Io - Proper Way To Commit A Subset Of A Byte Buffer To File?
Dec 7, 2011
I am concerned that this code is copying bytes into a temporary buffer before writing directly to file.
I feel like there should be some method of copying bytes directly from the tail end of the main buffer directly to file.'this code copies all bytes starting at integer index from the main buffer into a new file: ga.exe
'declare temporary buffer
Dim EXEBytes(bytes.Count - index) As Byte
'copy subset of bytes over, starting at index
System.Buffer.BlockCopy(bytes, index, EXEBytes, 0, bytes.Count - index)
'write bytes from temporary array into file
File.WriteAllBytes(Server.MapPath("/BIN/ga.exe"), EXEBytes)

basically I'm sending and receiving both images, strings and files over a client/server connection. I can easily use a protocol for string commands but I cannot distinguish between the incoming data [if data is image or whatever and then follow onward instructions].So how do I make a packet using Dim buffer as byte()?

The relevant code below is not achieving what I hoped it would. I intend for
1. SerialPortBufferTemp to be used as the container for each Serial Port Read.
2. _buffer should contain the resultant array from two separate Reads, the second appended directly after the first.
(E.g. 60 bytes read on the 2nd Read will be appended to the 168 bytes received on the first Read (228 total resultant byte length))
The problem with my code below is that _buffer has increase in size from 300 bytes to 600 bytes, skipped bytes 168 to 300 (leaving them all zeros) and added the remaining 60 bytes from the second read beginning at _buffer[300].
private List<byte> _buffer = new List<byte>();
byte[] SerialPortBufferTemp = new byte[300];
serialPort1.Read(SerialPortBufferTemp, 0, iBytesRead);
if (iValidRecordCtr == 0) {
_buffer.Clear();

I can't seem to find how to recast a char to Ascii, the VB6 way was to ASC(thechar/thestring).What is the new method? or how to perform the recast while converting to a byte so it will fit and not buffer overrun.

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.

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'm reading a file into a buffer using the Space function. Then I'm using blowfish dll's to encrypt it, and want to write the encrypted data to a txt file. (I realize you can use .NET cryptography classes, but I need to use these old blowfish dll's for this project.) Anyway, when when I encrypt the data in the buffer, I can see all encrypted data, but when I write it out to a file, I get a few lines of encrypted data and the rest of plain text.

I have a db, and one of the columns in my db is an attachment column. It stores the link to a pdf document. I want the user to be able to browse through folders and select the proper pdf file. And when the user finally hits the submit button on the form my algorithm should put the necessary link into my db. I'm just not sure how to do this with regard to VB searching and finding the file, and then using my SQL statement to insert the attachment into my db.
Here is my code so far.

I'm creating a Rijndael file encryption application. I will using a unique IV for each file encryption.
My question: Where is the proper place to embed the IV info?
My initial thought is to append it at the end of the file's content. Is that a good choice?

I have an arraylist that holds a subset of names found in my database. I need to write a query to get a count of the people in the arraylist for certain sections i.e. There is a field "City" in my database from the people in the arraylist of names I want to know how many of them live in Chicago, how many live in New York etc.
how I might set up an sql statement to handle this. I think somehow I have to pass the subset of names to sql somehow.
Here is a sample how I am writing my sql in my code
Public Shared Function GetCAData(ByVal employeeName As String) As DataTable
Dim strQuery As String = "SELECT EMPLID, EMPLNME, DISP_TYPE, BEGIN_DTE FROM Corr WHERE (EMPLNME = @name)"
[Code]....
I need a way to create a function using your sql statement to return a datatable object of names and the parameters would be city, and the List of names.
The above example isnt the sql I am looking for its just a skeleton of what the function would look like that I want to create.
So then you would use the function by iterating through all the cities passing in the same set of names each time in the fron end.

I am working on a function that returns an array of variable-length strings that have a certain starting and ending delimiter. The input to the function is a string. I am able to do this by using if-then statements with InStr(). I was wondering someone knew of a more elegant way. I tried using the split command but I am splitting on one delimiter so I don't really get the result. I could then parse from the results but I am back to the same boat with using InStr().

I have a simple VB.Net Form that acts as an interface to a control library with a public API.
One of the API calls takes an Array of UIntegers ByRef:
Public Function Get_Values(source_id As Byte, first_value_address As Byte, number_of_values As Byte, ByRef valuesOut As UInteger()) As Integer
After the call, valuesOut will hold a list of values number_of_values long from source_id starting at first_value_address.
There is a hardware driven limitation that the max number of values returned is 15 regardless of requested length. I need to get 28 values into an array from my VB.Net code.
Is it possible to send only part of an array variable to the function similar to this C code?
uint[28] values;
Get_Values(0, 0, 15, values);//get first part
Get_Values(0, 15, 13, &values[15]); //get second part of data
