Why should I have to buy one just to protect my IP? If I compile a C++ program it is immediately pretty well protected.

But not bulletproof. While it is protected better, it still isn't totally foolproof. All code is capable of being reversed.

Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

Sure, if you have the sort of customers who would be inclined to look.

The obvious alternative is to write C++ DLLs that hide your proprietary stuff and call them from C#.

What about C++/CLI? Isn't that managed and unmanaged code in the same assembly?

(Just curious... Big Grin | :-D

)

C++/CLI is managed code, so it also can be decompiled. It can be a combo of both, but the unmanaged part is the only way to write stuff that can't be decompiled.

The error is correct. Try to create a file with that name in the file system and you'll find it's a limitation of windows. In fact, that's a good way to get a list of characters you need to remove or not allow in your filenames.

Well, actually '&' is a legal character in a Windows filename.
Illegal characters are: '/', '\', ':', '*', '?', '"', '<', '>' and '|'.

hi,

but how can I handle those extra chracters like

if & replace with &
if " replace with "

help me pls

hi,
foreach (char c in FileName)
{
switch (c)
{
case '&':
FileName = FileName.Replace("&", "&");
//"<","&"
break;
case '>':
FileName = FileName.Replace(">", ">");
break;
case '<':
FileName = FileName.Replace("<", "<");

break;
case '"':
FileName = FileName.Replace("\"", """);
break;
case ' ':
FileName = FileName.Replace(" ", " ");
break;
case '@':
FileName = FileName.Replace("@", "@at");
break;

see the code i am replacing the exttra charcters like this but still i am gettign error.

This code is way too messy, the string.Replace method will do this much nicer.

What's the error you're getting, and what's the filename ?

This is ridiculous. All you need is the replace statement ( although this particular one does nothing, it replaces & with &.

That is fine but my question is why do you want to store a file name with special character as most of OS doesn't allow that !!!

OK - this code is way too messy and shouldn't be used. More importantly, you are replacing illegal characters with illegal characters. For instance, you are replacing an & with an & - consider replacing it with a space or an empty string or even an underscore.

hi,
since i am pasting the xml code u are not able to see it i am replacing
[""""& with [&""""]'
e.g: & with """"&"""

foreach (char c in FileName)
{
switch (c)
{
case '&':
FileName = FileName.Replace("&", "&");
break;
case '>':
FileName = FileName.Replace(">", ">");
break;
case '<':
FileName = FileName.Replace("<", "<");
break;
case '"':
FileName = FileName.Replace("\"", """);
break;
case ' ':
FileName = FileName.Replace(" ", " ");
break;
case '@':
FileName = FileName.Replace("@", "@at");
break;
}
}

I have a feeling that this needs some thinking as special character with special character could lead to some unknown exceptions !!!

I have another question why you want to use replace then ?

Let me get back to you !!
