During the file copy, Label2 isn't being updated. In fact, my whole form goes non-responsive. How can I fix this?
I cannot do the following:
File.Copy(Application.StartupPath & "wait.exe", "%APPDATA%WAIT.EXE")
Can someone remind me how I got about copying a file to that location?
So, I have a task where I need to basically copy about 600,000 PDFs, some of which can be 5-6 MBs from one network fileshare to another network fileshare on another pc.Now, I crawled through the directories, sub-directories etc etc and created what I call a Filename/Filepath Database lookup table. This table contains the name and the unc fileshare path of each file which comes in handy.I have used Multi-threading and File.Copy to "copy" the files and I getting about 45K files per 4 hours which I need to be significantly faster then that and I am seeing performance degrade over time
View 1 RepliesI've got an app which uses a background worker to copy files. It works fine but some files are quite large and it "appears" as though the app isn't doing anything. Is there an alternative to the File.Copy method of copying files so I can report on the progress of individual file copies, like the percentage complete?

Now it seems to work fine, but I'm working with very large files (70+ GB) across a network (local copy is not an option) and while the function is executing if the user moves the application the screen can go blank and they can panic. What I want is a way to update something like a progress bar to give feedback to the user.
Alright, so in yesterday's thread, I asked for the codes to copy the contents of a directory to a separate directory. The code:
My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyDirectory( , , )
worked fine.However, I have decided that I wish to add a progress bar into the mix so that the user can see the progress of the transfer copy. So far:
I'm using "My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyDirectory(...)" to copy large directories (30-50gb) from one mapped share folder to another. Using "FileInfo.length" to add up all file and subfolder sizes, determines the 'origin directory' size just fine. However, if I use the same method for determining the size of the 'destination directory', mid copy, it returns the full file size, despite the copy not yet being complete.I'm at a loss as to why, as this method works fine in testing, going from a local PC t
Private Function FolderSize(ByVal dir As String) As Long
Dim Size As Long = 0
Dim d As New DirectoryInfo(dir)

I am wanting the most efficient way to copy a file with a progress bar updating the copy percentage.
This is the standard copy code I am using:
System.IO.File.Copy(source,target)
This is very fast and efficient. However, I cannot report the copy percentage.
I have tried many functions that read and save a file by opening up the filestream and then looping while reading/writing the data. This enables me to report the progress.
Here are the functions that I am using:
Public Sub SaveBinaryFile(strFilename As String, bytesToWrite() As Byte)
Dim position As Integer = 0
Dim BufferSize As Integer = 4096

I have created a simple Backgroundworker process to copy a large file (30GB). Is there any way to report the progress of that file copy?
I'm using System.IO.File.Copy to perform the copy. I've seen a few posts/blogs that suggest comparing the bytes copied with the size of the source file but that seems like a huge overhead in this case.
i am trying to figure out how to copy a file in the background and monitor its progress.
in VB6 i used the FileCopyEX API
so i wrote a quick application in VB6 that used the API, then opened it in VB2008, so it ran the upgrade wizard
i get one error message after the wizard runs

View 2 RepliesI am trying to create a log file which I am going to use to populate some controls (DataGridView or Treeview). I am trying to figure out if should use text files or XML files to do so. Effectively the log will highlight multiple phases in a client-side app. The log will be written to at various phases when the project is running. The user will always have the options move on to the next phase or save progress and exit the project. As such, I want the log file to highlight how far the user has progressed throught the various phases AND I want the log to highlight varous information from each phase. Whenever the user starts the project, they will be given the option to load existing log files. So the project will have to read these log files and append them where necessary as the user progresses.
I am not sure what the best way to do this is and below is a rudimentary approach using text files. As you can see, the top of the file would have a summary of all the phases and whether or not the user completed each phase. Next each phase would have a data section highlighting what data was stored along the way. I have used a ":" to denote each section. Then within each section I would obviously need to use a delimeter for all my data. So if Phase1 = True, then I would load all the pertinent data from "Phase1:" into the desired control. Can anyone provide an efficient way of doing this and provide some insight as to whether I should use XML instead. The phases my change during development and I am not sure yet which controls I will be using. Does XML provide more flexibility.
In summary I am looking to create, read/write and append log files and populate controls with the data in varous sections of the log file. Example:
Phase1 = True
Phase2 = True
Phase3 = False
Phase4 = False

Got a bit of a weird problem with a progress bar. I'm using a backgroundworker, which calls a "Process" function in a different class. The function goes about its business, and sends an update back to the form displaying the progress bar. What I'm finding is that its doing everything right, except update the progress and a label on the form. I've put breakpoints in to check the values of variables being sent to the form, and they're correct. I've also checked the value/maximum of the progress bar during the same break as I step through, and they're being set correctly.
they're just not displaying their updated status. I've tried refresh and application.doevents, to no avail. When the backgroundworker is complete, the values of the progress bar/label are as if I've never touched them! When the worker is complete, the Close button is enabled, so I know its finished. Anybody got any pointers/thoughts on this because I've been battling with this for a day and a half so far. I'm using the same technique as I've used elsewhere in the app to do similar backgroundworker progress updates, but this one refuses to work properly.

View 7 RepliesI have a program that uses IO.File.Copy to copy files from point a to point b. Its slow, which is fine because there rather large files. I was wondering if there is way to get an estimate time to copy a particular file(s).
Example: File a will take 1 hour to copy, File B will take 30 minutes to copy. Estimate Total Time: 1 hour 30 minutes.
I copied the code here and translate the code to vb [URL]it is working fine but there is one small problem but I cannot solve? Here is my code: SyncClientVB Another Source The scenario is... the progress is reported by an event (OnCopyingFile event)
