I think I found the issue:
It looks like the original code's author just guessed at how much data would be read from the source file. fread doesn't thrown an error when reading beyond a file's end.

@Niya: thank you for your effort, unfortunately your code doesn't work either.

@OptionBase1 and @Niya:
No, using UShort instead of Integer doesn't help.

@optionbase1: yes I did and I mentioned as much in my op.

@niya: thank you for replying. I tried adjusting the array sizes to match the C++ code, but that didn't help.

I found this C++ code meant to decompress LZSS compressed data:


void decompressData(FILE* fIn, FILE* fOut, int uncompressedLen) {
uint8_t dictionary[0x1000] = {0};
int dictPos = 0;
uint8_t...

Hmh.

Said he who forgot it's "won't" and not "wont". LOL

@_cerberus_: GoTo was already discouraged when vb6 came out. I learned to avoid it even as far back as Quick Basic. I suggest you browse the keyword listing for vb over at the MSDN, at:...

It looks the site is working properly again. For me at least.

@dday9: the title for this thread isn't very clear either. It could be more descriptive.

"scancount = scancount + 1" can be shortened to "scancount += 1". Also consider using the .ToString() method instead of the CStr function.

After glancing at your code, I see it looks pretty clean, however you used a GoTo statement where it looks like an If/EndIf block could be used. I strongly recommend using modern structured...

He has been learning for 2.5 years. Some kind of course.

The site still lags. Occassionally I get errors about "invalid private messages" when clearing my pms.

I have noticed some forum areas work fine while others don't. Very unpredictable. Also I have been getting pms while being unable to open them. (someone else can read and reply though). Could it be...

Having been having all the afore mentioned issues. This is getting annoying.

He does claim to be Turkish, a language barrier does sound plausible. He also says his english is very good... But then again a learning disability or a troll or a child could also be the case.

Lütfen kodunuzu bu forumda yayınlayın.

What? My message got through? Good thing I didn't accidentally double post.

@Peter Porter:

That could be but it might as well be a language barrier. Or both.

One thing I have learned over the course of many hours online is that you only have someone's posts and profile...

1. Would it be more than a few bytes? Still you could explicitly declare a type just to be thorough. I believe vb defaults to Integer.
2. Yeah, I know. It's not always easy to stay up to date and to...

You're welcome. Your code looks better than a lot of code I come across.

I have two more suggestions:
1. Enumerations support a data type declaration. ("Enum ... As ...")
2. Some parts of your...

Nothing I posted directly relates to your question. My tips apply to anything written in vb.

Perhaps you should check this tutorial:
https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_json_intro.asp

A few things I noticed:

1. There's is no need to give every item in an enumeration a number. Just set the first item to "1" and the rest will be handled automatically.
2. Look up on string...

Just a quick tip: there's no need to test for " = True"

"If ListBox1.Selected(x) Then" will do.

@acturus999:
While this doens't answer your question, here are a few tips:
1. Use code tags (the "#" button above the message you're about to post) to enclose your code.
2. Another way to write...

Perhaps you could describe what you're linking to?

@bear89: you're welcome! And I see you put code tags in your posts. :-)

I am afraid I don't understand your last question. Sorry.

Some tips:
1. You could initialize strings to "Nothing" instead of an empty string.
2. The "Output" variable should be declared as "StringBuilder" (System.Text).

@dilettante: I remember that.

While I can't answer your question I have some tips:
1. Your code depends on several external components. It would make helping you easier if you told us where to find these.
2. Personally I prefer...

Here are a few somewhat random recommendations:
-Anyone who is interested in futurism should give Isaac Arthur on YouTube a try.
-Better Call Saul is a surprisingly good Breaking Bad spin-off....

@anndm:
I do not understand your question.

It's not a single module, try looking at https://github.com/PeterSwinkels/Edge-Finder - feel free to submit issues at github btw.

@peterst:
I managed to implement the Newtonsoft.Json serializer into a project of mine: https://github.com/PeterSwinkels/Edge-Finder/blob/main/Edge%20Finder/Core.vb - The program is a little...

Are you trying to develop your own programming language for people to learn programming? It's hard to tell with that spelling. And why is this in the vb forum?

I am glad you understand. I am afraid your question is about something I can't readily help you with. Sorry.

My apologies, I am sometimes a little too direct, but unfortunately there are a lot of posters who ask equally short questions leaving others guessing at the details.

I have no idea what vhgrid is...

Where did you get those resources? And what are bolded threads?
