I use Interop to SaveAs(D:/Temp) a template excel sheet after the changes are made.
Then I use FileStream to send the user a Pop-up to save this file. But that file in D:\Temp still exists.
Is there a way to delete this file on Pop-up response?
//Save the Excel File
SaveExcelFile(exportPath, sourceFile, excelWorkBook,
excelApllication, excelWorkSheet);
#region Pop Up and File Open
if (System.IO.File.Exists(sourceFile))
{
FileStream fsSource =
new FileStream(sourceFile, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
return File(fsSource, "application/vnd.ms-excel", "FileName" + .xls");
}
else
{
return View();
}
#endregion
To delete one file
string filePath)= #"C:\MyDir\filename.txt";
public bool RemoveFile(string filePath)
{
try
{
if (File.Exists(filePath))
{
File.Delete(filePath);
return true;
}
else
return true;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
return false;
}
}
Delete all files
string[] filePaths = Directory.GetFiles(#"c:\MyDir\");
foreach (string filePath in filePaths)
File.Delete(filePath);
To delete all files using one code line
Array.ForEach(Directory.GetFiles(#"c:\MyDir\"),
delegate(string path) { File.Delete(path); });
You can use File.Delete method.
if (File.Exists("File_Path"))
{
File.Delete("File_Path");
}

For downloading binary files,
using (FileStream fs = File.OpenRead(path))
{
int length = (int)fs.Length;
byte[] buffer;
using (BinaryReader br = new BinaryReader(fs))
{
buffer = br.ReadBytes(length);
}
Response.Clear();
Response.Buffer = true;
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", String.Format("attachment;filename={0}", Path.GetFileName(path)));
Response.ContentType = "application/" + Path.GetExtension(path).Substring(1);
Response.BinaryWrite(buffer);
Response.Flush();
Response.End();
}

Instead of creating a temp file, loading it to stream, and then trying to delete it, I suggest that you create the file directly in memory stream (i.e. System.IO.MemoryStream) in the first place, so you don't have to load it and delete it.
If you cannot create it directly in memory stream, the main issue is that you cannot delete the temp file while you're using it in the FileStream. In this case, you copy the FileStream to a MemoryStream, close and dispose the FileStream, delete the temp file, and then return the MemoryStream to the user.
You can use the function bellow to copy streams correctly.
// Author: Racil Hilan.
/// <summary>Copies data from a source stream to a target stream.</summary>
private static void CopyStream(Stream SourceStream, Stream TargetStream) {
const int BUFFER_SIZE = 4096;
byte[] buffer = new byte[BUFFER_SIZE];
//Reset the source stream in order to process all data.
if (SourceStream.CanSeek)
SourceStream.Position = 0;
//Copy data from the source stream to the target stream.
int BytesRead = 0;
while ((BytesRead = SourceStream.Read(buffer, 0, BUFFER_SIZE)) > 0)
TargetStream.Write(buffer, 0, BytesRead);
//Reset the source stream and the target stream to make them ready for any other operation.
if (SourceStream.CanSeek)
SourceStream.Position = 0;
if (TargetStream.CanSeek)
TargetStream.Position = 0;
}
You can use File.Delete() for this. Just make sure you've closed the stream before you try to delete the file, and preferably, that you have been able to send whatever you need to.
I'm guessing you don't want to delete the file if the main operation fails.

