I haven't seen the price jump 3x. sounds like you need to shop around
-
Works great for one computer or your personal computers. Not so great for commercial software.
-
swap one image for another. pretty standard programming stuff :)

It makes installation and updates simple which frees up many hundreds or hours in unnecessary support work

The device might have a zeroconf service on it already

I don't remember the exact details but we had problems accessing a hidden share \\srvr\share\folder$ with the Open functions and switched to FSO a long time ago since hidden shares seem to be popular...

I think security could be something that kills a lot of vb6 programs. The TLS 1.2 transition has been unpleasant
-
I think you missed the point. Microsoft in 90s/2000s were openly hostile to open source. Choosing windows was an odd choice
-
If you looked at microsoft in the 90s and early 2000s and came to the conclusion that it would be *the best* place for your opensource projects, I'm not sure what to tell you.

We can whitelist any programs we want
It's a few hundred a year. If you broke down the amount of time you spent jumping through useless hoops compared to your hourly rate, the cert is bargain....

Humans are not checking out your app. So protecting your "name" or maintaining your "reputation" is a complete waste of time. Your app is run through a scanner and given a pass\fail. If your...

We've used this for years and it works well and is easy to use. Documentation is pretty good and the samples give a nice starting point.
-
I have a small program that periodically checks for files in a folder. When files are found, it reads them and creates some output in the same folder. The program itself if very basic: single form,...

i think there is a few reasons
1. the vb6 community is dying. People are moving on to other things. There is no one to "push our presence" too so no one is going to put in the work to bring in...

callbyname has some overhead so you might have a performance penalty if you are using it a lot
-
you can do it but the variable needs to be public in the module. Also works if the variable is part of a class (replace me with the class in the callbyname function)
Option Explicit
Public...

have you tried chomeos with android apps or any android device with desktop mode (eg samsung DeX)?
-
some people seem pretty salty that a comment from a single person at microsoft 6 years ago wasn't upheld for eternity :lol:
-
I think there is a difference between a plan changing and outright lies. Are we really upset that microsoft is changing a number? lol
-
are you charging money for this software?
-
Virtual desktops, disposable sandboxes, hyperv, etc were all great additions to windows 10 and have helped me develop vb6 apps. I expect windows 10.1 or 11 or whatever they call it do deliver more of...

there is a touch injection api

Looks like windows has a hard limit of around 32,700 which suggests that they are using an int to address them :)

And each process...

That is stored in the vbp file. search for "command32=" to find it

ftp.exe can also take a script file as a param. Has been in windows since at least windows 2000.
create a file called "commands.txt" and put the ftp commands inside
open ftp.yoursite.com...

you might start with excellent Gossamer project on these forums (https://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?532752-VB6-Yet-Another-Web-Server). The code is easy enough to navigate and you will start the...

wpf is open source https://github.com/dotnet/wpf
as is winforms https://github.com/dotnet/winforms/
and vscode is open source and multiplatform https://github.com/microsoft/vscode
But none...

Sounds like you need a webapp. Tons of choice there. Even something established like php+symfony would probably get you there.
-
Are you using macOS or Linux?
-
The .net framework is open source
https://dotnet.microsoft.com/platform/open-source
-
.net is open. The compiler and language spec receive updates form non-microsoft sources. The 90s are over. It's time to move on.
-
Javascript isn't declining.
And if we could set aside our hate for .net, you would find an open source compiler (roslyn), an open language spec, and lots of exciting projects like blazor.
-
This same thread appears on here every few months. VB7 cannot happen because most people already moved on and those that are left can't work together

$ adb -s <serialno> shell am start -a android.intent.action.CALL -d tel:555-5555
