yes I did, but there is no articles on CodeProject about steganography using LSB and phase coding. I really confused about that.

Since you want to encrypt the message before embedding it into an audio file, your first step would be to get the encryption and decryption going. For that you'll find plenty of help from articles here.
From my understanding, embedding the cipher in the LSB's of an audio file should be rather trivial provided that you can find an audio library that permits you to manipulate the audio stream in that fashion (I'm no expert there). Have you looked for .NET audio libraries?

yes.. that's what I want
I need audio library to manipulate the audio stream, but I can't explain since the begining.
do you know the name of audio libraries on framework.NET (C#) ?
and how I can to use it ?
can you explain to me ?

As I said, I'm no expert for this. The only .NET audio library I know off the top of my head is this one: NAudio - Home[^]. But I don't know if it allows you to do what you want. You'll have to take a look at it. And if it doesn't, look for alternatives: .net audio library - Google Search[^]

What have you tried?
Where are you stuck?
What help do you need?
We aren't here to do it all for you - we'll help, but you need to show that you are trying as well, not just trying to get us to do your job for you! And so far, all you done is say what you want as a result...

no no I'm sorry about that, I don't mean like that. I was try to build application about steganography. It was use AES encryption and LSB technique and I had a problem on the extention of audio. The Cover audio is wav and midi but when I was insert chipertext into audio(midi) there is a problem with the code and so much the noise (the SNR is so weak)
this is my code: AES Encryption steganography cover audio using LSB technique

I am splitting this out and returning it as separate rows The delim is \r\n:
{[Report Criteria, Filter Criteria
:.Archived
: :.All
:.Request ID
: :.xxx
:.Group & Sort Criteria
:.Employee Name Ascending
:.Agency Org Ascending
Report Executed on : xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx UTC]}
Here is the code: I am going to replace rx with rx1, but rx1 does not have "rx1.MoveNext" look below
var rx = ((IEnumerable)e.Current).GetEnumerator();
IEnumerable enumerable;
var rx1 = (IEnumerable)rebuildReportCriteria(((IEnumerable)e.Current).GetEnumerator());
for (int j = 0; rx1.MoveNext(); j++)
{
object v = ((KeyValuePair<string, object>)rx.Current).Value;
string s = "", l = "";...................................
private static object rebuildReportCriteria(IEnumerator enumerator)
{
var list = new List<KeyValuePair<string, string>>();
string v = "";
for (int j = 0; enumerator.MoveNext(); j++)
{
v = ((KeyValuePair<string, object>)enumerator.Current).Key;
if (v == "Report Criteria")
{
string[] stringSeparators = new string[] { "\r\n" };
string[] lines = ((KeyValuePair<string, object>)enumerator.Current).Value.ToString().Split(stringSeparators, StringSplitOptions.None);
foreach (string s in lines)
{
list.Add(new KeyValuePair<string, string>(((KeyValuePair<string, object>)enumerator.Current).Key, ((KeyValuePair<string, object>)enumerator.Current).Value.ToString()));
}
}
}
if (v == "Report Criteria")
{
return list.GetEnumerator();
}
else
{
return enumerator;
}

Hi,
In my application I am in the process of writing I am building a string containing the result of a test and a comma to be saved out as a CSV file however a test can be re-triggered by accident, not an issue. The problem I have is that the re-triggering can lead to a result being added to the string. I have added a Boolean variable to see if its being re-triggered and if it is only add to the string once see below:
lblPumpMotorSpin_.BackColor = Color.Green;
if (ResultsRecordedOncePumpMotor == false)
{
Results += "Pump Motor OK,";
}
ResultsRecordedOncePumpMotor = true;
This then reset to false in the reset routine for the next attempt.
My thinking was this before it entered Reset() which was after the save routing it would be set to true so it would not enter the if(), but it does!
Any thoughts anyone??

