Errrm. You did see the honking great bit of text at the top that said this was the C# forum didn't you? I mean - I can see that it would be easy to miss, what with it being twice as big as the rest of the text and green. I mean, c'mon; couldn't they have made it any more apparent that this section was about C# code and nothing whatsoever to do with asking questions about commercial applications?
Would you like to go away now, or shall I mock you some more?

Hello,
I have 3 types of resources embeded in my executable :
html, jpg and pdf. I also have a listbox, and I want whenever a user sleects a different item, to display it in a web browser.
I have no problems doing that to HTML files, but with the other one, it's a different thing and I hope someone can help me do this.
First, I want to say that I don't want to save the resources locally and after that load them in the browser, because I don't want users to see them.
I am using this to view the html :
<br />
Assembly assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();<br />
webBrowser1.DocumentStream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream("ebook.index.html");
If I try to do the same thing to the pdf or jpg, it simply shows me the binary data of the files, it does not display them in the browser.
Is it possible to make the visible in the browser, directly from the assembly ? What are my options ?
Thank you

Hi,
I haven't done this myself, but the way I understand it you must also set the WebBrowser.DocumentType (try "application/pdf"); that should allow you to view a PDF document (or any image) as a web page.
You probably also want images inside web pages, so have a look at embedded images[^].

Hello,
Thank you for the quick reply but unfortunatly the DocumentType is read only 
Any other ideeas ?
Thanx
|

Yes, you are right.
And the data scheme[^] is usable only for small amounts of data, hence small images only, no PDF documents.
I guess the next logical approach is to come up with a simple HTTP server that can provide HTML and PDF; then embed that in the app, andmake the WebBrowser navigate to it.
This seems to be a candidate: Sample HTTP Server Skeleton in C#[^]

Hi,
I now have a simple embedded HTTP server working based on the article I provided a link to.
It gets a PDF document somewhere (from a file!), then serves that to its client, which can be either a regular browser (e.g. FireFox) or a WebBrowser. It still needs a lot of clean-up though, but I wanted to confirm you can make it work.

Hi
I want my application to update itself. As far as I know we can't do this in C# ( or any other language -without workarounds- ) because a file can't change itself while running.
I tried using another method which first downloads the newer executable, creates a batch file which waits for a while for the application to terminate then deletes the main app and replaces it with the newer one, then launches it.
But there is something wrong here I think. The batch file doesn't do everything correctly. Sometimes it doesn't delete itself or the update file, or sometimes newer does anything.
Class:
class updater
{
public string UpdaterURL = null;
public string LocalUpdaterLocation = null;
public int ErrorCounter = 0;
public void Download()
{
if (ErrorCounter == 0)
{
WebClient wc = null;
try
{
wc = new WebClient();
wc.DownloadFile(UpdaterURL, LocalUpdaterLocation);
}
catch { ErrorCounter++; }
finally { if (wc != null) wc.Dispose(); }
}
}
public void CreateBatchFile()
{
if (ErrorCounter == 0)
{
string AppPath = Application.ExecutablePath.Replace(Application.StartupPath, "").Replace(@"\", "");
StreamWriter sw = null;
try
{
sw = new StreamWriter("update.bat");
sw.WriteLine("@echo off");
sw.WriteLine("ping 127.0.0.1 -n 2 -w 1000 > nul");
sw.WriteLine("ping 127.0.0.1 -n 2 -w 1000 > nul");
sw.WriteLine("ping 127.0.0.1 -n 2 -w 1000 > nul");
sw.WriteLine("ping 127.0.0.1 -n 2 -w 1000 > nul");
sw.WriteLine("ping 127.0.0.1 -n 2 -w 1000 > nul");
sw.WriteLine("ping 127.0.0.1 -n 2 -w 1000 > nul");
sw.WriteLine("ping 127.0.0.1 -n 2 -w 1000 > nul");
sw.WriteLine("ping 127.0.0.1 -n 2 -w 1000 > nul");
sw.WriteLine("ping 127.0.0.1 -n 2 -w 1000 > nul");
sw.WriteLine("ping 127.0.0.1 -n 2 -w 1000 > nul");
sw.WriteLine("deleteexe:");
sw.WriteLine(@"del """ + AppPath + @"""/Q/S>nul");
sw.WriteLine(@"if exists """ + AppPath + @""" goto deleteexe");
sw.WriteLine("rename " + LocalUpdaterLocation + " " + AppPath);
sw.WriteLine(AppPath);
}
catch { ErrorCounter++; }
finally { if (sw != null) { sw.Close(); sw.Dispose(); } }
}
}
public void StartUpdating()
{
if (ErrorCounter == 0)
{
Process prc = new Process();
prc.StartInfo.FileName = "update.bat";
prc.StartInfo.ErrorDialog = false;
prc.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
prc.Start();
Environment.Exit(0);
}
}
}
How I call it:
updater upd = new updater();
upd.UpdaterURL = "http://.../update.exe";
upd.LocalUpdaterLocation = "update.exe";
upd.ErrorCounter = 0;
upd.Download();
upd.CreateBatchFile();
upd.StartUpdating();
Thanks in advance,
Can

Thank you for your answer.
I have read that article you have linked. It is a sophisticated solution. But there is only one problem, There should be an AppStart.exe to start the updated solution.
I can only have one executable, that's why I was trying to work with batch files.

Can you not set the ScrollBars property to either Horizontal, Vertical or Both.

The only method I can think of would only give an approximation, so for what it is worth.
The VisualTextRenderer class has a GetTextMetrics method. The structure returned contains details such as FontHeight, AverageCharWidth, MaxCharWidth etc. for the Font and Graphics it is given.
You could divide the height of the TextBox by the FontHeight to give the number of lines. Then use either Average or Max Width to calculate how many characters fit on a line.
I have no idea how accurate this would be though.

hi,can someone help me with this....
i want to know how to get the file name currently being modified/openned by certain process, i know about FileSystemWatcher tool but i want to get it in another way(i mean what process x is openning or modifying at a specific moment).
is there any API or c# code to it???
any help is appreciated

Unless the process exposes some kind of ommunication mechanism, there's no way to tell.
lost_in_code wrote: i know about FileSystemWatcher tool
The FSW won't work for you anyway since it can't tell that a file was opened at all. All it can see is the changes in the files timestamp attributes, which don't change if you open a file for read access.
lost_in_code wrote: i want to get it in another way(i mean what process x is openning or modifying at a specific moment).
The only way I can think of would be to enumerate all the process handles, and all of the file handles in the system and start trying to match them up with each other. But, there is no way to tell an .EXE file from a .DLL file from a .TXT file from a .DOC file, or any other file type. On top of that, most apps out there don't hold files open when they load them, so there's no file handle to try and match up anyway.
The bottom line is what you want to do is extremely difficult and unreliable.

Hi,
welcome to CodeProject
1.
there are over 20000 articles here; at least one of them deals with Number To Text Converter[^]
2.
TextBox events are explained in the documentation. Use Google to locate them.

Hello,
I have a string variable in Form1. I receive the string from a datagrid
I want to pass it to form2 and use it there as a query to another datagrid in this form. How can i do it? I mean the passing of the variable itself?
|
|
|
|
|
Have a public property in Form2
public string QueryString
{
get; set;
}
Then when you create an instance of Form2
Form2 queryForm = new Form2();
queryForm.QueryString = "this is the string";
queryForm.ShowDialog();
then in queryForm the string is available to do whatever you want with.
