Reset File Attribute "Read Only" In MoveDirectory Function?
Jul 11, 2010
I have the following issue - I amcodinga move directoryfunction into my program. It all works fine except the resulting moved directory (the files within) appear(s) with a lock on them and they have become read only when they didn't start that way. I'd like to prevent the read only attribute from happening. Below is the code which moves the directory. I put it into a backgroundworker.
Private Sub bwMove_DoWork(ByVal sender
As Object,
ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs)
i have a coundown time in which will trigger once i run my main screen in my "MAIN SCREENFORM" ....... I create a "RESET button" on other form call "FORM2" , now the problems is how should i write the code when i click reset button it will reset the count value my lblcountime.text and start re-countdown again from the start?
Public Sub MainScreen_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load timeleft = 120 lblCountTime.Text = "120 seconds"[code].......
I am using VS 2005. I tested this code My.Computer.FileSystem.MoveDirectory("D:dir1","D:dir2") when I am moving a source directory to a destination directory its moving all subdirectory of source directory except the main directory... like the above code.... "dir1" not moving into "dir2" itself its moving all subdirectory of "dir1" into "dir2" except the main directory "dir1" itself..
I've got a textbox with a mousehover event and that event will only happen once and then I have to move my mouse out of the text box before it'll happen again. Is there a way to reset the mousehover event 'trigger' so that it happens as many times as I want?
I was just wondering if someone could tell me if reading attributes is handled easily within the ConfigurationManager class since I am unable to find an easy way to do this (or a decent example via google). Basically I have a configuration section that looks like this,
I'm tryign to read a specific attribute from a xml website using this code:
'this is the url im trying to read, tmpIn is a string that complete the url: Dim url As String = "http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=" & tmpIn & "&output=xml" Dim reader As New XmlTextReader(url)
[Code]....
The problem is tmpIn takes diferents values (string) when the function is used and sometimes this works, and othertimes it gives an error (Invalid character in the given encoding. Line 9, position 15.), but is not because of the url, is when it tries to read the coordinates...
I have created a few WebRequest extension methods that support cancelling. Is it possible to mark related .net framework methods as Obsolete. That will allow other developers to get warning and encourage them to use a new extension methods.
I am using VB 2008 express and I am reading text file line by line in assist of EOF function. Problem is, that this function doesn't read the last line (In VB6 works properly). I want to ask if this problem on my side in my code and how to solve this problem with reading the last line.
Try FileOpen(FileNumber, InputFile, OpenMode.Input) Do While Not EOF(FileNumber) LineInput(FileNumber) NumberOfLines = NumberOfLines + 1 Loop Catch MsgBox("Error loading file") Finally FileClose(FileNumber) End Try
I am trying to create a form that opens a text file and displays the text in the textbox on my form. I am supposed to use a function to get the string of text from the file. Then I am supposed be able to click a button to call on the function. I have to use the OpenFileDialog to get the file and the path of the file can be anything (it is not a certain file). I am having a lot of trouble figuring out how to get this to work. I have tried coding it and this is what I have come up with:
Public Class Form_BaseClass Function ReadFile() As String Dim OpenFileDialog As New OpenFileDialog
I'm adding in asp.net (vb) an attribute to an image-button: imgButton.Attributes.Add("myAttr", "true") This is working fine. Now I want to read the attribute, but it does not work: If imgButton.Attributes("myAttr") = "true" Then ..doSomething.. How do I get this thing working?
I have an asp.net repeater. In this repeater I have in each itemtemplate two image buttons. If I'm clicking on an imagebutton, the other imagebutton in this row changes it's URL. I want that this URL is saved, after clicking on another row's imagebutton. So I'm adding in the repeater event ItemCommand Dim imgButton As ImageButton If e.CommandName = "imgBtn1" Then imgButton = CType(e.Item.FindControl("imgBtn1"), ImageButton) imgButton.ImageUrl = "myURL" [Code] ..... While debugging, it still skips everything, because all Attributes are empty (but actually they are not)!
