TortoiseSVN provides a COM interface for retrieving information about a file.
Using VBA, I can get information about a file in the SVN repository by doing this:
Public Function getSvnURL(ByVal fullFilename As String)
Dim oSvn As Object
Set oSvn = CreateObject("SubWCRev.Object")
oSvn.GetWCInfo fullFilename, 1, 1
getSvnURL = oSvn.url
End Function
If I have an SVN revision number however, is there an API I can use to get the files that were part of that commit? Something like:
Public Function getFilesInRevision(revisionNumber As Integer) as Collection
Dim oSvn As Object
Set oSvn = CreateObject("SubWCRev.Object")
oSvn.GetWCInfo revisionNumber
getFilesInRevision= oSvn.fileList
End Function
I ended up using the following method:
Public Function getFilesForRevision(revisionNumber As Long, folder As String) As Collection
Dim command As String
command = "svn log -v -q -r " & revisionNumber & " " & folder
Dim rawText As String
rawText = ShellRun(command)
Dim lines() As String
lines = Split(rawText, vbLf)
Set getFilesForRevision = New Collection
Dim filenameRegex As Object
Set filenameRegex = CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp")
filenameRegex.Pattern = "\s{3}.\s(.*)"
Dim line As Variant
For Each line In lines
If filenameRegex.test(line) Then
getFilesForRevision.Add (filenameRegex.Execute(line).Item(0).submatches(0))
End If
Next line
End Function
Which relies on this method to run the command and store the console output:
'http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2784367/capture-output-value-from-a-shell-command-in-vba
Public Function ShellRun(sCmd As String) As String
'Run a shell command, returning the output as a string'
Dim oShell As Object
Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
'run command'
Dim oExec As Object
Dim oOutput As Object
Set oExec = oShell.Exec(sCmd)
Set oOutput = oExec.StdOut
'handle the results as they are written to and read from the StdOut object'
Dim s As String
Dim sLine As String
While Not oOutput.AtEndOfStream
sLine = oOutput.ReadLine
If sLine <> "" Then s = s & sLine & vbCrLf
Wend
ShellRun = s
End Function
Which can be called like this:
Sub getFilesForRevisionTest()
Dim files As Collection
Set files = getFilesForRevision(111041, "C:\SVN\")
Dim fullFilename As Variant
For Each fullFilename In files
Debug.Print fullFilename
Next fullFilename
End Sub

I want to split a string - which includes multiple lines - into new strings.
As it seems that people dont understand my problem here some further informations:
I read out values into strings from a XML-file. Some of those strings countain multiple lines. Now I need every single value of that string on a new string(variable) so that I can tell Homer to drink a beer and tell Lenny to go to bed and not tell the whole Team to go to bed. (Hopefully this story helps you :D )
To keep this simple I'll define a "static" string for this sample.
I'll put 3 of my tries down below. I'd love to hear what's wrong with them. I also tried it with lists and enums where I could split the string but no define a new one..
But I assume that there is a much easier solution for my problem...
Dim team As String = "Simpson, Homer" & vbCrLf & "Leonard, Lenny" & vbCrLf & "Carlson, Carl"
1.
Dim objReader As New StringReader(team)
Dim tm() As String
Dim i As Integer = 1
Do While objReader.Peek() <> -1
tm(i) = objReader.ReadLine() & vbNewLine
i = i + 1
Loop
Dim i As Integer = 0
For Each Line As String In team.Split(New [Char]() {CChar(vbTab)})
Dim tm(i) As String = ReadLine(team, i)
i = i + 1
Next
3.
Dim tm() As String
Dim i As Integer = 0
Dim objReader As New StringReader(team)
Do While objReader.Peek() <> -1
tm(i) = ReadLine(team, i)
i = i + 1
Loop
And the function used in 2. and 3.
Public Function ReadLine(ByVal sFile As String, Optional ByVal nLine As Long = 1) As String
Dim sLines() As String
Dim oFSO As Object
Dim oFile As Object
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If oFSO.FileExists(sFile) Then
oFile = oFSO.OpenTextFile(sFile)
sLines = Split(oFile.ReadAll, vbCrLf)
oFile.Close()
Select Case Math.Sign(nLine)
Case 1
ReadLine = sLines(nLine - 1)
Case -1
ReadLine = sLines(UBound(sLines) + nLine + 1)
End Select
End If
ErrHandler:
oFile = Nothing
oFSO = Nothing
End Function
Thanks in advance for any shared thoughts.
