I have these requirements coming from client every week for some new logic or verification. For which I have to code new logic (basically some if-else and loops) and launch a new build for him. I want to avoid it by simply coding my logic in visual studio then writing a utility to export it to XML or something and send it to client via e-mail. He just have to place this file in some appropriate folder and the application will behave considering this logic.
Please suggest some solutions. My platform is C# Asp.Net.
Thanks
Using .NET 4.6 and the NuGetPackage Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Scripting you could implement a scripting engine to run your c# code residing in a textfile without building an assembly.
Install NuGet Package:
Install-Package Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Scripting.CSharp
Implement TestClass with some basic C#-Code-Content:
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
TestScript();
}
private static async void TestScript()
{
// Code snippet: a class with one string-property.
string codeContent = #" using System;
public class ScriptedClass
{
public string HelloWorld { get; set; }
public ScriptedClass()
{
HelloWorld = ""Hello Roslyn!"";
}
}
new ScriptedClass().HelloWorld";
// Instanciate CSharpScriptEngine
var engine = new CSharpScriptEngine();
// Execute code and return string property (HelloWorld)
var scriptingState = await engine.ExecuteAsync(codeContent);
// Print return value from CSharpScript
Console.WriteLine("Returned from CSharpScript: {0}", scriptingState.ReturnValue);
Console.WriteLine("Press any key to continue.");
Console.ReadKey();
}
}
Implement a ScriptingEngine:
internal sealed class CSharpScriptEngine
{
public async Task<ScriptState<object>> ExecuteAsync(string codeContent)
{
// Add references from calling assembly
ScriptOptions options = ScriptOptions.Default.AddReferences(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly());
// Run codeContent with given options
return await CSharpScript.RunAsync(codeContent, options);
}
}
Read ScriptCode from textfile:
So basically you could read some csharpcode from a textfile of your choice and run them on the fly:
private static async void TestScript()
{
// Read in script file
string codeContent = File.ReadAllText(#"C:\Temp\CSharpScriptTest.cs");
var engine = new CSharpScriptEngine();
// Run script
var scriptingState = await engine.ExecuteAsync(codeContent);
Console.WriteLine("Returned from CSharpScript: {0}", scriptingState.ReturnValue);
Console.WriteLine("Press any key to continue.");
Console.ReadKey();
}
In case you are wondering how all of this works under the hood, Roslyn will create a so called submission from your script code. A submission is an in memory assembly containing the types generated around your script code, which can be identified among the assemblies in the current AppDomain by a ℛ prefix in the name.
The precise implementation details are not important here (though, for example, scriptcs heavily relies on understanding in detail how Roslyn works to provide its extra features), but it's important to know that submissions can be chained together. When they are chained, variables, methods or classes defined in an earlier submission are available to use in subsequent submissions, creating a feature of a C# REPL (read-evaluate-print loop).
C# and Visual Basic - Use Roslyn to Write a Live Code Analyzer for Your API
Hope it helps
I want to be able to read the VS build configurations programmatically. That is because I want to create my own builder.
How do I do that? Does anyone have code example?
What i mean is that if I have Debug, Development, Release I want them to be listed in a list box in a Form application. I have tried using the "EnvDTE.dll" class but I am not sure it is what I am looking for. If anyone has a concrete example or link to an example I would be more than grateful.
You can use the msbuild API. In Visual Studio 2015, there is a class called Microsoft.Build.Construction.SolutionFile in the Microsoft.Build.dll that ships with VS2015 that you can use to load a solution.
In VS2013 there is no such thing, but you can do the following:
(reference Microsoft.Build.dll, Microsoft.Build.Engine.dll, Microsoft.Build.Framework.dll)
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
string nameOfSolutionForThisProject = #"MySolutionFile.sln";
string wrapperContent = SolutionWrapperProject.Generate(nameOfSolutionForThisProject, toolsVersionOverride: null, projectBuildEventContext: null);
byte[] rawWrapperContent = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(wrapperContent.ToCharArray());
using (MemoryStream memStream = new MemoryStream(rawWrapperContent))
using (XmlTextReader xmlReader = new XmlTextReader(memStream))
{
Project proj = ProjectCollection.GlobalProjectCollection.LoadProject(xmlReader);
foreach (var p in proj.ConditionedProperties)
{
Console.WriteLine(p.Key);
Console.WriteLine(string.Join(", ", p.Value));
}
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
ConditionedProperties contains a list of platforms and configurations contained in the solution. You can use this to populate your forms.
