Given two different revisions need to get the differences between them, I intend to use the method duvuelve Diff but I anything as a result, it could be? Thanks.
My code is as follows
using (SvnClient client = new SvnClient())
using (MemoryStream result = new MemoryStream())
{
client.Authentication.DefaultCredentials = new NetworkCredential("asdf", "asdf/*");
try
{
//SvnUriTarget is a wrapper class for SVN repository URIs
SvnUriTarget target = new SvnUriTarget(textBox1.Text);
if (client.Diff(target, rango, result))
MessageBox.Show("Successfully para" + rango.ToString() + ".");
StreamReader strReader = new StreamReader(result);
string str = strReader.ReadToEnd();
}
}
The stream that is returned from the Diff() function is positioned at the end of the stream, so before creating your stream reader, you need to reposition it at the beginning of the stream:
result.Position = 0;
StreamReader strReader = new StreamReader(result);

I have multiple copies of a .pdf document that are commented by different users. I would like to merge all these comments into a new pdf "merged".
I wrote this sub inside a class called document with properties "path" and "directory".
Public Sub MergeComments(ByVal pdfDocuments As String())
Dim oSavePath As String = Directory & "\" & FileName & "_Merged.pdf"
Dim oPDFdocument As New iText.Kernel.Pdf.PdfDocument(New PdfReader(Path),
New PdfWriter(New IO.FileStream(oSavePath, IO.FileMode.Create)))
For Each oFile As String In pdfDocuments
Dim oSecundairyPDFdocument As New iText.Kernel.Pdf.PdfDocument(New PdfReader(oFile))
Dim oAnnotations As New PDFannotations
For i As Integer = 1 To oSecundairyPDFdocument.GetNumberOfPages
Dim pdfPage As PdfPage = oSecundairyPDFdocument.GetPage(i)
For Each oAnnotation As Annot.PdfAnnotation In pdfPage.GetAnnotations()
oPDFdocument.GetPage(i).AddAnnotation(oAnnotation)
Next
Next
Next
oPDFdocument.Close()
End Sub
This code results in an exception that I am failing to solve.
iText.Kernel.PdfException: 'Pdf indirect object belongs to other PDF document. Copy object to current pdf document.'
What do I need to change in order to perform this task? Or am I completely off with my code block?
You need to explicitly copy the underlying PDF object to the destination document. After that you will be easily able to add that object to the list of page annotations.
Instead of adding the annotation directly:
oPDFdocument.GetPage(i).AddAnnotation(oAnnotation)
Copy the object to the destination document first, wrap it into PdfAnnotation class with makeAnnotation method and then add it as usual. Code is in Java but you will easily be able to convert it into VB:
PdfObject annotObject = oAnnotation.getPdfObject().copyTo(pdfDocument);
pdfDocument.getPage(i).addAnnotation(PdfAnnotation.makeAnnotation(annotObject));
Here is a working Java code, with annotations copied from one document to other using the copyTo method.
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(new
RandomAccessSourceFactory().createBestSource(sourceFileName), null);
PdfDocument document = new PdfDocument(reader);
PdfReader toMergeReader = new PdfReader(new RandomAccessSourceFactory().createBestSource(targetFileName), null);
PdfDocument toMergeDocument = new PdfDocument(toMergeReader);
PdfWriter writer = new PdfWriter(targetFileName + "_MergedVersion.pdf");
PdfDocument writeDocument = new PdfDocument(writer);
int pageCount = toMergeDocument.getNumberOfPages();
for (int i = 1; i <= pageCount; i++) {
PdfPage page = document.getPage(i);
writeDocument.addPage(page.copyTo(writeDocument));
PdfPage pdfPage = toMergeDocument.getPage(i);
List<PdfAnnotation> pageAnnots = pdfPage.getAnnotations();
if (pageAnnots != null) {
for (PdfAnnotation pdfAnnotation : pageAnnots) {
PdfObject annotObject = pdfAnnotation.getPdfObject().copyTo(writeDocument);
writeDocument.getPage(i).addAnnotation(PdfAnnotation.makeAnnotation(annotObject));
}
}
}
reader.close();
toMergeReader.close();
toMergeDocument.close();
document.close();
writeDocument.close();
writer.close();
We are in the last steps of evaluating iText7. We use iText 7.1.0 and html2pdf 2.0.0.
