Here's a quick question I've been banging my head against today. I'm trying to convert a .Net dataset into an XML stream, transform it with an xsl file in memory, then output the result to a new XML file. Here's the current solution: string transformXML = @"pathToXslDocument"; XmlDocument originalXml = new XmlDocumen...
I was surprised to find today that I couldn't track down any simple way to write the contents of an input stream to an output stream in Java. Obviously, the byte buffer code isn't difficult to write, but I suspect I'm just missing something which would make my life easier (and the code clearer). So, given an InputStream in and an Output...
I have a MemoryStream with the contents of a Font File (.ttf) and I would like to be able to create a FontFamily WPF object from that stream WITHOUT writing the contents of the stream to disk. I know this is possible with a System.Drawing.FontFamily but I cannot find out how to do it with System.Windows.Media.FontFamily. Note: I will on...
For years, I've been investigating how to create music streams from my computer. I've seen programs, but anything useful I've seen is windows only (I use a Mac). Eventually, I got interested in how streams work. Is there any way I could create my own stream, possibly using socket functions in PHP? Is there a PHP library for this? Th...
In my codes, fprintf return successful by returning the number of bytes written in STREAM, but in the actual file the string I put is not there. ...
Is there an easy way to avoid dealing with text encoding problems? ...
I use fdopen to associate a stream with an open file. When I close() the file, is the stream automatically disassociated as well, and all stream memory returned to the OS, or do I need to be aware of the fdopen'd file and close it in a specific manner? ...
How do I go about programmatically creating audio streams using Cocoa on the Mac. To make, say a white-noise generator using core frameworks on Mac OSX in Cocoa apps? ...
My C# class must be able to process a high volume of events received via a tcp stream style socket connection. The volume of event messages received from the tcp server by the class's socket is completely variable. For instance, sometimes it will only receive one event message in a period of ten seconds and at other times it will receive...
I'm trying to use the Stream.BeginWrite Async I/O API in .NET for a high-throughput situation with many short messages. As such, a scatter/gather API will reduce the number of context switches (and CPU usage) tremendously. Does this API use the LPBUFFERS Win32 API at all? Is there an alternative API for Scatter/Gather I/O? ...
What's the most efficient way to read a stream into another stream? In this case, I'm trying to read data in a Filestream into a generic stream. I know I could do the following: 1. read line by line and write the data to the stream 2. read chunks of bytes and write to the stream 3. etc I'm just trying to find the most efficient way. ...
I often run into the problem that I have one stream full of data and want to write everything of it into another stream. All code-examples out there use a buffer in form of a byte-array. Is there a more elegant way to this? If not, what's the ideal size of the buffer. Which factors make up this value? ...
In order to improve performance reading from a file, I'm trying to read the entire content of a big (several MB) file into memory and then use a istringstream to access the information. My question is, which is the best way to read this information and "import it" into the string stream? A problem with this approach (see bellow) is that...
This is something simple I came up with for this question. I'm not entirely happy with it and I saw it as a chance to help improve my use of STL and streams based programming. std::wifstream file(L"\\Windows\\myini.ini"); if (file) { bool section=false; while (!file.eof()) { std::wstring line; std::getline(file, line); ...
I am trying to read an Http response stream twice via the following: HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse(); stream = response.GetResponseStream(); RssReader reader = new RssReader(stream); do { element = reader.Read(); if (element is RssChannel) { feed.Channels.Add((RssChannel)element); } } while ...
I'm looking for some suggestions on how to go about this. Any input is appreciated! Currently, I have an ASP.NET MVC application. On the client, I have a link with an ID of an XPS document. When the user clicks the link, they are taken to a page with details about the document. In addition to this information, I wish to display the ...
Alright, I have been doing the following (variable names have been changed): FileInputStream fis = null; try { fis = new FileInputStream(file); ... process ... if (fis != null) fis.close(); } catch (IOException e) { ... blah blah blah ... } Recently, I started using FindBugs, which suggests that I am not p...
Hello world! I have a slight problem reading data from file. I want to be able to read wstring's, aswell as a chunk of raw data of arbitrary size (size is in bytes). std::wfstream stream(file.c_str()); std::wstring comType; stream >> comType; int comSize; stream >> comSize; char *comData = new char[comSize]; memset(comData, 0, comS...
I would like to be able to spawn a linux process that would only have access to stdin, stdout, and stderr (nothing more and nothing less). Can I do this at the process level itself? I am also implicitly stating (oxymoron) that I don't want the spawned process to be able to change the "thing" that the other end of the stream points to. ...
What's the best way to pipe the output from an java.io.OutputStream to a String in Java? Say I have the method: writeToStream(Object o, OutputStream out) Which writes certain data from the object to the given stream. However, I want to get this output into a String as easily as possible. I'm considering writing a class like this (...