There is in fact an easy solution for my problem. Sorry if I caused confusion.
Module Module1
Dim team As String = "Simpson, Homer" & vbCrLf & "Leonard, Lenny" & vbCrLf & "Carlson, Carl"
Sub Main()
Dim tm As String() = team.Split(vbLf)
'Test
Console.WriteLine(tm(0)) 'Homer
Console.WriteLine(tm(1)) 'Lenny
Console.WriteLine(tm(2)) 'Carl
End Sub

I have a situation when I am trying to run a rs.exe to run my report (with parameter).
I am using this bat script below:
"\\server\R\subfolder\working\app\rs.exe" -i \\server\R\subfolder\working\inputfile\coo.rss -s "http://server/ReportServer_MSSQLSERVER2" -v FILENAME="\\server\R\subfolder\working\inputfile\file.csv" -v REPORTSERVER_FOLDER="/FILE_REPORT/FILE" -v Inputfile='DocType' -t -v FORMAT="EXCEL" -e Exec2005
In the above bat script (names coo.bat), I hard coded report parameter (which isInputfile='DocType) and I then referenced this in report service script below:
Public Sub Main()
Dim separators As String = " "
Dim Commands As String = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Command()
DIm inputid As string
Dim args() As String = Commands.Split(separators.ToCharArray)
Dim argcount As Integer = 0
For Each x As String In args
argcount += 1
Next
inputid = args(0).ToUpper
TRY
DIM deviceInfo as string = Nothing
DIM extension as string = Nothing
DIM encoding as string
DIM mimeType as string = "application/Excel"
DIM warnings() AS Warning = Nothing
DIM streamIDs() as string = Nothing
DIM results() as Byte
rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials
rs.LoadReport(REPORTSERVER_FOLDER, inputid)
results = rs.Render(FORMAT, deviceInfo, extension, mimeType, encoding, warnings, streamIDs)
DIM stream As FileStream = File.OpenWrite(FILENAME)
stream.Write(results, 0, results.Length)
stream.Close()
Catch e As IOException
Console.WriteLine(e.Message)
End Try
End Sub
But, whenever I execute the coo.bat, I keep getting :Unhandled exception:The parameter value provided for 'snapshotID' does not match the parameter type.
I will appreciate your inputs.
I finally found the solution. Please see the edited code
Public Sub Main()
Dim separators As String = " "
Dim Commands As String = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Command()
Dim args() As String = Commands.Split(separators.ToString)
'Report Parameters
Dim parameters(1) As ParameterValue
parameters(0) = New ParameterValue()
parameters(0).Name = "Inputfile"
parameters(0).Value =Inputfile

DIM historyID as string = Nothing
DIM deviceInfo as string = Nothing
DIM extension as string = Nothing
DIM encoding as string
DIM mimeType as string = "application/Excel"
DIM warnings() AS Warning = Nothing
DIM streamIDs() as string = Nothing
DIM results() as Byte
rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials
rs.LoadReport(REPORTSERVER_FOLDER,historyID )
rs.SetExecutionParameters(parameters, "en-us")
results = rs.Render(FORMAT, deviceInfo, extension, mimeType, encoding, warnings, streamIDs)
DIM stream As FileStream = File.OpenWrite(FILENAME)
stream.Write(results, 0, results.Length)
stream.Close()
Catch e As IOException
Console.WriteLine(e.Message)

I have a text file with some lines of text in it.
I want to loop through each line until an item that I want is found*, then display it on the screen, in the form of a label.
*I am searching for the item through a textbox.
That is, in sudo:
For i = 0 To number of lines in text file
If txtsearch.text = row(i).text Then
lbl1.text = row(i).text
Next i
You can use the File.ReadLines Method in order to iterate throughout your file, one line at a time. Here is a simple example:
Dim Term As String = "Your term"
For Each Line As String In File.ReadLines("Your file path")
If Line.Contains(Term) = True Then
' Do something...Print the line
Exit For
End If
Next
Here's a function that will spit back your string from the row that contains your search term...
