hi all,
I've got my VB.NET project published perfectly. But when I install it and run it, the .swf files which has to be displayed on my windows form app is not displayed.
I've already written the location path of the .swf files this way :
= Application.Startup & "\FlashFiles\myFlash.swf"
and have successfully run the .exe (before publishing of course) on another computer as well.
anyone's help... ?
And you didn't have an error when compiling?
it should be "Application.StartupPath"
ooppss sorry i missed the "path"
yeah so i wrote Application.StartupPath &"\FlashFiles\myFlash.swf" on the code
Does it work now?
no i didn't do any change. it was Application.StartupPath &"\FlashFiles\myFlash.swf" indeed.
i just forgot to write it here on the forum not on the code.
so nothing's changed for now
Seems to me it is not packaged with your deployment.
Do you have COPY ALWAYS invoked in it's properties?
With that checked out and it is OKAY, then try this code instead:
vb Code:
Then use swfFileLocation when using the file.
The code is basically the SAME, BUT sometimes when using other DLL, and working from the DLL (FROM the DLL), it will run from its location which is DIFFERENT than the application running/using that DLL.
Now, I don't know if you are running the code from a Library you have made, but in case you have, then this may be the problem after publishing...and usually shows itself as some programming error (not the system's fault) before publishing. In other words -it is a problem you would have picked up on just running your exe on your computer or another...
So, really -it is a location issue, imo
good Luck!
I did them all. but still no change.. :(
Can you upload your project?
umm.. sorry. I really want to upload it but my colleagues didn't give me permission to do so.
Check your installation folder if the file is there. That is the only thing there is left to say.