I have to migrate a vb6 program to C# .net 3.5
the user starts SAP logon and authenticates,
then he can use the tool to fetch and insert the data using the tool
the problem:
i can create a new GuiApplication with reflection, but i can't fetch currently opened GuiSessions with it :/
here is the vb6 part of the code that gets currently opened GuiApplication with all opened GuiSessions
Dim obj As Object
Set obj = CreateObject("SAPGUI")
Set obj = obj.GetScriptingEngine
If TypeName(obj) = "GuiApplication" Then
Set SapAutomationObject = obj
SapAutomationObject.AllowSystemMessages = False
Debug.Print "SAP Automation OK"
End If
i tried it with reflection:
GuiApplication Application = (GuiApplication)System.Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetTypeFromProgID("SapGui.ScriptingCtrl.1"));
i got an instance but no existing sessions
public static void testConnection()
{
SapROTWr.CSapROTWrapper sapROTWrapper = new SapROTWr.CSapROTWrapper();
object SapGuilRot = sapROTWrapper.GetROTEntry("SAPGUI");
object engine = SapGuilRot.GetType().InvokeMember("GetSCriptingEngine", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.InvokeMethod,
null, SapGuilRot, null);
SAPconnection.sapGuiApp = engine as GuiApplication;
GuiConnection connection = sapGuiApp.Connections.ElementAt(0) as GuiConnection;
GuiSession session = connection.Children.ElementAt(0) as GuiSession;
MessageBox.Show(session.Info.User + " !!||!! " + session.Info.Transaction);
}
Use This method, you have to reference SapROTWr.DLL which is in the sapgui folder of your SAP installation.
This works for me (SAP 730 / Win7):
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using SAPFEWSELib;
using SapROTWr;
namespace FIT.SapHelper
{
public static class stcSapHelper
{
public static void testConnection()
{
SapROTWr.CSapROTWrapper sapROTWrapper = new SapROTWr.CSapROTWrapper();
object SapGuilRot = sapROTWrapper.GetROTEntry("SAPGUI");
object engine = SapGuilRot.GetType().InvokeMember("GetScriptingEngine", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, null, SapGuilRot, null);
GuiConnection connection = (engine as GuiApplication).OpenConnection("BOX DESCRIPTION");
GuiSession session = connection.Children.ElementAt(0) as GuiSession;
}
}
}
Assuming that SAPGUI is a COM object then you should be able to take a reference to it and create it as a new object without using reflection. i.e. Use early binding and not late binding even though the original VB6 code is using 'late binding'
Secondly, assuming late binding, shouldn't the Type.GetTypeFromProgID("SapGui.ScriptingCtrl.1") fragment be Type.GetTypeFromProgID("SapGui") to match the original VB6? you might need to check on the object model for SAPGUI to make sure you're referencing the right object.
the only solution that i found to work with running sessions is to load that code in a dll and access it via c#
SAP released SAP .NET connector to provide standartized way to interact with SAP system from within of .NET application. Look at http://service.sap.com/connectors, you must be SAP partner to be able access to the page
I am using the following code under ASP.NET 4.0 framework to obtain the version of MSI file from a web app:
string strVersion = "";
try
{
Type InstallerType;
WindowsInstaller.Installer installer;
InstallerType = Type.GetTypeFromProgID("WindowsInstaller.Installer");
installer = (WindowsInstaller.Installer)Activator.CreateInstance(InstallerType);
WindowsInstaller.Database db = installer.OpenDatabase(strMSIFilePath, 0);
WindowsInstaller.View dv = db.OpenView("SELECT `Value` FROM `Property` WHERE `Property`='ProductVersion'");
WindowsInstaller.Record record = null;
dv.Execute(record);
record = dv.Fetch();
strVersion = record.get_StringData(1).ToString();
dv.Close();
//db.Commit();
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.FinalReleaseComObject(dv);
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.FinalReleaseComObject(db);
}
catch
{
//Failed
strVersion = "";
}
It works fine except that when the code finishes running it holds an internal MSI file handle so when I try to move or rename the MSI file I get the error that the file is still in use. This continues until I actually navigate away from the ASPX page that calls the method above.
My question is, I obviously didn't close some handle or object in the code above. But what could that be?
PS. I'm testing it in a development IDE from VS2010.
EDIT: Edited the code like it should be after Adriano's suggestion. Thanks!
