.Read(_Buffer, 0, 6) Line 233: Catch ex As IOException End Try Although it doesn't matter for answering this question, I thought I would mention that it's third party code for the Geo IP lookup.

  • VB6: Question about version numbers of dependent OCXs

    - by Craig Johnston
    Is it important for a VB6 app to refer to certain OCX versions? I have noticed that if I put my VB6 app code through the IDE on one machine then the form files will refer to different version of some OCXs than if I use another machine. What is the rule of thumb with this? Is it safe to assume that most of these old OCX versions will be compatible with each other and so I shouldn't worry? Some of the OCXs in question are: RICHTX32.OCX v1.1 and v1.2 COMCTL32.OCX v1.2 and v1.3

  • Providing an application data update from a website

    - by Craig Johnston
    I need to provide an update to application data as a download from a website. The update would actually just be the replacing of some data files with some updated ones. The update, which I assume would be some sort of setup package type program, would need to be able to do the following: access the file system and registry to determine where files should be copied to supply the files to be copied provide strong security so the data files cannot be downloaded or used by the wrong people What would be best way to achieve all of the above?

  • How to quickly analyse large MDB file

    - by Craig Johnston
    I need to know how to quickly analyse a large MDB file (about 1GB) to see which tables are causing it to be so big. Is there something will easily allow me to show a breakdown of which tables are responsible for how much data. I need to know whether it is just this one customer who is using the application differently, or whether there is genuinely a lot of data in the MDB. This MDB is currently causing the VB app to crash, and I need to know why it is so big so that I can maybe think about how to put some of the data into another 'archival' MDB. Migrating to SQL Server is not an option, unless the use of linked tables from an MDB is a realistic option.

  • C#: proprietary DLLs requiring access to my assemblies

    - by Craig Johnston
    My solution uses a proprietary assembly, which when debugging the solution throws an Exception saying it can't find an assembly that is meant to be one of the projects in my solution. I cannot add a reference to the proprietary assembly because all I have is the DLL. When I compile everything into a single application directory and run the app it works fine, but I want to debug. Where should assemblies be placed if you want a proprietary assembly in the solution to see them? I assume the issue is that there is no path specified and it is just looking in a default directory of some kind.

  • 3 Dimensional Array

    - by George Johnston
    I don't know why I'm experiencing so much trouble with this, but I would like to have an array that basically represents a layer number and x,y coordinates so I could essentially say, int i = array[layer,x,y] and get the corrisponding value per layer. I create the array.. int[,,] myarray ...initialize it myarray = new int[0,width, height]; ...and it blows up when try and grab a value. int n = myarray[0,1,1] What am I missing?

  • How to suppress jqgrid from initially loading data?

    - by Steve Johnston
    I have a page that has a couple of jqGrids on it, along with a few other fields. I want to make one AJAX call myself that pulls back a JSON object that has the data that should be used to fill the entire page. So, I would like to make the call myself, populate the "other fields" and then pull a couple of collections off of the main JSON object that was returned and populate each of the jqGrids with those collections "manually". I have this much working, but I can't get jqGrid to stop attempting to make an AJAX request itself. Shouldn't there be a way to tell jqGrid to NOT attempt an AJAX call when it is initialized? I found a similar question asked here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1850159/how-to-suppress-jqgrid-from-initially-loading-data But I don't have the option that solved it for the poster. It seems pretty logical to me that some people may want to use this plugin without having the table attempt to get its own data upon initialization. Am I missing an option somewhere in the documentation (wiki - options)? Thanks.

  • Access: strange results with queries against MDB file

    - by Craig Johnston
    I am running the following SQL against an MDB file, a copy of which is located here: http://hotfile.com/dl/40641614/2353dfc/test.mdb.html (perfectly clean file, no macros or viruses) SELECT datediff("d", MAX(invoice.date), Now) As Date_Diff , MAX(invoice.date) AS max_invoice_date , customer.number AS customer_number FROM invoice INNER JOIN customer ON invoice.customer_number = customer.number GROUP BY customer.number If the the following was added: HAVING datediff("d", MAX(invoice.date), Now) > 365 would this simply exclude rows with Date_Diff <= 365? What should be the effect of the HAVING clause here?

  • Can't check more than one RadioButton across multiple items in a Treeview

    - by Mike Johnston
    I’m using a TreeView control to present a list of Questions. Using the Prism.DataTemplateSelector, I'm loading a View (.xaml file) that represents a single Question into each node in the TreeView. In the View for that question is a ListBox containing RadioButtons (one for each item in a Picklist object that the ListBox is bound to). The radio buttons work as expected for the question, but when I check a RadioButton on another node/question in the TreeView, the check for the button in the Question I was editing before disappears. In other words, I'm only able to check one RadioButton in the whole list of Questions/Items bound to the containing TreeView. How do I group the RadioButtons in the ListBox to the scope of the single question instead of all the questions in the TreeView.
