Ed,
I followed the C# tutorial and now have the dll. (I used sharpdev to do this). How do I setup Vegas 6 to see the dll and how do I call it from Vegas 6?
Also, I do have VB.NET 2003. Could I use that for scripting instead of C#? IF so, do you know any links to some sample scripts in VB.NET 2003?
Thanks. |

You simply put the DLL file in the "Script Menu" folder and Vegas will automatically list it. Just go to Tools - Scripting - Run Script and then pick that DLL file or Tools - Scripting and pick that dll name from the list.
Technically, VB can be used. However, you'll find the vast majority of examples are in JScript or C#. I really recommend C# instead of VB. |

Thanks Ed, that worked great!
Regarding using C#, I see that you and others moved away from SharpDev and moved to MS VisualStudio C# 2003. From what I can tell, you guys mostly did this due to "bugs" and lack of features in SharpDev at that time.
I was wondering if you or anyone else has the same opionon of the latest release of SharpDev? Maybe it's better now? Perhaps good enough for the casual scipt writter?
Thanks. |

| I don't know about the current version of Sharpdev. I do know that there's a "lite" version of C# from Microsoft that can be downloaded for free and works for this. |

Thanks Ed, One more question about this...
I'm using Vegas 6. My understanding is that Vegas 6 uses the .NET 1.1 Framework. Is there are free "lite" version from Microsoft base on the .NET 1.1 framework?
The only free version of C# from Microsoft that I'm aware of the "Visual Studio C# 2005 Express", which is based on .NET 2.0. From other posts, I gather that this won't work with Vegas 6. |

| That's the one I was thinking of. I don't know of a "lite" one that works on 1.1. |

You can have both the 1.1 and 2.0 framwork installed at the same time on your computer. No need to stick to 1.1, any program will use the version it needs, no worries.

| .NET 1.1 and .NET 2.0 are totally separate from each other and, yes, both can be installed at the same time. Also, .NET 3.0 can be installed at the same time as well but does require .NET 2.0 to remain installed. Different versions of Vegas have needed different versions of .NET. |

Ed,
I'm following your example code in "sedll.zip" file. Here is the basic shell of my code, which is essential a copy of yours but with my project/form name. I get an error on the line highlighted below. "error CS1501: No overload for method 'FormMoveToLast' takes '1' arguments".
Any idea what is causing this? I'm using Visaul C# 2005. BTW, Your example code in sedll.zip compiles and runs fine in Visual C# 2005.
| Code: |
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using Sony.Vegas;
namespace VegasMoveToLast
{
public partial class FormMoveToLast : Form
{
public FormMoveToLast()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void FormMoveToLast_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
}
}
public class EntryPoint
{
private static VegasMoveToLast.FormMoveToLast form;
public void FromVegas(Vegas vegas)
{
form = new VegasMoveToLast.FormMoveToLast(vegas); <--ERROR HERE: 'error CS1501: No overload for method 'FormMoveToLast' takes '1' argument'
form.ShowDialog();
}
}

When you create your form, you have to add the "vegas" parameter. You probably did not do that. You would have something like:
| Code: | public class FormMoveToLast : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
private Vegas myvegas;
/// <summary>
/// Required designer variable.
/// </summary>
public FormMoveToLast(Vegas vegas)
{
myvegas = vegas; |
