Start executable on linux server from windows

nccsbim071 — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 04:01:42 GMT

Hi
I have beed developing an appliction that will start an executable on remote computer to zip the files. I provide the location of files to zip.

Now the problem is that i want to start the executable on linux server that hosts the files. I want to start an executable on linux server that zips the given files to specified location.

Is it possible to start executable on linux server from my windows client computer.

I searched on internet and also asked on fellow php programmers, they have been doing this using the exec command of php to invoke the zip executable on linux server and they have passed the full name of files to zip.

I just want to invoke the same executable that current php code is executing.

Is it possible to do that.:-/

VB.NET equivalent of following inline function in C#

nccsbim071 — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 10:50:19 GMT

Hi
Please tell vb.net equivalent of following method:

 private void LookForUpdates()

        {

            System.Threading.ThreadStart timerThreadStart = new System.Threading.ThreadStart(delegate()

            {



                sua = new ShowUpdatAvailable();

                DelGetUpdateArgs delGetUpdateArgs = new DelGetUpdateArgs(this.GetUpdateArgs);

                sua.GetUpdateArgs = delGetUpdateArgs;

                sua.StartLookingForUpdate();



            });



            timerThread = new System.Threading.Thread(timerThreadStart);

            timerThread.Start();

        }

I tried using C# to VB.NET code converter which gave me this:

Private Sub LookForUpdates()

            Dim timerThreadStart As New System.Threading.ThreadStart(Function() Do



        sua = New My.ShowUpdatAvailable()

        Dim delGetUpdateArgs As New DelGetUpdateArgs(AddressOf Me.GetUpdateArgs)

        sua.GetUpdateArgs = delGetUpdateArgs



        sua.StartLookingForUpdate()

            End Function)



            timerThread = New System.Threading.Thread(timerThreadStart)

            timerThread.Start()

        End Sub

Which on build in visual studio 2005 gives an error.

Access remote server mysql database server using windows forms client application

nccsbim071 — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 04:37:42 GMT

I have been developing a MySQL database backup and restore appliation in windows forms. This application crates a dump of a mysql database at remote location and imports everything from the dump file back into local mysql database.

MySQL database is located at the server which hosts my php website. So it is obvious that if i want to access that mysql server from my local network, i have to allow mysqlserver at remote location to allow me to connect from my company's local network, by adding the public ip of my network in the lists of ip that remote mysqlserver can allow connections from. I set this thing in CPanel.

It's working fine.

But my question is that, i have anathor software called let's say mysqlyog, that can connect to remote mysqlserver without allowing my local networks ip in the cpanel of remote server.

So i mean to say that if mysqlyog can do that, why my application can't do that the same way msqlyog does.

What kind of mechanism do they apply?
i just don't know how to do this in windows forms and C#.

how do they bypass the firewalls and or just connect to remote mysqlserver.

What is the trick?

I have been developing windows client application in .net framework 3.5. The system is supposed to copy the remote mysqldb and restore my local mysqldb with all the schema and data withing remote schema to my local mysqldb with the same database name.

Well i found a solution to this using a mysqldump command and executing it from .net by writing all the necessary command in a bat file and executing the bat file by invoking from .net.

But i was looking for a better solution.

The way we make a sqlserver db backup and restore usig SqlServer.Smo package in .net

Ship applications developed in .net using C#

nccsbim071 — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 04:36:45 GMT

Hi
I have developed application in .net framework 3.5 WPF.
Well, you know WPF also requires .net framwork 3.5 SP1.

Now it's works fine on my computer.
But i need to ship it the client.

What will be the software requirements at the client side to run my application.

Is it possible that i just pack everything in a single exe file or a folder and client don't have to install anything else except to double click the exe file and start using it.

Well the problem occured when i developed the application in WPF and ship it to client but at client computer there was .net framework 3.5 installed along with .net framework 3.5 service pack one.
So i suggested him to install both of them and then he can use the application i developed.

Well, you understand that it's complicated for client to handle these technical issues and moreover .net framework 3.5 is large and along with it they also had to install .net framework 3.5 sp1.

Well, i don't think this is a best idea, there must be something else easier and more compact.

Thanks

develop applications for vista on windows xp machine

nccsbim071 — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 04:18:43 GMT

Hi
All the coders out there. I need a suggestion.
I have windows xp installed on my computer and i need to develop application for windows vista.

I would prefer to use .net framework 2.0 and visual studio 2005.
Instead of .net framework 3.5 and visual studio 2008.

Well, selection between .net framework is not a problem. It's ok if i could just use any of them. But i need to develop it on windows xp machine and would expect to implement it on windows vista or higher version of windows.

How can i do this?
Please help
Thanks
