Hi. anyone here know how to develop a p2p application using VB6? can anyone help me on this?? ASAP pls... thanx in advance...

can you be more specific??? because VB6 has D&P, an utility to deploy applications... or are you looking to deploy it in a diferent way???

thanx to reply. actually, i'm newbie to VB6. my project title is something like "PEER-TO-PEER FILE SHARING". i've to develop a peer-to-peer application using VB6. i tried to search for a sample code or previous project, but i've failed. i need someone to guide me through out this project implementation.

is this answered ur question about D&P?? cuz i really don't know what's that. i really looking forward from u and anyone who know. thanx in advance..

Hey there.. sorry I read again your original question, and P&D it's not what you are asking. P&D means Package and deploy and it's the utility to deploy applications, maybe the first time I read your post i confuse develop with deploy...

anyway.. you have to be a lot more specific.. do you have requirements?? do you have something already build?? do you have an idea of how the program will behave??? I don't think that VB6 it's the right language for this type of application. If this is your first project and you are doing it for yourself, I suggest you start with something else...

Also, when these files are "shared," what behavior is implied by that? Just reading?

this application is used at kinda smart school. it's "peer-to-peer file sharing in collaborative learning environment". the end-user is teacher and student.

okey, i've got a sample code using C++ (visual c++ 6). the title is "Peer-to-Peer Communicator and File Transfer". is file sharing & file transfer is the same thing?

thanx.

I still don't understand the point of the application.. if it will be used only on a intranet then this is not the solution.. maybe you are seeing the problem wrong???

mmm.. tranfer probably regards getting a file from a point to another point.. not meaning anything about sharing...

I don't think file sharing and tranfsfer are the same. What I get from the titles is that transfer would place a copy of the file onto a target machine, but sharing would allow one file to be used as a resource from more than 1 machine, without moving or copying it anywhere.

Okey now i have another problem. is it possible to run a vb6 application (.exe) directly from the website?? i mean, once u click a button on a webpage, the target application will execute automatically without downloading it to that PC??

well.. no.. you have to download it.. also you have to install it, since maybe the user don't have the required dll to make it work..
