I'm sending an http request through a proxy using tcp, and then using a streamreader to read the netstream...The streamreader is supposed read each line up to </html> , however it doesn't seem to be waiting for the packet/response to be fully received, as it always returns only the first 5-10 lines of HTML.If I add a breakpoint at the line "Using sr", and pause it there for a few seconds and then continue the execution, it will return the full HTML up to the </html> as it should.This is the part of my code which reads the response.
Dim sendbytes As Byte()
sendbytes = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(ReqHeaders)
netstream = tcp.GetStream()
netstream.Write(sendbytes, 0, sendbytes.Length)

i am using visual studio 2008 using vb.net. I have opened an xml stream and am reading it using xmltextreader. So far so good. I am using the following code to parse the stream and to get an understanding of what it contains and how to use the info.

How can I intercept this XML that's being written as an XMLDocument type? I tried snagging it from the stream but that gave me a 'The stream does not support reading.' exception
I am sending data to server via TCP IP Connection. I am using a continuous loop at the server end - that accepts new clients and while streams can be read, it reads data stream.
The data is sent from the client with 2 leading bytes of data that represent the size of the packet of data sent and type of data.
My question is: how do I retrieve the size of the data packet and then check that this amount of data has been retrieved?

i need to read a large file stream binary my code is Dim sr As New IO.FileStream(srcFile,
[Code]..
I need to read signed and unsigned 8 bit, 16 bit and 32 bit values from a file stream which may be little-endian or big-endian (it happens to be a tiff file which carries the byte order indicator at the start).I initially started by writing my own functions to read the values and was able to do so for unsigned values. e.g.
Public Function ReadUInt32() As UInt32
Dim b(4) As Byte
input.Read(b, 0, 4)
[code]....
But then I started looking at signed values and my brain broke.As an alternative, I found the IO.BinaryReader which will let me read signed values directly but doesn't seem to have any way to indicate that the data is big-endian or little-endian.Is there a nice way of handling this? Failing that, can someone tell me how to convert multiple bytes into signed values (in both byte orders)?

in 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?
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.
I have a problem with the cryptostream, if i write the stream to a memorystream the memory that the stream used is still alocated and i have no way of unalocating it.what am i missingdoing wrong? im using-using on the streams,readers and crypto stuffs so the framework should shut them all down right? i tryed calling .close and .dispose but nothing ,in fact i moved it all over I have provided the sub that im using for the encrytion im in .net 4.5 so there is a lil async stuff but i know thats not the problem coz i moved this code out of my main app(.net 4) for testing to see if i could fix the problem.[code...]

I'm loading blobs out of a database as a byte array and I put them in a memory stream so that I can load them into an xmldocument for parsing.However there are blobs that have multiple root nodes, this causes the parser to blow up.My solution is to just make a new root node that encompasses the whole blob. I can add onto the end just fine with a streamwriter however I can't figure out how to add onto the beginning.How can I prepend to a stream?
Update:I was having too much trouble getting this to work. The "XML" I was extracting was not proper XML and I kept on having to add more and more regexes to remove bad XML before the XmlDocument Load. I ended up using the HtmlAgilityPack to parse out my valid sections of XML and I put those inside their own xml documents.
I'm writing a VB.net application (but you can answer in C# if you want, no problem) that uses a 3rd party .NET library. In particular, one method in this library takes an IO.Stream as input (among other things) and writes the results of its processing to said stream. My problem is that the method CLOSES the stream after writing to it, so I can't read back the data that it wrote in it!To be more specific: it works, of course, if the stream is a FIeStream , since it writes the data on disk, but what if I want to read the data directly to memory? I tried using a MemoryStream, but as I said, when the method returns the stream is already closed, and I can't read back anything from it.
Imports System.IO
Public Class CloseHijackedMemoryStream
Inherits MemoryStream

If the element is between a start tag and end tag such as

I cant get to anything beyond the word property.

I have an application written in .NET 4.0 that needs to load in memory a native DLL (written C). At the moment I am using a P/Invoke call to LoadLibrary passing the path where the DLL is located. This works, but due to the fact that this DLL comes from a DB, I would like to know if it is possible loading it through a stream, avoiding then the necessity to store the DLL somewhere in the filesystem.

The overlay works correctly. So question is: Why is the overlay not working from the stream? Edit: It turns out that the overlay does actually work, but seems to overlay an enlarged image rather than the true size. Would there be any reason for this?
I have created a httpwebrequest connection to a streaming API after trying a tTCPClient which just never ended up working. My concern is whether my code is correct and that I am actually reading in new data and that the connection is maintained. Initially I had been reading into a buffer and just loaded everything into a file after max size, but figured it would be simpler to read a line, since each entry was being sent delimited by line feeds.
rStream = webrequest.GetResponse().GetResponseStream
rStream = New GZipStream(rStream, CompressionMode.Decompress)

It looks like I am continuously reading and not sure if I am reading redundant data here. Also another question is that if I were to use a thread to appendToFile, would that maintain the connection to the stream?
