<0> is there an interval or something you can set in the framework that will tell .net apps when to clean up after themselves sorta?
<1> I'm trying to write a little DLL updater /w Nullsoft Installer (NSIS) but when I run GetDLLVersion on a .DLL I only get 0.0.0.0 back, I notice the example in the docs only mention .EXEs, any ideas?
<2> Could use the APIs directly instead
<3> I want to get MAC addresses - from another subnet - how difficult is that?
<3> i can get the MAC address from a hostname in my own subnet easiley ewnough
<3> -w
<4> how do you say if this object is this type of object in vb
<2> typeof, you said it
<4> nice
<1> OnErr0r: if that was for me, what do APIs have to do with this, I merely want to check some DLLs, and if mine are newer, replace them
<2> rhelik: You use APIs to check
<1> well what's the point of GetDLLVersion ?!
<2> no idea, never heard of it
<1> it only gets .EXE version numbers?
<1> you realize I'm talking about NSIS, not VB6, right?
<2> #NSIS
<1> the only server than has the official #NSIS channel won't accept port 6665, I'm firewalled :(
<2> What does that have to do with asking here?
<1> considering NSIS is a great installer, I ***umed some VB coders would use it to deploy their apps
<1> but yes, it was a long shot perhays
<5> hrm
<5> i havent dealt with GDI+ in quite some time
<5> no time like the present
<6> hi guys. i've got a little ms-dos command question
<6> is this the place to ask? :)
<6> i'm looking for a script to search through my drives after a string, and then give the output in a txt
<7> my cock is out
<4> whoa
<4> tmi
<4> saian: a string in a file?
<6> no, just a string in a folder
<4> like - in the folder name?
<6> i'm using dir /s | find /i "string"
<4> yeah thats what you want
<6> and i'd like to do that on all my 3 disks at once
<4> only you probably also want to use /b with dir... or if thats working ok
<4> well yer gonna have to run 3 command prompts to do that
<4> if you want it all at the same time
<6> dir /s d: e: f: g: | find /i "string" >output.txt
<4> that may work but if it does, it will do them one after another instead of at the same time
<6> ah, i see
<6> id like to do like this
<4> so it ****s that you can't get all the results into one text file but - having 3 run at the same time is faster
<6> i think you can
<6> by using > and >>
<6> >> adds to already existing file
<4> yeah i guess there shouldn't be a problem with a couple of them adding to a textfile at the same time...
<6> but what i'd like was a little bat file or somthing which i could call like this
<4> but since you're probably not interested in viewing that textfile until the search is done? you probably could just append the 3 textfiles together
<6> search.bat "string"
<6> and the output would be in /search/string.txt
<6> or something like that
<6> true, i can prolly just write the command manually
<6> dont need a script for everything ;)
<4> well since you're in #visualbasic - you could probably use the API call WinExec - and execute all 3 dos prompts at once
<6> ah,i see
<4> then after its all done - which btw to tell when its done - what you do is generate 3 batch files - if yer gonna do it like this - and then create a file that doesn't exist at the *end* of each batch file - that way you can tell when each one is done,
<4> i mean some people would say that programmatically this is getting into hacksville, but it works, and yer just trying to do a simple search on 3 hard drives and - i mean - say what u will but the dos search is fast... - i mean - if you wrote the threaded code to do it in vb it would be as fast... so
<4> like everything else theres a few different ways to do it
<6> is there a view command in dos?
<6> like cat is in linux?
<4> type
<6> nice =)
<6> when i use the dir /s command, i get the file results aswell
<6> not just the dirs
<6> i just like the directorys
<6> is that possible?
<4> dir/ad
<6> so
<4> dir/ad/s
<6> dir /ad /s /b d: e: f: g: | find /i "string" > result.txt
<4> well - i'm not sure if that syntax will work - it gets a little complicated
<6> correct? :)
<6> *searching
<6> *
<4> i always seperate the drive letters with commas
<4> i'd do it like dir /ad/s/b d:\*.*, c:\*.* | find ...
<4> but what u have might work
<6> it worked
<6> but when I use /s and /b it includes the path to the folder
<4> but what text are you going to find in a directory and not a file?
<6> its in a dir jes
<6> yes
<6> is there any way for me to not get the path in the output?
<4> u mean u just want the very last part of the path?
<6> just the dir names i mean
<6> not the c:\windows\
<6> if you know what i mean?
<4> but for instance, System32
<4> ?
<6> yep!!
<4> so instead of C:\Windows\System32 ok.
<4> not off the top of my head
<4> i mean there's always dir/? but.
<0> you 2 should probably type in private
<4> there might be some string formatting thing you can do - sometimes i'm surprized at what dos can do
<0> get to know each other a little
<4> well will you come with us? i don't like wasting dutch ovens on just one guy
<6> thanx kreeme
<6> i settle with that one =)
