I'm trying to combine 2 byte arrays and then create a new byte array that contains the contents of both but running into a problem. The error says 'Source Array was not long enough.' I'm trying to combine HeaderByteArray and bytBuffer into newByteArray. I don't understand what Source Array is not long enough means and how to correct this.[code]...

View 2 RepliesI have 2 byte arrays. I want to merge these two byte array into 1 byte array.Usually, I just create a new byte array with length = byte array #1 + byte array #2. Then copy byte array #1 and #2 to the new byte array.do I have more efficient way to merge 2 byte array using VB.NET and .Net 4?

View 5 RepliesA project requires to allocate a varying number of byte arrays (buffers).
It would be ideal if the following definition would be possible:
Dim ArrayOfBuffers() as buffer(10000) as Byte
The byte arrays must be ordered sequentially because they have to be written to a file by efficient procedures destinationFile.Write(ArrayOfBuffer(3),1000,1000)
The number of buffers will change during program execution sometimes. Therefore it would be nice to be able to do a ReDim on the data structure when needed.
I am in need of encrypting a byte array, but my encryption method that I found strictly deals with strings.
Here are the two pieces of code that I am dealing with.:
The byte array (the bytes that need to be sent encrypted)

I am having some major problems with byte arrays. First off the bigger array I have the more values go missing, I originally wanted to make a huge array and just dump like a 100mb chunk of memory in it but when I did that every byte in the array returned 0. So I experimented a bit and found 4kb to be the biggest chunk size to reliably not return 0.. ok I figured I'll just loop the 4kb and glue them back together later but no such luck, after being combined into the main array the bigger the number gets the more values that should be there just aren't.
Here's a code sample:
Dim retval(4095) As Byte
Dim combval(RLen) As Byte
For i = 0 To RLen - 4095 Step 4096
ReadProcessMemory(ProcAccess, i, retval, 4096, 0)
retval.CopyTo(combval, i)
Next i
WriteLine(combval(321603964))
WriteLine(ReadMemory(321603964, 1)(0))
So with the last 2 lines if I pull up some smaller number like 8 digits or so it reports back no problem but anything slightly bigger like the number i have written in there right now is just 0. After some additional research I discovered that the reason why 4kb is the max size I can reliably get is coz that's the size memory chunks are made of, "page" as they call it. Why the memory reading drops off at higher addresses alltho I suspect it has something to do with the way memory is structured and I am just not hitting the startpoint of a page anymore due to an offset or something somewhere.
I have an aspx page which houses an iframe. When a button is clicked, a WCF is called to produce a PDF which is read into a byte array. I was storing the byte array in a Globals.vb file like this:
Public Shared PDF_Data as Byte()
The global was loaded from the parent aspx page like this:
PDF_Data = MyWCF.Create_PDF_File(SomeVariable)
After that, the iFrame's src was set to a blank aspx page, which had the following code in the page_load event:
'Write the PDF binary data to the screen (viewer)
Response.Clear()
Response.Buffer = True
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"
Response.BinaryWrite(Globals.PDF_Data.ToArray)
However, realizing that this application will have several users who will get different PDF documents, I have learned that this is not the way to go. My shared variable would be accessible to all users, a big no-no.However, I am stumped as to how I'm going to store the byte array and make it available to a child aspx page from it's parent.
The relevant code below is not achieving what I hoped it would. I intend for
1. SerialPortBufferTemp to be used as the container for each Serial Port Read.
2. _buffer should contain the resultant array from two separate Reads, the second appended directly after the first.
(E.g. 60 bytes read on the 2nd Read will be appended to the 168 bytes received on the first Read (228 total resultant byte length))
The problem with my code below is that _buffer has increase in size from 300 bytes to 600 bytes, skipped bytes 168 to 300 (leaving them all zeros) and added the remaining 60 bytes from the second read beginning at _buffer[300].
private List<byte> _buffer = new List<byte>();
byte[] SerialPortBufferTemp = new byte[300];
serialPort1.Read(SerialPortBufferTemp, 0, iBytesRead);
if (iValidRecordCtr == 0) {
_buffer.Clear();

Working with System.Cryptography, I'm noticing that data arrays up to a certain size will either conform to the size of the Initialization Vector (IV) or the size of the Key provided. So with a 48-byte Key and a 32-byte IV, up to around 42 bytes of data will encrypt to 32 bytes and 44+ will encrypt to 48 bytes of data. I've tested this with a variety of data arrays, and it seems to always come out the same... but I have a concern that higher byte values in the original array may result in longer encrypted arrays.
how or whether I can construct byte arrays that will be guaranteed to come out of Encryption at a pre-determined size?
I can open a file in a hex editor and know that each 2 digits is a byte, they are 8 digits in binary correct?
How are they stored in arrays in VB.NET?
So if I have:
Dim xx() as byte =
What would I put after the equals? The hex digits from the hex editor? (This is just a program I'm not going to save, basically I don't want to open files to get etc. I want to put in the bytes in the code.)

Is it possible in VB to truncate a larger data type ( an int with a value greater than 255) to a smaller one, say a Byte (which only goes up to 255) in a way such that the 8LSBs of the integer are copied to the newly created byte. I have tried this using CType with the following code, however it does not work.
Dim TestByte As Byte = CType(Test, Byte)
Where the variable "Test" is an integer with a value of 419. This code always results in the Overflow exception.

In VB6 I load a recordset containg all of the records (6 fields per record)in a table into an XArray and then manipulate the records in the array and then write them back to the original table. The array issorted by the first field (1 to maybe 8000 or more) I need to find records in the array by an ID field and then move them (because of some external criteria that happens many times) from say number 400 to number 375. Then all of the other records between 375 and 399 were renumbered up 1 to fill the gaps left by the move.
The XArray worked well as it could find and also move to a next record easily to facilitate the revisions to each record quickly. Everything is done in VB6 in code and nothing visual needs to be shown to the user until say 2000 of these external changes are complete. What is the best, most efficient way to do this in the .Net framework in VB2010. Datasets, Dataviews. tableadapters, arrays. enums ?

I have a VB.net console app and I am opening a function in a dll written in fortran. I am passing 3 arrays through the function by reference. When they come back out the otherside they ahve all tunred to arrays of only one element And that element is 0.I read on the internet somewhere that when doing this kind of thing it is a good idea to only pass the first element of the array into the function.I tried changing my function declaration to accepting single elements rather than single dimensional arrays, and now the arrays are the same length before and after the function call, but they don't seem to be changing at all, so i'm not sure that this is working
