Xamarin.Droid Resource.designer.cs is generated in a strange way? - xamarin.android

My Resource.Designer.cs file is always generated with a bunch of errors. I can compile and run the app just fine, even with the errors but it spams the Error List window.
In my case, the Resource.Designer.cs file contains these entries:
// aapt resource value: 0x7F020238
public const int bottomtab.navarea = 2130838072;
// aapt resource value: 0x7F020239
public const int bottomtab.tabbar = 2130838073;
...
// aapt resource value: 0x7F020240
public const int flyoutcontent.appbar = 2130838080;
// aapt resource value: 0x7F020241
public const int flyoutcontent.recycler = 2130838081;
...
// aapt resource value: 0x7F020242
public const int main.appbar = 2130838082;
// aapt resource value: 0x7F020245
public const int main.scrollview = 2130838085;
// aapt resource value: 0x7F020244
public const int main.tablayout = 2130838084;
// aapt resource value: 0x7F020243
public const int main.toolbar = 2130838083;
...
// aapt resource value: 0x7F020246
public const int shellcontent.appbar = 2130838086;
// aapt resource value: 0x7F020248
public const int shellcontent.scrollview = 2130838088;
// aapt resource value: 0x7F020247
public const int shellcontent.toolbar = 2130838087;
I already updated any NuGet package to the latest available stable version and I tried to re-generate this file. But it always comes up with these strange variable names ("." inside them) and generated entries within the Error List. So whats the proper way to solve this?

How to keep track of a variable with Clang's static analyzer?

Suppose I'm working with the following C snippet:
void inc(int *num) {*num++;}
void dec(int *num) {*num--;}
void f(int var) {
inc(&var);
dec(&var);
}
By using a static analyzer, I want to be able to tell if the value of var didn't change during the function's execution. I know I have to keep its state on my own (that's the point of writing a Clang checker), but I'm having troubles getting a unique reference of this variable.
For example: if I use the following API
void MySimpleChecker::checkPostCall(const CallEvent &Call,
CheckerContext &C) const {
SymbolRef MyArg = Call.getArgSVal(0).getAsSymbol();
}
I'd expect it to return a pointer to this symbol's representation in my checker's context. However, I always get 0 into MyArg by using it this way. This happens for both inc and dec functions in the pre and post callbacks.
What am I missing here? What concepts did I get wrong?
Note: I'm currently reading the Clang CFE Internals Manual and I've read the excellent How to Write a Checker in 24 Hours material. I still couldn't find my answer so far.
Interpretation of question
Specifically, you want to count the calls to inc and dec applied to each variable and report when they do not balance for some path in a function.
Generally, you want to know how to associate an abstract value, here a number, with a program variable, and be able to update and query that value along each execution path.
High-level answer
Whereas the tutorial checker SimpleStreamChecker.cpp associates an abstract value with the value stored in a variable, here we want associate an abstract value with the variable itself. That is what IteratorChecker.cpp does when tracking containers, so I based my solution on it.
Within the static analyzer's abstract state, each variable is represented by a MemRegion object. So the first step is to make a map where MemRegion is the key:
REGISTER_MAP_WITH_PROGRAMSTATE(TrackVarMap, MemRegion const *, int)
Next, when we have an SVal that corresponds to a pointer to a variable, we can use SVal::getAsRegion to get the corresponding MemRegion. For instance, given a CallEvent, call, with a first argument that is a pointer, we can do:
if (MemRegion const *region = call.getArgSVal(0).getAsRegion()) {
to get the region that the pointer points at.
Then, we can access our map using that region as its key:
state = state->set<TrackVarMap>(region, newValue);
Finally, in checkDeadSymbols, we use SymbolReaper::isLiveRegion to detect when a region (variable) is going out of scope:
const TrackVarMapTy &Map = state->get<TrackVarMap>();
for (auto const &I : Map) {
MemRegion const *region = I.first;
int delta = I.second;
if (SymReaper.isLiveRegion(region) || (delta==0))
continue; // Not dead, or unchanged; skip.

