Transfer any files on Web services by c#

We can use Microsoft SOAP protocol to transfer any files between a client and a server.

Introduction

We can use Microsoft SOAP protocol to transfer any files between a client and a server. It's easy through firewall and also it is cross flatform.

Background

I was going to develop a mobile software for Pocket PC but I found there were not enough resouces to use on mobile operating system. Finally, I found Web services can solve the problem.

Using the code

There are two parts on the sample which includes: a Windows client and Webservice server code. Both of these source codes are listed below.

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Text;

using System.IO;

    class TransferFile

    {

        public TransferFile() { }

 

    public string WriteBinarFile(byte[] fs, string path, string fileName)

    {

        try

        {

            MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream(fs);

            FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(path + fileName, FileMode.Create);

            memoryStream.WriteTo(fileStream);

            memoryStream.Close();

            fileStream.Close();

            fileStream = null;

            memoryStream = null;

            return "File has already uploaded successfully";

        }

        catch (Exception ex)

        {

            return ex.Message;

        }

    }

 
    /// getBinaryFile Return array of byte which you specified

    public byte[] ReadBinaryFile(string path,string fileName)

                FileStream fileStream = File.OpenRead(path + fileName);

                return ConvertStreamToByteBuffer(fileStream);

            }
