.net - Get Length Of Data Sent Over Network To TCPlistener/networkstream?
Jan 8, 2010
It seems the most obvious thing, but I just can't work out how to get the length of bytes sent over a network using a TCPClient and TCPListener? This is my code so far:
'Must listen on correct port- must be same as port client wants to connect on.
Const portNumber As Integer = 9999
Dim tcpListener As New TcpListener(IPAddress.Parse("192.168.2.7"), portNumber)
[Code]...
I need to get the length of the networkstream to set the size of the array of bytes I'm going to read the data into. But the networkStream.length is unsupported and does not work and throws an Notsupportedexception.
The only other way I can think of is to send the size of the data before sending the data, but this seems the long way round.

I am sending some data over a networkstream. The datasize is 97 The buffersize is 1. Data is a list of bytes. When the bytecount reaches 94 the do while loop exist itself.

I'm using the following code to get newsgroups from a server[code]...
When I execute the code, the routine only receives one block of the data. However, if I go into debug mode with a breakpoint at the loop instruction, I receive all of the blocks of data.Am I missing something in the code, like a wait or something, that would allow the program to receive all data like happens with the debug?

I have a device that is continuously sending text over a TCP port and I want to write a VB.net application that will read and evaluate this data. Each line of text that arrives over the port can be of varying length and each value in the line is separated by a comma. I need to separate out these values in order to take various actions based on their contents.
The following code appears to read the NetworkStream fine but when I try to read the data into an array and output one field into a text file the code is only catching a few lines of the high number coming through the port.[code]....

I am struggling a lot with this code I am trying to get to work. I have successfully made a connection with the TcpClient object to two separate remote machines and transmitted data to them. Essentially, I'm trying to connect to Machine 1 on port 80 and send a GET request. Once I send the request I want to keep the connection alive so that the software on the other side can send me data when it is ready. How do I keep the connection open and read data in each time it is made available in the stream? I have tried and tried using NetworkStream.Read and BeginRead to no avail. The closest I have come was sleeping my thread every 30 seconds and then doing another GET request which is not needed. Here is the current code I have for reading from the stream. I know I need a loop in here somewhere:Note: RemoteSocket is my TcpClient object that is connected by this point
Dim serverStream As NetworkStream = RemoteSocket.GetStream()
rqst = "GET /Control/Clip_Forwarding_Stream?CameraName=" & URL_Encode(Name) & " HTTP/1.0" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf

I have a TCPListener demo setup and working. The demo program has been supplied by Bill Chung, here:[URL]..the Listener uses a DataGrid to output whatever data is received but currently it doesnt store it.
Ive created a simple database and linked it to my project. what i need help with is getting the data that is currently outputted in the DataGrid to be stored into my DB table.

I am building a simple proxy in server vb.NET and so far it has been successful, but then whenever i receive data from the internet and write it back to my browser's network stream using NetworkStream.Write the received data tends to come up slowly to my browser due to reasons i do not know of. But when I chain my application to another Proxy/listener on my local computer (e.g Privoxy), data seems to come up very fast to my browser. If anyone has an answer to this I would really love to know.btw here is the part of my code {subroutine} that receives data and forwards to my browser.
Public Sub ForwardRequest(ByVal Client As TcpClient, ByVal ClientMessage As String)
Dim Browser As TcpClient = Client
Dim BrowserStream As NetworkStream = Browser.GetStream

Here is my idea so far: I have a bunch of computers connected in a local network. One of them is a MySQL server, one will have a vb.NET program wich will act as a "second server" and the rest will be different clients. What I want to do is that the "second server" will send out some kind of message or network package to some of the clients in the network, and they will execute a code based on what message it is, or what kind of package it is. I'll give you a simple example:

I have a piece of code written in Visual Basic:
Dim n As Double, i As Integer
n = 4
Dim Ramp_length(1 To 4) As Double
For i = 1 To n
Ramp_length(i) = Cells(13 + i, 5)
'Cells(65 + i, 7) = Ramp_length(i)'
Next i
Is there a way I can reproduce the result without declaring the array with a "fixed" length? I eventually want the code to read off a column of data with unknown length and store it in an array of equal or smaller length so it can be altered.

