compiler

[hendrikbez]

I have done a project in vb.net windows form, I did use thinstall before to compile the project, but now it has expired and does not work anymore, I am looking for a freeware compiler or online compiler, I did load .net framework on my home pc, but the project exe file does not work, it only works if I compile the project and then run the exe file.

The framework comes with it's own compiler (vbc.exe) which can be found in the .Net Framework folder.

Is this vbc.exe the same one that if you run compile when you are in vb.net, if it is I did do it and then it gives me errors at home, but not at work, if I use thinstall it works at home.

 

[ca8msm]

Yes - vbc.exe is the compiler that is used by visual studio (or any other applications that you use). If it doesn;t work at home then you will have to check the settings for your pc (try reinstalling the framework using aspnet_regiis -i as a forst step).

If you installed a trial copy of VS.net or VB.NET, best bet would be to remove it, and install the .net SDK (download from MSDN). Make sure you don't get the .net runtime -- you want the one that says SDK (otherwise you won't get vbc.exe). You can then use your favorite text editor (or notepad) to write code, and call vbc.exe via a batch file (nant is better) to compile.
