Subject: [mono-vb] BASIC STEPS_WIN (Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 express) ->
 LINUX (SLAX)
Message-ID: <17638670.post@talk.nabble.com>


hi


first of all, this is a good idea to make program to work on different
platforms.
now, after installing mono, i just don't know what to do to make my program
work in linux (slax).

i program in MS Visual Basic 2008 express edition, but i make so-called
"Windows Forms Applocation" and not "console..". Here is everything
half-prepaired. Now- ok i know how to compile, but where to click to compile
for LINUX? it seems, i have to copy exe and other files (maybe bas to some
folder), then run this mono console and then what to entry???

this program is quite useful, but no easy steps-how to... that is quite bad
for such good and big project.


can u please write short easy step-by-step tutorial for MS Visual Basic 2008
express- how to convert for linux, please?

still questions:
1) on linux ("slax" or other) - do i have to have anything more installed on
linux like MONO for linux (so that programs can work on linux then)?


thank you soo much for help
Gregor,
EUROPE
Slovenia

PS: an easy step-by-step tutorial is very much needed for not-advanced
programmers
maybe with pictures if it is hard...:-)

You don't compile specifically for linux, just hit the normal compile button
to compile.

Exactly.

No,  only exe and dlls should be necessary.

mono application.exe

There shouldn't be anything to convert. Applications should just work
(unless you coded in a way which is windows-specific, such as using
hard-coded path names to "C:\file.txt" for instance)

i start mono from : "Mono-1.9.1 Command Prompt"?


thnx.
i think i will write simple step-by-step tutorial for "dumb"users like me. i
mean, i just do'nt know really what to click. i wish to have exact
steps...do this...do this...then this... finish.. no wasted time :-)

Subject: [mono-vb]  Help with code blocks inside html tags in .Aspx files
Message-ID: <17679428.post@talk.nabble.com>


Hi,

I'm also a new mono user, and I'm actually trying to port an existing
asp.net application to mono.
I've encountered a problem with code blocks within html tags and cant find a
way to run around it. 

To better explain my  problem I have this simple sample code:

<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Default.aspx.vb"
Inherits="_Default" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >

<head runat="server">
    <title>Mono Tester</title>
</head>
<body >
    <form id="form1" runat="server" onload="form1_Load">
     <%=strString%>
     
    <div id="H<%=intID%>">
        Mono Tester<br />
        <br />
        <br />
        <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox></div>
        
        <input id="input<%=intID%>" value="<%=strString%>" type="text" />
    </form>   
</body>


</html>

the code behind file looks like this:

Partial Class _Default
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

    Protected strString As String
    Protected intId As Integer

    Protected Sub form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs)
        strString = "Random data"
        intId = 1
        Me.TextBox1.Text = strString
    End Sub
End Class

I have no problems running the application on windows, but on mono every
code block inside a tag causes an error: 

Description: Error compiling a resource required to service this request.
Review your source file and modify it to fix this error.

Compiler Error Message:
/tmp/root-temp-aspnet-0/da6ebdb7/App_Web_12e5d8ea_1.vb(191,1) : error

Line 192:             
Line 193:             #ExternalSource(@@inner_string@@, 1)


if I remove the code blocks located inside tags, the application runs ok,
any other way produces this error.

The problem is that in the actual application I'm working on this is is used
heavily, so I would like to know if there's any way to work around this
problem.

Any suggestions or ideas are very welcome! 

Thanks in advance for your time and cooperation,
Alberto Le?n

I had the same problem, what I did was to remove the handles clause and to
add the call to the procedure in the control tag in the aspx page. So in
your example it would look like this:

<asp:Button ID="TestButton" runat="server" Text="Button" 
onclick="TestButton_Click"/>

It worked for me, hope it works for you too.

Hi,

I am a new Mono user, and have the following goal. Basically, I would like
to develop ASP.NET sites in Visual Web Developer Express 2008 using Visual
Basic and serve the ASP.NET sites on Centos 4 with Mono. .

I have created a simple ASP.NET page with the following code:
<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Default.aspx.vb"
Inherits="_Default" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title>Untitled Page</title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
    
        <asp:Button ID="TestButton" runat="server" Text="Button" />
        <asp:Label ID="CountLabel" runat="server" Text="Please click the
button!"></asp:Label>
    
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

And here is the code-behind:


Partial Class _Default

    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

    Protected Sub TestButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles TestButton.Click



        CountLabel.Text = "You clicked the button!"

    End Sub

End Class


I am currently using the web.config file that comes with the "test" XSP
server...

I get the following error when I try loading the page.

Description: Error compiling a resource required to service this request.
Review your source file and modify it to fix this error.

When I remove the "Handles" clause, the page loads, but of course doesn't
function properly.

If I create the equivalent page using C# instead, everything works fine.

