Hello I searched the internet this exception,
I have not found solution so I decided to ask.
in a console application I need to search a folder a certain number of xml files. such file is encoded in ANSI.
what the application does is to take the file and convert it to utf-8 encoding.
but as the cycle goes catch this exception.
Invalid character in the given encoding. Line 1, position 2757
I get the xml from a third
alguna Idea? muchas gracias.
this is my code
i get this exception in 3 xmls of 100
int Count = 0;
string sNombre = "";
string targetPath = #"C:\SomePath\";
string logError = "log_xml_Error.log";
if (File.Exists(#"log_xml_Error.log"))
{
File.Delete(#"log_xml_Error.log");
}
Console.WriteLine("press enter");
Console.ReadLine();
string[] xmls = Directory.GetFiles(targetPath, "*.xml", SearchOption.AllDirectories);
foreach (var sFile in xmls)
{
try
{
Count++;
XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
xmlDoc.Load(sFile);
byte[] sXmlByte = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(xmlDoc.OuterXml);
sName = Path.GetFileName(sFile);
string sCompletePathXML = #"C:\SomePath\" + sName;
if (!File.Exists(sCompletePathXML))
{
File.WriteAllText(sCompletePathXML, System.Text.UTF8Encoding.UTF8.GetString(sXmlByte), System.Text.UTF8Encoding.UTF8);
}
Console.WriteLine(Count);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
using (StreamWriter sw = File.AppendText(logError))
{
sw.WriteLine(" Error: " + ex.Message + "XML :" + sName);
}
}
}
Console.WriteLine("process complete");
Console.ReadLine();
what the application does is to take the file and convert it to utf-8 encoding
I would simle do
var xdoc = XDocument.Parse(File.ReadAllText(filename,Encoding.ASCII));
File.WriteAllText(filename, xdoc.ToString(), Encoding.UTF8);

Have a look at xsd.exe. You run this against your XSD and it gives you classes based on the XSD elements and attributes. You don't need to work with raw XML or XSD after that.
Below is a sample of the type of XML file I am trying to handle. If I have only one part along with an accompanying number/character I can process the data extraction without the necessity of the 'if (!reader.EOF)' control structure. However when I try to include this structure so that I can loop back to checking for another part, number, and character group, it deadlocks.
Any advice as to how to do this properly? This was the most efficient idea that popped into my head. I am new to reading data from XMLs.
Sample Xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<note>
<part>100B</part>
<number>45</number>
<character>a</character>
<part>100C</part>
<number>55</number>
<character>b</character>
</note>
Code:
String part = "part";
String number = "number";
String character = "character";
String appendString = "";
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
try
{
XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader("myPath");
while (reader.Read())
{
switch (reader.NodeType)
{
case XmlNodeType.Element: // The node is an element.
myLabel:
if (reader.Name == part)
{
part = reader.ReadInnerXml();
}
if (reader.Name == number)
{
number = reader.ReadInnerXml();
number = double.Parse(number).ToString("F2"); //format num
}
if (reader.Name == character)
{
character = reader.ReadInnerXml();
}
//new string
appendString = ("Part: " + part + "\nNumber: " + number +
"\nCharacter: " + character + "\n");
//concatenate
sb.AppendLine(appendString);
if (reader.EOF != true)
{
Debug.Log("!eof");
part = "part";
number = "number";
character = "character";
goto myLabel;
}
//print fully concatenated result
sb.ToString();
//reset string builder
sb.Length = 0;
break;
}
}
}
catch (XmlException e)
{
// Write error.
Debug.Log(e.Message);
}
catch (FileNotFoundException e)
{
// Write error.
Debug.Log(e);
}
catch(ArgumentException e)
{
// Write error.
Debug.Log(e);
}
XmlReader class has many useful methods. Use it.
See this:
var sb = new StringBuilder();
using (var reader = XmlReader.Create("test.xml"))
{
while (reader.ReadToFollowing("part"))
{
var part = reader.ReadElementContentAsString();
sb.Append("Part: ").AppendLine(part);
reader.ReadToFollowing("number");
var number = reader.ReadElementContentAsDouble();
sb.Append("Number: ").Append(number).AppendLine();
reader.ReadToFollowing("character");
var character = reader.ReadElementContentAsString();
sb.Append("Character: ").AppendLine(character);
}
}
Console.WriteLine(sb);
Alexander's answer is fine, I just want to add sample using XDocument, according comments of Jon Skeet:
var sb = new StringBuilder();
var note = XDocument.Load("test.xml").Root.Descendants();
foreach (var el in note)
{
sb.Append(el.Name).Append(": ").AppendLine(el.Value);
}
Console.WriteLine(sb);
I have an XML file which have multiple messages in one large file, my objective it to split the file into singe xml file for each message, I have a c# code which only gets me the first instance of the message. can you please tell what am I missing here:
Here is my code :
string strSeq;
string strFileName;
XDocument doc = XDocument.Load(#"C:\XMl\MR.xml");
var newDocs = doc.Descendants("Message")
.Select(d => new XDocument(new XElement("FileDump", d)));
foreach (var newDoc in newDocs)
{
strSeq = XDocument.Load(#"C:\XMl\MR.xml").XPathSelectElement
"//FileDump/Message/MsgID").Value;
strFileName = "MR_" + strSeq + ".xml";
newDoc.Save(Console.Out); Console.WriteLine();
newDoc.Save(#"C:\xml\MR\Tst\" + strFileName);
Console.WriteLine();
}
You should search for message ID within newDoc instead of doc:
foreach (var newDoc in newDocs)
{
strSeq = newDoc.XPathSelectElement("//FileDump/Message/MsgID").Value;
strFileName = "MR_" + strSeq + ".xml";
newDoc.Save(Console.Out); Console.WriteLine();
newDoc.Save(#"C:\xml\MR\Tst\" + strFileName);
Console.WriteLine();
}
Try,
string path = #"C:\xml\MR\Tst\MR_";
XElement root = XElement.Load(file);
foreach(XElement message in root.Descendants("Message"))
{
string id = message.Element("MsgID").Value;
message.Save(path + id + ".xml");
}
I'm trying to extract an ISO to a folder with the same name without .iso on the end.
I'm having a problem with winrar as it will not start the extract when I start up with the seach starting in the folder with the ISO.
UPDATED with answer code
private void ExtractISO(string toExtract, string folderName)
{
// reads the ISO
CDReader Reader = new CDReader(File.Open(toExtract, FileMode.Open), true);
// passes the root directory the folder name and the folder to extract
ExtractDirectory(Reader.Root, folderName /*+ Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(toExtract)*/ + "\\", "");
// clears reader and frees memory
Reader.Dispose();
}
private void ExtractDirectory(DiscDirectoryInfo Dinfo, string RootPath, string PathinISO)
{
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(PathinISO))
{
PathinISO += "\\" + Dinfo.Name;
}
RootPath += "\\" + Dinfo.Name;
AppendDirectory(RootPath);
foreach (DiscDirectoryInfo dinfo in Dinfo.GetDirectories())
{
ExtractDirectory(dinfo, RootPath, PathinISO);
}
foreach (DiscFileInfo finfo in Dinfo.GetFiles())
{
using (Stream FileStr = finfo.OpenRead())
{
using (FileStream Fs = File.Create(RootPath + "\\" + finfo.Name)) // Here you can Set the BufferSize Also e.g. File.Create(RootPath + "\\" + finfo.Name, 4 * 1024)
{
FileStr.CopyTo(Fs, 4 * 1024); // Buffer Size is 4 * 1024 but you can modify it in your code as per your need
}
}
}
}
static void AppendDirectory(string path)
{
try
{
if (!Directory.Exists(path))
{
Directory.CreateDirectory(path);
}
}
catch (DirectoryNotFoundException Ex)
{
AppendDirectory(Path.GetDirectoryName(path));
}
catch (PathTooLongException Ex)
{
AppendDirectory(Path.GetDirectoryName(path));
}
}
The user selects the folder to extract (.ISO) toExtract. I then use it in the Process.Start() in the background worker. That just seems to open the mounting software and doesn't extract the ISO to the desired folder name.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Or if anyone could give me a batch to extract the ISO instead and to call it from c# passing toExtract and the folder name that would be helpful too.
Thanks
If external Class Libraries are OK!
Then use SevenZipSharp or .NET DiscUtils to extract ISO's...
These two ClassLibraries can manage ISO and Extract them!
For DiscUtils you can find some codes for ISO Management [CDReader Class] at the Link I provided.
But For SevenZipSharp, Please Explore the ClassLibrary source and find the Code to Extract or Google to find it!
To get the Name of the folder just use Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension((string)ISOFileName) which will return "ISOFile" for an iso named "ISOFile.iso". And then you can use it with your desired path.
UPDATE
Code To Extract ISO Image with DiscUtils :
using DiscUtils;
using DiscUtils.Iso9660;
void ExtractISO(string ISOName, string ExtractionPath)
{
using (FileStream ISOStream = File.Open(ISOName, FileMode.Open))
{
CDReader Reader = new CDReader(ISOStream, true, true);
ExtractDirectory(Reader.Root, ExtractionPath + Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(ISOName) + "\\", "");
Reader.Dispose();
}
}
void ExtractDirectory(DiscDirectoryInfo Dinfo, string RootPath, string PathinISO)
{
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(PathinISO))
{
PathinISO += "\\" + Dinfo.Name;
}
RootPath += "\\" + Dinfo.Name;
AppendDirectory(RootPath);
foreach (DiscDirectoryInfo dinfo in Dinfo.GetDirectories())
{
ExtractDirectory(dinfo, RootPath, PathinISO);
}
foreach (DiscFileInfo finfo in Dinfo.GetFiles())
{
using (Stream FileStr = finfo.OpenRead())
{
using (FileStream Fs = File.Create(RootPath + "\\" + finfo.Name)) // Here you can Set the BufferSize Also e.g. File.Create(RootPath + "\\" + finfo.Name, 4 * 1024)
{
FileStr.CopyTo(Fs, 4 * 1024); // Buffer Size is 4 * 1024 but you can modify it in your code as per your need
}
}
}
}
static void AppendDirectory(string path)
{
try
{
if (!Directory.Exists(path))
{
Directory.CreateDirectory(path);
}
}
catch (DirectoryNotFoundException Ex)
{
AppendDirectory(Path.GetDirectoryName(path));
}
catch (PathTooLongException Exx)
{
AppendDirectory(Path.GetDirectoryName(path));
}
}
Use It with Like This :
ExtractISO(ISOFileName, Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.DesktopDirectory) + "\\");
Working! Tested By Me!
And Of Course You can always add more Optimization to the code...
This Code is Just a Basic One!