What we do: we send a json_encoded collection with pdf-data (which includes html for header, body and footer) to our Java app. There we iterate over the collection, create a byteArrayOutputStream for each pdf-data element and merge them together. We then send the results to a script which echoes it to e.g. a browser. Although the pdf is displayed correctly, we encounter errors while creating it:
com.itextpdf.io.IOException: Error at file pointer 226,416.
...
Caused by: com.itextpdf.io.IOException: xref subsection not found.
... 73 common frames omitted
If we create only one part of the collection, no error is thrown.
Iterate over collection and merge:
#RequestMapping(value = "/pdf", method = RequestMethod.POST, produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_PDF_VALUE)
public byte[] index(#RequestBody PDFDataModelCollection elements, Model model) throws IOException {
ByteArrayOutputStream byteArrayOutputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
PdfWriter writer = new PdfWriter(byteArrayOutputStream);
try (PdfDocument resultDoc = new PdfDocument(writer)) {
for (PDFDataModel pdfDataModel : elements.getElements()) {
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(new ByteArrayInputStream(creationService.createDatasheet(pdfDataModel)));
try (PdfDocument sourceDoc = new PdfDocument(reader)) {
int n = sourceDoc.getNumberOfPages(); //<-- IOException on second iteration
for (int i = 1; i <= n; i++) {
PdfPage page = sourceDoc.getPage(i).copyTo(resultDoc);
resultDoc.addPage(page);
}
}
}
}
return byteArrayOutputStream.toByteArray(); //outputs the final pdf
}
Creation of part:
public byte[] createDatasheet(PDFDataModel pdfDataModel) throws IOException {
PdfWriter writer = new PdfWriter(byteArrayOutputStream);
//Initialize PDF document
PdfDocument pdfDoc = new PdfDocument(writer);
try (
Document document = new Document(pdfDoc)
) {
//header, footer, etc
//body
for (IElement element : HtmlConverter.convertToElements(pdfDataModel.getBody(), this.props)) {
document.add((IBlockElement) element);
}
footer.writeTotalNumberOnPages(pdfDoc);
}
return byteArrayOutputStream.toByteArray();
}
We are grateful for any suggestion.
In createDatasheet you appear to re-use some byteArrayOutputStream without clearing it first.
In the first iteration, therefore, everything works as desired, at the end of createDatasheet you have a single PDF file in it.
In the second iteration, though, you have two PDF files in that byteArrayOutputStream, one after the other. This concatenation does not form a valid single PDF.
Thus, byteArrayOutputStream.toByteArray() returns something broken.
To fix this, either make the byteArrayOutputStream local to createDatasheet and create a new instance every time or alternatively reset byteArrayOutputStream at the start of createDatasheet:
public byte[] createDatasheet(PDFDataModel pdfDataModel) throws IOException {
byteArrayOutputStream.reset();
PdfWriter writer = new PdfWriter(byteArrayOutputStream);

I want to download a file and save it into my app folder. I have to download different files with different formats, but only one each time.
I've read that I have to use HttpUtils, but sample codes are to difficult for me (I'm too noob).
Can anyone upload any sample code?? Thanks!!
This should point you in the right direction:
URL u = new URL(urlString);
HttpURLConnection c = (HttpURLConnection) u.openConnection();
c.setRequestMethod("GET");
c.setDoOutput(true);
c.connect();
File file = new File(outputDirectoryFile, outputFileName);
OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(file);
InputStream in = c.getInputStream();
byte[] buffer = new byte[4096];
while ( (int len1 = in.read(buffer)) > 0 ) {
out.write(buffer,0, len1);
}
in.close();
out.close();
c.disconnect();
Remember, you should never perform operations like this on the default UI tread. It could prompt the user to force close your app. Read more here:
http://developer.android.com/resources/articles/painless-threading.html
This is how I finally do:
imgurl = "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25045/file.jpg"
HttpUtils.CallbackActivity = "myactivity" 'Current activity name.
HttpUtils.CallbackJobDoneSub = "JobDone"
HttpUtils.Download("Job1", imgurl)
Dim out As OutputStream
out = File.OpenOutput(File.DirInternal, "file.jpg", True)
File.Copy2(HttpUtils.GetInputStream(imgurl), out)
out.Close
I am trying to read a xml file from the web and parse it out using XDocument. It normally works fine but sometimes it gives me this error for day:
**' ', hexadecimal value 0x1F, is an invalid character. Line 1, position 1**
I have tried some solutions from Google but they aren't working for VS 2010 Express Windows Phone 7.
