Why does this programmer use a binary reader to read bytes, why not the client.getstream.read or streamreader?

I want to read 15 bytes of data starting at byte 40 and ending at byte 55. I then want the value of the 15 bytes of data to print to textbox5. I know this should be a simple task but I'm having a lot of trouble figuring this out.
View 10 RepliesWhat exactly does this line do?
i = stream.Read(bytes, 0, bytes.Length)
Does it read the entire message string sent by the client? I have a line to write to the stream later in the code and that does not seem to be sending anything back to the client, although the code around is excuting.
i = stream.Read(bytes, 0, bytes.Length)
While (i <> 0)
Try
' Translate data bytes to a ASCII string.

I am using BinaryReader class to read binary file.But I am facing problem while reading number of bytes from it.I have written code to read only 2 bytes from it,it works well on my machine and read only 2 bytes,but when I deployed that code on server machine it read 4 bytes from file.Whats wrong in the code?Is it due to processor i.e.. 32 bit processor/64 bit processor.
View 2 RepliesI need to parse a binary stream in .NET to convert a 16 byte unsigned integer. I would like to use the BinaryReader.ReadUIntXX() functions but there isn't a BinaryReader.ReadUInt128() function available. I assume I will have to roll my own function using the ReadByte function and build an array but I don't know if this is the most efficient method?

Can you delete stuff inside of a file after you have committed it to the binary file? I noticed that you can still read the stuff inside of a binary file.Also is there a step by step tutorial for the binaryreader and writer

I have seen countless examples of reading standard output from command line applications which print text to the screen and one can read that back into the application as a string. I want to read the binary data back that is written to standard output from something such as image magick's convert program. What is coming back is an image, not a text result or error code. Is this possible? I have been looking for ages but found nothing that makes sense.

I am trying to write and read bytes from usb device.I have an array dout(8) of boolean say f,t,t,f,t,t,f,t representing switch states.I need to convert that to a variable DataOut as byte. 01101101 Later I read the usb device.This gives me a variable Data as byte 10110100 I need to convert that to an array DIn(10) of boolean t,f,t,t,f,t,f,f All my code attempts have failed.

I am using sockets and such for a while now, and want to go an step further in this. Now for example lets say an client would send [lenghtofstringinbytes]string[somethingelseinbytes]another thing.
How can I send/read/parse it?
Now I am doing this:
Private Sub onDataArrival(ByVal ar As IAsyncResult)
Try
Dim obj_SocketState As StateObject = CType(ar.AsyncState, StateObject)
Dim obj_Socket As Socket = obj_SocketState.WorkSocket
Dim sck_Data As String

So using Getstring for it, but thats not the way for this as you get nothing else but an empty string back. So I have to parse it without converting it to an string.
I have a timer control that sends data to a hardware every 3 seconds. I sent 6 bytes of data. In return I am expecting 8 bytes of data in DataReceived event. First time I send 6 bytes of date, in DataReceived event, I get the expected 8 bytes. Then in next 3 seconds, again the expected 8 bytes of data is received. But after that I find that DataReceived is fired 2 times: first time I get 6 bytes and then I get 2 bytes. After that I again get 8 bytes as expected. So in short, 2 times I get 8 bytes as expected and 6 bytes and 2 bytes and again 8 bytes. This pattern is repeating continuously. Why? Is there any reason why I cannot get all 8 bytes everytime?

I'm working on a project involving reading RFID tags, I've written the code and it reads the tags ok by using the recieved data handler and displaying the result in a listbox, the only problem is that the data displayed has a couple of unreadable characters at the start (I'm using ReadLine() command.)If I read the buffer byte by byte the data is all readable.How can I read and display the whole 16 Bytes in one go??

I want it to do is that you input a string, then you select an algorithm (Theres only going to be one RijnDael) then you input a key, then the Initialization Vector comes from "txtIV.text" then you select the key bytes and the block bytes from the numeric up/down, then you either encrypt or decrypt.

I have tried to create a method for writing information from an instance of a class to a binary file. The code works fine, the only problem is finding the end of the file. After it has read the last value that should be read, the basestream.Length is still higher than basestream.Position (by a random number)In my case I have created a class with two fields (name and birthday), one that is string and a date field. With my code, this should write 5 lines to the file (classname + nameofNameField + StringValue + nameOfBirthdayField + DateValue) When reading there's still more information in the file, when I have read the DateValue. Why? How do I find if it has read the end of the file?

I want to display photos of people when the mouse passes over their name. I wanted to be able to size the picture box to be proportional to the various photographs and let the Stretch property handle the rest.I used the code above offered by John Wein to a question from 2009 to read the dimension of the picture It worked fine until I pass over the same person twice. Then I get an error that the file is in use by another process.I tried adding:
"BR.Close"
With and without
"BR.Dispose"
But the file is still locked-out on the second pass. I tried setting "PictureBox.Image = Nothing" when the mouse leaves the square, still the file is seen as in use and locked.
I created a subroutine to copy and paste a file using the binaryreader and binarywriter. It works fine from what I can tell. The file sizes match up any how but I was wondering if anybody had an idea on a better way to get the amount of bytes that should be copied in one set.
binwriter.Write(binread.ReadBytes(100000)) I want to make the readbytes as large as possible without crashing the users computer.
