I'm pretty sure it's even built into tiolet paper judging by some of the posts.
Don't blame me. I voted for Chuck Norris.

...I'm hoping that this is a stupid question:
I'm needing to pull a CLOB field off of an Oracle table. It just so happens that the character string that was input into that CLOB field conforms to an XML Schema, with a few character replacement tweaks that I have to scrub. less than signs have been replaced with amp lt; and greater than signs have been replaced with amp gt;
I mention that because it throws a significant wrinkle into the processing that I have to do. I have to pull a CLOB out of a DataReader's stream, scrub the string, and then dump the string back into a (MemoryStream???) to pass into the XML DOM objects. I have no idea if this is even close to what I need to be doing, as I have very little experience working directly with Streams in this way.
Can someone tell me how they would go about pulling the string data out of the DataReader stream and passing it into an XMLTextReader as a separate stream for parsing?
Am I even on the right path?

hi, I create a table with the below code. Everything is okay but I can not set the "identity specification" property to yes.
This is okay without identity parameter
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(@"Create table ItemStock (Itemno tinyint, Urun nchar(20),Fiyat float, primary key(Itemno))", baglan);
This is not okay with identity parameter
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(@"Create table ItemStock (Itemno tinyint, Urun nchar(20),Fiyat float, primary key(Itemno), Set Identity_insert(Itemno) on", baglan);
|
|
|
|
|
try somewthing like this:
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(@"Create table ItemStock (Itemno tinyint IDENTITY(1,1) Primary Key Clustered,
Urun nchar(20),Fiyat float)", baglan);
If it still doesn't work try replacing the type from tinyint to int.
the (1,1) after IDENTITY represents the identity seed(start) and the increment.

worked fine with tinyint, thank you very much! By the way, I used Primary key(columnname) but you mentioned Primary key Clustured. what is the difference?
|
|
|
|

A clustered index will store the records in approximately the order of the index. That can be useful if you read a range of records because they can all be read from the hard drive without performing extra seeks. Since the data can only be ordered one way, you can only have one clustered index on each table. Typically, the primary key is chosen as the clustered index, unless you have a good reason to choose another one.

I'm trying to pass a variable from a GridViewRowEvent method to a DataListItemEvent method in a C# program.
I have the following:
public void My_RowDataBound2(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
int lblAmount = (int)DataBinder.Eval(e.Row.DataItem, "Amount");
totalAmount += lblAmount;
x += 1;
}
else
{
CountNumberRows(x);
}
}
public int CountNumberRows(int x) { return x; }
public void My_ItemDataBound(object sender, DataListItemEventArgs e) {
if (e.Item.DataItem != null)
{
Label dummyVariable = (Label)e.Item.FindControl("abc");
abc.Text = CountNumberRows(x).ToString();
}
}
Then in my ASP.NET file I have the following entry:
DataList
...
Gridview
...
Gridview
...
<asp:Label ID="abc" runat="server"></asp>
...
DataList
And I get just "0" for the "abc" value in my file. I know the GridViewEvent method works because the variable
totalAmount correctly sums up all the data each time it is called by My_RowDataBound2, and inserted into the appropriate place in the GridView on my ASP.NET Page. But "abc" just shows 0. abc is just supposed to show the number of rows contained in the GridView.
Basically, I just need to get the "x" value from
My_RowDataBound2 method, pass it to the
My_ItemDataBound event which then passes it as a label to the ASP.NET Page. But the label is just showing "0"
If I take:
public int CountNumberRows(int x) { return x; } and change it to:
public int CountNumberRows(int x) { x= "123"; return x; } , it passes the "123" to the abc label. But I don't know how to pass the x calculation out of the GridView to the DataList. Any suggestions? I appreciate your help

Dear all,
How can i get the names of the directories of a ftp server in c#?
Thanks.

FtpWebRequest ftp = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(new Uri("ftp://" + server + "/"));
ftp.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.ListDirectory;
WebResponse response = ftp.GetResponse();
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream());

Hi Mark,
Thank you for reply, but with this code you will get the file names.
What i need is the folder names.

You have what you need to research for yourself

In C# app i need to check if a file is a text file or is a binary file,
how can i do this ?
i can't check by file extension, because isn't meaningful for me .
|

i've found a solutions, if can be useful for someone else :
static bool IsTextFile(string fileName)
{
byte[] file;
using (System.IO.FileStream stream = new System.IO.FileStream(fileName, System.IO.FileMode.Open, System.IO.FileAccess.Read))
{
file = new byte[stream.Length];
stream.Read(file, 0, file.Length);
}
if (file.Length > 3 && ((file[0] == 0x00 && file[1] == 0x00 && file[2] == 0xFE && file[2] == 0xFF /*UCS-4*/)))
return true;
else if (file.Length > 2 && ((file[0] == 0xEF && file[1] == 0xBB && file[2] == 0xBF /*UTF-8*/)))
return true;
else if (file.Length > 1 && ((file[0] == 0xFF && file[1] == 0xFE /*Unicode*/)))
return true;
else if (file.Length > 1 && (file[0] == 0xFE && file[1] == 0xFF /*Unicode Big Endian*/))
return true;
else
{
for (int i = 0; i < file.Length; i++)
if (file[i] > 0x80)
return false;
return true;
}
}
Bye

Edit: how about this?
static bool IsText(byte[] data)

return true;
if (IsValidUTF8(data))
return true;
if (IsValidUTF16(data))
return true;
return false;
}
static bool IsValidUTF16(byte[] data)
{
if ((data.Length & 1) == 1)
return false;
bool LittleEndian;
ushort BOM = BitConverter.ToUInt16(data, 0);
if (BOM == 0xFFFE)
LittleEndian = false;
else if (BOM == 0xFEFF)
LittleEndian = true;
else
return false;

for (int i = 2; i < data.Length; i+=2)
{
int code;

code = data[i] | (data[i + 1] << 8);
else
code = (data[i] << 8) | data[i + 1];
if (SecondOfSurrogatePair)
{
if (code < 0xDC00 || code > 0xDFFF)
return false;
SecondOfSurrogatePair = false;
}
else
{
if (code >= 0xD800 && code <= 0xDBFF)
SecondOfSurrogatePair = true;
}
}
return SecondOfSurrogatePair;
}
static bool IsValidUTF8(byte[] data)
{
int index = 0;
if (data[0] == 0xEF)
{
if (data[1] != 0xBB ||
data[2] != 0xBF)
return false;
index = 3;
}
int mode = 0;
for (int i = index; i < data.Length; i++)
{
switch (mode)
{
case 0:
if (data[i] < 0x80)
break;

default:

I suppose you could tests to see if there are any unprintable characters, too.

Btw, could I get some feedback on code this, please? Specifically on whether the result is correct as far as it tests, this test is "supposed to" be very optimistic in what it accepts as text, so I'm especially interested in whether there are valid UTF-16 or UTF-8 strings that get rejected by the test. I'm not exactly a Unicode expert..

This isn't going to work in all cases since there is no requirement for a text file to have byte order marks. Also, what if the binary file just happens to have those very bytes in the place where you would normally have byte order marks?
What do you do if there are NO byte order marks (which is most text files anyway...)?

Hey, what happened to DOS/Windows marking the End Of File with Ctrl+Z (26) when it's a text file? 
|
|
|
|
|
That character never made it into the text file. I only ever saw it used when copying from CON to a file. Ctrl-Z just denoted the end of the stream that was being typed.
|
|
|
|
|
Text mode reading wouldn't return it, but I used to see it when reading text files in binary mode.
|
|
|
|

That is not in general possible, you can at best make a "pretty good guess".
For example you can first check whether the file is a valid UTF-8 string, if the file is sufficiently big the chance is very small that a non-text file is accidentally valid UTF-8.
But you can't be quite sure, an invalid UTF-8 string could be made invalid because it is slightly corrupted or badly encoded and still "be"* text, and a binary file could accidentally (although the chance is quite small) be valid UTF-8.
Btw, ASCII files will validate as valid UTF-8.
And you could add some other things, such as checking for a byte order mark and/or UTF-16
* let's not argue about the meaning of "being a text file", but there are several ways to look at it, for example "if it can be decoded to text, it is a text file regardless of whether the text is meaningful" or "if and only if it was originally written as a text file, it is a text file"
If you know the text is going to be in a particular language you have some more options, such as checking the statistical properties of the text against expected values based on the language - that is still no sure-fire way to know whether something is actually text or even to reject all non-text, though.
No matter what you do with the result of the "text test", it had better be robust enough to handle "accidental non-text", and having a "I am sure this is text, do it anyway" option may be useful too.

I think if I ever need to create a binary file format, I'll be sure to start it with 0xFFFE.

That's my point of view.
I still want to know why the original poster wants to do this.

Win! 
For extra points, make the rest of the file valid UTF-16

Yea me too, I always get curious when people want to do things that are theoretically impossible. Which this is. I'd also like to know whether he's going to put in his own, rather brittle, test.. and I'll admit that my own code isn't that much better
