How to use
See How to use ArcGIS samples for help on compiling, setting up the debugger, and running the sample. If the sample has associated data, you will find that the sample's zip file includes a "data" folder alongside the language folders. However, you will need to update the sample to point to the location of the data once you have extracted all the files.
- Follow the directions in the Walkthrough, Migrating from VB6 to VB .NET for ArcGIS 10.
VB6 | Contains the VB6 project that the walkthrough migrates. |
VBNet_UpgradeRaw_2008 | Contains the output from migrating the VB6 project to VB .NET using Microsoft's Visual Basic Upgrade Wizard, outlined in the walkthrough in the section "Performing the raw conversion from VB6 to VB .NET." |
VBNet_Equivalency_2008 | Contains the output from updating the converted project to be functionally equivalent to the original VB6 project, outlined in the walkthrough in the section "Creating a VB .NET functional equivalent project." |
VBNet_Standards_2008 | Contains the output of updating the project in the previous folder so that it uses VB .NET standards, outlined in the walkthrough in the section "Improving the VB2008 project to conform to .NET standards." |
VBNet_BaseClass_2008 | Once the VB .NET project is converted, made equivalent, and updated to VB .NET standards, the developer can further enhance it by taking advantage of VB .NET developer tools and programming standards for ArcObjects developers. One of these enhancements is to have the code use the ESRI base classes. This folder contains the code rewritten using the ESRI base classes available to .NET developers. |
VBNet_AddIn_2008 | Once the VB .NET project is converted, made equivalent, and updated to VB .NET standards, the developer can further enhance it by taking advantage of VB .NET developer tools and programming standards for ArcObjects developers. One of these enhancements is to have the code use the ESRI add-ins introduced with ArcGIS 10. This folder contains the code rewritten as an add-in. |
