Hi
I am trying to check if a file is being written by another process.
I am using teh FileInfo (size) to see if the size (it is a log file) is changing.
When another process is writing to the file my application is stuck.
string fPath = @"c:\temp\build.log";<br />
FileInfo FI = new FileInfo(fPath);<br />
while (1>0)<br />
{<br />
if (lastvalue - FI.Length == 0)<br />
{<br />
iCounter++;<br />
lastvalue = FI.Length;<br />
if (iCounter > 20)<br />
{<br />
MessageBox.Show("times up");<br />
break;<br />
}<br />
<br />
}<br />
else<br />
iCounter = 0;<br />
lastvalue = FI.Length;<br />
<br />
<br />
Thread.Sleep(SleepTime);<br />
}
Any idea could help.
Have a nice Day

Hi!
One idea that's working fine in some of my programs is trying to open the target file exclusively (with FileShare.None).
If the file can be opened, no other process is accessing the file and thus the file has been created completely. If you get an IOException then sleep for a few ms and try again. Just don't forget to close the file afterwards and include a timeout mechanism so your program doesn't lock up if the file isn't closed because of a bug in the other application.

Thanks for the quick reply.
I understand your suggestion but the problem is that the process holding the file is loading a message box and until i press "ok" the file is still open by it.
The messagebox is not always present .
I want to get a message when the file is not updated anymore .
Have a nice Day

I fear you're out of luck in this case.
As long as the file is held open by the other application, this other application is free to modify the contents of the file at any given time. So you can never be sure that the other app will not write anything to the file. Depending on the architecture of the other app it could very well be that a background thread still writes to the file even though a message box is being displayed.

Hi,
I would like to stream the desktop image of one computer to another, over the internet. My idea is to do a screen capture at regular intervals, and send it to the receiver.
In order to reduce network load, I would like to compress each frame in function of the previous one (i.e., only the parts of the picture that have changed between two successive frames should be sent, and those parts are compressed before sending).
I suppose there must be an easy way (e.g., using a codec) to do this, but I can't seem to find it on the web/forums.
Can anyone help me out?
Thanks !

There are no easy ways, you have to calc the diff of 2 images yourself.

Hi,
how i can validate a formula.
Formula contains columns of table and operators.
if suppose c1,c2,c3 are columns of table, c1 is of type string, cs is decimal and c3 is int.
formula may be a+(b*c),or a*(b/c)

c1 needs to be turned into a number, with int.TryParse or double.TryParse. Then it will just work. Otherwise, it's not possible.

hi
i am new in c#.net.

1 - don't use your email as a username, it will get you spam
2 - there are tons of articles on the web on this, you should also buy a book and work through it, if you're new to C++.
All you need to do is store a number to represent the index of the record you want to read, and use that to read a record when a button is pressed.
I answered this same question the other day, worded exactly the same. Was it you ? If so, the reason you didn't understand my answer, is that you need to learn some basics first.

Then its valid to just post the same response, but you should at least have replaced C++ with C# in this forum  .

Hi Guys,
I'm trying to get into XNA v1.0 (..last time I touched it was Beta 1.) ...So, I'm building myself a terrain loader. Trying to get my Terrain class set up so that it can be given a heightmap file and it can initialize the size of the data array based upon the width & height of the file that is passed to it. Does anyone know of a way(preferrably a simple way) of accepting the path of a jpeg and getting the width and height out of the FileInfo?(I'm making an assumption that is where it is located, but I do not know for a fact)

Thanks for your help, but there is no System.Drawing namespace in the XNA Framework(System.Drawing is the wrapper around the GDI). Does anybody know of a method that doesn't use the GDI+?

JPEG file yourself, as in the following code:
public static Size GetJpegImageSize(string filename) {
FileStream stream=null;
BinaryReader rdr=null;
try {
stream=File.OpenRead(filename);
rdr=new BinaryReader(stream);
for(; ; ) {
byte code=rdr.ReadByte();
if(code!=0xFF) throw new ApplicationException(
"Unexpected value in file "+filename);
code=rdr.ReadByte();
switch(code) {
case 0xFF:
stream.Position--;
break;
case 0xD0: case 0xD1: case 0xD2: case 0xD3: case 0xD4:
case 0xD5: case 0xD6: case 0xD7: case 0xD8: case 0xD9:
break;
case 0xC0: case 0xC1: case 0xC2: case 0xC3:
case 0xC4: case 0xC5: case 0xC6: case 0xC7:
case 0xC8: case 0xC9: case 0xCA: case 0xCB:
case 0xCC: case 0xCD: case 0xCE: case 0xCF:
ReadBEUshort(rdr);
rdr.ReadByte();
ushort h=ReadBEUshort(rdr);
ushort w=ReadBEUshort(rdr);
return new Size(w, h);
default:
int len=ReadBEUshort(rdr);
stream.Position+=len-2;
break;
}
}
} finally {
if(rdr!=null) rdr.Close();
if(stream!=null) stream.Close();
}
}
private static ushort ReadBEUshort(BinaryReader rdr) {
ushort hi=rdr.ReadByte();
hi<<=8;
ushort lo=rdr.ReadByte();
return (ushort)(hi|lo);
}
A JPEG file contains a lot of packets (with Hufman tables and everything).
The above code does not know much about JPEG, it simply tries to jump from one packet
to the next until it finds one with size info.

Thanks a TON for that...did you just pull that off the top of your head? Or did you have reference material for that? What information did you refer to?

Hi,
I once wrote a JPEG file viewer based on the JPEG standard[^].
And today I threw out everything that was not needed when only Size matters...
|
|
|
|
|
...how long did it take you to parse through all of the W3C info to turn it into something useful?
Welcome my son...Welcome..to the Machine
|
|
|
|
|
Actually not very long, I did not read most of the spec, I just looked for the overall
structure (packets with 2B code and 2B length field) and a couple of specifics that did
interest me at the time. And with a simple viewer, I just looked inside a lot of JPEG files
to see what kind of information typically gets included.
BTW a lot of cameras add exposure information (make and model, datetime, image corrections,
etc) to the JPEG files they create, and the Image class allows you to retrieve these
using the getPropertyItem() method.

...I was thinking that I was going to have to find a way to pull the FileHeader off, store it in the .Net equivalent of a BITMAPFILEHEADER. Then, pull the InfoHeader off of the file and store it in the .NET equivalent of a BITMAPINFOHEADER...& pull the width & height from it
...or by using WMI. That was more along my line of thinking.

Hi,
The structs you mentioned exist in a .bmp file, not in a JPEG file.
And before you ask, no I dont have a BMP Viewer yet.
As for WMI, I dont think WMI would help looking at JPEGs; it is involved in system resources.
|
|
|
|
|
I know that WMI is for system resources, but I saw an example while I was doing online research where somebody went to the WMI classes for the owner of a specific file (I think he went to one of the Operating System's Win32_Security classes) ...I was just thinking that the information might be included with it *somewhere*
