Web Forms :: Reading A File Into Stream And Saving It To A Location?
Oct 8, 2010
I have a third party CMS system that can create forms but can't manage true File upload capabities. I am able to get users brows for thier file and have the value submited to my custom .net code behind page for processing. So I end up with like "C:somefilefoldersomefile.doc".
But on my processing page I want to read this file (like the file uploader) and save it to a location. I tried using the file uploader control (but have it not visible) but realized I can't preset it as I was planning to set it and do the normal processing from there. Is there another way to do this?
I need to be able to read an excel file from a file upload control but I can not save the file to disk first, it must be done in memory.
[Code]....
Above is my code for reading the data file if it IS saved to disk, but again, I have to be able to do this without saving the file to disk, it must be done in memory. I have not been able to find any sample code anywhere on how to do this from memory, everything seems to force the file be uploaded, saved to disk, and then read in the connection string, which again I can not do.
I have an excel file in my Response Output stream. I can Open the stream as a file after a prompt, but it doesn't seem I can save it directly to a specified folder on my client.
I have a stream object in which I have some document, I know what document is it, how can I open that document without saving it into a file physically. So I want to directlly open the document from stream itself without saving it.How to do that? I doing it in c#
I am trying to use a custom ITempDataProvider provider to store TempData in a browser's cookie instead of session state. However, everything works fine except that I am unable to remove the cookie from the Response stream after reading it. The code exexutes fine but the cookie won't go away.
i have a application which use to store video in sql databasei want to have a function which should have return type of video so that i can pass it to player in next page, for that i have retrived it as byte stream but dont know how to return it as video file.if i am going wrong then suggest me some other way.Note video are based on authentication so no way to switch to file system
I would like to be able to read an image based on a url hosted elsewhere. To be clear, this is a legitimate service that is provided and they do allow caching of data, so I'm not trying to steal someone elses data.
The area that I'm looking to improve on is the emboldened line. I think it would be better to read in say 1024k chunks until the file end. Can anyone help me out with the syntax for this?
I know this is probably a pretty easy thing to do and it is if I can upload the file and store it onto the hard drive of the server. What I need to do is read the text file into memory and then parse through it one line at a time. Anyone have any code that demonstrates that?
So I would like my solution to save in the same folder as the rest of my files. I am a win forms developer so web is new to me.
1) Is there any reason why I shouldn't do that for web.
2) Second how do I do that. I know that I can change the solution's saving location by changing ToolsOptionProjects & SolutionsProject's Location. However, I just want it to use the location of the new website I create and not that specification.
I would like ask you for some ideas how can I write mechanism that will be automatically read files from folder. I don't know how to schedule the write task. I want to check for new file everyday and if the new file is in the folder read it.
I changed an app so one of the edit screens opens as a pop-up window via showModalDialog. Previously everything was done in the same window and more back and forth navigation was required. The pop-up provides greater continuity. Unfortunately, as a pop-up, files will not stream to the desktop. If I bring up the page by entering a URL on the address line, so it is not a pop-up, files stream to the desktop OK.
Streaming a file to the desktop is done as follows:
[Code]....
This causes an open/save/cancel dialog to appear in the browser. Does anyone have an idea why a file cannot be streamed to a pop-up window? To get pop-ups to work I always include
[Code]....
in the header. That way I can open other pop-ups such as warnings and database error messages from a prvious pop-up.
I don't think there is a way around this but figured I'd ask... We have an application where a user can generate PDF documents that are streamed to the browser. There is some additional functionality going on behind the scene and I would like to be able to display a message to the user (via updating a literal tag on the page). I don't get any errors when doing this but the page isn't updated and the message isn't displayed. My guess is that streaming the document blocks any other content from going down to the client. In particular, we're using CeTe Dynamic PDF and calling one of their methods but I think it's essentially just doing a Response.BinaryWrite to stream out the PDF.
I have made an application where I am displaying the .pdf , .doc , .docx files. These files are uploading from an Admin Panel.When user place a mouse pointer on download icon provided in front of every file, it shows the complete path where it’s get saved.I want to avoid this path visibility even when user place mouse on download icon and even if it Inspect an element (as most modern browser will have this functionality).
I'm using Filestream for read big file (> 500 MB) and I get the OutOfMemoryException. Any solutions about it?? I want this in my app asp.net: Read DATA from Oracle Uncompress file using FileStream and BZip2 Read file uncompressed and send it to asp.net page for download. When I read file from disk, Fails !!! and get OutOfMemory. My Code is:
using (var fs3 = new FileStream(filePath2, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)) { byte[] b2 = ReadFully(fs3, 1024); } // [URL] public static byte[] ReadFully(Stream stream, int initialLength) { // If we've been passed an unhelpful initial length, just // use 32K. if (initialLength < 1) { initialLength = 32768; } byte[] buffer = new byte[initialLength]; int read = 0; int chunk; while ((chunk = stream.Read(buffer, read, buffer.Length - read)) > 0) { read += chunk; // If we've reached the end of our buffer, check to see if there's // any more information if (read == buffer.Length) { int nextByte = stream.ReadByte(); // End of stream? If so, we're done if (nextByte == -1)............................
Assume we have the access to sth.avi on [URL] with a direct link.
e.g : [URL] Also we have a website => www.dl2.com.
Now, we wanna let some users to download sth.avi from [URL], but we don't have enough space on [URL] to save sth.avi. Is it possible in ASP.NET for us to read sth.avi from www.dl.com as streaming file and share it without saving the file on our domain.
P.S: I don't wanna share this link [URL], actually I wanna share something like this link [URL]
but when I tried to add the service reference to the silverlight app, the Add Service Reference window would show me that there was a service file, but the node wouldn't expand to show the rest of the files that contain the services and what not. I got this error instead:
"An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately."
"Parser Error Message:There is no service behavior named 'AdventureWorks_WebServer.Service1Behavior'."
"Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: 'http://localhost:55579/Service1.svc'.
The server did not provide a meaningful reply; this might be caused by a contract mismatch, a premature session shutdown or an internal server error.
If the service is defined in the current solution, try building the solution and adding the service reference again."
