I tried compiling the following source code:
Imports System
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Public Class Form1
Shared Sub Main
Dim f1 As New Form()
End Sub
End Class
I got the following errors:
error BC30466: Namespace or type 'Forms' for the Imports
'System.Windows.Forms' cannot be found.
Imports System.Windows.Forms
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
error BC30002: Type 'Form' is not defined.
Dim f1 As New Form()
~~~~
I thought my entire stack of libraries was gone, but then when I tried to
compile the following code:
Imports System
Public Class Form1
Shared Sub Main
Console.WriteLine("Hello World")
End Sub
End Class
It compiled and ran perfectly. What have I done wrong? Do I need to change
the syntax of my code or download libraries? Is it that I am not compiling
my code correctly. Please reply soon. Thanks all- Hari.

Hmmm, check if you have a reference to System.Windows.Forms.
Maybe your default references are screwed up?

When I type in:
vbc /r:System.Windows.Forms
I get 2 errors reading:
vbc : Command line error BC2017 : could not find library
'System.Windows.Forms'
vbc: Fatal error BC2000 : compiler initialization failed unexpectedly: The
system cannot find the file specified.
If this means that I do not have the libraries necessary to run a GUI
application, could someone please give me a link to where I can download the
SDK. I have already tried one download through MSDN, but it didn't seem to
work. Thanks all.

You have to add the .dll

When I type in:
vbc /r:System.Windows.Forms
------------------------^
here you need to specify the assembly name which is System.Windows.Forms.dll
and which contains the namespace System..Windows.Forms.
here's how you need to specify the command (seperate multiple assemblies
with a comma):
vbc /r:System.dll,System.Windows.Forms.dll test.vb
where test.vb might be something like:
Imports System
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Public Class Form1
Shared Sub Main
Dim f1 As New Form()
f1.Width = 300
f1.Height = 300
f1.ShowDialog()
End Sub
End Class
hope this helps..

It sounds as though your project is a console application instead of a
Windows Forms application, and the reference to System.Windows.Forms.dll
never got added for you.

I typed in that exact code, except I called it Form2 and replaced Class
Form1 with Class Form2. Then I typed the following into the command prompt:
vbc /r:System.dll, System.Windows.Forms.dll Form2.vb
and got:
vbc /r:System.dll, System.Windows.Forms.dll Form2.vb
vbc : Command line error BC2001 : file 'System.Windows.Forms.dll' could not

Now what?

If so, how do I get the System.Windows.Forms.dll to get added? I tried the
whole referencing thing, but I didn't seem to work. Thanks.
Hari,
That sounds kinda strange.
do you have that dll - System.Windows.Forms.dll - on your machine?
it should be under %Root%\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.x.xxxx\ for
windows 2000
or under %Root%\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.x.xxxx\ for windows XP.
Infact, that is where vbc.exe is also located - for the default installation
atleast.
let me know..
Imran.

THANKS SO MUCH everyone!
I finally got the whole thing to work. First I took Imran's advice and went
looked for the vbc.exe. I found it in
C:/WINDOWS/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v1.1.4322. Also in this directory I found
System.Windows.Forms.dll. I wondered why the whole thing wasn't working and
I typed in:
vbc /r:System.dll, System.Windows.Forms.dll Form2.vb
and got some errors. Then, I removed the space between the comma and
System.Windows..... so I got
vbc /r:System.dll,System.Windows.Forms.dll Form2.vb
AND IT WORKED. Thanks so much everyone, I really owe it all to you guys.
Once again thank you. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics
