Alright, I'll admit, after days of looking at this code I'm a bit at my wits end. At a high level it's a project that uses a client server architecture to deliver a stream object via wcf for large data transfers. The blog and project I've utilized can be found here:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/webapps/archive/2012/09/06/custom-wcf-streaming.aspx[^]
My issue is this, the project works incredibly well with numeric values. But, if I add a few basic string values in, it'll process say 30 rows of data and then die, with the following message:
"The input stream is not a valid binary format. The starting contents (in bytes) are: 08-02-00-00-00-0A-00-00-00-0A-00-00-00-0A-00-00-00 ...
A summarized version of the code looks like this:
Server:
model.ID = i;
model.ParameterOne = i;
model.ParameterTwo = i;
model.ParameterThree = i;
model.AMP = stringCache[i - 1];
formatter.Serialize(memStream, model);
Client:
OrderModel m;
while (s.CanRead)
{
m = formatter.Deserialize(s) as OrderModel;
count++;
Console.Write(string.Format("order ID is {0}\r\n", m.ID));
}
I've run through multiple scenarios. I thought the wcf client was either timing out or being overloaded, but I can run it without wcf all in the same class and run into the same exact issue. I can also manually read and write to a memory stream not utilizing the server class and it works perfectly fine, so that proves it can't be encoding or issues with that data in general.
You can download the same project here (just three classes):
https://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?cid=8df0b4ca8325874a&page=self&resid=8DF0B4CA8325874A%21175&parid=8DF0B4CA8325874A%21110&authkey=%21&Bpub=SDX.SkyDrive&Bsrc=Share[^]
If you go to class DBRowStream and comment line 179, it works beautifully. If you uncomment it, it fails after 30 rows. My best guess is that the overriden read method of the class is killing the stream prematurely, but if that were the case, why would a few extra string values mean the difference between it working and not.
I apologize for the novel, and any suggestions or help would be so greatly appreciated!
Thanks so much,
Ryan

It's multithreaded; could it be that the memorystream is corrupted before the thread finishes?

You know I was wondering the same thing. Although it's odd that it makes it through exactly 30 rows every single time before it errors out. I was also thinking that because the author switches the memory stream from one of two other memory streams, that maybe the main memory stream is being overridden before a read is complete....
|

formatter.Deserialize(s) assumes that the entire object has been successfully written to the stream? For grins and giggle, try writing the entire stream to memory after 30 rows; I bet a dime to a dollar, all of your strings have not been completely written. At least that is what I would look into, don't know the answer myself as I completely avoid WCF like the plague.

Hi, I am trying to access a MS Access database using Windows form. I added my connection string in App.congig file.
="1.0"="utf-8"
<configuration>
<connectionStrings>
<clear/>
<add name="Constr" providerName="System.Data.OleDb"
connectionString="Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:\\Users\\XXXX\\Documents\\YYYYY.accdb; Persist Security Info=False;"/>
</connectionStrings>
</configuration>
Code I added in my code to read this is
string connectionstring = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["Constr"].ConnectionString;
but I am getting following error on this line.
System.NullReferenceException was unhandled
Message=Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Source=LoadTrackingTool.
I am not getting why I am getting this error. Can anyone please help me out in this. I am new in this functionality.
Thnx,
Aduu

You'll have to step through the code and find what line of code causes the error. At a quick glance I don't think it is failing on getting the connection string.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

have you tried
string connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["Constr"].ToString();

hello
is what is possible when one selects one word in a textbox, every similar word will be displayed in a MessageBox.Show.
The principle is to retrieve those similar words and the user can see.
thank you
|
|
|
|
|
Of course it's possible! The problem is how do YOU define "similar". Once you have that, YOU have to write the code to get the currently selected text in the textbox, then search the textbox contents for the "similar" works.
|
|
|
|
|
can you help me in this code ?
|
|
|
|
|
Nope. I've got my own pile of code to write and I'm not getting paid to write yours too.
You first need to define exactly what you mean by "similar" and then probably do some research on "Regular Expressions".

We got an article[^] on the subject. Unless you'd really need it as XML, I'd also recommend using the BinaryFormatter.

Hi all, can someone please clear things up for me regarding inheriting an abstract class. According to msdn.com[^] the following are some of the features of an abstract class:
It is not possible to modify an abstract class with the sealed modifier, which means that the class cannot be inherited.
A non-abstract class derived from an abstract class must include actual implementations of all inherited abstract methods and accessors.
The first sentence says that the class cannot be inherited but the second sentence says you can have a non-abstract class which is derived from an abstract class. If I'm not mistaken, a derived class is a class that inherits from another class. Thanks in advance for your response.

MSDN isn't always right and sometimes, like here, they don't update the documentation. If you follow the 'other versions' links, at the top of that page, to VS 2012, you'll see that the stuff about 'abstract sealed' has been changed.
It's possible that the person who wrote the docs was confusing C# and intermediate language (IL) classes. When a C# static class is compiled to IL, the class declaration is marked as abstract and sealed. So a C# static class is equivalent to an IL abstract sealed class.
In C# it's not actually possible to declare a class as 'abstract sealed'. Try it and you'll find that it won't compile.

Thank you all for responding. I guess the confusion was over the fact that the author of the article was not being very clear.

I agree that this sentence could be clearer. What they're trying to say is:
- You cannot add the
sealed modifier to an abstract class; - The
sealed modifier means that a class cannot be inherited;
It looks like they cleared this up in the VS2010 version[^], where the sentence has been changed to:
It is not possible to modify an abstract class with the sealed (C# Reference) modifier because the two modifers have opposite meanings. The sealed modifier prevents a class from being inherited and the abstract modifier requires a class to be inherited.

In a C# 2008 application, I used linq to sql to connect to a sql server 2008 database. Now I want to obtain the connection of the database from the
app.config file instead of hardcoding the value into the application. I want to be able to change the connection string to the database since I will be moving this application from unit testing database to user acceptance database to the the prodction database.
Right now I am getting the error message, ""Object reference not set to an instance of an object." I know this error message is coming from the line of code that I listed below since it is the only line of code I changed.
The following is a snippet of the code from the *.designer.cs file (this is part of the dbml file).
using System.Configuration;
public esampleDataContext() :
base(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["sample.Properties.Settings.DEVConnectionString"].ConnectionString,mappingSource)
**Note: base(global::sample.Properties.Settings.Default.DEVConnectionString, mappingSource) is the line of code that I replaced that was generated by the
.net framework
I want to mention the following:
1. The *.dbml file is associated with a particular project file.
2. The connection string settings for this *.dbml file are the following:
a. DEVConnectionString (settings)
b. Connection String = Data Source=dev1;Initial Catalog=DEV_test;Integrated Security=True
c. application settings=True
d. settings property name is DEVConnectionString.
3. The project file that has the *.dbml file. has a reference set to the system.configuration.
**Note: This code in similar applications that I wrote, but I do not why it does not work here.
Thus can you tell me, show me in code, and/or point me to a reference that I can use so I can obtain the value in the app.config file for the database connection string I want to use. I do not want to use a hard-coded connection string to the database.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the connectionstring in the app.config file? Isn't the app.config file an XML file that can be edited?
If both answers are yes, then your connectionstring isn't hardcoded, but loaded from the settings-file.
