error throwing

[Maileen]

Hi,

I did a VB.NET application but i don't want to deliver the .NET
framework to each of my users.

Instead of this, i just would like to do a big try and catch and in case
of an error is raised due to not presence of .NET Framework, i would
like to catch it and display a simple message.

Is it possible to do this ?
if yes, what is the error message to catch ?
thanks a lot,
Maileen

I did a VB.NET application but i don't want to deliver the .NET
framework to each of my users.

The .NET Framework must be installed in order to run applications developed
in VB.NET.

Instead of this, i just would like to do a big try and catch and in case
of an error is raised due to not presence of .NET Framework, i would
like to catch it and display a simple message.

Is it possible to do this ?

That's impossible.

No,it's not possible. In order to run the code in your try/catch block, the
..NET framework is required.

Maileen,

This would be possible however not with a managed code program language as
VBNet or C#.

Maybe you can try it with making a program using unmanaged code in C++.

Maybe the C++ group can help you in that.

microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vc

I hope you get a result.

As the other posters replied, that is not possible - the alternative would be to have an unmanaged (c++, vb6) program as your starter program that would
check for the presence of the .net frameworks and launch the .net program if it is present - note that I believe (don't have an availlable machine to check it
right now) that if you try to execute a vb .net program on a machine without the .net frameworks you already get a simple message stating that the .net
frameworks is required.

Sorry I don't take feature request for WinRes: it belongs to the .NET Framework SDK. I'm a consumer of WinRes, just like you...

Hi

Your assumption is correct. I did not want to call out its long name
since I didn't know if that could be regarded as breach of NDA.

Thanks for the explanation. Do you take feature requests for WinRes?
I'd like to see a "remember last size and location" some day...

I'm afraid that LocStudio (when you say LS, I assume you are using LocStudio) does not have the option, and WinRes does not remember its size and
location when it was shut down.
If you are trying to call it in your own application, you can always use ProcessWindowStyle.Maximized when you start the process.

Hi

Let's imagine you're using a translation environment (LS) that's
launching WinRes every now and then. Is it possible to open WinRes in
full screen mode in this case? It's quite annoying that it doesn't
remember if I switch it to full screen mode the next time it is invoked.

thanks,
Thomas
