mystr = mystr.TrimEnd('\0');

Of course it won't change the string it will return a new one. Strings are immutable. Sorry if the answer wasn't clear enoguh. PIEBALDconsult provided a full answer, and so did many others.

This works (I tested it):
byte[] test = { 0x41, 0x42, 0 };
string mystr = ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetString(test);
if (mystr.EndsWith("\0"))
{
mystr = mystr.Substring(0, mystr.Length - 1);
}

If you trying to convert a byte array to string, stopping on the first null, then try:
byte[] ab = { 0x41, 0x42, 0x43, 0, 0x44, 0x45 };
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(ab.Length);
foreach (byte b in ab)
{
if (b == 0)
{
break;
}
sb.Append((char) b);
}
string s = sb.ToString();
I don't know of a built-in way to do it (though I have been wrong before).

I thought Marshal.PtrToStringAnsi did that.. You have to give it a pointer though, so you need unsafe code.

I told you I could be wrong! Not too happy recommending unsafe code for this task, though - I prefer to keep it for when I need it (like converting strings to secure strings)

That just sounds ironic...needing "unsafe" code to create "secure" strings

I know what you mean! 
The problem is that managed (or safe) strings are duplicated, copied and may (or may not) be deleted - the unmanaged (or unsafe) stuff is more under your control, and thus "safer". I blame Microsoft for not introducing a "Secure" keyword for variables...

I probably wouldn't use it either (seems a bit like a canon to kill an ant, right?) but it exists

Hi,
GetString converts all the bytes from ASCII to Unicode, and 0 is a valid character, it is ASCII NULL.
If you know there is a NULL, then use ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetString(test, 0, test.Length-1);

IMO that is too much of a code to read. Are you trying to merge two files?

It would be very unusual for anybody to share an Email address with people they don't know.
You would help people to read your code if you put it between <pre></pre> tags, and format it properly, with indents and so on. Also only post relevant code, there is far too much in your question.

As I said, format your code, cut out anything not directly related to the problem and then more people will be likely to read it and offer suggestions.
At the moment I am not prepared to strain my eyes and brain, trying to read your code. Therefore I am unable to help resolve your problem.

Hi Henry,
Thanks for your proposal. But I dont think it would be easier to understand for other people if I shorten it out. But I have another suggestion. If you can compile the code and then I can give you the example of security.txt and position.txt and then you may see the result and the problem itself.
Any thoughts?

I can't speak for Henry, but I would not compile and run source code from someone I didn't know well and hadn't examined thoughly - any more than I would run an EXE file I "just found" on a website.

But if you just go through a bit you would never find that it is anything harmful. Actually I am new in this language and facing a tough problem wanted to share with others so that I can get the help. But I think my thinking or point of view was wrong.

Sam

I think that is Henry's point - we don't want to go though all that stuff. You have to remember that we don't get paid for this - so we aren't going to put ourselves out too much unless we are really interested. Large amounts of unformatted, dull looking code with a "it doesn't allways work properly" comment are unlikely to be looked at.
A short, snappy formatted code fragment with "why does it ignore all lines with 'Banana' in them?" is a lot more likely to get a good response.

You carry on being right and doing it your way.
I'll carry on not helping you, as, I suspect, will most others.

Why do you think that ? you're dead wrong. If you actually try to debug it yourself, you'll either find the answer, or come up with a code snippet that you can intelligently explain what you expect, and what it is doing. What you're saying right now is, I wrote all this code, and I'm too dumb to understand it, so you do the work for me.

Hi Christian,
Thanks for your reply. I tried with all of my little knowledge. But was undone fully. Somewhere I am doing something silly so my exe is not working exactly. Since my code is dependant with other two files, I am not able to understand where there something is misiing in source files or in source code. That was the reason I posted all the source code.
Regards,
Sam