There is a solution which replace the 0x1F character to string.empty but my code return a stream which doesn't have replace method.
s = s.Replace(Convert.ToString((byte)0x1F), string.Empty);
Here is my code:
void webClient_OpenReadCompleted(object sender, OpenReadCompletedEventArgs e)
{
using (var reader = new StreamReader(e.Result))
{
int[] counter = { 1 };
string s = reader.ReadToEnd();
Stream str = e.Result;
// s = s.Replace(Convert.ToString((byte)0x1F), string.Empty);
// byte[] str = Convert.FromBase64String(s);
// Stream memStream = new MemoryStream(str);
str.Position = 0;
XDocument xdoc = XDocument.Load(str);
var data = from query in xdoc.Descendants("user")
select new mobion
{
index = counter[0]++,
avlink = (string)query.Element("user_info").Element("avlink"),
nickname = (string)query.Element("user_info").Element("nickname"),
track = (string)query.Element("track"),
artist = (string)query.Element("artist"),
};
listBox.ItemsSource = data;
}
}
XML file:
http://music.mobion.vn/api/v1/music/userstop?devid=
0x1f is a Windows control character. It is not valid XML. Your best bet is to replace it.
Instead of using reader.ReadToEnd() (which by the way - for a large file - can use up a lot of memory.. though you can definitely use it) why not try something like:
string input;
while ((input = sr.ReadLine()) != null)
{
string = string + input.Replace((char)(0x1F), ' ');
}
you can re-convert into a stream if you'd like, to then use as you please.
byte[] byteArray = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes( input );
MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream( byteArray );
Or else you could keep doing readToEnd() and then clean that string of illegal characters, and convert back to a stream.
Here's a good resource for cleaning illegal characters in your xml - chances are, youll have others as well...

What could be happening is that the content is compressed in which case you need to decompress it.
With HttpHandler you can do this the following way:
var client = new HttpClient(new HttpClientHandler
{
AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.GZip
| DecompressionMethods.Deflate
});
With the "old" WebClient you have to derive your own class to achieve the similar effect:
class MyWebClient : WebClient
{
protected override WebRequest GetWebRequest(Uri address)
{
HttpWebRequest request = base.GetWebRequest(address) as HttpWebRequest;
request.AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.Deflate | DecompressionMethods.GZip;
return request;
}
}
Above taken from here
To use the two you would do something like this:
HttpClient
using (var client = new HttpClient(new HttpClientHandler { AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.GZip | DecompressionMethods.Deflate }))
{
using (var stream = client.GetStreamAsync(url))
{
using (var sr = new StreamReader(stream.Result))
{
using (var reader = XmlReader.Create(sr))
{
var feed = System.ServiceModel.Syndication.SyndicationFeed.Load(reader);
foreach (var item in feed.Items)
{
Console.WriteLine(item.Title.Text);
}
}
}
}
}
WebClient
using (var stream = new MyWebClient().OpenRead("http://myrss.url"))
{
using (var sr = new StreamReader(stream))
{
using (var reader = XmlReader.Create(sr))
{
var feed = System.ServiceModel.Syndication.SyndicationFeed.Load(reader);
foreach (var item in feed.Items)
{
Console.WriteLine(item.Title.Text);
}
}
}
}
This way you also recieve the benefit of not having to .ReadToEnd() since you are working with the stream instead.
Consider using System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlDecode if you're decoding content read from the web.
If you are having issues replacing the character
For me there were some issues if you try to replace using the string instead of the char. I suggest trying some testing values using both to see what they turn up. Also how you reference it has some effect.
var a = x.IndexOf('\u001f'); // 513
var b = x.IndexOf(Convert.ToString((byte)0x1F)); // -1
x = x.Replace(Convert.ToChar((byte)0x1F), ' '); // Works
x = x.Replace(Convert.ToString((byte)0x1F), " "); // Fails
I blagged this
I had the same issue and found that the problem was a embedded in the xml.
The solution was:
s = s.Replace(" ", " ")
I'd guess it's probably an encoding issue but without seeing the XML I can't say for sure.
In terms of your plan to simply replace the character but not being able to, because you have a stream rather than a text, simply read the stream into a string and then remove the characters you don't want.
Works for me.........
string.Replace(Chr(31), "")
I used XmlSerializer to parse XML and faced the same exception.
