I am trying to convert the image from 'System.Drawing.Bitmap' to 'System.IO.Stream', but i am getting an error.
the error is: Value of type 'System.Drawing.Bitmap' cannot be converted to 'System.IO.Stream'.[code]...
I ve the following stream but I don't know its encoding type because the stream reader detects encoding from byte order marks
Dim reader As StreamReader = New StreamReader(respStream, True)
so how can I detect the encoding type AND convert it to another type? (for ex. from ASCII to UTF8)
PS: What is the difference with the following line?
Dim reader As StreamReader = New StreamReader(respStream,
Encoding.ASCII, True)
I have found that an image can be stored as some string. To give an example I have included a ms word part that has an image.I saved a word file with image and saved it as xml format .when i opened the xml file in a notepad i got following section. It must be the image being stored as some stream of text. Is there a similar way to do it in .net.

I am producing an XML file in my unit test using
Public Sub rssParserTest
Dim Const rssUri as String = "rssTestFile.xml"
Dim xmlFile = <rss version="2.0">

I want to remove the unit test dependency on a physical file and use a stream instead but my efforts so far have come to nought. (Is this best practise?)I am using NMock2 for mocking if I should be doing something with that.
I'm working on a licensing system for my application. I'd like to put all licensing information (licensee name, expiration date, and enabled features) into an object, encrypt that object with a private key, then represent the encrypted data as a single text string which I can send via email to my customers.
I've managed to get the encrypted data into a byte stream, but I don't know how to convert that byte stream into a text value -- something that contains no control characters or whitespace. Can anyone offer advice on how to do that? I've been researching the Encoding class, but I can't find a text-only encoding.

View 3 RepliesI have built a simple image viewer in .NET and have the requirement to display multi-frame TIFF images in the browser. Presently, I have a (ashx) handler setup to stream back JPEGs that are co-mingled in the same database as the multi-frame TIFF's and it's worth mentioning that this handler will also return the first frame of the TIFF file in its current state. In the VB.NET code below (part of the handler) I am able to identify if a TIFF file has multiple frames and I started attempting to stitch the frames together but have not had any success yet. Has anyone returned multi-frame TIFF's using a similar approach? Note: I used the How to open a multi-frame TIFF image as a reference when developing the code below.

I've been reading the MSDN Library and I need to use the StreamReader.Peek Method to check a text file while a I parse it.
When I try to use the Peek Method, I get an error saying , "Peek is not a member of System.IO.Stream."
I don't understand why it is happening because I am following the examples on MSDN, and I even checked other sources and it seems like I am doing everything correct. I am hoping it is just something small that I have missed.
I am also importing System, System.IO, and System.Text.

I have a function that accepts a string and generates an email attachment based on that string. It works fine for html pages, text documents, and so forth but I can not get it to generate a PDF file.

If I save the file attachment as Whatever.PDF i get the error that it was not encoded properly.I am using datadynamics active reports PDF exporter to generate the PDF
dim pdf as new datadynamics.activereports.export.pdf.pdfexport

I think the problem is I am converting the PDF to a string, and then trying to convert it back to a PDF and attach it to the email but I am not 100% sure.

I am using Visual Studio 2005 and am writing a SSIS package. In the package I have a VB.Script that looks at a directory on a server and creates a list of the files. I then have a store Proc that looks at a table and gets a list of files that matches the files in the first array. The result is a fullresultset. The next step I need to create a 3rd array that only contains the rows from the first that are not in the second. However, I am getting the following error. Error: The script threw an exception: Unable to cast object of type 'System.Object' to type 'System.Collections.ArrayList'.
View 3 Repliesin an winForm app in VS2010 win 7 compiling to x86, I try to do what Alvas.Audio seems to work. See (c# ex: [URL] for reference.
Dim data() As Byte = wr.ReadData(second * i, second)
The result give me data.length()=0. I do not have any exception, I can read format from it and whatever reader I use I got this problem.EDIT : After some tests, it seems like the uncompressed file I create in the first step (in PCM format, with .wav extension) can not be recognized by the Alvas.audio library for the second step. I must miss something around Audio file markups or something alike.
Here is the code that might be the source (basically this is step 1):
Dim functOut As String = String.Empty
Dim wr As Alvas.Audio.IAudioReader = Nothing
Dim fs As IO.FileStream = Nothing

How can I write the resulted stream to be sure I can read it again later?
I just converted the following code from c# to vb.net. It is functional and works correctly with my company's firmware/devices. My next challenge. Previous serialport code used much more readable structs which where then converted (after building a packet) into byte() automatically as part of the serialport encoding. (this is my understanding)How could I
1. morph byte arrays 'ToSocket' and 'ToMTP' below into structs and
2. convert into byte array for Socket.BeginSend(byte(),.....) to stream out to remote devices?

Imports System.Text

Im making a desktop player for a online web radio, and for the program I wanna make it show all the stream info. Like the stream name, and such. However I dont know how to do this? I looked everywhere
The server url is setup like this "[URL]" And it has all the stream info and that there. So is there a way I can get the info from there onto like say a label? Live updates btw.
