Re: directory path for test method

You may be able to use the Assembly class to get the information you require.

Here is the example from the documentation:

Assembly SampleAssembly;
// Instantiate a target object.
Int32 Integer1 = new Int32();
Type Type1;
// Set the Type instance to the target class type.
Type1 = Integer1.GetType();
// Instantiate an Assembly class to the assembly housing the Integer type.
SampleAssembly = Assembly.GetAssembly(Integer1.GetType());
// Gets the location of the assembly using file: protocol.
Console.WriteLine("CodeBase=" + SampleAssembly.CodeBase);

Look up the documentation for Assembly, particularly ExecutingAssembly and CallingAssembly to decide the best way to proceed for your circumstances.

Thanks Henry,
It is returning the path as "file:\C:\....\\....\TestResults\user_UKNML2009-10-16 16_39_37\Out".
I need debug or application executable path. (If i do some modification in code to reach up to the required path from the assembly path then it will not work for actual application output.)

Search string and if found copy row to new worksheet.

I need help with how to copy a row into a new worksheet using C#. Presently I can search for the string but I can't figure out how to grab the row and copy it to a new worksheet. Can anyone help? My code is below.

for (rCnt = 1; rCnt <= range.Rows.Count; rCnt++)
{
for (cCnt = 1; cCnt <= range.Columns.Count; cCnt++)
{

System.Convert.ToString(xlWorkBook);

str = (range.Cells[rCnt, cCnt] as Excel.Range).Value2as string;

if (str == "Yellow")
String.Copy(str); //After if finds the yellow string I want it to copy it to a new worksheet this will take place for all yellow strings.

MessageBox.Show(str);

}
}

Starting AND Monitoring status of a Process on a Remote workstation

Hi there,

I want to start a process on a remote machine and as soon as the process is complete i want to start a local process.

Keep in mind that:
- I only have the UNC of the remote pc
- The process that must be run is stored on the remote pc and must be run on that pc.
- I do not want to map network drives (although it's highly unlikely that i should)

This is how I would do it if the first process was run on my local machine.

myProcess.Start();
myProcess.WaitForExit()
//next process

Thank you,

You are going to need some communications vehicle between the two systems so the initiator sends a message to the remote telling it to start the process, and when it terminates to return a completion message. You could do this with sockets, or maybe WCF, although sockets may be easier to learn. Take a look at some of the links here[^] for more information, or search Google for 'WCF' if you decide on that route.

I believe you can do this using WMI. Read this[^] article or this[^] post.

I don't think there is a single repository for something like that. Do you mean over a particular protocol?

FileSystemWatcher class might be of your interest. You can find a lot of samples related to this class' usage on web.

Windows does not track such information. There is no way to tell.

Also, since there are so many different ways of sending files and over so many protocols, there's no single way to find out even if that stuff was tracked.

Check your installation. If you have installed Net60 correctly, you should be able to open this file.

Re: how to send and recieve data from different ip using socket server

Jimmanuel16-Oct-09 4:35

If a client (Client-A) wants data from a server that the server received from a different client (Client-B) then Client-A needs to connect to the server and request it. To connect to a socket on "localhost" use IPAddress.Loopback as the destination address.

Finding a string variable in memory??

diePopster15-Oct-09 22:44

15-Oct-09 22:44

Hi there,
If i assign a value to a string, is it possible to go and see where it is stored in the memory and what the value is?

e.g.

string _testString = "Value I want to read from memory";

Any way to do this?

Yes, but it is not recommended. If you have a requirement to do this you should really be using C++.

This is a quickie example of manipulating a string by getting it's pointer (char*)

C#

/* Will need to check 'Allow unsafe code' in
Project|Properties|Build */

string text = "Test";
unsafe
{
    fixed (char* textPointer = text)
    {
        char* pointer = textPointer;
        *pointer = Char.ToLower(*pointer);
        *++pointer = Char.ToUpper(*pointer);
        *++pointer = Char.ToUpper(*pointer);
        *++pointer = Char.ToUpper(*pointer);
    }
}
// text will now be "tEST"

On top of everything else that's been said, using managed code, C#, VB.NET, or any other language that targets the .NET Framework, an item can be moved in memory by the Garbage Collector at any time. So, even though you got the pointer to item, you really cannot use the pointer because the item might not be there anymore. The pointer you have will NOT get updated to reflect the new location in memory.

However, there is a way aroudn that. It's called "pinning". The GC can be told to pin an object in memory so it can't be moved. Read up on it here[^]. Be careful. When you pin an object, you are also responsible for removing the pin when you're done with it.
