Delete file which cannot delete because is used by another process

I know you are going to tell me that this question is stupid but I really cannot find a solution to delete my file.
In fact, I open a connection to an .add file (same style as SQL in a way) but afterwards I cannot delete it because it is used by another process which is the process of my application.
While doing some research on the internet I was able to find the solution to kill the process however if I do this it stops my application. Then I also found the GC collect but it doesn't work : /
There is my code :
try
{
string idClient = "parfilux";
string tableName = "ACT,ACF";
string dataSourceDBF = "C:/winbooks/data/parfilux";
string path = dataSourceDBF ;
string pathTemp = dataSourceDBF + "/CopyTempWebService/";
if (!Directory.Exists(pathTemp)) Directory.CreateDirectory(pathTemp);
string addFile = path + "/" + idClient + ".add";
File.Copy(addFile, pathTemp + idClient.ToUpper() + ".add");
File.Copy(addFile.Replace(".add", ".ai"), pathTemp + "/" + idClient.ToUpper() + ".ai");
File.Copy(addFile.Replace(".add", ".am"), pathTemp + "/" + idClient.ToUpper() + ".am");
tableName = tableName.Replace(" ", "");
string[] tables = tableName.Split(',');
string pathTable = null;
foreach (string tab in tables)
{
pathTable = path + "/" + idClient.ToUpper() + "_" + tab.ToUpper() + ".dbf";
File.Copy(pathTable, pathTemp + idClient.ToUpper() + "_" + tab.ToUpper() + ".dbf");
File.Copy(pathTable.Replace(".dbf", ".cdx"), pathTemp + idClient.ToUpper() + "_" + tab.ToUpper() + ".cdx");
}
AdsConnection dbfCo;
//dbfCo.Close();
dbfCo = new AdsConnection(#"data Source=" + dataSourceDBF + "/CopyTempWebService/" + idClient + ".add;User ID=admin;Password=;ServerType=Local;ReadOnly=true;pooling=true;TrimTrailingSpaces=true;ShowDeleted=TRUE;TableType=CDX;LockMode=COMPATIBLE");
dbfCo.Open();
//QueryDataDBF(tableName, idClient, false);
dbfCo.Close();
dbfCo.Dispose();
//Process process = Process.GetCurrentProcess();
//Console.WriteLine(process.MainModule);
//process.Kill();
//foreach(Process pro in process)
//{
// Console.WriteLine(pro);
// if(pro.ProcessName == pathTemp + idClient.ToUpper() + ".add")
// {
// pro.Kill();
// }
//}
//System.GC.Collect();
//System.GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers();
//File.Delete(pathTemp + idClient.ToUpper() + ".add");
Directory.Delete(dataSourceDBF + "/CopyTempWebService", true);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}
I open a connection to my .add with the Advantage Data Provider library.
Do you have any idea to fix this problem ? thank you in advance ;)

Yahoo Weather API by Lat and Lon

I'm writing a weather app in Xamarin.Form. I am using the Yahoo API. I have no problem getting the weather by the city name parameter. However, when I change the code to use longitude and latitude, the weather does not appear.
To download the weather I use the example from the page: https://developer.yahoo.com/weather/documentation.html#oauth-csharp
I processed it in the following way:
lSign = string.Format(
"format={0}&" +
"lat={1}&" +
"lon={2}&" +
"oauth_consumer_key={3}&" +
"oauth_nonce={4}&" +
"oauth_signature_method={5}&" +
"oauth_timestamp={6}&" +
"oauth_version={7}&" +
"u={8}",
cFormat,
szerokosc,
dlugosc,
cConsumerKey,
lNonce,
cOAuthSignMethod,
lTimes,
cOAuthVersion,
jednostka.ToString().ToLower()
(...)
url = cURL + "?lat=" + szerokosc + "&lon=" + dlugosc + "&u=" + jednostka.ToString().ToLower() + "&format=" + cFormat;

