I am attempting to read from a url into a System.IO.Stream object. I tried to use
Dim stream as Stream = New FileStream(msgURL, FileMode.Open)
but I get an error that URI formats are not supported with FileStream objects. Is there some method I can use that inherits from System.IO.Stream that is able to read from a URL?
in an winForm app in VS2010 win 7 compiling to x86, I try to do what Alvas.Audio seems to work. See (c# ex: [URL] for reference.
Dim data() As Byte = wr.ReadData(second * i, second)
The result give me data.length()=0. I do not have any exception, I can read format from it and whatever reader I use I got this problem.EDIT : After some tests, it seems like the uncompressed file I create in the first step (in PCM format, with .wav extension) can not be recognized by the Alvas.audio library for the second step. I must miss something around Audio file markups or something alike.
Here is the code that might be the source (basically this is step 1):
Dim functOut As String = String.Empty
Dim wr As Alvas.Audio.IAudioReader = Nothing
Dim fs As IO.FileStream = Nothing

How can I write the resulted stream to be sure I can read it again later?

I am trying to read the following xml stream but am really struggling.
<channelSnapshot xmlns="urn:betfair:games:api:v1">
<channel gameType="BLACKJACK" id="1444077" name="Exchange BlackJack">
<status>RUNNING</status>
[code]....
If the element is between a start tag and end tag such as
<status>RUNNING</status>
Then I can access the value ok. I have been using Select Case xmlnodetype but using this when the nodetype is a whitespace I can't get to the element beyond the whitespace.So that in the following line
<property name="Card 1" value="NOT AVAILABLE"/>
I cant get to anything beyond the word property.
I am trying to read a xml file (from a stream) like the one below. I need to read the xml element "recipientPhone" first,then I could read element "contents" so that I could save base64 data as file with the name coming from recipientPhone.I am using while xmlReader.read() to read the xml, is there a way that I could read element "recipientPhone" before "contents"?
xml sample:
<fax>
<clientInfo>Attachments: 2</clientInfo>
<contents><contentType>0</contentType>
<data>data1</data>

View 6 RepliesI'm trying to read in some text from a tcp stream. I know that the text has a unicode control character as the first character (0x0b) because the sending mechanism inserts it in front of all outgoing messages. I know it is an unreadable/unprintable character but would I would like to do is know how to read this character in and know that it is a 0x0b.

I am trying to use the vb.net method FileGet to populate a type library from a text file. This text file was created by a legacy application using vb6. In the vb6 code, the Put method was used to create this file by dumping the type library into the file. I'm using the same type library to parse back into using the FileGet method. The only difference is that the type library is now an interop dll. When I use the FileGet, it works for most of the files that I'm trying to read.
However, there are a few that give me the error: "Unable to read beyond the end of the stream." Does anyone know what would cause this error and how I can fix it?I've already tried to add a space and a line break at the end of the file.This did not work. I've searched for the solution but have not found anything that has worked.[code]...

Just starting up on VB 2008 Express (.NET). Trying to write to and read from a file. It runs without errors, but the messagebox only shows the 'OK' button, not the contents of the file as I want. I thought that maybe I have to rewind the file before reading, but AFAICS there is no 'StreamRead.Rewind' or Reset or something.

I need to read strings by stream! Is this possible? I've been searching for quite a while now, without results.So what i have is an application which gets song lyrics. The lyrics come in a string and i need to separate the string into multiple lines. Just to make that clear, lets say that im getting this text and put it into a string:
Bla bla bla..
Na nana na
And in string format = "Bla bla bla... Na nana na" but what i need to do is separate them into its original, line by line.I created an for each loop which looked for upper chars and when found, create a new line. But that didn't work out so well since the lyrics are written in proper english, using the upper "I" everywhere. So i created a new loop which ignored "I":es if they were followed by a space/blank " ". That didn't work either, it skipped some sentences.

I've been reading the MSDN Library and I need to use the StreamReader.Peek Method to check a text file while a I parse it.
When I try to use the Peek Method, I get an error saying , "Peek is not a member of System.IO.Stream."
I don't understand why it is happening because I am following the examples on MSDN, and I even checked other sources and it seems like I am doing everything correct. I am hoping it is just something small that I have missed.
I am also importing System, System.IO, and System.Text.
Is it possible to capture all/any audio played by a PC into a system.io.stream, so that it can then be run through speech recognition (System.Speech.Recognition.SpeechRecognitionEngine)?Essentially I'm looking to pefrom speech recognition on any audio on the client PC, google seems to suggest that capturing a stream like this can be done using Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound, however I cannot honestly determine how.

View 4 RepliesFrom few days I am doing efforts to read web pages using webbrowser control in my desktop application. But it is very slower than my expectations(because I want to read lots of pages in minutes and browser control reads almost one page in 5 to 10 seconds), what I need is to read two or three tags written in web page.
So finally I decided to use something, which can give me only source code of page. I think StreamReader will help me to read it. I am not sure if it is flaxible with my purpose, or something else is there which can give me only html source code of web page.
I have written this code to read html code, but it gives error.

So i'm still goofing around with this chat app thing. Current when a user sends a message it sends to all clients connected. The server stores all clients and their IPs in a hash table, so what i want to do is each time a client joins, the server will broadcast the updated hashtable to each client. I know i can make a mess and get the server to broadcast each row of the hash table as a string but i think this way would be cleaner, either that or send the client object instead of the whole hash table.

How can I send and recieve serialized objects over a TCP connection with size and data type values in the header (within array(0) and array(1) values)?
I know how to serialize and send the object using
BinaryFormatter.Serialize
But on the receiving end I dont know the size of the obejct sent therefore I dont know when to stop reading the data stream. I also dont know how to take the recieved data and put it into an array of bytes().
Is there a way to test if a streamreader or streamwrite is open? My application is something like this[code]...