What are they declared as?
Are Results and ResultsRecordedOncePumpMotor both static, or both class instance? Or a mix of the two?
If the test can be restarted while a test is in progress, then that implies multiple threads, so you probably want to cancel any running test before you start a new one - which would get rid of the need for the bool.
And a couple of style points:
1) You can use "!" instead of "== false"
if (!ResultsRecordedOncePumpMotor)
2) You shouldn't really add to strings, particularly to build large results sets. Since strings are immutable, each time you add two strings, you create a new longer one and copy both over. Use a StringBuilder instead and Append the data - it's a lot more efficient.

Umm Griff, do you know of a good string builder reference as I can create the string save the string like I could with a string, how can I search the string to find the last item added to it and if its the same don't append it?
Further reading has revealed the .Remove method, however I am not sure this would work as you have to know the exact location in the string, however if you placed a test loop after each function that talked to the string something like
int i=0;
foreach(string subString in sbResults(',')
i++
if( i >4)
{
MessageBox.Show("extra!");
sbResults.Remove(i,5);
}if the message was 5 long. Am I on to anything here??

StringBuilders don't have Contains, StartsWith, or EndsWith methods - so basically you can't search one.
What are you actually building up? Is this a single line of CSV data, or a file full, or what?

Sorry looks like you replied as I was updating my earlier response, I cannot type today for some reason. Its a single line of a CSV, some times the data can get duplicated via a switch...
|
|
|
|
|
I'd be tempted to say "sod that" and cheat!
Is the order important?
If not, then create a List<String> of elements to make up your CSV data, and use the Linq Method .Distinct to remove duplicates. Then String.Join to bolt 'em together with commas.
string csv = string.Join("," myList.Distinct());
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

The order is not really important, I am starting the record process from scratch. Thanks I will give it a look.

If threads are causing your duplicate, you're in even bigger trouble, since you are also accessing a Control property, something only the GUI thread is allowed to do.
IMO your code needs a big overhaul: use a model that holds your data, a view that takes care of the UI, and a separate object (or at least an explicit method) to create the output file(s) you need.
By not mixing it all up you'll avoid both illegal cross-thread Control accesses and the risk of duplicates in your CSV.

Thanks, I will give a look!

I would more likely keep a Dictionary or something to hold the items to be written, you can add an item more than once and it'll just overwrite the existing value, then format and write it once everything is ready.
A small class could easily be written to encapsulate Add, Write, Clear functions.

|
|
|
|
I'll look into that! Thanks

Hi.
Lemme try to be clear here.
I've a code, with two files: Form1.cs and Classes.cs
Classes.cs contains all my methods, variables, etc (and the FilesystemWatcher implementation).
Form1.cs (The main form) contains some button calls, and a call to FilesystemWatcher (when the button is pressed).
What i'm trying to accomplish and can't see to figure out is: Show a ProgressBar from this FilesystemWatcher.
Consider the following scenario: I Just clicked a button and FilesystemWatcher has started. It will monitor the folder and do operations over created files. How i'm gonna show the progress for that ?
On my readfiles() method (inside the Classes.cs) i've tought about passing a variable trough parameter that indicates how much of the file has been read - for so i would have to implement FilesystemWatcher in the Form1.cs. But the FilesystemWatcher calls all my methods.
His method on Classes.cs looks like:
SetupFileWatcher()
all other methods to convert files, etc...
Even if i move FilesystemWatcher to Form1 main code, he doesn't return any progress value - he just run methods as soon files are added.
Lemme try to show a piece of code (This happens at Classes.cs)
Implementing filesystem watcher on this method...
protected FileSystemWatcher SetupFileWatcher(string path)
FileSystemWatcher Call
public void ProgramProcessing(string filePath)
{
SetupFileWatcher(SelectedFolder);
InputFolderSelect();
ReadFiles();
FileDefinition();
ColorExtraction();
ColorValueExtraction();
DataGrouping();
NumberProcessing();
ColorPoolManipulation();
WriteInkzoneXML();
WriteColorPoolXML();
}
Now, this happens inside Form1.cs:
private void btnGo_Click_1(object sender, EventArgs e)
prg.ProgramProcessing(textBox1.Text);
How could i possibly achieve that ? Is it possible ? Al i would like is to show the progress for the operation (or at least the methods for reading files and write XML).
Thanks in advance for any help\guidance.