I have a string:
0E0100000000000000000003CB7352
I need to be able to look at Offset 14 and Length is 1B. I need to be able to look at bit 0 - bit 5. I have NO idea how to read data like this so I wish I could be more specific but I can't. Can someone tell me how to read the specific bits and translate them? I have no idea how to google this. So if someone wants to point me to a search pattern. That would be awesome too.
Here is a chart that describes the bits:
bit 0 : Light LED (head) status, 0: OFF, 1: ON
bit 1 : IR-Radar power status. 0: OFF, 1: ON
bit 2 : IR-Radar detector status: 0: fine, 1: barrier detected.
bit 3-5: Charger staus
0x00 : nothing happen
0x01 : charging completed.
0x02 : in charging
0x04 : something wrong, error occur.
bit 6,7: undefined, do not use.

I have a field displaying on a datagrid that the user has asked to be variable length based on the data that is returned. Is there an easy way to determine how many characters are returned for a field and then converting that to a pixel length so that I can change the length of the field in the code.

Oddly enough, I've worked around this issue, but it's still annoying me. I worked around it by sending too-long writes, with padded zeroes; the code works but sends a few hundred unnecessary bytes. Specifically, I need to send exactly 992-byte packets instead of 7 or 19-byte packets

A string can contain from 0 to approximately 2 billion (2 ^ 31) Unicode characters. Does this mean the length field for the string is a 4 byte unsigned binary field, or is it a 4 byte signed binary ?

I am working on a VB.NET windows applications. It reads data from a text file and inserts them into SQL server DB using SQL Bulk copy.I want to validate the length of all the fields in the file. The maximum length allowed for evey field is stored in tbFieldLength table. File has 50 columns and 10,000 rows and the values are separated by '|' symbol.
If the length of a value in any row is greater than the length specified in the tbFieldLength table, I want throw an error with exact row and column details. For example,saying
"Lenght of the value in Row 6, Column 20 is greater than the expected length"Also, I want to identify all the places if the error occurs in multiple locations. What is the best way to validate the length of fields in the text file?

I am creating an application that will be talking over the LAN (and eventually, WAN) which uses the Tcplistener and Tcpclient objects.Now, I have this working absolutely fine locally using the loopack address although when I change the IP of the listener to 0.0.0.0 (listening for all IPs) and the IP in the client application, to the IP of the server, it throws an exception when connecting. The client says something along the lines of the the server has rejected the incoming connection. So i disabled all firewalls temporarily but I still have the problem.I have ran netstat on the server which clearly shows that it is listening for an incoming connection on 0.0.0.0. [code]

I know it's subjective but this was the result I came up with based on the answer to me previous question and it seems a bit "slapped together", as I have changed it quite a bit:
[Code]...
Basically is there a better way to write this (even just part of the code) or a more efficient way to do it?
Basically the code is there to read all the bytes from a networkstream 1024 bytes at a time. And each time it reads the bytes it puts into one array which is returned.The thing i think might be better is only Redim byteTempbuffer if intRead is less than 1024 (the redim is to prevent empty bytes from being added to the end of the array when there are less the 1024 bytes left to read from the networkstream) (basically is it more efficent to Redim every time or to go through and if statement and redim only if needed)

I have an application that listens for connections asynchronously. When a connection comes in, it spawns a new thread from the callback method. This works fine for up to about 13 simultaneous connections then it dies with an out of memory error. The threads that are spawned just do a CHAP handshake and authenticate then go in to a command loop where they sleep until a command comes in or a timeout occurs. I have pasted the code below. Sometimes it will not throw an error but the thread never gets spawned although the connection is accepted.

Imports System.Threading