I have read that there might be a known error regarding the Handles
clause... has this been resolved? Is it relevant to the error I am
receiving?

I have installed the latest 1.9.1 version of Mono with yum, but I am not
sure I have the latest version of mono-basic. How can I check that?

Thanks for any help!

Yes, it?s a known bug which has already been filed. It hasn?t been fixed yet
though.

"rpm -qa | grep mono-basic" might work, but know nothing about yum.

However as I said this bug hasn't been fixed yet, so installing a newer
version won't help.

anywhere you want

Generally yes (it should have the same structure as where VS puts them, if your exe is normally in somedir/application.exe and your dll is in somedir/anotherdir/application.dll then you'll have to replicate that structure.

Yes.

The easiest way will probably be to do:

Open the Mono Command Prompt
execute "cd /D X:/myproject/bin/Debug/"
mono myapplication.exe

where X:/myproject/bin/Debug is the directory where VS puts the executable and myapplication.exe is the name of your executable.

Which version of mono are you using? 

This should be fixed in newer versions, it is in 1.9 for sure, might be in slightly older versions too (can't remember exactly when I fixed it).

HI,

The error occurs even in version 1.9.1, I reviewed the vb code generated by
the VBCodeGenerator class, the lines 189 and 193 are not well formed (see 
code below), the first parameter for the ExternalSource directive must be a
stringLiteral, the vbnc fails when parsing this parameter, the token
@@inner_string@@ is not accepted by the compiler, oddly the compiler does
not fails when parsing the token /Default.aspx, I think he should. It seems
the error comes from the VBCodeGenerator class when generating the code from
the aspx page. 

Line 189:             #ExternalSource(/Default.aspx, 11) 

Line 193:             #ExternalSource(@@inner_string@@, 1)

You're right, looking at when the releases was made it looks like it didn't get into neither 1.9 nor 1.9.1.

It will be in the upcoming 2.0 release, or you can compile your own mono from svn HEAD which will also have this fixed.

Subject: [mono-vb]  extract resources in aspx
Message-ID: <17787580.post@talk.nabble.com>


HI

In MS.NET I can extract a resource string from the global resources using
this statement '<%$ Resources:TestGlobal,ApplicationTitle %>' (an example is
below, extracts the page title from global resources) but it seems not to
work in Mono, does anyone know the correct syntax I must use for this to
work in mono ?


<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Test.aspx.vb"
Inherits="testclass" Title='<%$ Resources:TestGlobal,ApplicationTitle %>' %>

Mono can't find this assembly, check if it's in the same directory as the
executable.

Hi, 

This is not a vb-specific issue (I made a simple sample in C# and it still
fails), so you'll be better off asking in mono-list instead of mono-vb.

I have no clue as to what the problem is.

HI

In MS.NET I can extract a resource string from the global resources using
this statement '<%$ Resources:TestGlobal,ApplicationTitle %>' (an example is
below, extracts the page title from global resources) but it seems not to
work in Mono, does anyone know the correct syntax I must use for this to
work in mono ?


<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Test.aspx.vb"
Inherits="testclass" Title='<%$ Resources:TestGlobal,ApplicationTitle %>' %>

This is a problem with a P/Invoke call, the app is using a form of P/Invoke
marshalling that Mono apparently does not support -- don't think there's
been a change since
http://lists.ximian.com/pipermail/mono-devel-list/2008-April/027391.html  If
you have access to the sources and recompile then its likely easily fixed...

(I presume that the earlier error messages are from wine).

So, that means you don't have a mono-basic package installed.  I don't know
about package support for ubuntu.  The other thread just now is searching
for debian support too...

However if the application is P/Invoke-ing to native Windows API calls then
its perhaps not likely to work on Mono on Linux anyway.  Download the Moma
tool and see what it reports, http://www.mono-project.com/Moma

That's the application's source code.  I don't know how hard it would be to
implement in Mono.

Hello,

I have obtained and installed Mono 1.9.1_2 setup from the download page.
What do I need to do to write a simple Visual Basic program, e.g. print
"Hello World" ?

The page

http://www.mono-project.com/VisualBasic.NET_support

is not very helpful. 
I am not even sure, if VB is included, I cannot find any example files, the
files in the samples directory look more like C.

I would be grateful, if you coud point me to any useful documentation.

Many thanks
cumaron

Hi,

Are you on Windows or Linux?

You need to have mono-basic installed, it should be included in the Windows
installer, for Linux you'll have to grab the package separately.

To check if you can compile VB programs execute 'vbnc' (the VB compiler) in
the mono command prompt.

Here is a simple hello world app, put it in a file (helloworld.vb), compile
by executing 'vbnc helloworld.vb' and then execute the program with 'mono
helloworld.exe':

Class HelloWorld
	Shared Sub Main
		System.Console.WriteLine ("Hello world")
	End Sub
End Class