To demonstrate, here is a complete checker that reports unbalanced use of inc and dec:

I think you missed the check that this call event is a call to your function inc/dec. You should have something like
void MySimpleChecker::checkPostCall(const CallEvent &Call,
CheckerContext &C) const {
const IdentifierInfo* callee = Call.getCalleeIdentifier();
if (callee->getName().str() == "inc" || callee->getName().str() == "dec")
SymbolRef MyArg = Call.getArgSVal(0).getAsSymbol();
}

Mbean registered but not found in mbean Server

I have a problem about the mbeans. I have created a simple mbean and I have registered it on the default mBeanServer that is run (Via eclipse or java -jar mbean.jar) and in the same process if I try to fouund the mbean registered with a simple query:
for (ObjectInstance instance : mbs.queryMBeans(ObjectNameMbean, null)) {
System.out.println(instance.toString());
}
the query retuerns my mbean, but if I start another process and try to search this mbean registered the mbeas is not found! why?
The approch is : (Process that is running)
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
{
MBeanServer mbeanServer =ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer();
ObjectName objectName = new ObjectName(ObjectNameMbean);
Simple simple = new Simple (1, 0);
mbeanServer.registerMBean(simple, objectName);
while (true)
{
wait (Is this necessary?)
}
}
So this is the first process that is running (that has the only pourpose to registry the mbean, because there is another process that want to read these informations.
So I start another process to search this mbean but nothing.
I 'm not using jboss but the local Java virtual Machine but my scope is to deploy this simple application in one ejb (autostart) and another ejb will read all informations.
All suggestions are really apprecciated.
This example should be more useful :
Object Hello:
public class Hello implements HelloMBean {
public void sayHello() {
System.out.println("hello, world");
}
public int add(int x, int y) {
return x + y;
}
public String getName() {
return this.name;
}
public int getCacheSize() {
return this.cacheSize;
}
public synchronized void setCacheSize(int size) {
this.cacheSize = size;
System.out.println("Cache size now " + this.cacheSize);
}
private final String name = "Reginald";
private int cacheSize = DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE;
private static final int DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE = 200;
}
Interface HelloBean (implemented by Hello)
public interface HelloMBean {
public void sayHello();
public int add(int x, int y);
public String getName();
public int getCacheSize();
public void setCacheSize(int size);
}
Simple Main
import java.lang.management.ManagementFactory;
import java.util.logging.Logger;
import javax.management.MBeanServer;
import javax.management.ObjectName;
public class Main {
static Logger aLog = Logger.getLogger("MBeanTest");
public static void main(String[] args) {
try{
MBeanServer mbs = ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer();
ObjectName name = new ObjectName("ApplicationDomain:type=Hello");
Hello mbean = new Hello();
mbs.registerMBean(mbean, name);
// System.out.println(mbs.getAttribute(name, "Name"));
aLog.info("Waiting forever...");
Thread.sleep(Long.MAX_VALUE);
}
catch(Exception x){
x.printStackTrace();
aLog.info("exception");
}
}
}
So now I have exported this project as jar file and run it as "java -jar helloBean.jar" and by eclipse I have modified the main class to read informations of this read (Example "Name" attribute) by using the same objectname used to registry it .
Main to read :
public static void main(String[] args) {
try{
MBeanServer mbs = ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer();
ObjectName name = new ObjectName("ApplicationDomain:type=Hello");
System.out.println(mbs.getAttribute(name, "Name"));
}
catch(Exception x){
x.printStackTrace();
aLog.info("exception");
}
}
But nothing, the bean is not found.
Project link : here!
Any idea?
I suspect the issue here is that you have multiple MBeanServer instances. You did not mention how you acquired the MBeanServer in each case, but in your second code sample, you are creating a new MBeanServer instance which may not be the same instance that other threads are reading from. (I assume this is all in one JVM...)
If you are using the platform agent, I recommend you acquire the MBeanServer using the ManagementFactory as follows:
MBeanServer mbs = java.lang.management.ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer() ;
That way, you will always get the same MBeanServer instance.

MSBuild fails to see environment variable that is set from build workflow

This is related to TFS 2010 Build System. Within our build workflow we set a couple of environment variables using the SetEnvironmentVariable method of System.Environment class. I have confirmed that this environment variable gets set properly on the build server and that it gets set as a system wide environment variable.
The problem is that when MSBuild gets invoked within this WF and it compiles the solutions, our post build events which tries to read this environment variable fail as they are unable to see this environment variable.
Is there a way to force MSBuild to reload environment variables or force a running WF to reload environment variables? My suspicion is that even though WF creates this variable, it does not refresh its Environment state and hence can not see the variable. Further since the WF invokes MSBuild, it passes the same environment state to MSBuild which does ont contain this variable.