According to the documentation, lSign is used for authentication. It should not be changed, remove these "lat={1}&" + "lon={2}&" from that strings.
It says Please don't simply change value of any parameter without
re-sorting.
The location information should be involved in the request url and the authorization information is added in the header.
// Add Authorization
lClt.Headers.Add ( "Authorization", _get_auth () );
// The request URL
lURL = cURL + "?" + "lat=" + szerokosc + "&lon=" + dlugosc + "&format=" + cFormat;

Unfortunately, the simple removal of " lat = {1} & " + " lon = {2} & " from variable lSign does not solve the problem.
For example, to get weather data by the city name I use:
lSign = string.Format(
"format={0}&" +
"location={1}&" +
"oauth_consumer_key={2}&" +
"oauth_nonce={3}&" +
"oauth_signature_method={4}&" +
"oauth_timestamp={5}&" +
"oauth_version={6}&" +
"u={7}",
cFormat,
miasto,
cConsumerKey,
lNonce,
cOAuthSignMethod,
lTimes,
cOAuthVersion,
jednostka.ToString().ToLower()
and
url = cURL + "?location=" + Uri.EscapeDataString(miasto) + "&u=" + jednostka.ToString().ToLower() + "&format=" + cFormat;
and
string headerString = _get_auth();
WebClient webClient = new WebClient();
webClient.Headers[HttpRequestHeader.ContentType] = "application/" + cFormat;
webClient.Headers[HttpRequestHeader.Authorization] = headerString;
webClient.Headers.Add("X-Yahoo-App-Id", cAppID);
byte[] reponse = webClient.DownloadData(url);
string lOut = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(reponse);

How to convert a HTML File to PDF using WkHTMLToSharp / wkhtmltopdf with Images in C#

I am generating HTML files on the fly, and I would like to create a PDF from the final file. I am using the following to generate the HTML file:
public static void WriteHTML(string cFile, List<Movie> mList)
{
int lineID = 0;
string strHeader, strMovie, strGenre, tmpGenre = null;
string strPDF = null;
// initiates streamwriter for catalog output file
FileStream fs = new FileStream(cFile, FileMode.Create);
StreamWriter catalog = new StreamWriter(fs);
strHeader = "<style type=\"text/css\">\r\n" + "<!--\r\n" + "tr#odd {\r\n" + " background-color:#e2e2e2;\r\n" + " vertical-align:top;\r\n" + "}\r\n" + "\r\n" + "tr#even {\r\n" + " vertical-align:top;\r\n" + "}\r\n" + "div#title {\r\n" + " font-size:16px;\r\n" + " font-weight:bold;\r\n" + "}\r\n" + "\r\n" + "div#mpaa {\r\n" + " font-size:10px;\r\n" + "}\r\n" + "\r\n" + "div#genre {\r\n" + " font-size:12px;\r\n" + " font-style:italic;\r\n" + "}\r\n" + "\r\n" + "div#plot {\r\n" + " height: 63px;\r\n" + " font-size:12px;\r\n" + " overflow:hidden;\r\n" + "}\r\n" + "-->\r\n" + "</style>\r\n" + "\r\n" + "<html>\r\n" + " <body>\r\n" + " <table>\r\n";
catalog.WriteLine(strHeader);
strPDF = strHeader;
foreach (Movie m in mList)
{
tmpGenre = null;
strMovie = lineID == 0 ? " <tr id=\"odd\" style=\"page-break-inside:avoid\">\r\n" : " <tr id=\"even\" style=\"page-break-inside:avoid\">\r\n";
catalog.WriteLine(strMovie);
strPDF += strMovie;
foreach (string genre in m.Genres)
tmpGenre += ", " + genre + "";
strGenre = tmpGenre != null ? tmpGenre.Substring(2) : null;
strMovie = " <td>\r\n" + " <img src=\".\\images\\" + m.ImageFile + "\" width=\"75\" height=\"110\">\r\n" + " </td>\r\n" + " <td>\r\n" + " <div id=\"title\">" + m.Title + "</div>\r\n" + " <div id=\"mpaa\">" + m.Certification + " " + m.MPAA + "</div>\r\n" + " <div id=\"genre\">" + strGenre + "</div>\r\n" + " <div id=\"plot\">" + m.Plot + "</div>\r\n" + " </td>\r\n" + " </tr>\r\n";
catalog.WriteLine(strMovie);
strPDF += strMovie;
lineID = lineID == 0 ? 1 : 0;
}
string closingHTML = " </table>\r\n" + " </body>\r\n" + "</html>";
catalog.WriteLine(closingHTML);
strPDF += closingHTML;
WritePDF(strPDF, cFile + ".PDF");
catalog.Close();
}
Once completed, I want to call the following function to generate the PDF file:
public static void WritePDF(string cFile, string pdfFile)
{
WkHtmlToPdfConverter w = new WkHtmlToPdfConverter();
byte[] strHTML = w.Convert(cFile);
File.WriteAllBytes(pdfFile, strHTML);
w.Dispose();
}
I've discovered that the .Convert function will convert HTML code to PDF, not a file. Secondly, when I pass in the HTML code directly, the images are not appearing in the PDF. I know there is an issue with .GIF files, but these are all .JPG files.
I've read a lot about how good wkhtmltopdf is, and the guy who wrote WkHTMLToSharp posted his project all over SO, but I've been disappointed by the lack of documentation for it.
I WANT to be able to pass in a file to convert, change the margins (I know this is possible, I just need to figure out the correct settings), have it convert images correctly, and most importantly, to not break up my items across multiple pages (support "page-break-inside:avoid" or something similar).
I'd love to see how others are using this!

