C# - The Input Stream Is Not A Valid Binary Format / Cannot Use Binary As The Length Is Around 15.000
Feb 3, 2011
I have a problem with deserializing in C#/ASP.NET, which gives the exact error:
The input stream is not a valid binary format. The starting contents (in bytes) are: 41-41-45-41-41-41-44-2F-2F-2F-2F-2F-41-51-41-41-41 ...
What I am trying to do
I have a structure with 3 classes. I have a class A which is a base class, and then class B and C which are derived from A.
I am trying to store random types of B and C in the database using LINQ to SQL, in a column with the type VARCHAR(MAX).
I cannot use BINARY as the length is around 15.000.
My code...
[code]...
So the error happends when the first Deserialize method is run, with the above error.

I was wondering if there is any difference in performance (or any other important factor) between a file sent to the browser from our server by this method :
For i = 1 To fileSize chunk
If Not Response.IsClientConnected Then Exit For
Response.BinaryWrite stream.Read(chunk)
Response.Flush
Next
VS
the old plain file access method that the IIS comes with.
We are working on a file manager handler for security reasons and would like to know what is the performance hit.

I have an ASP.NET page with a text status and a button to export an Excel file. When the user clicks the button, I want to generate the file on the fly and return it to the client as binary stream. Then I want to change the text status to show success/failure.
So far I can generate and send the file no problem, but obviously the statuses don't get displayed, since the server response was used to send the file and not a new updated page with the new status.
I'm not sure what's the cleanest way to approach this. I can think of something but is it the best way:
User clicks on button. File is generated and saved as a stream in the session. Statuses are updated and the page with the new statuses is returned to the client. A piece of Javascript on the page opens a 3rd party page which retrieves the saved stream from the session.

I have a MS Chart Control and I'm trying to serialize the chart to view state. When teh page postbacks, I wnat to de-serialize the chart from ViewState, then load it back to the Chart's serializer. When the Chart1.Serializer.Load is called, I get an error message stating Data at the root level is invalid, line 1 position 1.
So here's what I have:
Chart1.Serializer.Format = System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting.SerializationFormat.Binary;
Chart1.Serializer.Content = System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting.SerializationContents.All;
Chart1.Serializer.Save(myStream);
ViewState["myStream"] = myStream.ToArray();
On postback, when the routine is called:
System.Byte [] byters;
System.IO.MemoryStream myStream = new System.IO.MemoryStream();
if (ViewState["myStream"] != null)
{
byters = (System.Byte[])ViewState["myStream"];
myStream.Write(byters,0,byters.Length);
myStream.Position = 0;
Chart1.Serializer.Load(myStream); // this line throws a XmlException - data at the root level is invalid. line 1 , position 1.
}
The length of the stream was 15,518 and capacity was 16,384 when it made the save. On postback, both capacity and length became 15,518.

I have been googling this and have not come along a working solution for an entire day. I don't know anything about binary data types (as I've never knowingly used them) and I'm trying to write a binary value that I see in the registry, to the registry. Now, all I see is the following [shown below]... and if I try to pass that as a string to the RegSetValueEx in the WinAPI and of course it errors out... I do not know what 'numbers' I need to pass into the lpData As Any, argument of RegSetValueEx (i tried a bit array) in order for it to come out as the following [shown below] in the regedit. I really have no idea, and my tests to place random numbers in the bit array just produce corresponding random "figures" as visible in regedit that I do not understand how to 'tie' them together logically.
here is the culprit!
[Code]...
If I had the following in a string or a bit array, what must I populate the bitarray with so that the registry outputs this [above] when written? or, how can I figure out how to do it? I was hoping there'd be a function that reads my string of binary data and transforms it into the real binary format to submit to the RegSetValueEx function in VB6 or other function in VB.Net or C# (this really is a language agnostic question, and the problem exists in all languages; ie: same process).

Since I'm new to coding and I'm trying to understand why here is a little more detail on the question.If you have a text box and you are limiting the input to say 2 charactrs do you really need to validate the input further? What I have is a text box that has a max length of 2. Is there a security reason to add a validator to the textbox. I should add this is in Asp.net.

i am trying to read file from a stream.
and i am using stream.read method to read the bytes. So the code goes like below
FileByteStream.Read(buffer, 0, outputMessage.FileByteStream.Length)
Now the above gives me error because the last parameter "outputMessage.FileByteStream.Length" returns a long type value but the method expects an integer type.
