Hints for Minimizing Size of Windows CE 6.0 EXE in Visual Studio 2008
Chilkat continues to support (and will continue to support for many years to come) older development environments and platforms. The C++ lib for Windows CE (specifically for VS2008) is one such case. The size of the EXE in this environment can matter. Here is one customer’s helpful hints on how to reduce the size of […]
The .NET Assembly “Incorrect Format” Error
If you get this error in a Windows Forms project… Look in your Project–>Properties (ALT+F7) and go to the “Build” tab. You’ll see the “Platform target” – If it’s set to “x64”, then make sure you reference the 64-bit Chilkat assembly. – If it’s set to “x86”, then make sure you reference the 32-bit Chilkat […]
Chilkat .NET Assemblies – Matching Visual Studio versions to .NET Framework Versions to VC++ Runtime Versions.
The .NET Framework version that corresponds to each Visual Studio release is as follows: VS2022 — .NET 4.8 VS2019 — .NET 4.8 VS2017 — .NET 4.6, .NET 4.7 VS2015 — .NET 4.6 VS2013 — .NET 4.5 (actually 4.5.1, but we only care about major/minor numbers) VS2012 — .NET 4.5 VS2010 — .NET 4.0 VS2008 […]
C Language Callbacks
This example demonstrates the general pattern for implementing some standard event callbacks functions for the Chilkat “C” API. All Chilkat “classes” what have events will use the standard Chilkat events shown in the example below (AbortCheck, PercentDone, and ProgressInfo). This example demonstrates callbacks for an SFTP download, but the same technique applies to any other […]
v9.5.0.57 Update: New Features, Fixes, Changes, etc.
Ruby: This version is only for the Ruby builds. Specifically, the Windows Ruby builds were invalid because of a build issue.
v9.5.0.56 Update: New Features, Fixes, Changes, etc.
Stream: Added a Stream class to be utilized more heavily in the future. StreamConnector: Added the StreamConnector class for .NET to allow for System.IO.Stream’s to be used with Chilkat.Stream. See http://www.example-code.com/csharp/stream_connector_cs.asp Crypt2: Added the EncryptStream and DecryptStream methods. Compression: Added the CompressStream and DecompressStream methods. JSON: Added the JsonObject and JsonArray classes. Zip: Memory leak […]
C# SFTP Upload from Byte[]
This example demonstrates how to open a remote file on an SSH/SFTP server, write to the file, and then close it. This is analogous to opening a local file, writing to it, and closing it. The SFTP protocol (i.e. Secure File Transfer over SSH), follows the same concepts as typical file I/O programming — i.e. […]
v9.5.0.55 Update: New Features, Fixes, Changes, etc.
Crypt2: Added the chacha20 and Poly1305 Message Authentication Code. Crypt2: Added AES GCM encryption. Zip: Fixed a problem with OpenZipAsync where the 1st call would succeed, but subsequent calls would fail. Email: Email.SaveXml did not save BCC recipients. Crypt2 (blowfish): When Chilkat originally implemented blowfish (more than 10 years ago), there was a problem having […]
Dynamically Loading a 32-bit or 64-bit .NET Assembly at Runtime
The Chilkat .NET assembly is a mixed-mode assembly, meaning that it exposes a managed API, but the inner core is native. Therefore, as for any DLL, a 32-bit process must load a 32-bit DLL, and a 64-bit process must load a 64-bit DLL. On a 32-bit system, there is never any choice and therefore this […]
