TCP File Transfer Using Byte Array 'Chunks'?
Jul 21, 2011
I've been trying to create my own backup system by sending specific files to a server running on my desktop, and then having those files copied to an external. So far, I'm trying to send files using a tcp network. Unfortunately, for soem reason, tcp cannot send more than 9kb at a time, so when i tried to send a 30kb image, it recreated 1/3 of it. My fix to this problem was to send data by chunks of 8kb, then reconstruct the file chunk by chunk. For some reason, when I run the server and client, the client says it sends all the data, however the server seems to be stuck. Here is my code;

trying to find a decent answer for my question; I do have a utf8 file which I (down)load, manipulate and wanting to save back again.The result always is that the file I produce is not in utf8 format;
Dim fs2 As New FileStream("c: est.dat", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.None)
Dim w As New BinaryWriter(fs2, Encoding.UTF8)

Using a modified version of jmcilhinney's TCP Client / Server system example, I have successfully sent bytes from the server to the client [on localhost]. However, when I try it with a friend, the file sizes become random [usually < 500kb of 1.9mb] , and the file also becomes corrupt. My friend also constantly receives the error "Object reference not set to reference of an object", and my localhost client also sometimes receives that error.
Why is the error occurring.
Also, here are some parts of the code I've modified that seem significant / important.

I'm not sure if I have this right to begin with because I can't test it without having it completed.

Some binary files have application variables at the end if you open it with a text editor you can see these variables. Now when I read these files into the processor memory the program does not work properly, however if I read a file without this it works fine. So how can I read a byte[] array to EOF so that when I pass that byte array into win32 api create-process it will create the process without corrupting the program?

I have this code which saves an "Image" to a SQL Server database:
vb.net
'You have the images in the PictureBoxes, now you need to store it as a Reference Image
'if the user has selected that option
Dim ms2 As New MemoryStream()
[Code].....
I am working on a PHP site at the moment that is having trouble reading that data to display the image, so I am attempting to not only save it to the DB, but also save it as a bitmap or other file type to the actual server.
How can I create an image file (not really picky on which file type) from the "arrImage()" data above?

I keep trying to encrypt a large file using this method: How to encrypt and decrypt a file by using Visual Basic .NET or Visual Basic 2005
However, these files can be upwards of 400MB. Naturally, I keep getting a system.outofmemory ex. Apparently, I can fix this by processing the file in chunks, but I haven't the slightest idea of how to do this.

I 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?

I have a large wikipedia dump that I want to cut into different files (1 file for each article). I wrote a VB App to do it for me, but it was quite slow and crapped out after a few hours of cutting. Im currently splitting the file into smaller 50mb chunks using another app but thats taking a long time (20-30 minutes for each chunk). I should be able to cut each of these up individually if I do this.
Does anyone have any suggestions of a way to cut this file up quicker?

I have a list of files and all of them have a different size. I need to upload them in chunks of 250Kb (or less if it's a small file or if it's the last chunk of a file).What I would like to do is read a bunch of chunks (lets say 15 chunks), in a separate thread, and then store the chunks of data in some sort of list. This list must be available to other threads.
An upload thread (I don't need help with uploading itself) takes the first chunk from the list and marks the chunk as "currently being uploaded". When the chunk has been fully uploaded, then the chunk is removed from the list. A second upload thread takes the next available chunk in the list that has not been set to "currently being uploaded", etc. There are a total of 10 upload threads working at the same time.
As soon as a chunk is removed from the list, then a new chunk of data is read and added to the list.Does anybody know what kind of list I need or how I should do something like this? I don't expect people to write out the code for me, but I have no idea where to start with this.

I need to transfer a block of pixel values as quickly as possible to a picturebox control. The data will be in a byte array representing 512 pixels by 4 lines. The data is greyscale values from 0 to 255 but I could easily store each value three times to represent R, G and B if that made it easier/quicker to write the values to the picturebox.I've used fastpix (by Vic Joseph "Boops Boops") in the past but this seems more geared towards fast plotting of individual pixels and as I have a pre-formatted block of pixel data I was wondering about alternatives. I've done a bit of research and BitBlt seems interesting, but can this be used with a byte array as the "source"? All the examples I've seen are for transferring/merging between bitmaps/pictureboxes. How about Direct Memory Access? I just need a simple "brute force" method of getting my pre-formatted data into the picturebox. Oh, when I say "fast" I mean I'd like to plot my 512 x 4 pixels in less than 10mS.

I have a byte array that I convert into a string like so Dim byt As Byte() = New Byte(255) {} s = New String(Encoding.ASCII.GetChars(byte))My question is when I look at the string in a debuger its clearly a normal string but when I compare it to what I know its supposed to be it doesnt equal. So i did a quick check and for some reason its return a string thats the length of 256 characters. So i did a s.trim and it still is 256 characters long.
