Hello everyone,
I have a Setup project with several UI forms for my application. At the moment I'm trying to create an unattended version of this installation. I pass all the parameters through a command line.
The UI forms are: TextBox(A) and Installation Address.
The thing is that I have a problem with changing the Virtual directory of the Setup project. It's pre-set in in properties window of Web Application Folder of Setup Project's File System. And no matter what I pass as the parameter for Virtual Directory, it gets overwritten by this default value(one that pre-set in properties window). Apparently this happens after the Custom Actions stage.
Is it correct that I not able to change the virtual directory through the command line? Or is there a way to do it?
And is there any way to set the default value for virtual directory programmatically(by code) after processing the CustomActionData parameters in Install Class?
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Igor

One solution is to make the container directory virtual and then change the web.config to restrict access to the file and/or the directory

But i should pass the credentials in code and i should download a file instead of showing credentials to the user

There is no difference. You get a handle to a file and pass that to the player; if the MP3 is in a resource then you will need to create a temporary file or find some way to stream the data to the player. Check the documentation for the player(s) to see what options are available.

I don't want my mp3 file accessible to anyone else.
I want to do the following in VisualStudio C#:
1. Right click my project and select -->Add Existing Item. Select my mp3 file.
2. Then in the Properties of my mp3 file change the Build Action to "Embedded Resource".
This now means that my mp3 file is contained inside my exe whenever its built.
But now I don't know how to access this mp3 file to played it. I can access (bitmaps ,gif, wave file) when they are embedded by using the code at the bottom my original post but it does not seem to work when I use it for the mp3 file.
Do you understand what my problem is?? Do you know how to solve it??
and this is the cod :
(for Images)
System.Drawing.Bitmap bitmap1 = resource.Properties.Resources.gif//(or bitmaps);
pictureBox1.Image = resource.Properties.Resources.gif;
(for wav)
SoundPlayer sndplayr = new SoundPlayer(resource.Properties.Resources.wav //(here mp3 not played ));
sndplayr.Play();
who can help me with it please ... i look for it but cant find any help ...

I want to check while the form load. if the user id is null i want to close the current page and open the login page. I know how to do it in web application. i am new to desktop application. so need help....

You can take some application label variable for storing USerID at the time of login
|

I assume you mean that as your program loads, you need to detect if there is a user id stored on the machine, and if so, treat them as logged in to your program. If not, then load the login screen before they get to see the main form.
Look at program.cs - the Main method is the one which starts your application. In there, check the user id, and if present, continue as normal. If not, bring up your login screen in the same way that the existing code shows the main form.
You can use the app.Config file to store the log-in info: open your projects "Properties" tree node in the Solution Explorer pane, and double click on "settings.settings". You can add a new item there (call it UserId) and retrieve it in your code with "Properties.Settings.Default.mySettingName"

Hi,
I use a mediaelement control in my wpf project to play videos. When I suddenly pause the video, sometimes a black screen occurs. can any one tell why this happens? It occurs in windows xp while it doesnt show up in windows7. Is this because of some codec problem? Please help...
Thanks,

need to add GUID for each photos that users had uploaded. I had created a virtual directory in IIS to store the images that users had uploaded.
The coding is
string strImage = "";
if (!File.Exists) (Server.MapPath("D:/Virtual Directory")));
if(FileUpload1.HasFile)
{
strImage = FileUpload1.FileName.ToString();
FileUpload1.SaveAs (Server.MapPath("D:/Virtual Directory/" + FileUpload1.FileName.ToString()));
}
//produces a "blank GUID"
System.Guid blankGuid = new System.Guid();
//produces a new, unique GUID
System.Guid desiredGuid = System.Guid.NewGuid();
Can someone tell me if there is any error in my code and how do I store the pictures in the virtual directory

It depends on what you are trying to achieve, just upload a random image for display (use a folder per user so the user can overwrite the file and no more id is required) or some more complex use.
I used the id from an identity field (I hate guids) concatenated with the original file name and rather than basing it on if the file existed I based the decision on the data record (I need a record of the file in the database).

Of what - concatenating the id with the file name - simple string concatenation.
First save the record to the database and get the ID value from the returned value or record,
create the filename string using string.format("{0}{1}",ID,filename) then update the record with the filename string.
There are a number of ways to do this in one transaction in the database if performance is an issue (I have a limited requirement and the extra call to do the update is inconsequential).
Then write the file to the virtual folder or rename the already written file.

I had something like this but how do I link to the database?

Ah my mistake - I am so database centric that I assume everyone is.
If you have no requirement to use a database then why do you need it. You need to look at your design requirements. I think you need to look at your design!
What is your goal in uploading images?
Can each user manage their own images (separate folder or prefix with user key)?
Why do you need a GUID in the first place?

I need to use database to store all the images as well as a virtual directory becuase I need to host to the web in the future. I need GUID to uniquly identified a image so no two images will have the same name.

You don't need a database just because you want to write a web app, they can use the file system too (only within the IIS web root but that is fine).

Uh, just use the System.IO classes like you would in a normal application, and make sure that you're looking in a folder for which you have set up permissions,
