    (mk_xxxx were dllimport dll file)

    Code:
    Private Sub btnDARK_Click()
        
        Dim result As Boolean
        
        result = mk_Msr_AutoDarkCtrl(id, 0)
    
        ' When I put this MsgBox "OK" , it works......
    
        result = mk_Msr_SetExpMode(id, 0)
        result = mk_Msr_SetMaxExpTime(id, 500000)
        result = mk_senr_Msr_Dark(id)
        
        If result Then
            Label6.Caption = "Dark : OK"
        Else
            Label6.Caption = "Dark : NG"

    Re: VB6 EXE does not work, but runs from VB6 IDE

    Maybe it needs some time to complete?

    Can you explain what this is about?
    mk_Msr... etc etc

    mk_Msr... etc etc
    mk_Msr... is function in module, from dll

    I use Ctrl+F5 can run, but create exe can't run

    The Run menu has an option to run with full compile (which I use 100% of the time)
    No doubt you will get the same error as you get when attempting to make exe.
    But, there is a chance that you may get more information about the problem

    Re: VB6 EXE does not work, but runs from VB6 IDE

    Maybe the VB6 declarations are not oke?
    I see some Integer references in the VB.Net declarations, but I believe an Integer in VB.Net is a Long in VB6

    Re: VB6 EXE does not work, but runs from VB6 IDE

    Can you provide more information than "can't run"? Does the application just not run, does it run and crash, does it work but not do what you expect, is there a message box reporting an error, does it blue screen your OS, does it cause your PC to dance? Provide a little more detail on this if you can.

    C++ programmers will dismiss you as a cretinous simpleton for your inability to keep track of pointers chained 6 levels deep and Java programmers will pillory you for buying into the evils of Microsoft. Meanwhile C# programmers will get paid just a little bit more than you for writing exactly the same code and VB6 programmers will continue to whitter on about "footprints". - FunkyDexter

    run exe only crash and no message , I guess it is a UInteger problem?

    If I remember correctly, VB6 applications crash this way when it's messing around with outside of its sandbox such as with your API calls and it's done incorrectly. I'd look into what Arnoutdv suggested about the data types used in the API declarations. If, as he suggested, you are indeed using Integers where you're supposed to use Longs or vice versa, it would lead to stack corruption which can typically cause VB6 to behave the way you described.

    If you're unsure whether to use an Integer or a Long then look at the size of the data types the DLL functions require. A 4 byte or 32 bit integer data type is typically of type int in C/C++, Integer in VB.Net but it's a Long in VB6. A 16 bit or 2 byte integer data type is called a short in C/C++/C#/VB.Net but it's called Integer in VB6.

    I don't know if you wrote those API declarations yourself but if they were prototyped in C or C++, and you used those prototypes to come up with their VB6 equivalents yourself, then you need to be aware of nuances between how different environments treat data types with the same name. An Integer data type in one language may not be the same as an Integer in another.

    The dll declaration comes from the manufacturer's sample. The dll originally only supports C#, Net, and does not support VB6. Please modify the dll and provide the VB6 sample. I will try to modify the data type, thank you

    so,you need call dll by cdecl method

    I don't have VB6 currently installed as I use .Net now and haven't used VB6 seriously in years. I also do not have these dlls so I cannot test it myself. Besides all that, I really don't have the the time to do those modifications for you. But I can tell you how to fix your problem based on the information you provided.

    You said that the original declarations are for .Net and I noticed that you posted these .Net declarations in an earlier post. You need to fix some of the data types. Change all Integer and UInteger to Long. Change all Short and UShort to Integer. This is the most significant thing I noticed. This may in fact be the source of all your problems and just these changes would may be all you need to get it to work. I see some other things like arrays, pointers and by reference parameters being passed which may need to be looked at. There are some potential problems there too. Pointers, arrays etc have to be treated with a lot more care. If changing the Integers don't make them all work then we would take a look at the more tricky functions.

    Also, I'm curious about this. If you're willing to entertain this as a solution then why even bother using VB6 at all?

    Re: [RESOLVED] VB6 EXE does not work, but runs from VB6 IDE

    Take a closer look at the alias in the declaration for example:
    Code:
    Declare Function mk_Msr_AutoDarkCtrl Lib "mkusb.dll" Alias "_mk_Msr_AutoDarkCtrl@8" _
          (ByVal i As Integer, ByVal ctl As Long) As Boolean
    The highlighted @8 in that alias means something, correct? Doesn't it mean that the parameters total 8 bytes? If so, then the parameters are defined incorrectly because they total 6 bytes (2 for integer, 4 for long) not 8 bytes. To get 8 bytes from those 2 parameters, both can be Long or one is long and the other is ByRef (4 byte pointer) or both are ByRef.