}
else
{
DiscFileSystem dfs = fsia[0].Open(streamIsoFile);
ReadIsoFolder(dfs, #"", sDestinationRootPath);
return;
}
}
finally

streamIsoFile.Close();
}
}
}

it has extracted from a application source ISOReader but modified for my requirements
total source is available at http://www.java2s.com/Open-Source/CSharp_Free_CodeDownload/i/isoreader.zip
Try this:
string Desktop = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop);
Process.Start("Winrar.exe", string.Format("x {0} {1}",
Desktop + "\\test.rar",
Desktop + "\\SomeFolder"));
That would extract the file test.rar to the folder SomeFolder. You can change the .rar extention to .iso, it'll work the same.
As far as I can see in your current code, there is no command given to extract a file, and no path to the file that has to be extracted. Try this example and let me know if it works =]
P.S. If you'd like to hide the extracting screen, you can set the YourProcessInfo.WindowStyle to ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden.
I hace confrunted recently with this kind of .iso extraction issue. After trying several methods, 7zip did the job for me, you just have to make sure that the latest version of 7zip is installed on your system. Maybe it will help

I have a windows service , that takes files with metadata(FIDEF) and corresponding video file and , translates the XML(FIDEF) using XSLT .
I get the file directory listing for FIDEF's and if a video file of the same name exists it translates it. That works ok , but it is on a timer to search every minute. I am trying to handle situations where the same file name enters the input directory but is already in the output directory. I just have it changing the output name to (copy) thus if another file enters i should get (copy)(copy).mov but the service won't start with filenames of the same directory already in the output , it works once and then does not seem to pick up any new files.
Any Help would be great as I have tried a few things with no good results. I believe its the renaming methods, but I've put most of the code up in case its a clean up issue or something else.
(forgive some of the names just trying different things).

There is a lot wrong with your code. getFileList has the unneeded inner for loop for starters. Get rid of it. Your foreach loop has s, which can replace filepaths[i] from your for loop. Also, don't do outputPath + result to make file paths. Use Path.Combine(outputPath, result) instead, since Path.Combine handles directory characters for you. Also, you need to come up with a better name for getFileList, since that is not what the method does at all. Do not make your method names liars.
I would simply get rid of MoveVideoFiles. The compiler just might too.
GetUniqueName only works if your file name is of the form name.mov.fidef, which I'm assuming it is. You really need better variable names though, otherwise it will be a maintenance nightware later on. I would get rid of the == true in the while loop condition, but that is optional. The assignment inside the while is why your files get overwritten. You always generate the same name (something(Copy).mov.fidef), and as far as I can see, if the file exists, I think you blow the stack looping forever. You need to fix that loop to generate a new name (and don't forget Path.Combine). Maybe something like this (note this is untested):
int copyCount = 0;
while (File.Exists(ValidName))
{
const string CopyName = "(Copy)";
string copyString = copyCount == 0 ? CopyName : (CopyName + "(" + copyCount + ")");
string tempName = Justname + copyString + Extension2 + Extension;
ValidName = Path.Combine(outputPath, tempName);
copyCount++;
}
This generates something(Copy).mov.fidef for the first copy, something(Copy)(2).mov.fidef for the second, and so on. Maybe not what you want, but you can make adjustments.
At this point you have a lot to do. getMovFile looks as though it could use work in the same manner as GetUniqueName. You'll figure it out. Good luck.
