In C# programs using the Excel Interop library,
the Range.get_Address(...) method seems to return a relative address only if R1C1 format is specified. Does the library provide a simple way to get relative A1-style addresses?
There's no one-liner as far as I know, but the following code should return the answer you're looking for:
Range rng1 = app.get_Range("C3");
Range rng2 = app.get_Range("D10");
string relativeAddress = rng2.get_Offset(-1, -1).get_Address(RowAbsolute:false, ColumnAbsolute:false, ReferenceStyle:XlReferenceStyle.xlR1C1, RelativeTo: rng1);
string s = app.ConvertFormula(relativeAddress, XlReferenceStyle.xlR1C1, XlReferenceStyle.xlA1, false);

When editing a vertex I would like to substitute the vertex symbol with SimpleMarkerSymbol and a TextSymbol but that appears to be impossible. Any suggestions on how I could do this? I want the appearance of dragging something like this (text + circle):
After taking some time to look at the API I've come to the conclusion it is impossible. Here is my workaround:
editor.on("vertex-move", args => {
let map = this.options.map;
let g = <Graphic>args.vertexinfo.graphic;
let startPoint = <Point>g.geometry;
let tx = args.transform;
let endPoint = map.toMap(map.toScreen(startPoint).offset(tx.dx, tx.dy));
// draw a 'cursor' as a hack to render text over the active vertex
if (!cursor) {
cursor = new Graphic(endPoint, new TextSymbol({text: "foo"}));
this.layer.add(cursor);
} else {
cursor.setGeometry(endPoint);
cursor.draw();
}
})
You could use a TextSymbol to create a point with font type having numbers inside the circle. Here is one place where you can find such font. http://www.fontspace.com/the-fontsite/combinumerals
Wont be exactly as shown in the image but close enough. Also some limitation it wont work with IE9 or lower (this is as per esri documentation, as I am using halo to get the white border).
Here is the working Jsbin : http://jsbin.com/hayirebiga/edit?html,output use point of multipoint
PS: I have converted the ttf to otf and then added the font as base64, which is optional. I did it as I could not add the ttf or otf to jsbin.
Well, Achieve this seems impossible so far however ArcGIS JS API provides a new Application/platform where you can generate single symbol online for your applications.
We can simply create all kind of symbols(Provide by ESRI) online and it gives you on the fly code which you just need to paste in your application.
This will help us to try different type of suitable symbols for the applications.

Hoping this will help you :)
I am working on a first Slickgrid MVC application where the column definition and format is to be stored in a database. I can retrieve the list of columns quite happily and populate them until I ran into the issue with formatting of dates. No problem - for each date (or time) column I can store a formatter name in the database so this can be retrieved as well. I'm using the following code which works ok:
CLOP_ViewColumnsDataContext columnDB = new CLOP_ViewColumnsDataContext();
var results = from u in columnDB.CLOP_VIEW_COLUMNs
select u;
List<dynColumns> newColumns = new List<dynColumns>();
foreach(CLOP_VIEW_COLUMN column in results)
{
newColumns.Add(new dynColumns
{
id = column.COLUMN_NUMBER.ToString(),
name = column.HEADING.Trim(),
field = column.VIEW_FIELD.Trim(),
width = column.WIDTH,
formatter = column.FORMATTER.Trim()
});
}
var gridColumns = new JavaScriptSerializer().Serialize(newColumns);
This is all fine apart from the fomatter. An example of the variable gridColumns is:
[{"id":"1","name":"Date","field":"SCHEDULED_DATE","width":100,"formatter":"Slick.Formatters.Date"},{"id":"2","name":"Carrier","field":"CARRIER","width":50,"formatter":null}]
Which doesn't look too bad however the application the fails with the error Microsoft JScript runtime error: Function expected in the slick.grid.js script
Any help much appreciated - even if there is a better way of doing this!
You are assigning a string to the formatter property, wich is expected to be function.
Try:
window["Slick"]["Formatters"]["Date"];
But i really think you should reconsider doing it this way and instead store your values in the db and define your columns through code.
It will be easier to maintain and is less error prone.
What if you decide to use custom editors and formatters, which you later rename?
Then your code will break or you'll have to rename all entries in the db as well as in code.
I am using
URL res = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource(dictionaryPath);
String path = res.getPath();
String path2 = path.substring(1);
because the output of the method getPath() returns sth like this:
/C:/Users/......
and I need this
C:/Users....
I really need the below address because some external library refuses to work with the slash at the beginning or with file:/ at the beginning or anything else.
I tried pretty much all the methods in URL like toString() toExternalPath() etc. and done the same with URI and none of it returns it like I need it. (I totally don't understand, why it keeps the slash at the beginning).
