[Pockets]

Friends,

I know there are some programmers out here. Need a little help.

am learning vb.net now. I have started writing a small programme that will capture numbers in bv casino and then display some triggers to assist my betting. I am not able to figure out how to recognize numbers that comes up on the screen and how to wait for  numbers to change/spin to complete.

Any pointers in solving this puzzle of mine will be helpful. It must be a cakewalk for many of you.

OK, some choice from me at this very moment in time. Pick one  :

a) I can teach you how to interact with our framework so you don't have to do all the code, just enjoy receiving the number and taking it from there.

b) I can give you pointers on how to create a custom optical reader. I'm not going to write the custom code for you though. As Normy can testify, the casinos must be faced with different algorithms from time to time.

Your choice, I'm fine either way!

Victor, that is very kind of you.  I will prefer point a.

I will prefer point a.

GREAT.

For our release date on the 15th, I'm building a JustBASIC connector module for Max/Esoito which might be able to connect to Visual Basic too.


Interoperability with other programming languages is key for our software's success.

Well, after snooping around it's clear by now JustBASIC is a different beast, apart from VB.NET; so, which visual studio version do you use? There are still some days before launch day and there are several VB.NET users on the forum who are going to benefit from this connector 

I currently have availability of VB.NET from Visual Studio 2012 (Win32) and VB.NET 2008 from Mono (Linux), how about you?

[Pockets]

using 2012

[Stepkevh]

yes 2012 version :-)

[VLS]

Guys can you please replicate this form in your VB.NET?

[attachimg=1]

Just a textbox with the word "input" in it.

Kindly attach it to your post. Thank you.

[Stepkevh]

[attachimg=2]You mean this ??

[VLS]

Thanks Stef, I meant attach the resulting .exe program (zipped  )

You'll notice connecting to the framework this way is really easy!

[Stepkevh]

do i need to create a textbox alone with the tekst "input" in it ?
or do i need to connect to framework or something.
sorry for the question, but it has been a while that i was here 

[VLS]

Hi, just like you have it it's OK.

The idea being I do the ground work so you guys have it easy.



Look at this code:

Code (vbnet) Select Expand

Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged

        ' TextBox1.Text = Latest framework input ...you can do as you please with it.
        Me.Text = TextBox1.Text

End Sub

You simply use the "TextChanged" event to obtain input.

You don't have to do anything else on your side.

[Stepkevh]

Here's the exe.
Needed to rar it because post didn't accept exe :-)

edit : didn't see that you've said (zipped) 

[VLS]

You can experience the connector in action by using this attached archive:

As you can see, there's no special modification required on the program to interact with the framework when using the TextBox connector.
