VS 2008 What Does This Line Exactly Do - I = Stream.Read(bytes, 0, Bytes.Length)

Dec 28, 2010

What exactly does this line do?

i = stream.Read(bytes, 0, bytes.Length)

Does it read the entire message string sent by the client? I have a line to write to the stream later in the code and that does not seem to be sending anything back to the client, although the code around is excuting.

i = stream.Read(bytes, 0, bytes.Length)
While (i <> 0)
Try
' Translate data bytes to a ASCII string.

File I/O And Registry - Modifying Bytes In File Without Rewrite

May 12, 2012

I've been trying for a long time to create a sorted table of values in a particularly specific way, and I seem to be running into a wall in .NET's file operations. The premise is this - I'm creating a table of values which are being stored as [1 Byte][2 Bytes][3 Bytes]. The location within the file is a value that relates to these three stored values, and so I'm attempting to seek to a specific position in the file, write the 6 bytes into that position, and repeat. There are literally billions of these values, and the total file size is over 100 GB.

Now, I've tried multiple methods to do this, but every single time, it decides it needs to rewrite the ENTIRE FILE every time any change is made. This results in every one of these billions of iterations taking a good 15 minutes, making the task literally impossible. I'm using .NET 4, and I've attempted to use Text, Binary, and Random Access to get it not to rewrite the entire file every edit, but it simply will not obey.

So my question boils down to this: How do I edit specific bytes in a file without writing more than just those bytes? The entire file has been pre-created to the precise size required, and no bytes will be added or deleted in the process. I simply need to overwrite the bytes that already exist.

Reading The First Bytes Of A File?

Mar 17, 2010

I've got a web app where I'm trying to validate that an uploaded file is .PDF. I can't use ContentType because if the user renames the file to have a ".PDF" extension, the browser reports the MIME type to be ".PDF" even if it isn't.

I understand that one way to "validate" that a file is a PDF file is to look at the first four bytes, which should always be "%PDF". How do I open and read the first four bytes of a file in VB.NET to see whether or not they are equal to "%PDF"?

Streamwriter Creates File, But Is 0 Bytes?

Feb 25, 2009

I am using the following code to write and empty (dummy) file to take up the remaining space on a device.RemSpace is a Public Variable declared as Long I have a function that gets the remaining space on the device and stores in the RemSpace variable (in bytes). I have tested with a msgbox to display the result of RemSpace, and it comes back correct (not 0). However, when the following code attempts to create the dummy file, the file is properly created but is only 0 bytes. What am I missing here?

Variables - Reading Bytes In A File?

Jan 2, 2010

After getting the file name I create a new filestream and load all the bytes from the FileStream into a byte array, now I need to get certain bytes and store them in fields like the second 4 bytes are the time the file was created. When storing these in the variables should I store them as bytes or as string/integers/etc.

Or have I done it completely wrong?

EDIT:Should I be doing this way instead of a filestream?

Dim data() as Byte = File.ReadAllBytes(path1)

Adding A Chunk Of 256 Bytes In Decimal Value From A File?

Sep 29, 2011

read each chunk of 256 bytes from a 32k file and then add the total value of each byte's decimal value. This will be some huge number which then needs to be converted to hex (Hex(number)and then truncate down to the LSB (I.E. 7F{4B}) and then convert the truncated byte (4B) back to a decimal (Num = Val("&H" & Num).

I don't really want to use GDI+ or the System.Drawing library, but simply apply a certain calculation/processing to every byte of the image file and get another array that contains the RGB values of every pixel in that image. I know it could be done as I know how to do it in a different programming language (Python) but not in Visual Basic.