The COM object has not been released (it should be auto-released when it goes out of scope but in .NET this doesn't work really well). Because it does not implement the IDisposable interface you can't call its Dispose() method and you can't use it inside an using statement. You have to explicitly call Marshal.FinalReleaseComObject. For example:
try
{
// Your stuffs
}
finally
{
dv.Close();
Marshal.FinalReleaseComObject(dv);
Marshal.FinalReleaseComObject(db);
}
Moreover note that you do not really need a call to the Commit() method because you didn't make any change but just a query.
FWIW, you should be using Windows Installer XML (WiX) Deployment Tools Foundation (DTF). It's an FOSS project from Microsoft that can be found on CodePlex. It has MSI interop libraries with classes that are very similar to the COM classes but implement IDisosable and use P/Invoke instead of COM behind the scenes. There is even support for Linq to MSI if you want. And the full source code is available.
DTF is the gold standard for MSI interop in a .NET world. Here are two examples:
using System;
using System.Linq;
using Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller;
using Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.Linq;
namespace ConsoleApplication3
{
class Program
{
const string DATABASE_PATH = #"C:\FOO..MSI";
const string SQL_SELECT_PRODUCTVERSION = "SELECT `Value` FROM `Property` WHERE `Property`='ProductVersion'";
static void Main(string[] args)
{
using (Database database = new Database(DATABASE_PATH, DatabaseOpenMode.ReadOnly))
{
Console.WriteLine(database.ExecuteScalar(SQL_SELECT_PRODUCTVERSION).ToString());
}
using (QDatabase database = new QDatabase(DATABASE_PATH, DatabaseOpenMode.ReadOnly))
{
var results = from property in database.Properties where property.Property == "ProductVersion" select property.Value;
Console.WriteLine(results.AsEnumerable<string>().First());
}
}
}
}
try to Dispose the Objects.
dv.Dispose();
db.Dispose();
Instead of running an external program with its path hardcoded, I would like to get the current Project Dir. I'm calling an external program using a process in the custom task.
How would I do that? AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory just gives me the location of VS 2008.
using System;
using System.IO;
// This will get the current WORKING directory (i.e. \bin\Debug)
string workingDirectory = Environment.CurrentDirectory;
// or: Directory.GetCurrentDirectory() gives the same result
// This will get the current PROJECT bin directory (ie ../bin/)
string projectDirectory = Directory.GetParent(workingDirectory).Parent.FullName;
// This will get the current PROJECT directory
string projectDirectory = Directory.GetParent(workingDirectory).Parent.Parent.FullName;
You can try one of this two methods.
string startupPath = System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory();
string startupPath = Environment.CurrentDirectory;
Tell me, which one seems to you better
If a project is running on an IIS express, the Environment.CurrentDirectory could point to where IIS Express is located ( the default path would be C:\Program Files (x86)\IIS Express ), not to where your project resides.
This is probably the most suitable directory path for various kinds of projects.
AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory
This is the MSDN definition.
Gets the base directory that the assembly resolver uses to probe for assemblies.
The proper1 way to get the root folder of a C# project is to leverage the [CallerFilePath] attribute to obtain the full path name of a source file, and then subtract the filename plus extension from it, leaving you with the path to the project.
Here is how to actually do it:
In the root folder of your project, add file ProjectSourcePath.cs with the following content:
internal static class ProjectSourcePath
{
private const string myRelativePath = nameof(ProjectSourcePath) + ".cs";
private static string? lazyValue;
public static string Value => lazyValue ??= calculatePath();
private static string calculatePath()
{
string pathName = GetSourceFilePathName();
Assert( pathName.EndsWith( myRelativePath, StringComparison.Ordinal ) );
return pathName.Substring( 0, pathName.Length - myRelativePath.Length );
}
}
The string? requires a pretty late version of C# with #nullable enable; if you don't have it, then just remove the ?.
The Assert() function is my own; you can replace it with your own, or omit it, if you like living your life dangerously.
The function GetSourceFilePathName() is defined as follows:
using System.Runtime.CompilerServices
public static string GetSourceFilePathName( [CallerFilePath] string? callerFilePath = null ) //
=> callerFilePath ?? "";
Once you have the above, you can use it as follows:
string projectSourcePath = ProjectSourcePath.Value;
1 'proper' as in: fool-proof; sure-fire; without presumptions; not being held together by shoestrings; not bound to work for some projects but fail for others; not likely to horribly break without a warning when you change unrelated things; etc.