Public Shared Function SearchFile(ByVal strFilePath As String, ByVal strSearchTerm As String) As String
Dim sr As StreamReader = New StreamReader(strFilePath)
Dim strLine As String = String.Empty
Try
Do While sr.Peek() >= 0
strLine = String.Empty
strLine = sr.ReadLine
If strLine.Contains(strSearchTerm) Then
sr.Close()
Exit Do
End If
Loop
Return strLine
Catch ex As Exception
Return String.Empty
End Try
End Function
To use the function you can do this...
Dim strText As String = SearchFile(FileName, SearchTerm)
If strText <> String.Empty Then
Label1.Text = strText
End If

This is going to be a long one, but easy fix.
So i've manage to convert a pdf to string, then able to print an external pdf simply by putting the name of the file in a textbox.
I've also figured how to extract certain text from the pdf string, now the certain text are also files located in an external location (I use c:\temp\ for testing).
Which leaves me with one problem, the text I extract, I use shellexecute to print, works fine if its one string. however, If the file name I extract is more than one it will count it as a single string, thus adding the location and .pdf to that one string. instead of the two or more strings. which will do something like this:
As you can see, it will send that to the printer. I want to send one at a time to the printer. like this:
I've tried using an Arraylist and various methods. but my own lack of knowledge, I cannot figure it out.
I'm thinking a "for loop" will help me out. any ideas?
Below is my code.
Dim pdffilename As String = Nothing
pdffilename = RawTextbox.Text
Dim filepath = "c:\temp\" & RawTextbox.Text & ".pdf"
Dim thetext As String
thetext = GetTextFromPDF(filepath) ' converts pdf to text from a function I didnt show.
Dim re As New Regex("[\t ](?<w>((asm)|(asy)|(717)|(ssm)|(715)|(818))[a-z0-9]*)[\t ]", RegexOptions.ExplicitCapture Or RegexOptions.IgnoreCase Or RegexOptions.Compiled) ' This filters out and extract certain keywords from the PDF
Dim Lines() As String = {thetext}
Dim words As New List(Of String)
For Each s As String In Lines
Dim mc As MatchCollection = re.Matches(s)
For Each m As Match In mc
words.Add(m.Groups("w").Value)
Next
RawRich4.Text = String.Join(Environment.NewLine, words.ToArray)
Next
'This is where I need help with the code. how to have "words" putout "c:\temp\" & RawRich4.Text & ".pdf" with each keyword name
Dim rawtoprint As String = String.Join(Environment.NewLine, words.ToArray)
Dim defname As String = Nothing
defname = RawRich4.Text
rawtoprint = "c:\temp\" & RawRich4.Text & ".pdf"
Dim psi As New System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo()
psi.UseShellExecute = True
psi.Verb = "print"
psi.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
psi.Arguments = PrintDialog1.PrinterSettings.PrinterName.ToString()
psi.FileName = (rawtoprint) ' this is where the error occurs it doesn't send both files separately to the printer, it tries to send it as one name
MessageBox.Show(rawtoprint) ' This is just to test the output, this will be removed.
'Process.Start(psi)
End Sub
Updated.
Imports System.Text.RegularExpressions
Module Program
Sub Main()
Dim pdffilename As String = RawTextbox.Text
Dim filepath = "c:\temp\" & RawTextbox.Text & ".pdf"
Dim thetext As String
thetext = GetTextFromPDF(filepath) ' converts pdf to text from a function I didnt show.
'thetext = "Random text here and everywhere ASM00200207 1 1 same here bah boom 12303 doh hel232 ASM00200208 1 2 "
Dim pattern As String = "(?i)[\t ](?<w>((asm)|(asy)|(717)|(ssm)|(715)|(818))[a-z0-9]*)[\t ]"
For Each m As Match In rgx.Matches(thetext, pattern)
'Console.WriteLine("C:\temp\" & Trim(m.ToString) & ".pdf")
RawPrintFunction("C:\temp\" & Trim(m.ToString) & ".pdf")
Next
End Sub
Function RawPrintFunction(ByVal rawtoprint As String) As Integer
Dim psi As New System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo()
psi.UseShellExecute = True
psi.Verb = "print"
psi.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
psi.Arguments = PrintDialog1.PrinterSettings.PrinterName.ToString()
MessageBox.Show(rawtoprint) This will be removed, this is just for testing to see what files will be printed
'Process.Start(psi) This will be uncomment.
return 0
End Function
End Module
If I don't misunderstand the code -since I can't test and run it here- you can iterate through file names stored in words variable and send it to printer. Following is an example on how to do that :
....
