Reading Ports To A Buffer To Parse
Nov 15, 2009
I'm currently working on a little software for my GPS and i havent touched VB in about 10 years so I'm trying to figure this out from scratch again pretty much. Anyway, I have this code to get the information from the GPS and parse it, the only problem is that It isn't getting all the code at once and then parsing, it is getting bits and pieces and only getting the RIGHT code from time to time..
Private Sub timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles timer1.Tick

I would like to know if there is a way that I can read what a program sends to a device when connected to a comport.
I work with cell phones. I use a few programs like CDMA Workshop, QPST, QXDM, and Many more to communicate with these devices and program them as I need for each cellular carrier. We call this flashing or provisioning.
I would like to create my own program that I can have it send the commands and write to the device what I need to write.
Obviously I know exactly what I need to write to it but I have no idea what commands to use other than using the programs that already have those commands for me.
So for example when I click READ for the NAM on the program, the program automatically reads the name for me. I just want to know how do I read what commands are being sent. Is there a way to listen to the ports?

I have this htc evo phone of mine and I know there are programs that can read and write to the phone via com ports, well anyway is there a way to read and write to files on my phone via com ports, I know you can but how? Because the only thing I can do in comports in vb is ComPort1.Write() and ComPort1.Read so how do I navagate through the phone via comports and read a files contents. And write to it.

where I'm going wrong with my circular DirectSound Capture buffer here? If I just capture sound into a big non-circular buffer it works fine, but with a 1 second (44100 bytes) buffer and a 100ms timer to poll the read position it goes haywire. No error messages, just long blocks of zeros with short bursts of valid data. calculation of the number of bytes to read and/or the read position.
Here is the code. gBuffer is defined elsewhere as a big byte array. In this example I am just trying to copy the captured sound data from the small temporary byte array (tempBuffer) into the big gBuffer byte array. Obviously this must be done so that every byte is read and copied into the byte array with no gaps or duplication of values. Timer1 is set to 100mS:
Dim McaptureBuffer As CaptureBuffer
Dim MiLastReadPos As Integer
Dim MiBufferOffset As Integer

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 just want to parse simple expressions like IIF(FVAL(PFC) = TRUE, (IIF((ORGVAL(BAS, "2012/12/31") + ORGVAL(DA)) < 6500, (FVAL(BAS) + FVAL(DA)) * 12%, 780)), 0)`After parsing this I should be able to know what functions contains what parameters.

I'm stuck with .Net Framework 2.0, so no Linq or lambda expression goodies for me. Also I want to include the code in my custom library and not just reference it. Can anyone point me to some good library or code.
I just need to parse and not evaluate the expression and find what tokens are in use. After finding the tokens I need to change the expression string before parsing, like if the function ORGVAL is used then the parameter passed has has to be prefixed by an underscore. Like ORGVAL(BAS) will transform to ORGVAL(_BAS). Some functions can have tow parameters like ORGVAL(BAS, "2012/12/31") and this will transform to ORGVAL(_BAS, "2012/12/31")
NOTE: IF THERE ARE OTHER WAYS OF DOING IT PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I WOULD LOVE TO AVOID A PARSER AND LEXER.

Anyone here has an idea where I can get the ports name listed in my PC? [code]I could get COM26 and etc. if any, but that's not what I want. Instead of retrieving COM26, I want USB-SERIAL CH340 or USB-SERIAL CH340 (COM26). How could I do that?

What is the best way of communicating with Serial ports and TCP/IP communcation using vb.net?Using visual studio .net can we make it easier?? Can anyone send me sample application of communications?If I write a program communicating with my hardware using Searial port or TCP/IP, will the program be slow?? Are there any programming techniques working with communication ports?

We need to put a firewall in between our servers and a couple of clients. To do this we need to limit the number DCOM ports available so that we know what ports to open on the firewall.The question I have is do we need to limit the number of ports on all the machines inside the firewall as well as outside. This would cause an issue as we have lots of machines which would need to be modified.If DCOM has the intelligence to negotiate on port 135 which port is available on both machines which need to communicate, we will only need to modify the 2 machines on the outside of the firewall.

I am creating a USB "cookie dispenser" (long story) and I plan on programming it by, when cookie.exe starts, it disables the port, you plug the USB in and press a button and it enables the port (thus powering the device). What I need to know is, is this at all possible? And if so, can you help me get it to work? I know I should put in an effort but it's late for me (UK) and I want to post this overnight so that you guys (in the USA may

I Need to be able to read an unknown number of serial ports (I plan to limit the number to 10). I'd like to use a datareceived handeler for all of them. This is what I came up with, that seems to work with my test ports. However I'm wondering if thiscould cause any problems if more data is received than I'm currently testing with. It is possible that one or two ports will be transmitting 16 records per second each. Here is the code I'm testing with:

Im trying to do a video player but i have to play this video from the buffer, is this possible.. Let me explain you much more complicated,a got a CryptoStream and im decryting the video
While lngBytesProcessed < lngFileLength
'Read file with the input filestream.
intBytesInCurrentBlock = fsInput.Read(bytBuffer, 0, 4096)
'Write output file with the cryptostream.
[code]....
This code writes my decryted or crypted video to a new file. However, i need to play the video file from the buffer(without copying to a new file), in other way it would be meaningless if i create a decryted file. in other words it would unsecure for me cuz if anyone can locate my temp directorey they can copy my decrypted video files.

I am using VB.net sockets to send a music file from one instance to another. It currently saves the file, but I do not want to be caught up in file-sharing, so I want to "save" it to a buffer, and when it gets to a particular percentage transferred, I want another thread to play the music file, deleting it from the buffer as it plays. I have the code to send it over the network, but I need to know how to keep it in a buffer and not save it as a file.