    Edited: If the above is true, every API declaration needs to be re-examined since they include the @xx suffix in the alias.

    Most of them appear to be correct. However, that one is both correct and wrong at the same time. If we go strictly by what is written there then it should be @6. However when I look at the .Net prototype he posted, I see this:-
    vbnet Code:
    1. '
    2. <DllImport(dllPath, EntryPoint:="mk_Msr_AutoDarkCtrl", SetLastError:=True, CallingConvention:=CallingConvention.StdCall)> _
    3.  Public Shared Function mk_Msr_AutoDarkCtrl(ByVal i As Integer, ByVal ctl As UInteger) As Boolean
    4.  End Function

    So it's correct in the sense that the actual function being called does expect 8 bytes to be allocated on the stack for it's parameters. The problem in this case is not actually the alias but the prototype itself. It should be this instead:-
    vb6 Code:
    1. Declare Function mk_Msr_AutoDarkCtrl Lib "mkusb.dll" Alias "_mk_Msr_AutoDarkCtrl@8" (ByVal i As Long, ByVal ctl As Long) As Boolean

    Re: [RESOLVED] VB6 EXE does not work, but runs from VB6 IDE

    @Niya. Agree except I think @8 is correct vs. @6
    Those DLLImport samples were extracted from a .Net module per the OP. Well a .Net Integer/UInteger = VB Long where a .Net Short/UShort = VB Integer. It sounds like it is a matter of cleaning up the parameters and/or function return value and trying again. One can use the parameter size in the alias to help confirm the changes at least tally correctly.

    ^^ above is incorrect I believe. The @8 is stack size for all parameters. That value seems to always be a multiple of 4. For example, look at mk_Peri_SetLCD. It has the @8 suffix but its .Net param vartypes in the DLLImport section are Integer (4 bytes) & UShort (2 bytes). That tallies to 6 bytes not 8. But that API is a good example of how messed up the VB API declarations may be. These parameters when compared to each declaration are not even close:
    Code:
        <DllImport(dllPath, EntryPoint:="mk_Peri_SetLCD", SetLastError:=True, CallingConvention:=CallingConvention.StdCall)> _
        Public Shared Function mk_Peri_SetLCD(ByVal i As Integer, ByVal data As UShort) As Boolean
        End Function
    
    Declare Function mk_Peri_SetLCD Lib "mkusb.dll" Alias "_mk_Peri_SetLCD@8" _
         (ByVal i As Integer, ByVal data As Long) As Boolean
    edited: In the Win32 stack, parameters occupy DWord, 4-byte, blocks. So if a VB integer is passed, it occupies 4 bytes on the stack, regardless that 2 bytes were passed. The internal code will only access 2 bytes if indeed a 2 byte value is expected. Well, the API causing the crash appears to be passed an Integer "ID" parameter. ID is usually a parameter name reserved for really important values. So, 2 bytes were passed to API for the ID and the other 2 bytes on the stack remain undefined (not necessarily zeroed out). But the API is really expecting 4 bytes so it grabs all 4 bytes from the stack parameter slot: the 2 that were passed + the 2 undefined bytes to form an ID. In that scenario, one can make an assumption that a bad ID can cause a crash.

    I'd be very careful about making this assumption. As you can see here, Intel processors are fully capable of pushing 16 byte values onto the stack. I'm referring specifically to these versions of the PUSH instruction:-
    asm Code:
    1. '
    2. PUSH r/m16
    3. PUSH r16
    4. PUSH imm16

    Now there is a very good reason to want to ONLY push multiple of 32 bit values. Memory access is more efficient when dealing with addresses that are aligned to 4 byte boundaries and pushing 16 bit values can have a performance impact because it can screw up alignment of the stack. However, in my opinion, it's not safe to assume that a compiler will do that. This is also why programmers are strongly encouraged to use 32 bit Integer data types whenever possible.

    You might be correct about what you're saying but in situations like this it's better to never assume that compilers won't generate instructions to push 16 bit values onto the stack for function calls.

    When I have the time, I'll look into this in more detail.

    You might be correct about what you're saying but in situations like this it's better to never assume that compilers won't generate instructions to push 16 bit values onto the stack for function calls.
    Stack alignment is stdcall (and cdecl) ABI specific, not compiler specific, and on x86 it's mandatory for parameters of *any* datatype on the stack to be 4-bytes aligned both for stdcall and cdecl. On x64 this alignment increases to 16 bytes.

    For instance VB's Boolean (so called VT_BOOL) is 2-bytes longs but gets aligned the way Integer (so called VT_I2) to 4-bytes on the stack padded with zeroes.

    In C/C++ contrary to VB6 a function might accept structs "ByVal" i.e. on the stack and its argument value has to be 4-bytes aligned as well.

    cheers,