....
Dim Lines() As String = {thetext}
Dim words As New List(Of String)
For Each s As String In Lines
Dim mc As MatchCollection = re.Matches(s)
For Each m As Match In mc
words.Add(m.Groups("w").Value)
Next
RawRich4.Text = String.Join(Environment.NewLine, words.ToArray)
Next
For Each fileName As String In words
Dim rawtoprint As String
rawtoprint = "c:\temp\" & fileName & ".pdf"
Dim psi As New System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo()
psi.UseShellExecute = True
psi.Verb = "print"
psi.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
psi.Arguments = PrintDialog1.PrinterSettings.PrinterName.ToString()
psi.FileName = (rawtoprint) ' this is where the error occurs it doesn't send both files separately to the printer, it tries to send it as one name
MessageBox.Show(rawtoprint) ' This is just to test the output, this will be removed.
'Process.Start(psi)

I currently have these directories:
C:\testfolder\100
C:\testfolder\101
C:\testfolder\102
and I have these files in the same directory:
C:\testfolder\file-100.txt
C:\testfolder\file-101.txt
C:\testfolder\file-102.txt
What I was trying to do in VB is move text file file-100.txt to the 100 directory. Same for text file file-101.txt, move it to its pertaining folder 101.
My question is how can I write a loop so that my program matches part of the string of my text file name and move it to the matching folder name? Moving one file at a time wouldn't be effecient since I have hundreds of directories and files to apply this to.
Edit:
I'm somewhat familiar with VB. I was having trouble with the logical part of this, in which I couldn't think of a way to write a loop so that it can transfer the files for me.
Without error checking, this would be a simple routine to move those files. It's based on your file names being consistent:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim homePath As String = "c:\testfolder"
Dim files() As String = Directory.GetFiles(homePath, "*.txt")
For Each f As String In files
Dim fileName As String = Path.GetFileName(f)
Dim destPath As String = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(fileName)
destPath = destPath.Split("-")(1)
destPath = Path.Combine(homePath, destPath)
Dim destFile As String = Path.Combine(destPath, fileName)
File.Move(f, destFile)
Next
End Sub
This just gets the list of text files in your directory, parses the file name to get just the number value (100, 101, etc), and then reconstructs the new path. It assumes the directories exist, too.
You can use regular expression to find matched pattern
Dim dir As String = "C:\testfolder\"
Dim fileList() As String = {"C:\testfolder\file-100.txt", _
"C:\testfolder\file-101.txt", _
"C:\testfolder\file-102.txt"}
Dim pattern As New Regex(Replace(dir, "\", "\\") & "file-([0-9]+)[.]txt")
For Each value As String In fileList
Dim match As Match = pattern.Match(value)
If match.Success Then
MsgBox("move from " & dir & " to " & dir & match.Groups(1).Value)
End If
Next
Make sure you have import RegularExpressions.
Imports System.Text.RegularExpressions
Private Sub organizeFiles(ByVal folderPath As String)
For Each filePath As String In Directory.GetFiles(folderPath, "*.txt")
Dim destinationFilePath As String = getDestinationFilePath(filePath)
If destinationFilePath IsNot Nothing Then
File.Move(filePath, destinationFilePath)
End If
Next
End Sub
Private Function getDestinationFilePath(ByVal filePath As String) As String
Const fileNamePrefix As String = "file-"
Dim fileName As String = Path.GetFileName(filePath)
Dim fileNameWithoutExtension As String = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(filePath)
If Not fileNameWithoutExtension.StartsWith(fileNamePrefix) Then
Return Nothing
End If
Dim folderName As String = fileNameWithoutExtension.Substring(fileNamePrefix.Length)
Dim fileFolderPath As String = Path.GetDirectoryName(filePath)
Dim destinationFolderPath As String = Path.Combine(fileFolderPath, folderName)
Dim destinationFilePath As String = Path.Combine(destinationFolderPath, fileName)
Return destinationFilePath
End Function
