im making a packet analyzer tool. im using sharppcap for packet capturing. the problem is i cant decompress Content-encoding:Gzip data from the packet. when i try to decompress the packet using gzipstream it gives me magic number in header is incorrect.

I am running a website using IIS6 and i wrote a simple generic handler which return smaller images when it receive image url as query string. My problem is that the server is applying gzip to some file types such as .aspx and .ashx.And that made my response image from the handler appear with lower quality because they are compressed
View 1 RepliesWe need to conditionally disable GZIP compression if user's browser is IE6 (it hangs browser for 5min) in few pages of larger site. Server is IIS7 and has compression for static content turned on - want that compression left working if user agent is not Mozilla/4.0. ASPX code sample anyone? Alternatively, code to conditionally redirect to the same page on another site (could create another virtual site with compression disabled) but need to pass all parameters (GET/POST).

This is the first time I am working on compressing and decompressing data. I have a byte array(a dataset before compression) which is an already compressed data and I want to decompress it. But the decompression is to be done in .Net Compact framework 2.0 and this framework doesn't have System.IO.Compression library to use GZipStream or DeflateStream.
View 1 RepliesBackground: I have read a bunch of techniques to handle compression. I don't think SmartZipLib handles 7z. System.OS.compression does not seem to handle rar or 7z. I am trying to find one approach for all.The tools within Windows XP seem to handle them all from inside the file manager (at least on my computer).Question: how can I decompress all these files using the windows utility? I am guessing it is some sort of Shell command. Alternatively, is there another option?
View 2 RepliesI would like to decompress/compress text files in zlib format.
Here's what I tried:
- Downloaded zlibwipa.dll from [URL] and tried to add a reference to it but got an error saying it is an invalid assembly.
- Downloaded DotZLib from [URL] but can't get it to work, error message: Unable to load DLL 'zlib.DLL': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)

This files are textfiles created from flash with ActionScript 3.0, but compressed, using the ByteArray class's compress() method. I know Flash uses zlib algorithm for this, and I would like to open and use this file from vb.net.
I am using something like :
FileOpen(1, OpenMapDialog.FileName, OpenMode.Binary, OpenAccess.ReadWrite)
Dim a() As Byte = {}
FileGet(1, a)

How do I decompress a zlib compressed file with byte arrays?
I am just experimenting with loading images into a picture box. I have a modest size image (1024 x 768). If I time how long it takes to load some images from disk and display into a picturebox diagnostics.stopwatch) it takes less than half the time to load a bitmap than a jpeg. The jpeg is 50k or so and the bitmap about 2 meg in size. So the read time from disk would be slower for the bitmap but decompressing the jpeg is obviously the really taxing part for my machine. Nvidia cards and the like have some really fancy hardware on them so I am wondering if there is a way to offload the jpeg decompression into the graphics card's expensive gpu making the whole process quicker: faster read from disk and faster displaying of the image. I had a look at a direct x tutorial that simply loaded an image as a sprite and it took ages. I am obviously approaching it from the wrong point of view.

View 12 RepliesI have done very little with encoding of Text. Truthfully, I don't really even know what it means exactly.
For example, if I have something like:
CODE:
Is that 'encoded' in memory in a particular format? Does that format depend on what language I'm using?
If I were in another country, like China, for example, and I had a string of Chinese (mandarin? My apologies if I'm using the wrong words here) would the following code (that I've used fine on English strings) still work the same?
CODE:
Or would it lose all meaning when you convert that .Net string to a UTF8Encoding when that conversion isn't valid?
Finally, I've worked with .Net for a few years now and I've never seen, heard, or had to do anything with Encoding. Am I the exception, or is it not a common thing to do?

I am writing a little project to parse a CSS file, and base64 encode all the background images.While I am able to parse the CSS correctly, it seems that everytime I try to convert the image file into a base64Encoded string, the string returned is always exactly the same.Please assume that all image paths are passing correctly to the method. In this instance, all images are fully qualified urls, so the first section of the method is what is doing the conversion.[code]

View 1 RepliesWe know a tolower function will turn all A to a How to turn all à to a.The purpose is I am creating ids for databases and id need to be unique. Sometimes the same stores are written as à in one place and as a on other places. This will create duplicate id problem.So I need a function that will turn all à and all of it's variation into a. The same way ě should become e.
Basically I would use utf8_unicode collation on my databases. Letters that count as the same letter under that collation should map to the same character under this function.I need to make sure that all other east asian characers are not affected in anyway.
I have a challange to convert the detected Encoding format of Text file to selected Encoding format. Like if the detected file is in Utf-8 and if user want to convert the encoding to Utf-16 or ANCII or Unicode. It will happen on one button click and the file will convert to the desired output encoding format.
Right Now I am able to detect the encoding but conversion not happening.
I have an application that collects a signature on a handheld device, saves the data as a byte array and transmits it to the pc. This came originally from a sample from MS. The sample works fine.In my case I am sending this signature back to the pc where it is received by a VB6 application and stuffed into a database and then there is a dot net program that can or should be able to pull that data and reproduce the image.
Due to certian characters that may appear in the data such as ' " Null and such I run a little replacement routine on the data before I save it on the device and run the reverse before I try to rebuild the image. This also seems to be working.
Now if I save the data as a file on the device and load that file into my viewer the sig shows up just fine. It works with both the file that has had the replacements done as well as the one which has not. However when I transfer the data via my vb 6 application the sig is then distorted when viewed.
I have written the data to file as it comes into the pc and again after it has been parsed and in both cases it does not match what was actually in the file on the device that is being sent and I can not for the life of me figure out what is going on here.
Code:
sBytes = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(DataString)
bSent = wSocket.Send(sBytes)
Code:
Winsock1(Index).GetData strData, vbString
When I compare the file created on the handheld device with the one created ont he pc from the data received it gets odd. In text mode both files look alike even with the terminal font enabled but in binary mode they are different.The first noticable difference in Hex View is a ways into the first line the file from the handheld device has C3 A0 but the file written on the pc has E0 instead from there on all bytes are shifted by 1 yet when I look at it in text view no bytes are shifted and the character displayed where C3 A0 is in one and E0 in the other is the same accented a character.
I have a byte array that I'm encoding to a string:[code]Then I write that to a file via IO.File.AppendAllText.If I open that file in 010 Editor (to view the binary data) it displays as this:47 43 44 53 79 73 74 65 6D 73 3F 0A 01 32 31 36..The original byte array contained 89 at position 11, and the encoded string contains 3F.If I change my encoding to Encoding.Default.GetString, it gives me:47 43 44 53 79 73 74 65 6D 73 E2 80 B0 0A 01 32 31 36.
