Cosmos not showing up for me

I've been searching for a few hours for a solution for my problems. But I've downloaded Cosmos (operating system) using visual studio 2015 community edition. At first I downloaded the userkit, then realized that I wanted the devkit (maybe). All the examples I see online are using this:
using Cosmos.Compiler.Builder;
But that isn't working for me. ( I did change the properties to use the 3.5 framework, i read that I must use that and now it's not finding Cosmos anywhere. Before when I was using framework 4.5 I could use cosmos, but only Cosmos.System and one other. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
This is what I'm getting in Kernel.cs when I first start a cosmos project:
using System;
using System.Colletions.Generic;
using System.Text;
using Sys = Cosmos.System;
namespace CosmosKernel1
{
public class Kernel : Sys.Kernel
{
protected override void BeforeRun()
{
Console.WriteLine("Cosmos booted successfully. Type a line of text to get it echoed back.");
}
protected override void Run()
{
Console.Write("Input: ");
var input = Console.ReadLine();
Console.Write("Text type: ");
Console.WriteLine(input);
}
}
}

First make sure that you have a COSMOS PROJECT and not a typical c# console app or something.
Second, after confirming that, make sure you have cosmos.compiler and all the cosmos dlls in your references.

Reference to the right "System" in c# project

I am new to c# and visual studio and have run into some trouble.
I have created a project with references to "Windows" and ".Net" in visual studio because I want to test a little with smart cards.
The code:
using System;
using Windows.Devices.Enumeration;
using Windows.Devices.SmartCards;
class HandleSmartCard
{
public async void checkNumberOfSmartCards()
{
string selector = SmartCardReader.GetDeviceSelector();
DeviceInformationCollection devices = await DeviceInformation.FindAllAsync(selector);
// return "2";
}
}
So far it looks fine. However I also want the project to be able to use
System.Windows.Forms; which I have used in a previos test.
I add reference to System.Windows.Forms; and try to create a form. However in that form when I try this:
Form prompt = new Form();
System.Windows.Forms.Button confirmation = new System.Windows.Forms.Button() { Dock = DockStyle.Bottom };
confirmation.Click += (sender, e) => { prompt.Close(); };
I get a red line under "Close" with the message:
Reference to type component claims it is defined in system but could
not be found.
System is referenced at top of file, but I am guessing it is the wrong type of system right?
Can I somehow use "both Systems" in one project so to speak?
I hope someone understands what I mean and can help me understand this.

You're most likely working on a UWP app. The API for UWP apps is a very small subset of the full .NET framework. You can find more information here
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/mt185501.aspx
You're attempting to reference System.Windows.Forms which is not allowed in UWP applications.
Looks like you're trying to create a popup to ask the user something. For this, use the MessageDialog class.

C# Not able to return to my another class file

I am trying to create an automation system but I am facing a problem here. Below is the brief description
main.cs
[Test]
public void Test_MyPage()
{
LoginPageObject objLogin = new LoginPageObject();
FunctionTest cc = objLogin.FunctionAbcTest();
FunctionTest objAbcTest = new FunctionTest();
}
LoginPageObject.cs
// Login Functionality
//public void Login (some args){...}
// And
public FunctionTest FunctionAbcTest()
{
//some functions to be called .....(1)
return new FunctionTest();
}
FunctionTest.cs
//Test automation functions are called
Expected Result: To return to FunctionTest class to continue further test
Actual Result: After some function which is called in (1) it automation gets completed but does not return to FunctionTest.cs
I really need help with this.
I would really appreciate your help.
PLEASE NOTE:
For more description, you can refer my project.
Click Here.
Please add full path to open excel file
Install MS Access Database engine 2010 (either 32bit or 64bit depending on your machine).
Install nunit 2.6.4 and run the project via nunit
Visual Studio 2013
Download will expires 1/3

In your main.cs you need to add one line.
[Test]
public void Test_MyPage()
{
LoginPageObject objLogin = new LoginPageObject();
FunctionTest cc = objLogin.FunctionAbcTest();
FunctionTest objAbcTest = new FunctionTest();
objAbcTest.SpeedTest();
}
Also change your Xpath to
[FindsBy(How = How.XPath, Using = "//div[#id='cssmenu']/ul/li[3]/a/span")]
public IWebElement UserForm { get; set;}
This will solve your problem.
And I think the site you have chosen is to use as an example to show why your function is not working. Probably, your original site id different. And it does not seems to be homework.
Please do let us know whether it worked or not.
Best of Luck in scripting your further code.

