C# - PDF File Is Damaged And Cannot Be Repaired When Moving Memory Stream To Filestream?
Jun 5, 2012
I am using iTextSharp with VB.Net to stamp images onto PDF documents. (Since this is not language specific I tagged for C#, too.)I have two applications using the process.The first uses the bytes from the memorystream to display the PDF documents online. This piece is working. The second uses the same function but instead saves the PDF to a file. This piece generates an invalid PDF.
I have seen some similar questions, but they are all creating a document initially and have a document object in the code. Their memory streams are corrupt from the outset. My code does not have a document object and my original memory stream opens fine.
Here is the place where I get the error: (I have to put the buffer from m into a new memory stream because the stamper in the fillPDF function defaults to closing the stream unless marked otherwise.)
Dim m As MemoryStream = PDFHelper.fillPDF(filename, Nothing, markers, "")
Dim m2 As New MemoryStream(m.GetBuffer, 0, m.GetBuffer.Length)
Dim f As FileStream = New FileStream("C: emp.pdf", FileMode.Create)

I have a new problem with this same Form Printing project and I get exactly the same exception but from the different point of code:
line 538: d.PrintFunction(c, typePrint, mp, x, y, extendedHeight, ScanForChildControls)
The exception type is System.AccessViolationException and it says (after I translate it from my own language in which the message is given in my pc, into English):"Protected memory was tried to be read or written. This often indicates that the other memory is damaged"

I don't know whether it is simple or not because i am new to programming. my requirement is : In my vb.net winform application, the filenames of the files present in "D:Project" willbe displayed in DataGridView1 control. Now I want to load these files one after another into memory stream buffer and add the headers("ID","Name","Class") to the content in the file. Then I want to save these files in "C:" with "_de" as suufix to the filename i.e.,sample_de.csv.

How to convert memorystream byte array to csv file. I have GetExport method that converts rpt file to excelformatted memorystream and then returns that as a byte array. Is there a way to convert this byte array to a csv file? Due to some reasons I can only pass this byte array back to calling function.
Public Function GetExport(ByVal reportID As ReportID) As Byte()
Dim byteArray As Byte() = Nothing
Using expRptDoc As ReportDocument = New ReportDocument()
Dim rptFileName As String = Server.MapPath(ReportCommand.GetXMLReportPath(reportID))

I am working on vb.net win form. My task is display the file names from a folder onto gridview control. when user clicks process button in my UI, all the file names present in gridview, the corresponding file has to be loaded onto memory stream buffer one after another and append the titles to the content of the file and save it in hard drive with _ed as a suffix to the file name.I am very basic programmer. I have done the following attempt and succeeded in displaying filenames onto gridview. But no idea of later part.

I have a user interface app that allows you to drag/drop in files - and it turns them into HttpListener request POST's to another EXECUTABLE that I have running - let's call it BACKEND1. BACKEND1 will be running on a SERVER when this gets ready for production use. Lots and lots of users running the UI - all dragging in files - all getting POST'ed to BACKEND1 - with the file included as a memory stream in the POST. BACKEND1 responds to the UI with a "sequential" file number assigned to the file centrally on the server.
On the SERVER is also running another EXECUTABLE - let's call it BACKEND2. It's job is to work with the DRAG'd in files. Both BACKEND1 and BACKEND2 sit on the same SERVER. At the moment I am writing the memory stream to DISK in BACKEND1 - and POSTing the FILENAME to BACKEND2 for it to work on. Would it be better to not write the file in BACKEND1 but instead include it in the POST to BACKEND2 - where it can be written to DISK? Is having LARGE HTTP REQUEST's a burden when sent between two EXECUTABLES on the same machine?
My primary goal is to have a really available BACKEND1 talking the the UI instances running out in the world. I'm concerned that doing the file i/o in BACKEND1 is "expensive" - and I don't care about the performance of BACKEND2 as much. just looking for opinions. I guess ultimately I'll have to bench mark this myself in a production environment to get a real answer.

I have a function that accepts a string and generates an email attachment based on that string. It works fine for html pages, text documents, and so forth but I can not get it to generate a PDF file.
Code:
Public Sub SendMail _
( _
ByVal strFrom As String _
[code]......
If I save the file attachment as Whatever.PDF i get the error that it was not encoded properly.I am using datadynamics active reports PDF exporter to generate the PDF
dim pdf as new datadynamics.activereports.export.pdf.pdfexport
sendmail("from@", "to@", "test", "test", pdf.tostring, "pdf.pdf")
I think the problem is I am converting the PDF to a string, and then trying to convert it back to a PDF and attach it to the email but I am not 100% sure.