This will also give you the project directory by navigating two levels up from the current executing directory (this won't return the project directory for every build, but this is the most common).
System.IO.Path.GetFullPath(#"..\..\")
Of course you would want to contain this inside some sort of validation/error handling logic.
If you want ot know what is the directory where your solution is located, you need to do this:
var parent = Directory.GetParent(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory()).Parent;
if (parent != null)
{
var directoryInfo = parent.Parent;
string startDirectory = null;
if (directoryInfo != null)
{
startDirectory = directoryInfo.FullName;
}
if (startDirectory != null)
{ /*Do whatever you want "startDirectory" variable*/}
}
If you let only with GetCurrrentDirectory() method, you get the build folder no matter if you are debugging or releasing. I hope this help! If you forget about validations it would be like this:
var startDirectory = Directory.GetParent(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory()).Parent.Parent.FullName;
Based on Gucu112's answer, but for .NET Core Console/Window application, it should be:
string projectDir =
Path.GetFullPath(Path.Combine(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory, #"..\..\.."));
I'm using this in a xUnit project for a .NET Core Window Application.
If you really want to ensure you get the source project directory, no matter what the bin output path is set to:
Add a pre-build event command line (Visual Studio: Project properties -> Build Events):
echo $(MSBuildProjectDirectory) > $(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\Resources\ProjectDirectory.txt
Add the ProjectDirectory.txt file to the Resources.resx of the project (If it doesn't exist yet, right click project -> Add new item -> Resources file)
Access from code with Resources.ProjectDirectory.
This solution works well for me, on Develop and also on TEST and PROD servers with ASP.NET MVC5 via C#:
var projectDir = Path.GetDirectoryName(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory);
If you need project directory in project configuration file use:
$(ProjectDir)
I was looking for this too. I've got a project that runs HWC, and I'd like to keep the web site out of the app tree, but I don't want to keep it in the debug (or release) directory. FWIW, the accepted solution (and this one as well) only identifies the directory the executable is running in.
To find that directory, I've been using
string startupPath = System.IO.Path.GetFullPath(".\\").
using System;
using System.IO;
// Get the current directory and make it a DirectoryInfo object.
// Do not use Environment.CurrentDirectory, vistual studio
// and visual studio code will return different result:
// Visual studio will return #"projectDir\bin\Release\netcoreapp2.0\", yet
// vs code will return #"projectDir\"
var currentDirectory = new DirectoryInfo(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory);
// On windows, the current directory is the compiled binary sits,
// so string like #"bin\Release\netcoreapp2.0\" will follow the project directory.
// Hense, the project directory is the great grand-father of the current directory.
string projectDirectory = currentDirectory.Parent.Parent.Parent.FullName;
I had a similar situation, and after fruitless Googles, I declared a public string, which mods a string value of the debug / release path to get the project path. A benefit of using this method is that since it uses the currect project's directory, it matters not if you are working from a debug directory or a release directory:
public string DirProject()
{
string DirDebug = System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory();
string DirProject = DirDebug;
for (int counter_slash = 0; counter_slash < 4; counter_slash++)
{
DirProject = DirProject.Substring(0, DirProject.LastIndexOf(#"\"));
}
return DirProject;
}
You would then be able to call it whenever you want, using only one line:
string MyProjectDir = DirProject();
This should work in most cases.
Another way to do this
string startupPath = System.IO.Directory.GetParent(#"./").FullName;
If you want to get path to bin folder
string startupPath = System.IO.Directory.GetParent(#"../").FullName;
Maybe there are better way =)
Yet another imperfect solution (but perhaps a little closer to perfect than some of the others):
protected static string GetSolutionFSPath() {
return System.IO.Directory.GetParent(System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory()).Parent.Parent.FullName;
}
protected static string GetProjectFSPath() {
return String.Format("{0}\\{1}", GetSolutionFSPath(), System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Name);
}
This version will return the current projects' folder even if the current project is not the Startup Project for the solution.
The first flaw with this is that I've skipped all error checking. That can be fixed easy enough but should only be a problem if you're storing your project in the root directory for the drive or using a junction in your path (and that junction is a descendant of the solution folder) so this scenario is unlikely. I'm not entirely sure that Visual Studio could handle either of these setups anyway.
Another (more likely) problem that you may run into is that the project name must match the folder name for the project for it to be found.
Another problem you may have is that the project must be inside the solution folder. This usually isn't a problem but if you've used the Add Existing Project to Solution option to add the project to the solution then this may not be the way your solution is organized.
