.net - Retrieving Data After Using System.Net.Sockets SendFile?
Jun 8, 2012
I'm coding a simple TCP client/server in VB.NET to transfer files of all sizes. I decided to use System.Net.Sockets's command SendFile to transfer the bytes through the socket.
On the receiving side, my code to retrieve the bytes works fairly well, but occasionally the transfer randomly stops. I figured out that by putting a small sleep delay between retrieving the next block of data makes the transfers 100% stable.My code to retrieve the data (until there is no data available) is simplified as this:
While newSocket.Available > 0
Threading.Thread.Sleep(100)
newSocket.ReceiveFrom(data, Remote)
End While
I really hate using that sleep delay and figure there must be a proper method/function to retrieve data from SendFile?
Is there a way to determine if a System.Net.Sockets.Socket has sent data that has not been received/read by a specified remote endpoint with a connectionless protocol?It never hurts to try.
Event type clr20r3 p3 4a5c12c0 system.net.sockets.socket Exception and Application crash on some system. while running well on others. i go thorugh many forms and search a lot on google but not able to resolve the issue.
I have a chat program using System.Net.Sockets.Socket that works perfectly over LAN.My question is - will this same program work over the net with little or no modification and if so do i provide the client with the IP of my machine or of my router and use port forwardin
I'm using System.Net.Sockets namespace for connecting to an ftp server. If a user has to login to a firewall first though, I'm not too sure what to do. The following is what I have working for logging into an ftp server without a firewall. (The Else statement) Do you know what I might add to the if statement? In the method where this conditional is, I am passing a firewall username and password.
m_tcpClient = New TcpClient ' Try to connect to ftp site ' If using firewall, login to it first then issue another command to log in to actual
I'm attempting to discard the contents of a System.Net.Sockets.Socket send buffer using theSocket.IOControl(IOControlCode.Flush, .... Does anybody know whether VB.NET supports this command? I've tried supplying 'Nothing' and 'Nothing' for both required parameters, also empty and populated byte arrays in combination with 'Nothing' for both required parameters, but I consistently get an 'Invalid argument' exception. I've tried a web search for an answer, but the only mention I've found was a question asked about 8 years ago, with still no answer.
I'm using the below to update a form with system information of a remote machine - it's rather slow at populating the labels, if there a faster method than looping?:
I need to pull back the security descriptors for the active directory attribute "msExchMailboxSecurityDescriptor" on user account objects.So far, all I can find is that I need to use this class to do so, but I cannot find any example code of how to start to pull what I want out using it.I'm restricted to using .Net v2.0.
I'm completely new to sockets etc.I'm trying to create an app that'll allow someone to send short information messages to several other people with the same app, using the internet and sockets(?)I've tried using code from online, but I'm getting no where.
I have an array of IP addresses, and I want to send the same data to all of them. I could just send the loop code that sends data but I think there's a better way of doing this.
First let me start off by saying that I have dealt with Winsock for MANY years and am attempting to convert my project over from vb6 to VB.Net.This program was made to handle up to 70 connections at a time and constantly sending data from Server to clients and back.
There is one packet however, that reaches up to be around 177kb when sent. The sockets are set up to sent 1kb at a time.... (No other packet actually uses the whole kb). It seems that after the server sends this large packet... the client receives the data out of order. After debugging and monitoring I find that it normally happens between 3-4kb. While the first 3 are good and in order.My question is, is there a different system I should use instead of just Sockets (I have had similar problems with TCPClient) and/or can someone maybe link me to a sample project that would not have this error?
Occasionally I encountered this exception message while trying to download file from a server using System.Net.FtpWebRequest and System.Net.FtpWebResponse Object.
Download a file.ftpRequest_DL.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.DownloadFile get the response object Dim ftpResponse_DL As FtpWebResponse = CType(ftpRequest_DL.GetResponse, FtpWebResponse)
I have written a windows service that uses sockets to send receive data, it works fine when the server has been running and all other services have started, but after a reboot it does not work. Now I know its probably dependant on another service and I know how to add dependencies, but how do I work out which services its dependent on?
I have built a recursive file system crawler that amasses file system data from a file share. I use the FileInfo object to get my metrics, however, I am finding that in especially deep file structs, that the ol' 260 character MAX_PATH MS bug crops up ':8-0:'. This puts me in my angry place, since I do not seem to be able to get around it no matter what kind of programmatic tom-foolery I try.
So far, I have tried:- converting to 8.3 format --> no good path + filename STILL is > 260 (believe it or not) - tried to go with a Straight low-level API approach
What I have found is some pretty Sketchy information regarding VB implementation of the kernel32 api's in this regard (just try & find a createfile port for vb.net, I couldnt)
Anyway, I guess I was hoping that someone else has run into this pain, and knows how to make a surefire way to get a file's information (size, dates esp), regardless of how long and painful the path may in fact be...
I've spent a substantial amount of time trying to figure this out, but I keep getting the same error
A first chance exception of type 'System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException' occurred in System.Data.dll A first chance exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException' occurred in project1.exe
This happens when I try to use the DataReader.my code is
Public Function Identification() As List(Of Integer) Dim returnIndex As New List(Of Integer) Dim dbCount As String = "SELECT Bookingid FROM bookdetail WHERE Date =" & getCurrentTimeString() & " 12:00:00 a.m." Dim count As Integer = 0
i am trying to connect to an MS Access database and I am getting an erro message on the following line of
searchtable_command = New SqlClient.SqlCommand(searchtable_string, testsearch_connection) Error:'System.Data.Odbc.OdbcConnection' cannot be converted to 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection'.
Here my connection string:
Dim testsearch_connection As New Odbc.OdbcConnection("Provider=MSDASQL;Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};Dbq=C:CesarAccessdatabase.mdb;Uid=admin;Pwd=;")
I'm using a mysql as my backend database and i'm using the mysqldata adapter for binding the data, i have my data in the database, but the problem is i don't know how to retrieve it, for example when i want to add a record, before i add that record, i want to retrieve the data in my database to trap that the record i'm adding is an existing record
I have created a Client that can send and receive data via TCP sockets. The objects stored on the serverside are the *exact* same object used for the client. They use the same send and receive protocols.
Now, when i send a string from the server to the client , it does precisely what it should do. However when I send a string to the server.... I do receive the string as an equal length of NULL characters. I run the server and client locally.
Basicly what can influence the behaviour between two completely identical objects performing the exact same task? I wonder if there is some socketflag issue if the TCPlistener.accept function returns a completely different setup then the one I R used to.
(if it is of any interest, the send protocol is asynchronious)
I got a weird problem here like I got a site that users can post comments on a friend profile page.Everytime a user post a comment my application sends e-mail to that page owner, you know to inform for a new posted comment on his/her profile page.The problem is I want to stop the application from sending email if that user has just recently posted a comment say like 5 hours ago/earlier.Here is the function I use that would try to check it:
