I have windows form app with the following part of code when the Form Loads
public MonitorMail()
{
InitializeComponent();
pathfile = Directory.GetCurrentDirectory();
pathfile = pathfile + #"\Log\Configuration.txt";
var Lista = LoadConfigFile.LoadConfig(pathfile);
if (Lista.Count > 0)
{
SwithMailText.Text = Lista[0];
Excel_Textbox.Text = Lista[1];
LogFileText.Text = Lista[2];
MailServerText.Text = Lista[3];
FromText.Text = Lista[4];
SslText.Text = Lista[5];
UserText.Text = Lista[6];
}
}
As you can see in this code i declare a List named as "Lista" which List takes the records of the Configuration file and fill some textboxes with the data of that Configuration file.
My problem is the following: when I run my program inside in Visual Studio, it loads the records correctly in those textboxes.
When I run my program runs outside of Visual Studio, it also loads the records correctly
BUT
When I try run my program from the command prompt (because this how it should be run) like MonitorMail.exe the program runs but does not show the data in the textboxes.
After trying to understand why is this happening I noticed that is has something to do with
pathfile = Directory.GetCurrentDirectory();
I concluded to that because I changed the pathfile to pathfile="complete path of the Configuration.txt" so when I hit it from cmd works as it should be.
Any idea why Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(); affects cmd? Or is something am I missing?
You wrote in the comments: "i need for every PC to get current directory that my .exe is", but that is not what Directory.GetCurrentDirectory() does...
You need
string myPath = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().Location;
instead. That gives you the full path including the file name. You can take the Location's Directory if that is what you need.
I'm attempting to build a java process to execute the docusign retrieve product via the command line. I've written the process to execute based on a given property file.
buildRoot = isWindowsOs() ? "C:" + "\\Program Files (x86)\\DocuSign, Inc\\Retrieve 3.2" : "\\Program Files (x86)\\DocuSign, Inc\\Retrieve 3.2" ;
String[] command = new String [2];
command[0] = "\""+buildRoot+ "\\" + docuSignAppName+"\"";
logger.info(command[0].toString());
//ADDED FOR EXPLANATION - "C:\Program Files (x86)\DocuSign, Inc\Retrieve 3.2\DocuSignRetrieve.exe"
command[1] = arguments;
logger.info(command[1].toString());
ProcessBuilder processBuilder = new ProcessBuilder(command);
logger.info("ProcessBuilder starting directory" +processBuilder.directory());
processBuilder.redirectErrorStream(true);
p = processBuilder.start();
InputStream is = p.getInputStream();
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(is);
stdout = new BufferedReader(isr);
Once I pass in the built out string of parameters the executed code looks like the sample provided but always results in the error back to the screen "Missing "accountid" parameter".
The parameter list looks like the following.
/endpoint "Demo"
/userid "REMOVED"
/password "REMOVED"
/accountid "REMOVED"
/span "-1"
/spanfilter "Completed"
/statusfilter "Completed"
/fieldlog "LIST OF FIELDS"
/nstyle "EnvelopeID"
/save "MergedPdfWithoutCert"
/dir "D:\DocuSignStore"
/includeheaders "true"
Any help or assistance would be appreciated.
The solution was found in a StackOverflow discussion regarding common issues with the ProcessBuilder.
My problem was that I expected by changing the putting in the full path, that I could run the executable. For the reason I'm not sure right now, that wasn't working as expected. The solution was to run the CMD command which exists on the %PATH% on any windows OS.
String[] command = new String [2];
command[0] = "\""+buildRoot+ "\\" + docuSignAppName+"\"";
logger.info(command[0].toString());
//ADDED FOR EXPLANATION - "C:\Program Files (x86)\DocuSign, Inc\Retrieve 3.2\DocuSignRetrieve.exe"
command[1] = arguments;
logger.info(command[1].toString());
//This starts a new command prompt
ProcessBuilder processBuilder = new ProcessBuilder("cmd","/c","DocusignRetreive.exe);
//This sets the directory to run the command prompt from
File newLoc = new File("C:/Program Files (x86)/DocuSign, Inc/Retrieve 3.2");
processBuilder.directory(newLoc);
logger.info("ProcessBuilder starting directory" +processBuilder.directory());
processBuilder.redirectErrorStream(true);
/*When the process builder starts the prompt looks like
*C:\Program Files (x86)\DocuSign, Inc\Retrieve 3.2
*Now DocusignRetrieve.exe is an executable in the directory to be run
*/
p = processBuilder.start();

Try by giving ReadWrite FileAccess.
And you can get the root web directly if you know the Url instead of using SPSite.
Here's my script I use and has always worked
$siteUrl = '“https://abc.abctools.consumer.abc.net/sites/rtc”'
$listUrl = '“https://abc.abctools.consumer.abc.net/sites/rtc/Shared Documents”'
$folderPath = 'C:\\....'
$web = Get-SPWeb -Identity $siteUrl
$list = $web.GetList($listUrl)
$items = $list.Items
ForEach ($item in $items)
{
$binary = $item.File.OpenBinary();
$folderPathToSave = $folderPath + "\\" + $item.Name;
if ($binary -ne $null)
{
$stream = New-Object System.IO.FileStream($folderPathToSave,[System.IO.FileMode]::Create,[System.IO.FileAccess]::ReadWrite);
$writer = New-Object System.IO.BinaryWriter($stream);
$writer.Write($binary);
$writer.Close();
}
}
$web.Dispose()

Right what im trying to accomplish is a program that basically sets the active partition in 1 click, saving the effort time and skill of using cmd prompt etc.
I have looked into the System.Management name space but couldn't work out how to use it :(
So i have resorted to using CMD, i have got a module application written in C# and basically i want to run "DISKPART" which then starts the diskpart in the cmd window, then i want to ask it to "Select disk 0" followed by "select partition 1" finally followed by "active".
Doing this in CMD yourself works fine but with an application its proved to be awkward :( What ive managed to get it to do is run DiskPart fine in one window with Process.Start, then get it to open a new window and run the next piece of code but because the new window hasnt ran the diskpart cmd it doesnt work >:(
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

As long as you aren't making decisions on the output, you could build a batch file in your C# app and start that via Process.Start(...).
You'll need to generate two files.
First runDiskPart.bat:
diskpart /s myScript.dp
Second myScript.dp:
...some commands...
exit
Obviously the names are completely arbitrary but the /s directive needs to reference the name of your second file.
After some searching, I think you can do what you want with a script file. Read this.
You can therefore run diskpart /s script.txt with Process.Start after creating a script.txt file with your necessary commands.
This may be a bit of a read so im sorry in advance. And this is my tried and tested way of doing this, there may be a simpler way but this is from me throwing code at a wall and seeing what stuck
TLDR code for this question in particular
Ok sorry This one is actually not tested. this one IN THEORY works
public static void ChangeMe()
{
string docPath =
Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments);
string path1 = docPath + "\\Test.txt";
string path2 = docPath + "\\Test.bat";
string[] lines =
{
"select disk 0",
"clean",
"convert gpt",
"create partition primary size=300",
"format quick fs=ntfs label=Windows RE tools",
"assign letter=T"
};
using (StreamWriter outputFile = new StreamWriter(Path.Combine(docPath, "test.txt")))
{
foreach (string line in lines)
outputFile.WriteLine(line);
}
string[] lines =
{
"diskpart /s test.txt"
};
using (StreamWriter outputFile = new StreamWriter(Path.Combine(docPath, "test.bat")))
{
foreach (string line in lines)
outputFile.WriteLine(line);
}
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(path2);
}
If what you want to do be can be done in batch file, then the maybe over complicated work around is have c# write a .bat file and run it. If you want user input you could place the input into a variable and have c# write it into the file. it will take trial and error with this way because its like controlling a puppet with another puppet. And with Diskpart its a little more complicated because you have to make 2 files one that is a .bat and one that is a txt.
here is an example for just a batch file, In this case the function is for a push button in windows forum app that clears the print queue.
using System.IO;
using System;
public static void ClearPrintQueue()
{
//this is the path the document or in our case batch file will be placed
string docPath =
Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments);
//this is the path process.start usues
string path1 = docPath + "\\Test.bat";
// these are the batch commands
// remember its "", the comma separates the lines
string[] lines =
{
"#echo off",
"net stop spooler",
"del %systemroot%\\System32\\spool\\Printers\\* /Q",
"net start spooler",
//this deletes the file
"del \"%~f0\"" //do not put a comma on the last line
};
//this writes the string to the file
using (StreamWriter outputFile = new StreamWriter(Path.Combine(docPath, "test.bat")))
{
//This writes the file line by line
foreach (string line in lines)
outputFile.WriteLine(line);
}
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(path1);
}
IF you want user input then you could try something like this.
This is for setting the computer IP as static but asking the user what the IP, gateway, and dns server is.
you will need this for it to work
public static void SetIPStatic()
{
//These open pop up boxes which ask for user input
string STATIC = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.InputBox("Whats the static IP?", "", "", 100, 100);
string SUBNET = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.InputBox("Whats the Subnet?(Press enter for default)", "255.255.255.0", "", 100, 100);
string DEFAULTGATEWAY = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.InputBox("Whats the Default gateway?", "", "", 100, 100);
string DNS = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.InputBox("Whats the DNS server IP?(Input required, 8.8.4.4 has already been set as secondary)", "", "", 100, 100);
//this is the path the document or in our case batch file will be placed
string docPath =
Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments);
//this is the path process.start usues
string path1 = docPath + "\\Test.bat";
// these are the batch commands
// remember its "", the comma separates the lines
string[] lines =
{
"SETLOCAL EnableDelayedExpansion",
"SET adapterName=",
"FOR /F \"tokens=* delims=:\" %%a IN ('IPCONFIG ^| FIND /I \"ETHERNET ADAPTER\"') DO (",
"SET adapterName=%%a",
"REM Removes \"Ethernet adapter\" from the front of the adapter name",
"SET adapterName=!adapterName:~17!",
"REM Removes the colon from the end of the adapter name",
"SET adapterName=!adapterName:~0,-1!",
//the variables that were set before are used here
"netsh interface ipv4 set address name=\"!adapterName!\" static " + STATIC + " " + STATIC + " " + DEFAULTGATEWAY,
"netsh interface ipv4 set dns name=\"!adapterName!\" static " + DNS + " primary",
"netsh interface ipv4 add dns name=\"!adapterName!\" 8.8.4.4 index=2",
")",
"ipconfig /flushdns",
"ipconfig /registerdns",
":EOF",
"DEL \"%~f0\"",
""
};
//this writes the string to the file
using (StreamWriter outputFile = new StreamWriter(Path.Combine(docPath, "test.bat")))
{
//This writes the file line by line
foreach (string line in lines)
outputFile.WriteLine(line);
}
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(path1);
}
Like I said. It may be a little overcomplicated but it never fails unless I write the batch commands wrong.
This is the code for diskpart. You have to understand the command prompt in order to get these to work. With diskpart you cannot just write a script like
diskpart
select disk 0
clean
convert gpt
create partition primary size=300
format quick fs=ntfs label=Windows RE tools
assign letter=T
This is because diskpart opens its own window and the rest of the commands just throw errors in the command prompt window
so you have to get c# to first write a text file with the commands. Then a batch file with the diskpart command to call the text file that you just wrote.
As I said at first This one is actually not tested. this one IN THEORY works
public static void ChangeMe()
{
string docPath =
Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments);
string path1 = docPath + "\\Test.txt";
string path2 = docPath + "\\Test.bat";
string[] lines =
{
"select disk 0",
"clean",
"convert gpt",
"create partition primary size=300",
"format quick fs=ntfs label=Windows RE tools",
"assign letter=T"
};
using (StreamWriter outputFile = new StreamWriter(Path.Combine(docPath, "test.txt")))
{
foreach (string line in lines)
outputFile.WriteLine(line);
}
string[] lines =
{
"diskpart /s test.txt"
};
using (StreamWriter outputFile = new StreamWriter(Path.Combine(docPath, "test.bat")))
{
foreach (string line in lines)
outputFile.WriteLine(line);
}
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(path2);
}
What about introducing a delay, such as Thread.Sleep(1000), so that the other process has time to complete the first command?
What you really want to do is wait for the program to exit and then move onto the next invocation. Take a look at this question.
I would like to add all unversioned files under a directory to SVN using SharpSVN.
I tried regular svn commands on the command line first:
C:\temp\CheckoutDir> svn status -v
I see all subdirs, all the files that are already checked in, a few new files labeled "?", nothing with the "L" lock indication
C:\temp\CheckoutDir> svn add . --force
This results in all new files in the subdirs ,that are already under version control themselves, to be added.
I'd like to do the same using SharpSVN. I copy a few extra files into the same directory and run this code:
...
using ( SharpSvn.SvnClient svn = new SvnClient() )
{
SvnAddArgs saa = new SvnAddArgs();
saa.Force = true;
saa.Depth = SvnDepth.Infinity;
try
{
svn.Add(#"C:\temp\CheckoutDir\." , saa);
}
catch (SvnException exc)
{
Log(#"SVN Exception: " + exc.Message + " - " + exc.File);
}
}
But an SvnException is raised:
SvnException.Message: Working copy 'C:\temp\CheckoutDir' locked
SvnException.File: ..\..\..\subversion\libsvn_wc\lock.c"
No other svnclient instance is running in my code,
I also tried calling
svn.cleanup()
right before the Add, but to no avail.
Since the documentation is rather vague ;),
I was wondering if anyone here knew the answer.
Thanks in advance!

Use this my tool http://svncompletesync.codeplex.com/ or take it as a sample.
It does exactly what you need.
I tried Malcolm's tool but couldn't get it to run now that it looks to be a few years old, but after looking at the source code it looks like this is really all you need to use to sync the local checked out folder with the one in SVN:
string _localCheckoutPath = #"C:\temp\CheckoutDir\";
SvnClient client = new SvnClient();
Collection<SvnStatusEventArgs> changedFiles = new Collection<SvnStatusEventArgs>();
client.GetStatus(_localCheckoutPath, out changedFiles);
//delete files from subversion that are not in filesystem
//add files to suversion , that are new in filesystem
foreach (SvnStatusEventArgs changedFile in changedFiles)
{
if (changedFile.LocalContentStatus == SvnStatus.Missing)
{
client.Delete(changedFile.Path);
}
if (changedFile.LocalContentStatus == SvnStatus.NotVersioned)
{
client.Add(changedFile.Path);
}
}
SvnCommitArgs ca = new SvnCommitArgs();
ca.LogMessage = "Some message...";
client.Commit(_localCheckoutPath, ca);
I think you shouldn't suffix the path with a ','. Try:
svn.Add(#"C:\temp\CheckoutDir" , saa);
Please do discuss this further on the SharpSvn discussion board/mailing list, because the behavior you are seeing might be a bug.