Lastly, if you're application will be modifying the working directory, you should store this value before you do that because this value is determined relative to the current working directory.
Of course, this all also means that you must not alter the default values for your projects' Build->Output path or Debug->Working directory options in the project properties dialog.
Try this, its simple
HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/FolderName/");
string projPath = Path.GetFullPath(#"..\..\..\");
Console.WriteLine(projPath);
This consistently works well for me. Give it a go.
After I had finally finished polishing my first answer regarding the us of public strings to derive an answer, it dawned on me that you could probably read a value from the registry to get your desired result. As it turns out, that route was even shorter:
First, you must include the Microsoft.Win32 namespace so you can work with the registry:
using Microsoft.Win32; // required for reading and / or writing the registry
Here is the main code:
RegistryKey Projects_Key = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey(#"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0", false);
string DirProject = (string)Projects_Key.GetValue(#"DefaultNewProjectLocation");
A note on this answer:
I am using Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition. If you are using another version, (i.e. 2003, 2005, 2010; etc.), then you mayt have to modify the 'version' part of the SubKey string (i.e. 8.0, 7.0; etc.).
If you use one of my answers, and if it is not too much to ask, then I would like to know which of my methods you used and why. Good luck.

Use this to get the Project directory (worked for me):
string projectPath =
Directory.GetParent(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory()).Parent.FullName;
I have used following solution to get the job done:
string projectDir =
Path.GetFullPath(Path.Combine(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory, #"..\.."));
Try:
var pathRegex = new Regex(#"\\bin(\\x86|\\x64)?\\(Debug|Release)$", RegexOptions.Compiled);
var directory = pathRegex.Replace(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), String.Empty);
This is solution different from the others does also take into account possible x86 or x64 build.
(Because 22 answers are not enough... here's one more....)
Mike Nakis posted a great answer, to which I added a few enhancements. This is just a slightly spiffed up version of his very nice code.
As Mike pointed out, this class file must be in the root of the project.
I did not run into any problems with the below, but perhaps there are nuances I'm not aware of. YMMV.
using System.IO;
using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;
namespace Whatever
{
internal static class ProjectPathInfo
{
public static string CSharpClassFileName = nameof(ProjectPathInfo) + ".cs";
public static string CSharpClassPath;
public static string ProjectPath;
public static string SolutionPath;
static ProjectPathInfo() {
CSharpClassPath = GetSourceFilePathName();
ProjectPath = Directory.GetParent(CSharpClassPath)!.FullName;
SolutionPath = Directory.GetParent(ProjectPath)!.FullName;
}
private static string GetSourceFilePathName( [CallerFilePath] string? callerFilePath = null ) => callerFilePath ?? "";
}
}
Ok, 2021, a bit late to the party... but very annoyed by all possibilities I found in many projects:
bin/Debug
bin/x86/Debug
bin/Debug/net5.0-windows
...
Come on... I just need a one-liner (or almost) to address some files in test units; I need to use it on all past, current, (maybe future) projects.
So, if the project name is the same of relative folder which it lies in:
use the assembly name to pick project root folder name;
go back until that name is found.
Code sample:
string appName = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Name;
var dir = new DirectoryInfo(Environment.CurrentDirectory);
while (dir.Name != appName) {
dir = Directory.GetParent(dir.FullName);
}
return dir.FullName;
The best solution
string PjFolder1 =
Directory.GetParent(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory).
Parent.Parent.FullName;
Other solution
string pjFolder2 = Path.GetDirectoryName(Path.GetDirectoryName(Path.GetDirectoryName(
System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase)));
Test it, AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory worked for me on past project, now I get debug folder .... the selected GOOD answer just NOT WORK!.
//Project DEBUG folder, but STILL PROJECT FOLDER
string pjDebugFolder = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory;
//Visual studio folder, NOT PROJECT FOLDER
//This solutions just not work
string vsFolder = Directory.GetCurrentDirectory();
string vsFolder2 = Environment.CurrentDirectory;
string vsFolder3 = Path.GetFullPath(".\\");
//Current PROJECT FOLDER
string ProjectFolder =
//Get Debug Folder object from BaseDirectory ( the same with end slash)
Directory.GetParent(pjDebugFolder).
Parent.//Bin Folder object
Parent. //Project Folder object
FullName;//Project Folder complete path
This works on VS2017 w/ SDK Core MSBuild configurations.