I have coded an example about how to create a PDF from HTML. I just updated it to also print images.
https://github.com/hmadrigal/playground-dotnet/tree/master/MsDotNet.PdfGeneration
(In my blog post I explain most of the project https://hmadrigal.wordpress.com/2015/10/16/creating-pdf-reports-from-html-using-dotliquid-markup-for-templates-and-wkhtmltoxsharp-for-printing-pdf/ )
Pretty much you have two options:
1: Using file:// and the fullpath to the file.
<img alt="profile" src="{{ employee.PorfileFileName | Prepend: "Assets\ProfileImage\" | ToLocalPath }}" />
2: Using URL Data (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_URI_scheme)
<img alt="profile" src="data:image/png;base64,{{ employee.PorfileFileName | Prepend: "Assets\ProfileImage\" | ToLocalPath | ToBase64 }}" />

Use WkHtmlToXSharp.
Download the latest DLL from Github
public static string ConvertHTMLtoPDF(string htmlFullPath, string pageSize, string orientation)
{
string pdfUrl = htmlFullPath.Replace(".html", ".pdf");
try
{
#region USING WkHtmlToXSharp.dll
//IHtmlToPdfConverter converter = new WkHtmlToPdfConverter();
IHtmlToPdfConverter converter = new MultiplexingConverter();
converter.GlobalSettings.Margin.Top = "0cm";
converter.GlobalSettings.Margin.Bottom = "0cm";
converter.GlobalSettings.Margin.Left = "0cm";
converter.GlobalSettings.Margin.Right = "0cm";
converter.GlobalSettings.Orientation = (PdfOrientation)Enum.Parse(typeof(PdfOrientation), orientation);
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(pageSize))
converter.GlobalSettings.Size.PageSize = (PdfPageSize)Enum.Parse(typeof(PdfPageSize), pageSize);
converter.ObjectSettings.Page = htmlFullPath;
converter.ObjectSettings.Web.EnablePlugins = true;
converter.ObjectSettings.Web.EnableJavascript = true;
converter.ObjectSettings.Web.Background = true;
converter.ObjectSettings.Web.LoadImages = true;
converter.ObjectSettings.Load.LoadErrorHandling = LoadErrorHandlingType.ignore;
Byte[] bufferPDF = converter.Convert();
System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes(pdfUrl, bufferPDF);
converter.Dispose();
#endregion
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw new Exception(ex.Message, ex);
}
return pdfUrl;
}

