I have array list contains bytes , I want to check if the first byte start with 99 and end with 0d this means i have received a complete message but message length may be either 6 or 30 so if i received message start with 99 and it's terminal is 0d with message length 6 I will do operation and if length of message is 30 I will do another operation.
How I can check like this.

You have an ArrayList of byte? ArrayList has a Count property ( from documentation: Gets the number of elements actually contained in the ArrayList.)
Whas that it?
|
|
|
|

You really shouldn't have to ask such a simple question. When you read a 99 put it and any following bytes into the List (don't use ArrayList) and when you find a 0d, check the Count. Take the appropriate action then clear the List.

Hello,
Thanks for the nice link it was very useful.
Still confusing how to understand the code but having a guide
on what to do is a bit more easier 
Thanks,
DAN

Hey there,
I'm working on an NTFS Master File Table reader as part of a project for University. I've already got a Console API working in C++ which reads the current $MFT file/table, and i've begun work on porting the code over to C# (as per my requirements), however my version of SetFilePointerEx doesn't seem to move the file buffer pointer.
My C++ code:
BOOL __stdcall SetFileBlockLocation(HANDLE address, LARGE_INTEGER position)
{
return SetFilePointerEx(address, position, NULL, FILE_BEGIN);
}
My C# code:
public bool AssignPointerPosition(Int64 position, EFileMove movement)
{
if (this.IsBufferReady == false)
return false;
if (Win32API.SetFilePointerEx(this.block, (long)position, IntPtr.Zero, movement) == false)
{
this.errorcode = Marshal.GetLastWin32Error();
this.errorpos = MFTHaltPosition.MoveFile;
return false;
}
return true;
}
Where EFileMove is set to EFileMove.FileBegin (aka. 0)
When I run another ReadFile, it continues to read out the same block of data into the buffer (the first four bytes should be FILE, but instead reads the beginning of the NTFS block).
Does anyone have an idea why it wouldn't move the pointer forward (position is a value far above 0), and is there a solution?
Thank you,
Chris

What does your import/p-invoke look like for SetFilePointerEx? What is this.block defined as?
|
|
|
|
|
My SetFilePointerEx import looks like this:
[DllImport("kernel32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
public static extern bool SetFilePointerEx(IntPtr fHandle, long lDistance, IntPtr lpNewPointer, EFileMove dwMove);
And the block attribute is an IntPtr:
private IntPtr block;
Which stores the file pointer created by CreateFile, and is used to read the data.
|
|
|
|
|
Is SetFilePointerEx returning 0? If so, what is GetLastError reporting?
I would recommend using SafeFileHandle instead of IntPtr for the file handle.
I assume you are doing a verbatum translation of your C++ code to C#, so that you know the actual sequence of calls you are performing are valid.
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, my EFileMove structure is inheriting uint.
When I get chance, i'll try converting the code to use SafeFileHandle.
When I run SetFilePointerEx and sending 0 as the distance to move, and setting the file movement to EFileMove.FileEnd, the resulting long value is always 0. It doesn't seem to adjust the pointer at all.
I'm wondering if I should try passing a LARGE_INTEGER structure through it instead?

if SetFilePointerEx is returning false, then you should look at the error code.
<br />
if (!SetFilePointerEx(...)) {<br />
throw new Win32Exception(Marshal.GetLastWin32Error());<br />
}<br />

It's not returning false, but the long output for the 3rd argument (if I change the argument type to ref long) returns 0 (which documented by MSDN, would return the position of the pointer, thus the pointer hasn't changed).
|
|
|
|
|
The third argument is actually 64 bit unsigned, so strictly speaking long is not the correct cast.

Edit
Nevermind. Seems passing Threading.NativeOverlapped to ReadFile was causing issues with the buffer. And I also changed all IntPtr to SafeFileHandle, and it's working now. Thanks!

It makes no difference if I convert all the Int64 types long, it still doesn't adjust the pointer and my SetFilePointerEx(this.block, 0, out pos, EFileMove.FileEnd); still assigns 0 to the pos variable (and the buffer is not changed).

Not that it should make any difference, so far as I can tell, but just in case it triggers something in your brain cell.
Is the type of your EFileMove set to uint?
enum EFileMove : uint
{
FileBegin = 0,
.................
.................
{
The documentation I have read says the dwMoveNethod should be a uint.

the boundary between managed and unmanaged code does not care about the exact numeric type, all it needs is the right amount of bits. Signed and unsigned are irrelevant at run-time, as it used to be in purely native code.