I have a path which has a list of files.
foreach (var file in Directory.GetFiles(networkpath))
{
Stream s=file.
}
I want to convert the file into Stream.How to proceed further?
Is this what you need?
foreach (var file in Directory.GetFiles(networkpath))
{
using (FileStream fs = File.Open(file, FileMode.Open))
{
}
}
You can safely read file using FileStream in C#. To be sure the whole file is correctly read, you should call FileStream.Read method in a loop, even if in the most cases the whole file is read in a single call of FileStream.Read method.
First create FileStream to open a file for reading. Then call FileStream.Read in a loop until the whole file is read. Finally close the stream.
using System.IO;
public static byte[] ReadFile(string filePath)
{
byte[] buffer;
FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(filePath, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
try
{
int length = (int)fileStream.Length; // get file length
buffer = new byte[length]; // create buffer
int count; // actual number of bytes read
int sum = 0; // total number of bytes read
// read until Read method returns 0 (end of the stream has been reached)
while ((count = fileStream.Read(buffer, sum, length - sum)) > 0)
sum += count; // sum is a buffer offset for next reading
}
finally
{
fileStream.Close();
}
return buffer;
}
Change your file path to suit your code!Add this inside your loop!
FileStream fStream = new FileStream(#"c:\file.txt", FileMode.Open);
try
{
// read from file or write to file
}
finally
{
fStream.Close();
}
I am trying to load a .gz file out of a bucket.
Connection and authentication work finde, I even do get a file, but the problem is, the file is a lot bigger then the file should be. it is, original size, 155MB within the bucket but when it comes onto my hard disk it gets up to about 288MB
here is the function code:
public bool SaveBucketToFile(string Filename)
{
//Response check into file
using (StreamReader StRead = new StreamReader(_ObjResponse.ResponseStream))
{
string TempFile = Path.GetTempFileName();
StreamWriter StWrite = new StreamWriter(TempFile, false);
StWrite.Write(StRead.ReadToEnd());
StWrite.Close();
StRead.Close();
// Move to real destination
if (File.Exists(Filename))
{
File.Delete(Filename);
}
File.Move(TempFile, Filename);
}
return true;
}
the download and filling of _ObjResponse is made over usage of the AmazonS3 Client from their SDK. I am using a proxy but the same code on a different machine without proxy brings back the same result.
Any hints what to do here? the object request is simple:
_ObjRequest = new GetObjectRequest
{
BucketName = BucketName,
Key = Key
};
glad for any help...
for everyone to stumble upon this.
I needed to first save the stream via bufferedStream into a memorystream.
the code looks like this:
MemoryStream MemStream = new MemoryStream();
BufferedStream Stream2 = new BufferedStream(_ObjResponse.ResponseStream);
byte[] Buffer = new byte[0x2000];
int Count;
while ((Count = Stream2.Read(Buffer, 0, Buffer.Length)) > 0)
{
MemStream.Write(Buffer, 0, Count);
}
// Pfad auslesen
string TempFile = Path.GetTempFileName();
//Stream zum Tempfile öffnen
FileStream Newfile = new FileStream(TempFile,FileMode.Create);
//Stream wieder auf Position 0 ziehen
MemStream.Position = 0;
// in Tempdatei speichern
MemStream.CopyTo(Newfile);
Newfile.Close();
// Endgültigen Speicherpunkt prüfen und Tempdatei dorthin schieben
if (File.Exists(Filename))
{
File.Delete(Filename);
}
File.Move(TempFile, Filename);
I found this somewhere here:

I am trying to download a file to any location on my computer, but it is sending it right to my downloads folder when I click the button. The code I am using is below:
I want to be able to chose "Desktop, My Documents, ETC". What am I doing wrong?

// The filename used to save the file to the client's system..
string filename = Path.GetFileName( filepath );
Stream stream = null;
try
{
// Open the file into a stream.
stream = new FileStream(filepath, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read );
// Total bytes to read:
long bytesToRead = stream.Length;
Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream";
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + filename );
// Read the bytes from the stream in small portions.
while ( bytesToRead > 0 )
{
// Make sure the client is still connected.
if (Response.IsClientConnected)
{
// Read the data into the buffer and write into the
// output stream.
byte[] buffer = new Byte[10000];
int length = stream.Read(buffer, 0, 10000);
Response.OutputStream.Write(buffer, 0, length);
Response.Flush();
// We have already read some bytes.. need to read
// only the remaining.
bytesToRead = bytesToRead - length;
}
else
{
// Get out of the loop, if user is not connected anymore..
bytesToRead = -1;
}
}
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
Response.Write(ex.Message);
// An error occurred..
}
finally
{
if ( stream != null ) {
stream.Close();
}