The problem is that the XML string contains HTML codes of invalid characters
This method removes all invalid HTML codes from string (based on this thread - https://forums.asp.net/t/1483793.aspx?Need+a+method+that+removes+illegal+XML+characters+from+a+String):
public static string RemoveInvalidXmlSubstrs(string xmlStr)
{
string pattern = "&#((\\d+)|(x\\S+));";
Regex regex = new Regex(pattern, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
if (regex.IsMatch(xmlStr))
{
xmlStr = regex.Replace(xmlStr, new MatchEvaluator(m =>
{
string s = m.Value;
string unicodeNumStr = s.Substring(2, s.Length - 3);
int unicodeNum = unicodeNumStr.StartsWith("x") ?
Convert.ToInt32(unicodeNumStr.Substring(1), 16)
: Convert.ToInt32(unicodeNumStr);
//according to https://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#charsets
if ((unicodeNum == 0x9 || unicodeNum == 0xA || unicodeNum == 0xD) ||
((unicodeNum >= 0x20) && (unicodeNum <= 0xD7FF)) ||
((unicodeNum >= 0xE000) && (unicodeNum <= 0xFFFD)) ||
((unicodeNum >= 0x10000) && (unicodeNum <= 0x10FFFF)))
{
return s;
}
else
{
return String.Empty;
}
})
);
}
return xmlStr;
}
Nobody can answer if you don't show relevant info - I mean the Xml content.
As a general advice I would put a breakpoint after ReadToEnd() call. Now you can do a couple of things:
Reveal Xml content to this forum.
Test it using VS Xml visualizer.
Copy-paste the string into a txt file and investigate it offline.
To load XML files with arbitrary encoding I have the following code:
Encoding encoding;
using (var reader = new XmlTextReader(filepath))
{
reader.MoveToContent();
encoding = reader.Encoding;
}
var settings = new XmlReaderSettings { NameTable = new NameTable() };
var xmlns = new XmlNamespaceManager(settings.NameTable);
var context = new XmlParserContext(null, xmlns, "", XmlSpace.Default,
encoding);
using (var reader = XmlReader.Create(filepath, settings, context))
{
return XElement.Load(reader);
}
This works, but it seems a bit inefficient to open the file twice. Is there a better way to detect the encoding such that I can do:
Open file
Detect encoding
Read XML into an XElement
Close file
Ok, I should have thought of this earlier. Both XmlTextReader (which gives us the Encoding) and XmlReader.Create (which allows us to specify encoding) accepts a Stream. So how about first opening a FileStream and then use this with both XmlTextReader and XmlReader, like this:
using (var txtreader = new FileStream(filepath, FileMode.Open))
{
using (var xmlreader = new XmlTextReader(txtreader))
{
// Read in the encoding info
xmlreader.MoveToContent();
var encoding = xmlreader.Encoding;
// Rewind to the beginning
txtreader.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
var settings = new XmlReaderSettings { NameTable = new NameTable() };
var xmlns = new XmlNamespaceManager(settings.NameTable);
var context = new XmlParserContext(null, xmlns, "", XmlSpace.Default,
encoding);
using (var reader = XmlReader.Create(txtreader, settings, context))
{
return XElement.Load(reader);
}
}
}
This works like a charm. Reading XML files in an encoding independent way should have been more elegant but at least I'm getting away with only one file open.
Another option, quite simple, is to use Linq to XML. The Load method automatically reads the encoding from the xml file. You can then get the encoder value by using the XDeclaration.Encoding property.
An example from MSDN:
// Create the document
XDocument encodedDoc16 = new XDocument(
new XDeclaration("1.0", "utf-16", "yes"),
new XElement("Root", "Content")
);
encodedDoc16.Save("EncodedUtf16.xml");
Console.WriteLine("Encoding is:{0}", encodedDoc16.Declaration.Encoding);
Console.WriteLine();
// Read the document
XDocument newDoc16 = XDocument.Load("EncodedUtf16.xml");
Console.WriteLine("Encoded document:");
Console.WriteLine(File.ReadAllText("EncodedUtf16.xml"));
Console.WriteLine();
Console.WriteLine("Encoding of loaded document is:{0}", newDoc16.Declaration.Encoding);
While this may not server the original poster, as he would have to refactor a lot of code, it is useful for someone who has to write new code for their project, or if they think that refactoring is worth it.