It is okay to do it on my machine with just erasing the first char. But a friend tried to run it on linux and since the addresses are different there, it does not work...
What should with such problem?
Convert the URL to a URI and use that in the File constructor:
URL res = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource(dictionaryPath);
File file = new File(res.toURI());
String fileName = file.getPath();
As long as UNIX paths are not supposed to contain drive letters, you may try this:
URL res = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource(dictionaryPath);
String path = res.getPath();
char a_char = text.charAt(2);
if (a_char==':') path = path.substring(1);
Convert to a URI, then use Paths.get().
URL res = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource(dictionaryPath);
String path = Paths.get(res.toURI()).toString();
You could probably just format the string once you get it.
something like this:
path2= path2[1:];
I was searching for one-line solution, so the best what i came up with was deleting it manually like this:
String url = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource(dictionaryPath).getPath().replaceFirst("/","");
In case if someone also needs to have it on different OS, you can make IF statement with
System.getProperty("os.name");
I have path Manipulation problem. The following code is placed in Page_load method of ASPx page.
String rName = Request.QueryString["reportName"];
string path = "C:\\hari" + rName;
if (File.Exists(path))
{
File.Delete(path);
}
But Fortify scan report for the above sample code shows ‘Path Manipulation’ issue as high
Need help to modify above code so that it can pass fortify scan
Jackson is right, this is a direct File Path Manipulation vulnerability that can be fixed through indirect selection.
From your known directory, list all the files. Use the value coming from your own directory list, not the user-supplied value.
String rName = Request.QueryString["reportName"];
String knownPath = "C:\\hari";
DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(knownPath);
FileInfo[] files = di.GetFiles(rName);
if (files.length > 0)
{
files[0].Delete();
}
I think the problem is that someone could spoof a request with reportName = "..\\Windows\\Something important" which is clearly a security flaw. You need to change your code so that it doesn't read a partial filename from the request query string.
I have a database file that I beleive was created with Clipper but can't say for sure (I have .ntx files for indexes which I understand is what Clipper uses). I am trying to create a C# application that will read this database using the System.Data.OleDB namespace.
For the most part I can sucessfully read the contents of the tables there is one field that I cannot. This field called CTRLNUMS that is defined as a CHAR(750). I have read various articles found through Google searches that suggest field larger than 255 chars have to be read through a different process than the normal assignment to a string variable. So far I have not been successful in an approach that I have found.
The following is a sample code snippet I am using to read the table and includes two options I used to read the CTRLNUMS field. Both options resulted in 238 characters being returned even though there is 750 characters stored in the field.
Here is my connection string:
Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\datadir;Extended Properties=DBASE IV;
Can anyone tell me the secret to reading larger fields from a DBF file?
using (OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection(connectionString))
{
conn.Open();
using (OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand())
{
cmd.Connection = conn;
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.CommandText = string.Format("SELECT ITEM,CTRLNUMS FROM STUFF WHERE ITEM = '{0}'", stuffId);
using (OleDbDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader())
{
if (dr.Read())
{
stuff.StuffId = dr["ITEM"].ToString();
// OPTION 1
string ctrlNums = dr["CTRLNUMS"].ToString();
// OPTION 2
char[] buffer = new char[750];
int index = 0;
int readSize = 5;
while (index < 750)
{
long charsRead = dr.GetChars(dr.GetOrdinal("CTRLNUMS"), index, buffer, index, readSize);
index += (int)charsRead;
if (charsRead < readSize)
{
break;
}
}
}
}
}
}
You can find a description of the DBF structure here: http://www.dbf2002.com/dbf-file-format.html
What I think Clipper used to do was modify the Field structure so that, in Character fields, the Decimal Places held the high-order byte of the size, so Character field sizes were really 256*Decimals+Size.
I may have a C# class that reads dbfs (natively, not ADO/DAO), it could be modified to handle this case. Let me know if you're interested.
Are you still looking for an answer? Is this a one-off job or something that needs doing regularly?
I have a Python module that is primarily intended to extract data from all kinds of DBF files ... it doesn't yet handle the length_high_byte = decimal_places hack, but it's a trivial change. I'd be quite happy to (a) share this with you and/or (b) get a copy of such a DBF file for testing.
Added later: Extended-length feature added, and tested against files I've created myself. Offer to share code with anyone who would like to test it still stands. Still interested in getting some "real" files myself for testing.
3 suggestions that might be worth a shot...
1 - use Access to create a linked table to the DBF file, then use .Net to hit the table in the access database instead of going direct to the DBF.
2 - try the FoxPro OLEDB provider
3 - parse the DBF file by hand. Example is here.
My guess is that #1 should work the easiest, and #3 will give you the opportunity to fine tune your cussing skills. :)