This have to do with your browser settings - What browser do you use ? What ever, go to the settings of your browser, locate the download options, and tell them to ask you where to save it first.
For google chrome: Change download locations
For Firefox: Change what Firefox does when you click on or download a file
I have been working on this application that enables user to log in into another website, and then download specified file from that server. So far I have succeeded in logging on the website and download the file. But everything ruins when it comes to zip files.
Is there any chunk of code that could be helpful in reading the .zip files byte by byte or by using stream reader?
I m using downloadfile() but its not returning the correct zip file.
I need a method by which I can read zip files. Can I do it by using ByteReader()
The code used to download zip file is
string filename = "13572_BranchInformationReport_2012-05-22.zip";
string filepath = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\user\\Desktop\\" + filename.ToString();
WebClient client = new WebClient();
string user = "abcd", pass = "password";
client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(user, pass);
client.Encoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
try
{
client.DownloadFile("https://web.site/archive/13572_BranchInformationReport_2012-05-22.zip", filepath);
Response.Write("Success");
}
catch (Exception ue)
{
Response.Write(ue.Message);
}
Thanks in advance.
is there any chunk of code that could be helpful in reading the zip files bytes by bytes aur by using stream reader.
Absolutely not. StreamReader - and indeed any TextReader is for reading text content, not binary content. A zip file is not text - it's composed of bytes, not characters.
If you're reading binary content such as zip files, you should be using a Stream rather than a TextReader of any kind.
Note that WebClient.DownloadFile and WebClient.DownloadData can generally make things easier for downloading binary content.
Another simple way to downlaod zip file
<asp:HyperLink ID="HyperLink1" runat="server" NavigateUrl="~/DOWNLOAD/Filename.zip">Click To Download</asp:HyperLink>
Another solution
private void DownloadFile()
{
string getPath = "DOWNLOAD/FileName.zip";
System.IO.Stream iStream = null;
byte[] buffer = new Byte[1024];
// Length of the file:
int length;
// Total bytes to read:
long dataToRead;
// Identify the file to download including its path.
string filepath = Server.MapPath(getPath);
// Identify the file name.
string filename = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(filepath);
try
{
// Open the file.
iStream = new System.IO.FileStream(filepath, System.IO.FileMode.Open,
System.IO.FileAccess.Read, System.IO.FileShare.Read);
// Total bytes to read:
dataToRead = iStream.Length;
// Page.Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.android.package-archive";
// Page.Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream";
Page.Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + filename);
// Read the bytes.
while (dataToRead > 0)
{
// Verify that the client is connected.
if (Response.IsClientConnected)
{
// Read the data in buffer.
length = iStream.Read(buffer, 0, 1024);
// Write the data to the current output stream.
Page.Response.OutputStream.Write(buffer, 0, length);
// Flush the data to the HTML output.
Page.Response.Flush();
// buffer = new Byte[1024];
dataToRead = dataToRead - length;
}
else
{
//prevent infinite loop if user disconnects
dataToRead = -1;
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
// Trap the error, if any.
Page.Response.Write(ex.Message);
}
finally
{
if (iStream != null)
{
//Close the file.
iStream.Close();
Page.Response.Close();
}
}
}
Your answer
WebRequest objRequest = System.Net.HttpWebRequest.Create(url);
objResponse = objRequest.GetResponse();
byte[] buffer = new byte[32768];
using (Stream input = objResponse.GetResponseStream())
{
using (FileStream output = new FileStream ("test.doc",
FileMode.CreateNew))
{
int bytesRead;
while ( (bytesRead=input.Read (buffer, 0, buffer.Length)) > 0)
{
output.Write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
}
}
}
This is how i achieved it. Thanks everyone for ur help
The file is created and the size seems to be ok, but when I double click it is says its format is wrong or the file is damaged.
This is the code I'm using
public MemoryStream CompressFiles(Dictionary<string, MemoryStream> filesToBeCompressed)
{
var output = new MemoryStream();
using (var zip = new ZipFile())
{
foreach (var entry in filesToBeCompressed)
{
entry.Value.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin); // <-- must do this after writing the stream (I've read this in a blog
zip.AddEntry(entry.Key.Substring(entry.Key.LastIndexOf('/') + 1, entry.Key.Length - entry.Key.LastIndexOf('/') - 1), entry.Value);
zip.Save(output);
}
}
return output;
}
Then in the calling method
SaveStreamToFile(documentCompressedName,getDocument());
getDocument() calls Compress internally
And that method finally
private static void SaveStreamToFile(string fileFullPath, Stream stream)
{
if (stream.Length == 0) return;
// Create a FileStream object to write a stream to a file
using (FileStream fileStream = System.IO.File.Create(fileFullPath, (int)stream.Length))
{
// Fill the bytes[] array with the stream data
var bytesInStream = new byte[stream.Length];
stream.Read(bytesInStream, 0, (int)bytesInStream.Length);
// Use FileStream object to write to the specified file
fileStream.Write(bytesInStream, 0, bytesInStream.Length);
}
}
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance! Guillermo.
I think the problem is in your function SaveStreamToFile. You have to set the position of the stream to the beginning before you write the archive to disk:
private static void SaveStreamToFile(string fileFullPath, Stream stream)
{
if (stream.Length == 0) return;
// Set the position within the stream to the beginning of the stream
stream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
// Create a FileStream object to write a stream to a file
using (FileStream fileStream = System.IO.File.Create(fileFullPath, (int)stream.Length))
{
// Fill the bytes[] array with the stream data
var bytesInStream = new byte[stream.Length];
stream.Read(bytesInStream, 0, (int)bytesInStream.Length);
// Use FileStream object to write to the specified file
fileStream.Write(bytesInStream, 0, bytesInStream.Length);
}
}
Hope, this helps.
From your code snippets, my guess here is that the MemoryStream's Position is at the end of the stream when you pass it to SaveStreamToFile, and as you never set the position back to the start of the stream, your stream.Read is actually reading no bytes at all. If you open your output zip file with a hex editor, you'll probably see that it's full of zeros.
You have a number of options here, but my suggestion would be to try:
private static void SaveStreamToFile(string fileFullPath, Stream stream)
{
if (stream.Length == 0) return;
// Create a FileStream object to write a stream to a file
using (FileStream fileStream = System.IO.File.Create(fileFullPath, (int)stream.Length))
{
// Use FileStream object to write to the specified file
fileStream.Write(stream.GetBuffer(), 0, stream.Length);
}
}
This approach avoids taking a copy of the internal memory buffer of the MemoryStream. Whilst I don't know how large your zip files are so it may not be an issue in terms of memory use, but storing the zip file in memory twice - once in the MemoryStream, and again in your original bytesInStream array seems unnecessary.