I'm using the ShockwaveFlash ActiveX control in a VB.NET Windows Forms application and i'm wondering.Is it possible to load an SWF file into the ShockwaveFlash ActiveX object from a memory stream rather then from a file name?
I've noticed that the ActiveX object has such properties as "InlineData" and "MovieData", possibly these could be used.
I've also noticed someone has used Windows Messaging to send a pointer to a stream to the ActiveX control, has anyone seen this done?

I have an application that sends Bytes of data through UDP, these bytes are read from an AVI file when the client receives the bytes it builds the AVI file on another computer perfectly but I want to be able to use the received bytes to play the video from the stream. Does anyone know how I can play the video from a stream? I tried using DirectShow but I don't know how to use a stream as video let alone having AVI files play with DirectShow.
My main goal is to have the application slowly "buffer" the movie for the client as they watch.

I have a module which will be responsible for parsing CSV data received from different user via a website interface, and I have to parse that CSV. I was considering to use, TextFieldParser for it.
But before I could implement I was considering what shall be a better approach...
Generating MemoryStream from data received,
or initialising a StringReader from the same input string.

I'm writing some text to a memory stream and need to modify it once in the memory stream The reason I can't modify prior to adding to the memory stream is that it is from some 3rd party component. Here is an example:ms = New MemoryStreamdoc.Save(ms, SaveFormat.Html)I need to do some modification to the resulting text that ends up in ms. Is there a way to convert the contents of ms into a string, and then back into a memory stream once modified?

is this possible to do in memory (so i can get rid of any disk IO)?:
If File.Exists("c:MyImage.png") Then
File.Delete("c:MyImage.png")
End If

This above code works great the first time then errors out on any successive attempts after that with the file being used by another process at the File.Delete line. The image is being generated for use as a mail attachment and i've only ever done it via a phyical file on the disk.

The goal is to write data to a SQL Server 2008 FILESTREAM file using VB.Net. An "Access Denied" message occurs when creating a FileStream object in the code(see red underlined code below). SQL Server 2008 is configured to "Allow remote clients to have streaming access to FILESTREM data" along with "Enable FILESTREAM for Transaction-SQL access"... What configuration setting is missing and causing the "Access Denied" message? Figure 1.) Code used to stream data to SQL Server managed file

I have implemented the filestream feature of SQL Server 2008 in a VB.Net application. I can insert files, and then retrieve/view them just fine. However, I have huge problems trying to update a file. Eg. The user selects a file from the grid which I execute via process.start. If that file is a .txt file, the user may choose to edit it. In case that happens, I need to save the changed file back to the database. So far I have failed to do that.
What I do, is take the retrieved file, copy it (cause i got some errors about it being used), and then Process.Start it. After that, via .NET filestream, I convert the file to bytes and try to update the record. SQL Profiler and a manual SELECT on the varbinary(max) column tell me that the file is updated properly, but the very next try to retrieve it I get an unchanged file.
After that I also tried to update the file by changing its File-System Version, but the file still wouldn't seem to update. Does Anyone have a code sample of how I can achieve this operation? Like 500 sites on the internet have examples of how to Insert And Retrieve the file, but not a single example on how to update. This is how my second attempt of trying to update the file via the filesystem looks like. The code for inserting/retrieving is very similar and it works properly. [Code]

I have found many pages referring to having the date be part of a txt file being created, but not like the way I need. Having said that, this is what I've got.. [code] I read a page on working with txt files and learned what I could from it. It said to use the method in the beginning of my code for creating the file. It works great, but I would like to have a new file name everday, hence the date being integrated. So even if program was running, when midnight hits, a new txt file is created and new entries are written to that file. But I can't even get the date to be put in there. Everytime I try to make this work by using methods I read about in other pages, I get a syntax error, or a warning saying an end of statement is expected. I'm not sure those methods are compatible with what I've already got going.I was actually trying to store these values in a database, and I got real close I think, but I couldn't get any help to fix my problem so I'm trying to write to daily txt files instead. url....

I have a filestream, and I want to save a file from that filestream? Like there are bytes in that file stream, and from those I want a "file.exe" to automatically appear on my desktop.
I'm using a code snippet, and I think this is the important part:
Dim fstr As New FileStream("file.exe", FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Write)
fstr.Write(validArg1, validArg2, validArg3)
fstr.Close()
Do I have to use a for loop? Or is there a function like this:
IO.File.WriteAllBytes(myPath, fstr.AllBytes)

Here's the catch - for the program I'm making I would like to avoid creating a copy of the file in its totally unencrypted state (I'm using a modified, quick-and-dirty XOR cipher for that. It's secure enough for my purposes and faster than the stronger encryption). Anyhow, what I would like to do is read a block of data, de/encrypt it (in memory) and then write the changed bytes to the same location they previously would have been within the file.
I've found the problem a little outside my programming abilities, so I was wondering if anybody had a pre-made solution, links to appropriate examples, or an all out explanation.