You can use Spire.Pdf to do so.
This component could convert html to pdf.
PdfDocument pdfdoc = new PdfDocument();
pdfdoc.LoadFromHTML(fileFullName, true, true, true);
//String url = "http://www.e-iceblue.com/";
//pdfdoc.LoadFromHTML(url, false, true, true);
pdfdoc.SaveToFile("FromHTML.pdf");

We're also using wkhtmltopdf and are able to render images correctly. However, by default the rendering of images is disabled.
You have to specify those options on your converter instance:
var wk = _GetConverter()
wk.GlobalSettings.Margin.Top = "20mm";
wk.GlobalSettings.Margin.Bottom = "10mm";
wk.GlobalSettings.Margin.Left = "10mm";
wk.GlobalSettings.Margin.Right = "10mm";
wk.GlobalSettings.Size.PaperSize = PdfPaperSize.A4;
wk.ObjectSettings.Web.PrintMediaType = true;
wk.ObjectSettings.Web.LoadImages = true;
wk.ObjectSettings.Web.EnablePlugins = false;
wk.ObjectSettings.Web.EnableJavascript = true;
result = wk.Convert(htmlContent);

how to open vCard bydefault in outlook 2007/03?

I have generated the the vCard from asp.net + c# application. While ending up. browsers pops up for "open with /Save as" box. I don't want to appear this box. rather than that , I want to directly set the generated .vcf file to open with outlook 2007 or 03. what hae to do ?
My code is:
S
ystem.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter htmlWrite = new HtmlTextWriter(stringWrite);
//vCard Begin
stringWrite.WriteLine("BEGIN:VCARD");
stringWrite.WriteLine("VERSION:2.1");
//Name
stringWrite.WriteLine("N:" + nameLast + ";" + nameFirst +
";" + nameMiddle + ";" + nameTitle);
//Full Name
stringWrite.WriteLine("FN:" + nameFirst + " " +
nameMiddle + " " + nameLast);
//Organisation
stringWrite.WriteLine("ORG:" + company + ";" + department);
//URL
stringWrite.WriteLine("URL;WORK:" + uRL);
//Title
stringWrite.WriteLine("TITLE:" + title);
//Profession
stringWrite.WriteLine("ROLE:" + profession);
//Telephone
stringWrite.WriteLine("TEL;WORK;VOICE:" + telephone);
//Fax
stringWrite.WriteLine("TEL;WORK;FAX:" + fax);
//Mobile
stringWrite.WriteLine("TEL;CELL;VOICE:" + mobile);
//Email
stringWrite.WriteLine("EMAIL;PREF;INTERNET:" + email);
//Address
stringWrite.WriteLine("ADR;WORK;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:" + ";" +
office + ";" + addressTitle + "=0D" +
streetName + ";" + city + ";" +
region +
";" + postCode + ";" + country);
//Revision Date
//Not needed
//stringWrite.WriteLine("REV:" + DateTime.Today.Year.ToString() +
// DateTime.Today.Month.ToString() + DateTime.Today.Day.ToString() + "T" +
// DateTime.Now.Hour.ToString() + DateTime.Now.Minute.ToString() +
// DateTime.Now.Second.ToString() + "Z");
//vCard End
stringWrite.WriteLine("END:VCARD");
response.Write(stringWrite.ToString());
response.AppendHeader("Hi", "PMTS");
response.End();

If I'm understanding you correctly, the issue is that you're getting a run-or-download dialog when you mean for the vCard to simply open from the web.
Assuming that is actually what you're wanting, I believe you need only to set your response to one of the vCard MIME types (text/x-vcard, text/directory;profile=vCard, or text/directory).
Response.ContentType = "text/x-vcard";
I hope that helps.
- EDIT -
Using the following code, I am properly prompted to Open or Save (and Open opens the file in Outlook) in Internet Exploder. Unfortunately, Chrome still does not support opening files it seems, and so there is a download box somewhat permanently it seems. Try the following code out in IE and you'll see what I mean; it works. Also, on a side note - I would have been able to replicate your code somewhat easier if properly formatted. Any chance you can edit your post, highlight the code, and hit the "101010" icon? Thanks much, and good luck!
