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 have a problem with the cryptostream, if i write the stream to a memorystream the memory that the stream used is still alocated and i have no way of unalocating it.what am i missingdoing wrong? im using-using on the streams,readers and crypto stuffs so the framework should shut them all down right? i tryed calling .close and .dispose but nothing ,in fact i moved it all over I have provided the sub that im using for the encrytion im in .net 4.5 so there is a lil async stuff but i know thats not the problem coz i moved this code out of my main app(.net 4) for testing to see if i could fix the problem.[code...]

I am developing a VB.NET 2008 application, consisting of a main EXE application and several resource DLLs.I am trouble with two functions for the DLL:
1) one function to get a list of all files in the resources of the DLL.
2) one function to return 'by name' a resource file as a System.IO.Stream type.
NOTE: The files will not be "Embedded Resource" (this doubles the size of the DLL), so I think cannot use 'GetManifestResourceStream'.
I currently use:
Return New System.IO.MemoryStream(My.Resources.MyFileName)
but I want it to be called by name.I am adding the resources using the VS 2008 "Resources" tab, from the My Project screen, I'm not manually editing Resources.resxAs I said before, it works with:
Return New System.IO.MemoryStream(My.Resources.MyFileName)
but I need to get the resources by name, which also works by using
GetMAnifestResourceStream
but this requires to set the resources Build Action to "Embedded Resource", which doubles the size of my DLL file.I currently use "None" as Build Action, but I can use any Build Action that does not increase the file size more than the actual resources size.
When I use Dotfuscator Enhanced Community Edition to dotfuscate one of my programs, it breaks the part of my program that takes an ebmbedded GZIP file and decompresses it to a normal stream which is then written to a file. Here is the code that dies:
VB
Dim Stream As New GZipStream(Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream(MyNameSpace & "." & EmbeddedResource), CompressionMode.Decompress)
I did some investigating by putting in messagebox outputs of the variables and it seems the reason it dies is because MyNameSpace is a blank string. This global variable is defined early on in the program as such:
VB
Public MyNameSpace As String = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().EntryPoint.DeclaringType.Namespace()
So what I need is either another way of accessing the root namespace, another way of getting to an ebmbedded resource or a way to make Dotfuscator not destroy that namespace. I did think about using My.Resources.... but the problem with that is that I can't pass the string "EmbeddedResource" to the subroutine - I'd have to do the files all in individual lines I think.Also, a side question: The only enhancement I can ever find with the Enhanced edition of Dotfuscator is "Deep Visual Studio Integration" but I cannot see any evidence of this. I mean there's a button in the Tools menu to start Dotfuscator but that's not what I'd call "deep integration". I assumed it meant you could tell it to automatically dotfuscate when compiling but I can't find any documentation on how to do this.

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?

View 2 RepliesI 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 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.

View 9 RepliesI 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 _

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 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)
