junale Posted September 11, 2003 Posted September 11, 2003 You need the .net framework for this program to run.Why this? What if i don't like it or don't have it?I always code my programs that it could be used with plain windows (nearly all run under win9x and up).What environment/language do you use? Mine is Delphi 6.0/Pascal or JBuilder 7/Java.
b0r3d Posted September 11, 2003 Author Posted September 11, 2003 Im using Visual Basic.Net to code this program. Thats why you need the .net framework. Or at very least, the vb.net runtimes.
junale Posted September 11, 2003 Posted September 11, 2003 Im using Visual Basic.Net to code this program. Thats why you need the .net framework. Or at very least, the vb.net runtimes.Maybe recode it in "normal" VB.btw. i'm off now for a couple of hours
b0r3d Posted September 11, 2003 Author Posted September 11, 2003 i think the "normal" vb you are referring to is vb6Even with vb6 you need the VB6 runtimes.And whats more important, ill be DAMNED if im going to reprogram this thing agian.
b0r3d Posted September 11, 2003 Author Posted September 11, 2003 Attention: Thoes who care...Version 1.1 is now released! Added some new features and revamped the GUI. Download: Version 1.1Screenshots:I just realized that i forgot to change the version number at the top of the program (still reads 1.0) lol. No biggie. You guys can deal with it Remember: If you find any bugs/typo's or have any suggestions, let me know.Also, if you know of anymore windows variables other than the ones listed (im sure there are a bucketload more) can you post them please. Ill add them to the list.Note: Still looking for a webpage'r Enjoy!

Click next and then I get this..See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.************** Exception Text **************System.ArgumentException: Font 'Courier New' doesn't support style 'Regular'. at System.Drawing.Font.Initialize(FontFamily family, Single emSize, FontStyle style, GraphicsUnit unit, Byte gdiCharSet, Boolean gdiVerticalFont) at System.Drawing.Font..ctor(String familyName, Single emSize, FontStyle style, GraphicsUnit unit, Byte gdiCharSet) at WINNTSIF.Form2.InitializeComponent() at WINNTSIF.Form2..ctor() at WINNTSIF.Form1.Button1_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.OnClick(EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Button.OnClick(EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Button.OnMouseUp(MouseEventArgs mevent) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WmMouseUp(Message& m, MouseButtons button, Int32 clicks) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.ButtonBase.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Button.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.ControlNativeWindow.OnMessage(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)************** Loaded Assemblies **************mscorlib Assembly Version: 1.0.3300.0 Win32 Version: 1.0.3705.288 CodeBase: file:///c:/windows/microsoft.net/framework/v1.0.3705/mscorlib.dll----------------------------------------WINNTSIF Assembly Version: 1.0.1349.12109 Win32 Version: 1.0.1349.12109 CodeBase: file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Micke/Desktop/Winnt%20.SIF%20Creator%20v1.1/1.1/WINNTSIF.exe----------------------------------------System.Windows.Forms Assembly Version: 1.0.3300.0 Win32 Version: 1.0.3705.288 CodeBase: file:///c:/windows/assembly/gac/system.windows.forms/1.0.3300.0__b77a5c561934e089/system.windows.forms.dll----------------------------------------System Assembly Version: 1.0.3300.0 Win32 Version: 1.0.3705.288 CodeBase: file:///c:/windows/assembly/gac/system/1.0.3300.0__b77a5c561934e089/system.dll----------------------------------------System.Drawing Assembly Version: 1.0.3300.0 Win32 Version: 1.0.3705.288 CodeBase: file:///c:/windows/assembly/gac/system.drawing/1.0.3300.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a/system.drawing.dll----------------------------------------************** JIT Debugging **************To enable just in time (JIT) debugging, the config file for thisapplication or machine (machine.config) must have thejitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.The application must also be compiled with debuggingenabled.For example:<configuration> <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" /></configuration>When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exceptionwill be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the machinerather than being handled by this dialog.How come I get this and what can I do to get past it??Other than this I find this software to be a pretty nifty program.

b0r3d Posted September 11, 2003 Author Posted September 11, 2003 Technical reason: I have no bloody idea. It works fine for me Does anyone else get this error?
Nephilim Posted September 11, 2003 Posted September 11, 2003 Hey B0r3d I was just looking over you programm and i think I am not able to use it. At your section "Windows Variables" you use "C:\Documents and Settings" als %profiledir%. That's very nice of you, but in Germany it's "C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen" and as was not planning to change the windows language again....Talking of languages, what about a german.ini, english. ini, hebrew.ini, polish.ini and what else we can offer from users of this forum? Any plans regarding this?Hope you didn't get me wrong, your program is great!!!!!

Any plans regarding this?Hope you didn't get me wrong, your program is great!!!!!That option in there is so you can change the profiles directory to wherever you like.The variable %profiledir% isnt one i made up. Its one incorperated within windows. C:\Documents and Settings is just the example default. If you have installed Windows XP under a different language, im sure that the variable will point to your languages equivilant.If you dont trust me, just remove the setting from the preview of the winnt.sif file on the finish page As for the <insert language here>.ini, could you please be more specific? I'm afraid i dont understand the question
kenneth11zz Posted September 11, 2003 Posted September 11, 2003 Yo, nice job on the new GUI. I wasn't expecting to implemented the tree list panel so soon. At least not from the email reply that I got. Hehehe Yahoooo... It's awsome... Here are some little advices to make the various listings much easier to read.1. Checkbox listing.Have the checkbox align to the left side and have the description follow after checkbox. The line warp is should after the checkbox. One example is in in Unattended section.2. Align everything to left instead of centering.3. Sort by Group and then sort by Alphebatical Order in Components Section.Example: Games, Multimedia, Utils, Others.That's all now. Thanks again for your awsome program.Ahh... One more thing, make sure you install in a simple installation notes such the requirements for .NET Framework and where to download.-Kenneth
kenneth11zz Posted September 11, 2003 Posted September 11, 2003 One more thing, you might be interested in copying some of the design from Windows Setup Managers. That way, it will make it easier for those who are familar using Windows Setup Managers. -Kenneth
b0r3d Posted September 11, 2003 Author Posted September 11, 2003 Thanks for the comments. Ill keep thoes in mind when i start on the next version This version seems pretty stable. I dont think ill update the GUI untill people start swaming me with bugs and problems that need to be fixed.