How To Connect C# with ACAD 2010

Work on vs2008 C#, Need help to connect with autocad 2010, I follow the following steps to connect but it gives me an error.
I have to add a reference, so I go to references>>add reference>>[COM TAB]>>Autocad 2010 type library>>[OK]
I use two libraries:
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common;
And then I use the following code to connect with AutoCAD 2010:
namespace Sample_CSharp_Acad_connect
{
class Program
{
private static IAcadApplication oAcadApp = null;
private static string sAcadID = "AutoCAD.Application.18";
static void Main()
{
try //get a running AutoCAD instance if avaialbale
{
oAcadApp = (IAcadApplication)System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.GetActiveObject(sAcadID);
}
catch(Exception) //none found so start a new instance
{
System.Type AcadProg = System.Type.GetTypeFromProgID(sAcadID);
oAcadApp = (IAcadApplication)System.Activator.CreateInstance(AcadProg);
}
if (oAcadApp != null)
{
oAcadApp.Visible = true; //could leave this false to hide Acad from the user
//do whatever with Acad
//oAcadApp.Quit();
}
}
}
Error message : error in getting object class COM for component CLSID

COM? Don't do it.
AutoCAD has a .NET API. See http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?id=1911627&siteID=123112 for resources from Autodesk. Also see the wiki here for more info and links galore: https://stackoverflow.com/tags/autocad/info

How do you run this code? Is it an exe file? As far as I know, it is not so easy to control AutoCAD using an external progam. There are often lizening issues which prevent such operations.
It might be easier to access AutocAD functionality using a DLL. In that case the object model of AutoCAD can be accessed directly:
Dim theApp as Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.AcadApplications = Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.AcadApplication()
Debug.Print(theApp.Caption)
The SDK contains a lot of samples for DLLs which can be loaded into AutoCAD.
And: If it isn't really necessary, consider using .NET!

How to register a service with Mono.ZeroConf?

I'm trying to test the ZeroConf sample at http://www.mono-project.com/Mono.Zeroconf.
I'm running OpenSuse 11 and Mono 2.2.
My server code is:
using System;
using Mono.Zeroconf;
namespace zeroconftestserver
{
class MainClass
{
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
RegisterService service = new RegisterService ();
service.Name = "test server";
service.RegType = "_daap._tcp";
service.ReplyDomain = "local.";
service.Port = 6060;
// TxtRecords are optional
TxtRecord txt_record = new TxtRecord ();
txt_record.Add ("Password", "false");
service.TxtRecord = txt_record;
service.Register();
Console.WriteLine("Service registered!");
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
But I can't find my registered service with the sample client browser code nor with mzclient.
Thanks!

I've also tried to use the binaries provided at the Mono.Zeroconf project page and building the libs from source for use on Windows and was unable to publish a service that was findable by other clients. I tried both the example code on the site and the MZClient provided.
After a little more digging I found a project that used to the Mono.Zeroconf libs. By using the binaries checked into the Growl for Windows project at Google Code (which appear to be the latest version 0.9.0) I was able to successfully publish a findable service with both the sample code and MZClient.
So an apparent work around would be to grab the binaries (Mono.Zeroconf and Mono.Zeroconf.Providers.Bonjour) from that project and use those instead of the ones provided by the project.

The binaries at mono-project.com/Mono.Zeroconf are out of date and still contain code that causes this problem. The most recent code (with all the fixes) is at this link
but require you to compile the code yourself.

I wasn't able to get a service published either. I looked through the code and there is a bug in Service.cs, the UPort setter:
this.port = (ushort) IPAddress.HostToNetworkOrder((int) value); //overflow, port is always 0
It should be
this.port = (ushort) IPAddress.HostToNetworkOrder((short) value);

Recompiling after updating the source from the following link solved the issue
https://github.com/mono/Mono.Zeroconf/tree/master/src

He is using mzclient to test his Mono.Zeroconf code above. The entire point of Mono.Zeroconf is to provide cross platform, multiple mDNS provider support (Avahi and Bonjour).
There appears to be an issue with the EntryGroup DBus Avahi API and I am looking into it in Mono.Zeroconf. I'll post a solution here, as well as make a new Mono.Zeroconf release (I am the maintainer of the project) when I figure out the issue.