Stick the following code in Visual Studio and run it. The delay to SendMessageTimeOut is 10 second so be patient.

string environmentVariableValue = DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString().Replace(":", String.Empty);
Console.WriteLine("On the CMD window that opens up after about 10 seconds, if you type %samplevar% and hit Enter, you should see: " + environmentVariableValue);
p.SetEnvironmentVariable(environmentVariableValue);
RefreshProcessVars();
p.ReadEnvironmentVariable();
p.StartCMD();
Console.ReadLine();
}
void SetEnvironmentVariable(string value)
{
System.Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("samplevar", value, EnvironmentVariableTarget.Machine);
}

{
int result;
bool callresult = SendMessageTimeout(
(System.IntPtr)HWND_BROADCAST,
WM_SETTINGCHANGE,
0,

SMTO_BLOCK | SMTO_ABORTIFHUNG | SMTO_NOTIMEOUTIFNOTHUNG,
10000,
out result);
if (!callresult || result == 0)
{
int lasterror = Marshal.GetLastWin32Error();
Win32Exception winex = new Win32Exception(lasterror);
Console.WriteLine("Exception happened while calling SendMessageTimeOut. The exception message is " + winex.Message);
}
}
void ReadEnvironmentVariable()
{
var x = System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("samplevar", EnvironmentVariableTarget.Machine);
}
void StartCMD()
{
Process.Start("cmd.exe");
}
}
}
Unfortunately, because the MSBuild process is passed a cached version of the environment variables when it's started up, the command-line functionality of that process will not be able to see the updated values. The best bet you've got, in my opinion, is to either change that variable in the post-build event or store the value in a medium that you can read from the post-build event.
Update
Okay, so the statement below (which can be found here) I think explains where the environment variables are coming from and why you're not getting an updated version in MSBuild.
By default, a child process inherits the environment variables of its parent process.
So, two can play at that game, let's just broadcast that a change has occurred and see if that will take care of it for us. Below is the code that should do that for you.
[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Auto, SetLastError=true)]

Update
Stumbled upon this great resource today.
https://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/media-types.xhtml
Update 22-03-2020
As Jon and James White mentioned on comments, you can check:
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames
You could use:
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Application
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Image
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Text
For example, System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Image.Gif is equal to "image/gif".
Here is the complete list of default content type constants in .NET Framework base class library (BCL). You will have to add reference to System.Net.Http.dll in your project to use these constants.
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Application.Octet for application/octet-stream
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Application.Pdf for application/pdf
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Application.Rtf for application/rtf
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Application.Soap for application/soap+xml
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Application.Zip for application/zip
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Image.Gif for image/gif
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Image.Jpeg for image/jpeg
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Image.Tiff for image/tiff
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Text.Html for text/html
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Text.Plain for text/plain
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Text.RichText for text/richtext
System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Text.Xml for text/xml
Update[12-Aug-2021]:
A new set of constants are now available in System.Net.Mime namespace. This namespace is part of System.Net.Mail.dll which is referenced by default whenever you create a new project targeting .NET v5. This DLL is part of .NET v5 (erstwhile .NET Core v5) release.
MediaTypeNames.Application.Json
MediaTypeNames.Application.Octet
MediaTypeNames.Application.Pdf
MediaTypeNames.Application.Rtf
MediaTypeNames.Application.Soap
MediaTypeNames.Application.Xml
MediaTypeNames.Application.Zip
MediaTypeNames.Image.Gif
MediaTypeNames.Image.Jpeg
MediaTypeNames.Image.Tiff
MediaTypeNames.Text.Html
MediaTypeNames.Text.Plain
MediaTypeNames.Text.RichText
MediaTypeNames.Text.Xml
Note: .NET v5 is not a new release of .NET Framework. Instead it is the next major release of .NET following .NET Core v3.1. .NET is new name of .NET Core. Core branding has been removed.
In the new ASP.NET Core MimeMapping can be used with the filename:
MimeMapping.GetMimeMapping("1.jpg")
Should return image/jpeg.
All the mappings can be found here and it is also possible to add your own (see e.g. this answer).
Here's the official on going list if interested
http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/media-types.xhtml
Please also check this amazing solution in below link (section "Using a static MIME Type Map"):
https://www.ryadel.com/en/get-file-content-mime-type-from-extension-asp-net-mvc-core/
You can simply use it like that:
var mineType=
MimeTypeMap.GetMimeType(System.IO.Path.GetExtension(submitted));
https://www.nuget.org/packages/MimeTypesMap/ is a great NuGet package for this. Use it like this:
MimeTypesMap.GetMimeType("filename.jpeg"); // => image/jpeg
or the other way:
MimeTypesMap.GetExtension("image/jpeg"); // => jpeg

How can I programmatically stop/start a windows service on a remote box?

