Compress The File Without Loosing File Extension Inside Compressed File

Jan 4, 2011

I have File Like "Sample.bak" and when I compress it to be "Sample.zip" I lose the file extension inside the zip file I meann when I open the compressed file I find "Sample" without any extension.

I use this code :

Dim name As String = Path.GetFileName(filePath).Replace(".Bak", "")
Dim source() As Byte = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(filePath)
Dim compressed() As Byte = ConvertToByteArray(source)
System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes(destination & name & ".Bak" & ".zip", compressed)

Or using this code :

Public Sub cmdCompressFile(ByVal FileName As String)

'Stream object that reads file contents
Dim streamObj As Stream = New StreamReader(FileName).BaseStream

[CODE]...

I need to compress the file without loosing file extension inside compressed file.

Asp.net - Export To Excel File As .zip To Reduce File Size - Compress Xmldata Before Sending It To The Client?

Jul 8, 2010

I like to compress the xmldata before the data is provided to the client as an excel file. I am trying to compress and deliver it as a .zip file. its not working Here's my code below. I tried compressing it, converting it to bytes etc etc. The issue with below code is, the XSL transformation is not happening properly and the output excel file is raw xml with some .net exception at the end. (that's what I see on the .xls file that's downloaded at the end) Before I started working on compression my below code was working fine that gives properly formatted excel file from the xml input. the excel file is so nice you can't even tell it was from XML.

VS 2010 How To Decompress A Zlib-compressed File

Mar 24, 2012

I would like to decompress/compress text files in zlib format.

Here's what I tried:

- Downloaded zlibwipa.dll from [URL] and tried to add a reference to it but got an error saying it is an invalid assembly.

- Downloaded DotZLib from [URL] but can't get it to work, error message: Unable to load DLL 'zlib.DLL': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)

- Looked at this [URL] but couldn't do much with it

This files are textfiles created from flash with ActionScript 3.0, but compressed, using the ByteArray class's compress() method. I know Flash uses zlib algorithm for this, and I would like to open and use this file from vb.net.

I am using something like :

FileOpen(1, OpenMapDialog.FileName, OpenMode.Binary, OpenAccess.ReadWrite)
Dim a() As Byte = {}
FileGet(1, a)

[Code]....

Converting An Image To An .ICO File Without Loosing Color Depth?

Sep 2, 2011

In a form I have an ImageList named MainLogoImageList containing a 100x100 pixel 32-bit colordepth image. That is my app logo.

I am too lazy to set up an icon editor and edit an icon of that logo, or convert the image to an .ICO file. (Ergh, well, I am not allowed to install custom utilities.)

To set my forms' icon, I use

Icon = IconFromImage(MainLogoImageList.Images(0))

in the OnLoad event handler to set the window icon.

In my about box, i have a PictureBox with no image. In its OnLoad event, I use

LogoPictureBox.Image = MyMainForm.MainLogoImageList.Images(0)
Icon = IconFromImage(MyMainForm.MainLogoImageList.Images(0))

to set the About box's icon and content.

So far, so good, the icon looks pretty good for a being created from a 100x100 pixel bitmap.

Is there an easy "no utility required" :-) way to get the icon that is returned my IconFromImage saved into an .ICO file so that it will keep the color depth when loaded as the app icon? I want to use exactly the icon that IconFromImage creates.

Saving it using

Dim S As New FileStream("MyAppIcon.ico", FileMode.Append, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.Write)
Icon.Save(S)
S.Close()

in the main form's OnLoad event handler and loading that .ICO file as the app icon in VS's project properties dialog yields and icon that is obviously converted to 16 colors, and looks awful.

Compress / Encrypt Parts Of A File?

Aug 5, 2009

How can i encrypt or decrypt only a part of a file? I try, and i keep getting an error message that says that the stream might be corrupt. By the way, it is ok to convert the text to a byte array using the system.text.encoding.ascii.getbytes() right? The reason i want to encrypt/compress only a part of a file is because i don't want to encrypt or compress the file header. That way the program can gather info about whether the file is compressed or encrypted.

Compress A File Open On Another Application?

Jul 31, 2011

I have a program I made in vb.net express 2008 that used java.utils.zip to compress my work files to a Zip archive that I ran occassionaly to have a backup. I worked fine, but with net framework 4 and vb.net 2010 it doesn't work. So I modified it to use sharpziplib and it works fine if all files on the filter list in the folder are closed, but if I have a file open in OpenOffice writer, my program can't access it and won't create the zip file. The file that usually stays open all the time is my TODO list, that is updated several times a day , so usually gets printed, and updated( adding or deleting entries), without closing it.