How do I set ListView data through the codebehind instead of using the Bind() function in the Text attribute?Right now I'm doing the following, but I'd like to have it retrieved and set in the codebehind. I'm using VB..
Ok, so I am building my own program to control a video player I have through telnet, I have everything else working except one thing.I have a reset button to reset the player, when I press it, it sends the string "Reset" and the unit resets without a problem.But when I add a code to close the winsock connection upon reset, it doesn't send the string to the unit. I am sure what is happening is the winsock is getting closed at the exact same time it is trying to send the string and so it fails to send, how do I make it close winsock AFTER the string has been sent? [code]
I get an error when I try to build my project.'SSLAccessFiltercannot' be used as an attribute because it does not inherit from 'System.Attribute'. [code]
I developed an application wich places some files in the programsfolder. If i manualy delete one of these files wich are not realy important for the application then when i restart the application i see that somthing like an installer places the original file back again in the folder. Someone can explain why and how i can stop this from happening? I would rather create the file during installation but i still cant find out how.
I've a very strange problem with the localization and the default language resx file.I can add a string entry in the file with no problem. After moving or resizing any of the object in the form, the default resx file, resets itself and then my entry is deleted.Has anyone had the same problem??Unfortunately I can't attach a test project I made, 'cause of some security policies of my network. This is the list of operations you have to do, in order to replicate the problem:create a new windows form project;add any object (ie button) and then change its text property to "Example";set the form's property Localizable = Trueselect one of the language in the form's Language property;change again the text property to "Example 2";get back to the "(default)" entry of the language property;open the Form1.resx file then add a string entry, finally save it;try to move or resize the object into the form and then open again the Form1.resx file. You'll se the entry just for a while and then the file resets itself.

I have an app that reads the file attribute to determine if it is normal, readonly or archive. Nowhere can I find the numerical values that equate to normal, readonly or archive, however I have debugged & found that archive is 32. The files on the cd are 33, what type of attribute is this and where is a list of all numerical values that equate to a file attributes type?
I have a txt file that I need to read into a listview, but I need to read from a specific line in that file. Below is a sample of the txt file to read,
I am trying to read through a bunch of sub directories checking to see if the archive bit is set on any file and if so then I intend to create a zip file of the entire folder as a backup copy and then I need to reset the archive bit.
The problem is that I do not want to change any other attributes that may be set and for some reason I do not see a way to retain these while clearing the archive bit.
I am also not sure if the method I am using for checking the archive bit will work correctly in cases where the file is also read only or hidden or other such attribute.
I've been linking to an external config file using <appSettings file="blah"> since VS 2003. I just created my first 2010 project, and I get no data from my file, nor any error. [edit]This functionality works as expected when I point to 3.5 framework.Another note, if I copy the other config to the debug directory and reference it by file name it works. When I use the UNC path it doesn't. The UNC path has worked for many of my past projects. Maybe it's a 4.0 security setting somewhere?
I have an XML configuration file to which I will occasionally add new elements and, for ease of reading outside of the application, I want to keep it sorted alphabetically - by the "key" attribute of the "add" elements.After a lot of trial and error - using code I've gleaned from here, there and everywhere - I've come up with the code below. It appears to work okay, but I'm only just starting to learn Linq to XML, so I'd like to know whether this is an appropriate method or if there is a better/ more efficient method I've missed. It just feels like I might be taking an unnecessary step in recreating the entire file element.
Dim newEx = cfgEx.<appSettings>(0) newEx.Add(<add key=<%= sNewKey %> value=<%= sValue %>/>) Dim sortEx = <configuration>[code]....
EDIT: I think I've worked out a better way to do this - without explicitly recreating all the parent tags in thesortExvariable:
Dim newEx = cfgEx.<appSettings>(0) newEx.Add(<add key=<%= sNewKey %> value=<%= sValue %>/>) Dim sortEx = From c In newEx.<add> Order By c.@key Select c newEx.ReplaceAll(sortEx) cfgEx.Save(sXmlConfigFile)