I want to write a console or Click Once WinForms app that will programmatically stop and/or start a windows service on a remote box.
Both boxes are running .NET 3.5 - what .NET API's are available to accomplish this?
in C#:
var sc = new System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController("MyService", "MyRemoteMachine");
sc.Start();
sc.WaitForStatus(System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Running);
sc.Stop();
sc.WaitForStatus(System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Stopped);
You can also do this from a command console using the sc command:
sc <server> start [service name]
sc <server> stop [service name]
Use
sc <server> query | find "SERVICE_NAME"
to get a list of service names.
The option <server> has the form \\ServerName
Example
sc \\MyServer stop schedule will stop the Scheduler service.
ServiceController.
You need to have permission to administer the services on the remote box.
As Mehrdad says, you can also use WMI. Both methods work for start and stop, but WMI requires more coding and will give you more access to other resources
If you don't want to code it yourself, PsService by Microsoft/Sysinternals is a command line tool that does what you want.
You can use System.Management APIs (WMI) to control services remotely. WMI is the generic API to do administrative tasks.
For this problem, however, I suggest you to use the easier to use System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController class.
if you need to get the name of the Service:
run this from the command line:
sc query
You will see for example, that SQL Server's service name is 'MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS'.
So to stop the SQL Server service in C#:
ServiceController controller = new ServiceController();
controller.MachineName = "Machine1";
controller.ServiceName = "MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS";
if(controller.Status == ServiceControllerStatus.Running)
controller.Stop();
controller.WaitForStatus(ServiceControllerStatus.Stopped);
galets code snippet above is a great start. However, keep in mind it assumes that the service has already started, or, more importantly, that
sc.Status == System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Running
Also, it may important to, at some point during code execution, call
sc.Refresh();
because the properties values (such as ServiceControllerStatus) may not reflect the actual properties of the service.
For instance, you may call
sc.Start();
and wait indefinitely when this command executes
sc.WaitForStatus(System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Running)
Here is a version of this code that I coded with those considerations in mind.
//Restart Content Service on DEV.
String svcName = "TheServiceName";
String machineName = "TheMachineName";
var sc = new System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController(svcName, machineName);
Console.WriteLine("Stopping Service '{0}' on machine '{1}", svcName, machineName);
sc.Stop();
sc.WaitForStatus(System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Stopped);
//sc.WaitForStatus(System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Running);
do
{
try
{
sc.Refresh();
if (sc.Status == System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Running)
{
Console.WriteLine("Code has detected that servive start is pending, waiting 5 seconds to see if status changes..");
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000);
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("waiting 5 seconds and retrying start..");
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000);
Console.WriteLine("Attempt Starting Service '{0}' on machine '{1}", svcName, machineName);
sc.Start();
}
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
//If it is already running, then abort do while
if (ex.InnerException.Message == "An instance of the service is already running")
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.InnerException.Message);
continue;
}
Console.WriteLine(ex.InnerException.ToString());
}
} while (sc.Status != System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Running);
I have done like below:
Note:
If you didn't start your service if you are trying to stop it will throw exception.
If you configure these things in your web.config ,configuration related exception will not come. No need to do anything in IIS.
In Web.Config under <configuration>
<appSettings>
<add key="ServiceName" value="YourServiceName" />
<add key="MachineName" value="YourMachineName" />
</appSettings>
<system.web>
<authentication mode="Windows"/>
<identity impersonate="true" userName="YourUserName" password="YourPassword"/>
</system.web>
In My Service Class:
private void RestartService()
{
string serviceName = System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["ServiceName"];
string machineName = System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["MachineName"];
try
{
var service = new ServiceController(serviceName, machineName);
if (service.Status != ServiceControllerStatus.Stopped)
{
service.Stop();
service.WaitForStatus(System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Stopped);
}
service.Start();
service.WaitForStatus(System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Running);
}
catch (Exception)
{
}
}
Hope this Helps.
Here is a ServiceExtension that can Start and Stop Services on remote pc's.
And it can set the Startup type of the service, even to "automatic (delayed)"

You can start a service like this
using System.ServiceProcess;
serviceName = "the name of the service"
machineName = "the name of the remote/local host"
var service = new ServiceController(serviceName, machineName);
try
{
service.SetStartMode(ServiceStartModeEx.DelayedAutomatic);
service.Start();
}
finally
{
service.Close();
}
You can stop a service like this
var service = new ServiceController(serviceName, machineName);
try
{
if (service.CanStop)
{
service.SetStartMode(ServiceStartModeEx.Disabled);
service.Stop();
}
}
finally
{
service.Close();
}
To grant a user rights to start and stop a service on a remote pc you have to set some service rights, you can google what subinacl.exe is and where to download it.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Resource Kits\Tools>subinacl.exe /service SERVICENAME /grant=MACHINENAME\USERNAME=F
