Hey guys.
How can we find windows Temp folder in c# ?
Like this :
C:\Documents and Settings\Mds\Local Settings\Temp
Thanks in advance.

System.IO.Path.GetTempPath() should about do it

The previous answer is correct and is what I use but (for the sake of completeness) there's also
Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("TEMP");
or
Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("TMP");
<edit>Didn't see Giorgi's answer till after posting as it was on the next page!

Thanks a lot DaveyM69.
But I want to know is this correct :
Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("temp");
|
|

It works (tried on XP Pro SP3) so I guess the string parameter isn't case sensitive. They are saved however in upper case so it would be safer to pass it that way.
You can see all the variables by opening control panel and selecting System (or right click My Computer and chose properties). On the Advanced tab click the Environment Variables button.

I'm creating a simple remoting application on images and this is how my program goes. There's a server and there's a client and there's this DLL file that they commonly use so that they can communicate to each other remotely... The server contains the images. So when the client is executed, it contacts the server to get a specific image. So the request is successfuly sent to the server. The server found the image so it made use of the "Image theImage = Image.getFromFile('etc. etc.')" function.. it was successful, (i'm assuming the image now is in the "theImage" variable)... so the next thing the server to do now is to send the image back to the client to be displayed on a picture box... then BAAMM!! then the error popped out on the client side that "Native Image Not Found". How do i resolve this?

You'll want to be sending that image as a stream, then recreating a bitmap from that stream. It's quit simple really:
[server]
Bitmap img = new Bitmap(@"path");
Stream myStream = new MemoryStream();
img.Save(myStream, ImageFormat.Bmp);
...
[client]
Bitmap img = new Bitmap(myStream);
If this is what you'r already doing then err... I don't know. Sorry.

yup.. i sent it as stream.. cause i thought you can just pass image objects that easy.. anyways thanks for the help

You can try out this.
In Server,
1. Read the image from the file.
2. Save the image onto a MemoryStream object.
3. Get the buffer from the MemoryStream using GetBuffer() method, this method will return the bytes from the memory stream.
Now you send this byte array to the client.
Now In Client,
1. Create new MemoryStream object and write the byte array received from server onto the MemoryStream.
2. Create new Image object from the MemoryStream using Image.FromStream() method and use this image object in the PictureBox.

hi every body
i want know hot can i get the last word from string which inputed from user
example:

my question is how can i get "ttt.mp3" from the string
thanx every one

string txt = "some sample text";
string lastWord = txt.Substring(txt.LastIndexOf(" ")+1);
caveat: off the top of my head, not thoroughly unit-tested

Two ways I can think of immediately:
String.Split()
or
String.LastIndexOf() and String.Substring()

split the string into an array using a space as the delimiter and get the last element in the array
or
identify the last space in the string and get the trailing characters

System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Match(input, @"\S*$");
Edit: a better solution here[^].

Try this :
static void Main()
{
string temp = "my favorite song is ttt.mp3";
Console.WriteLine("Last word = {0}", Regex.Match(temp.Trim(), @"[^\s]*$" ).ToString() ) ;
Console.ReadKey();
}

Why burden the app with regex? Someone else gave what is, in my humble aopinion, a much better solution using LastIndexOf(" ").

You're right.
Thank you John.

In my humble opinion, the LastIndexOf(" ") solution will fail in case of other white space characters or if the string contains one word only. In fact an expression like @"\S*(?=\s*$)" would be better as it matches the last non-whitespace character combination in the string.

The OP's example CLEARLY indicatedc spaces were being used to separate words in a TextBox. What other kind of whitespace characters did you have in mind?
First, using RegEx obfuscates the intent of the code, and slows it down besides. I can count on ONE HAND the number of people I know that would use RegEx over the much simpler construct of LastIndexOf(). As soon as new programmers learn that readability and maintainability is much more important than "clever code", we'll all be a lot better off. Sure, RegEx has it's place, but not for this problem.
A valid example of requiring RegEx is validating that an email address is properly formatted. But for finding the last word in a string of words separated by spaces? Not on your life.

but the question stated
ahmedhassan96 wrote: hot can i get the last word from string which inputed from user
and he didn't explicitly mention the delimiter used.
Your post made me think of other white space characters such as Tab and NewLine (depends on how he gets the input string from the user). I'm aware that readability and maintainability is more important than clever code, and i wasn't trying to be clever. I just think a simple regex is much less in code than using LastIndexOfAny and handling the -1 return case.

It will be much more easy and simple to use 'lastindexof'
So you can use this:
string lastword;
int lastindex = str.LastIndexOf(" ")-1;
int len = str.Length;
if (lastindex == -1) //if there is only one word in the string
{
lastword = str;
}
else
{
lastword = str.Substring(lastindex, (len - lastindex));
}
//here str is the string from which last word has to be taken

Hey, I was wondering how I can send a file download after my class is complete.
I have a C# + ASP.NET site. I have a Button1_Click class. When that is run it copies some files, does some things and eventually creates a zip file. How do I send that zip file to the user as a download? E.G. I want it to
1) User clicks button
2) Server does what it needs to do
3) User gets a file download popup with the zip file that was created in step 2.
All I need help with is #3.
Thanks!!,
Anand
P.S. I've looked into Response.BinaryWrite but I'm not sure if that is it.
