Is the following pattern of multi-threaded calls acceptable to a .Net FileStream? Several threads calling a method like this: ulong offset = whatever; // different for each thread byte[] buffer = new byte[8192]; object state = someState; // unique for each call, hence also for each thread lock(theFile) { theFile.Seek(whatever, See...

Is converting a file to a byte array the best way to save ANY file format to disk or database var binary column? So if someone wants to save a .gif or .doc/.docx or .pdf file, can I just convert it to a bytearray UFT8 and save it to the db as a stream of bytes? ...
I need to be able to build all directories up to and including the directory specified by my File object. For example, suppose I have something like this: File file = new File( "/var/a/b/c/d/" ); But only /var/ exists.

I have an encrypted file X1, I have a Perl program P1 that decrypts the X1. I am parsing the decrypted file using a Perl program p2. X1--P1(decrypter) --> X2(plain text file) --p2(parser) --> parse output My parser is based on XML::Parser. It can work with a filehandle to the decrypted file. Now I am getting the X2 and storing it in t...
I'm trying to illustrate the difference in performance between traditional IO and memory mapped files in java to students. I found an example somewhere on internet but not everything is clear to me, I don't even think all steps are nececery. I read a lot about it here and there but I'm not convinced about a correct implementation of neit...

Hello, I need to read a whole file into memory and place it in a C++ std::string. If I were to read it into a char, the answer would be very simple: std::ifstream t; int lenght; t.open("file.txt"); // open input file t.seekg(0, std::ios::end); // go to the end length = t.tellg(); // report location (this is the leng...
I'm chasing a production bug that's intermittent enough to be a real bastich to diagnose properly but frequent enough to be a legitimate nuisance for our customers. While I'm waiting for it to happen again on a machine set to spam the logfile with trace output, I'm trying to come up with a theory on what it could be. Is there any way f...
