VB NetWinCharts code on Net8.0 project. |

Hi Peter!
Noticed that NetCoreWinCharts have only C# code samples. Is it possible to use the VB code from the "NetWinCharts" in a Windows Visual Basic DeskTop Net8.0 project?
Thanks in advance,
Luiz |

Hi Luiz,
I noted the C# sample code for NetWinCharts and NetCoreWinCharts are identical. It seems only the project configuration is different. The NetWinCharts project targets the .NET framework 4 and reference netchartdir.dll. The NetCoreWinCharts targets .NET Core (including .NET 8) and reference the ChartDirector NuGet package.
I will try to modify the project file for VB to see if it can work with NET 8 too. I will update you for the result.
Best Regards

Hi Luiz,
I confirm the VBNetWinCharts sample code can be used in .NET 8 Windows Forms project.
I simply create an empty .NET 8 Windows Forms project using Visual Studio, and import all the code files in the ChartDirector VBNetWinCharts sample code to the project. I then add the ChartDirector.NET.Desktop.Controls nuget package to the project as a dependency, set the framework to .NET 8, and set the startup object to ChartExplorer. It compiles and run normally.
I have uploaded the project to our web site as follows:
