Hi there,
I was wondering if someone knows the C# equivalent for charCodeAt. This is een JScript method
that converts an string to Unicode and encodes this at base 16 (toString(16))
This project generates strong (WEP) key's for protecting WIFI access points.
Anyone got a clue??
Help would be appreciated!
This is the original JScript source
// generate a WEP key with the specified key length in bytes
//(5/13/16/29 bytes for 64/128/152/256-bit WEP
function gen_key(keyLengthInBytes) {<br />
for (i = 0; i < keyLengthInBytes; i++)<br />
{<br />
ascWEPkey += charArray[gen_prn()]; <br />
}<br />
<br />
for (i = 0; i < ascWEPkey.length; i++)<br />
{<br />
hexWEPkey += ascWEPkey.charCodeAt(i).toString(16);<br />
}<br />
}
This is what i got so far
private string ASCII_KEY, HEX_KEY;<br />
private char[] charArray = new char [95] { <br />
' ', '!', '"', '#', '$', '%', '&', '\'', '(', ')','*', '+', ',', '-', '.', '/', <br />
'0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7','8', '9', ':', ';', '<', '=', '>', '?', <br />

'p', 'q', 'r', 's', 't', 'u', 'v', 'w', 'x', 'y', 'z', '{', '|', '}', '~'};<br />
<br />
private void GenerateWEPKey(int KeyLength) {
for (int i = 0; i < KeyLength; i++) {<br />
ASCII_KEY += charArray[GenPseudoNo()];
}<br />
for (int i = 0; i < ASCII_KEY.Length; i++) {<br />
HEX_KEY += charCodeAt(ASCII_KEY,i);
}<br />
MessageBox.Show(HEX_KEY);<br />
}<br />
<br />
private int GenPseudoNo() {<br />
Random rdm = new Random();
return (int)Math.Floor(rdm.NextDouble() * charArray.Length);
}<br />
<br />
private string charCodeAt(string ASCII, int index) {<br />
System.Text.ASCIIEncoding AE = new System.Text.ASCIIEncoding ( );<br />
byte [ ] alphabetArray = AE.GetBytes ( ASCII );<br />
System.Text.StringBuilder sb = new System.Text.StringBuilder();<br />
<br />
for ( int x = 0; x <= alphabetArray.Length - 1; x++ ) {<br />
sb.Append ( string.Format ( "{0}", alphabetArray [ x ]));<br />
}<br />
return sb.ToString(index,2);<br />
}

String's in .NET are Unicode. To covert to hex format, use the "X" as defined by the NumberFormatInfo class.
string val = 114.ToString("X");
int num = Int32.Parse("126", System.Globalization.NumberStyles.HexNumber);

I need to be able to run an application on a local pc that is behind a firewall and get the internet ip address for the computer. does anyone know how this can be done in .net?
|

If you want the IP address of the computer behind the firewall (and you're outside), then you must define your protocol such that the IP address is included in the TCP (or UDP) message - not in the header (which is masked using the firewall's IP address with a NAT'd firewall). It probably won't do you much good, though, since 1) masked IP addresses are typically in the reserved range and don't route throughout the Internet, and 2) you still can't communicate with it directly.

ok but, here's the thing i'm not outside i have a client app that runs on the client pc and i have a server app that needs the ip. the problem i had is that i need the client ip so i can route connection from the server to the client kind of like a one chat. the only restriction is i can't give out the server ip. so that leaves me with the only one option to have the server connect to client. so that's my situation.

Well, if you intend on actually connecting to a client behind a firewall, make sure you set up port forwarding for it.
As for getting the IP, your only choice is to use a machine outside the local network. Something like make a HTTP query to whatsmyip.com and extract the result.

That's a pretty dumb restriction - knowing an IP isn't a problem; it's making sure that the server is secure that is. Even if the server establishes a connection with the client, it's easy to determine the IP address (it's in the TCP/IP headers!). But you probably can't do anything about that.
If both the client and server are on the same LAN, you can use a multicast group. See the class documentation[^] for the MulticastOption class in the .NET Framework SDK for more details and a client/server example. This uses UDP to send datagrams (connectionless IP, unlike TCP) to a multicast IP address (reserved range; it's not the server's IP). Everyone in the multicast group can receive the message and process it.

I would try this method that I used.
IPAddress ipAdress = IPAddress.Any;
IPEndPoint Enp = new IPEndPoint(ipAdress, 60001);
Socket m_soc = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork,SocketType.Stream, ProtocolType.Tcp);
m_soc.Bind(Enp);
//then do this to get the current IP&source port
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(m_soc.LocalEndPoint.ToString());
Try that..should work in a x.x.x.x:x format

You'll want to P/Invoke the FlashWindow native API. See http://pinvoke.net/default.aspx/user32.FlashWindow[^] for details. To get the window handle used in the first parameter, use the Handle property of your main form, or Process.GetCurrentProcess().MainWindowHandle (which is the HWND of the main form that was specified in Application.Run either directly or indirectly).
To make it flash an X number of times, you can either use a timer or something like this (might be a good idea to thread it so that execution isn't blocked just to flash the window):
int flash = 3;
for (int i=0; i<flash * 2; i++)
{
Thread.Sleep(250);
FlashWindow(Handle, true);
}

Hello.
I read the article "Getting active TCP/UDP connections on a box" in coldeproject.com.
My application get all tcp connections and should close user selected connections.
But I have 2 problems:
problem 1 : I want to close slelected port from Listening ports.
I wrote below code for it ,but this don't work properly:
[DllImport("iphlpapi.dll",SetLastError=true)]
public extern static int SetTcpEntry(IntPtr pTcpRow);
IPHlpAPI32Wrapper.MIB_TCPROW Kill=new IPHlpAPI32Wrapper.MIB_TCPROW();
IntPtr current= globaltablepointer;
//globaltablepointer poit to start of array of MIB_TCPROW structure
current=(IntPtr)((int) current+(listBox1.SelectedIndex*24));
Kill.dwstate = MIB_TCP_STATE_DELETE_TCB;
// iterate the pointer of 4
current = (IntPtr)((int)current+4);
Kill.dwLocalAddr=(int)Marshal.ReadIntPtr(current);
current = (IntPtr)((int)current+4);
Kill.dwLocalPort=(int)Marshal.ReadIntPtr(current);
current = (IntPtr)((int)current+4);
Kill.dwRemoteAddr=(int)Marshal.ReadIntPtr(current);
current = (IntPtr)((int)current+4);
Kill.dwRemotePort=(int)Marshal.ReadIntPtr(current);
IntPtr pt=Marshal.AllocHGlobal(Marshal.SizeOf(Kill));
Marshal.StructureToPtr(Kill,pt,true);
IPHelp.SetTcpEntry(pt);
problem 2 : What event happen when a port is opening.Is there any
message that I hook on it.
thanks

I'm currently working with windows desktop application. I have this installation package for my software as well, but when I install, then everything is just fine. Later, when I try to start my program from start menu, then it starts installation again. Why does this installation start?
Is there something wrong with this VS2003 installpackages? Application is written in C#.

hi forum,
I have made a signed XML document with MS Infopath 2003.
Is possible to extract a X.509 Certificate from the XML document and import it to a CAPICOM.Certificate class or a System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificate class?
thanks in advance.
|
|
|
|
|
You can use the classes in the System.Security.Cryptography.Xml namespace to get the SignedXml.SigningKey, which is an AsymmetricAlgorithm. From that an other information you can reconstruct the X.509 certificate that contains the public key.
While I don't cover this topic exactly, you might find some helpful hints in my article, Using XML Digital Signatures for Application Licensing[^]. Both this and the signatures used by InfoPath use the industry standard XML Digital Signature specification. You can find more information about that on the W3C[^] site as WS-Signature.

thank you,
finally, i did this:
<br />
<br />
System.Xml.XmlNodeList nodeList = XmlDoc.GetElementsByTagName("X509Certificate");<br />
XmlNode node = (XMLNode)nodelist[0];<br />
CAPICOM.Certificate certificates = new CAPICOM.CertificateClass()<br />
certificate.Import(node.InnerText);<br />
<br />
..and it seems that works well
|
|

|

What are you confused about? The InnerText is the base64-encoded X.509 certificate, so Import should have no problem reading it (as long as such a method accepts base64-encoded text, which that one obviously does).
You should really try to avoid interop'ing the CryptoAPI, however. Most of the functionality you most likely need is already in the .NET Framework SDK. Mixing like this creates additional requirements, not to mentioning that marshaling data types from managed to unmanaged code can be very time consuming for certain types.

ok. i'll try to do it without CryptoAPI.

Hello all,
I am writing a app in C# and would like some direction on threads. I have the UI classes that includes a another non UI class and the ui class regesters events with the worker class. I want the worker class to take care of doing work in another thread. so the UI hooks up event calls something in the worker class and the worker class creates a new thread does some work and then trigger the event, but it need to call the event back on the UI thread. Any ideas on how to do this? Or a better design? Ideally I would like a good article or example etc. to look at/read. Thanks
Luke
