XML - How To Verify Entire String Loaded Properly

Dec 21, 2011

I have a script that attempts to load XML text from a URL and I am having difficulty figuring out how to check to see if it is valid, normalized XML. I don't have a schema as there are several variables which could change the XML format, I just want to check to make sure all of the opening tags are closed properly so I can verify that the entire string loaded properly.

Here is what I have right now.
Dim objResponse As HttpWebResponse
Dim objRequest As HttpWebRequest
Dim strXml As String
Dim newMembers As New DataSet
Dim xmlReader As StringReader
[Code] .....

I would like to add something here to validate strXML
' create a dataset from the XML file pulled down from the remote server
newMembers = New DataSet()
xmlReader = New System.IO.StringReader(strXml)
newMembers.ReadXml(xmlReader)

Assemblies Not Being Loaded Properly?

Sep 19, 2009

I have a windows forms Application using DCOM to connect to another server in order to retrieve data from a database. The program works perfectly fine on my develeopment box both inside of and outside of the idea.However it throws an exception on my test box: System.Exception.... TYPE_E_CANTLOADLIBRARY. The error happens when accessing a property of on the the public DCOM classes. The property holds an instance of one of the private classes for the DCOM. I've compared the registries and all the relevant entries seem to be the same. When I compared the dumps I noticed that System.Config and System.XML werent loaded on the test machine, even though they are installed and appear to be in the GAC.

Verify String Does NOT Contain A Value Other Than Known Values

Nov 28, 2010

I am trying to verify that a string contains nothing but known values. In this case, I need to make sure it contains only "Shift", "Control", or "Alt", but not necessarily all of those. For example, these should be true: "Shift + P", "Shift + Control + H", "Alt + U; but these should not: "Other + P", "Shift + Fake + Y", "Unknown + Shift + E" etc.This is the code I tried to use:

If Not shortcut.Contains("Shift") Or Not shortcut.Contains("Control") Or Not shortcut.Contains("Alt") Then
MessageBox.Show("Invalid")
End If

I'm having difficulty wrapping my head around the needed logic to do this. I'm assuming there's a logic operator that can do this?

One Liner To Verify XML String Structure?

Oct 8, 2010

I have a string: Dim strXMLTags As String = "<tags><test>1</test></tags>" And I want to verify that all opening tags have a closing tag in the proper place. So if I put the previous string through, it'd work. However, if I put: Dim strXMLTags As String = "<tags><test>1</test>" Then I want it to give me an error. Is there an XML structure checker or something of the sorts? Or should I just try and load it to an XML document and if it errors then, then I know.

Cannot Convert Swedish String To Currency Properly

Jun 28, 2011

I am trying to convert "-10,00" from a string into a currency using the Swedish culture. Here is my code:
ByVal ci As System.Globalization.CultureInfo("sv-SE")
Convert.ToDecimal("-10,00").ToString("C", ci)
The output from the above code is: -1.000,00 kr, which is wrong. It should be -10,00 kr. Is there anything wrong with my approach?

The solution is to pass the cultureInfo into the ToDecimal function as a second parameter.
ByVal ci As System.Globalization.CultureInfo("sv-SE")
Convert.ToDecimal("-10,00", ci).ToString("C", ci)

Parsing XML Loaded In Richtextbox (loaded From URL)

Dec 14, 2011

I have two rich text boxes, and two buttons on my screen. The first button grabs HTML from a URL and then converts the HTML to XML which resides in rich text box 1.

The second button is to grab the XML from the rich text box1 and then parse it to grab all the input elements by their ID.

My issue is that my parser isn't doing anything. My guess is that I'm not quite getting the XML from the first rich text box.

What would be the best way to grab the XML from a rich text box load it into memory and then parse the XML to grab all the ID tags?

Here is my code --

Imports mshtml
Imports System.Text
Imports System.Net

How To Verify If Value Actually Exists

.net - Verify User Log In Using LDAP?

Nov 17, 2011

I have not been able to successfully verify a user with LDAP for an ASP.NET web application. I have done so on our own network against Active Directory, but this is against a server outside of our network that is OID (Oracle Internet Directory).Usually, I use the following code with no problem.

Dim myDirectoryEntry As New System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry("LDAP://1.2.3.4:999/OU=SomeOU,DC=Something,DC=com")
myDirectoryEntry.AuthenticationType = System.DirectoryServices.AuthenticationTypes.Sealing
myDirectoryEntry.AuthenticationType = System.DirectoryServices.AuthenticationTypes.Secure
Try

[Code]...

After that, I haven't been able to find a method to verify a user's log in information with their password and then pull back some information.
