I have a saved Google Onhub diagnostic report. With Notepad I can't see the whole file, because it's encrypted. A Hex-Editor won't open it neither.
Can someone tell me if there is a program to open it correctly?
Thank you!
It's a protobuf encoded file, containing an archive of files and other data entries.
There's a Go project on github that decodes it, and even if you don't run their Go code, you can use the protobuf schema that's available in that repository to decode the report in whichever environment you choose using the protobuf bindings available in the official website

I want to provide support to convert single-page and multi-page tiff files into PDFs. There is an executable in Bit Miracle's LibTiff.NET called Tiff2Pdf.
How do I use Tiff2Pdf in my application to convert tiff data stream (not a file) into a pdf data stream (not a file)?
I do not know if there is an API exposed because the documentation only lists Tiff2Pdf as a tool. I also do not see any examples in the examples folder using it in a programmatic way to determine if it can handle data streams or how to use it in my own program.
libtiff tools expect a filename so the background run shown below is simply from upper right X.tif to various destinations, first is default
tiff2pdf x.tif
and we can see it writes a tiff2pdf file stream to console (Standard Output) however it failed in memory without a directory to write to. However on second run we can redirect
tiff2pdf x.tif > a.pdf
or alternately specify a destination
tiff2pdf -o b.pdf x.tif
So in order to use those tools we need a File System to receive the file objects, The destination folder/file directory can be a Memory File System drive or folder.
Thus you need to initiate that first.
NuGet is a package manager simply bundling the lib and as I don't use .net your a bit out on a limb as BitMiricle are not offering free support (hence point you at Stack Overflow, a very common tech support PLOY, Pass Liability Over Yonder) however looking at https://github.com/BitMiracle/libtiff.net/tree/master/Samples
they suggest memory in some file names such as https://github.com/BitMiracle/libtiff.net/tree/master/Samples/ConvertToSingleStripInMemory , perhaps get more ideas there?
I have a website on which I have published several of my applications.
Right now I have to update it each time one of the applications is updated.
The applications themselves check for updates so the user only visits the website if they don't have a previous version installed.
I would like to make it easier for me by creating a single executable that when downloaded and executed, will check with the database which version is the most recent and then download that one and run that setup.
Now I can make a downloader for each application, but I rather make something more universal with a parameter or argument as the difference.
For the download the 'know' which database to check for the most recent version, I need to pass on the data to the downloader.
My first thought was putting that in a XML file, so I only have to generate different xml files for each application, but then it wouldn't be a single executable anymore.
My second thought was using commandline arguments like: downloader.exe databasename
But how would I do that when the file is downloaded?
Would a link like: "https://my.website.com/downloader.exe databasename" work?
How could I best do this?

Can somebody tell me some open source projects that implement document management online?
I need to upload document (pdf, docx,fb2), convert it to doc and allow user to edit it online and then convert back to pdf.
Images and formatting should be preserved.
I found teamlab, but it is not free and also I don't need collaborative editing.
Thank you.
It depends what your requirements are when you say 'online editing'.
You could use Nuxeo including the Nuxeo Drive extension, to enable users to edit the files from the remote repository locally (transparent in the sense the user does not take the step of downloading or uploading files), and their changes are then synced to the repository.
The user can edit the .doc file locally using OpenOffice (or MS Word if they have it).
If the requirement is strictly 'online/web only', you could convert the PDF to RTF via an OCR engine such as Tesseract, and then use one of the many WYSIWG inline editors, and connect this to Nuxeo as an edit button using their extension framework. There is an existing tesseract-ocr extension available at the Nuxeo source repo.
Before I attempt to program the following function myself, I wonder if something already exists.
What I would like to do is click an edit link on my website for a given document, and have that document launch in the native editor on my local machine (via a temporary file mechanism).
When I save the document in the native editor, the document is HTTP PUT back to the website. This can be accomplished by watching the file for writes, or watching the editor process for exit.
This way I can more easily edit documents on the web (instead of going through the download / edit / upload cycle).
My design would work as follows:
Register .webedit files on the local machine.
When a .webedit file is downloaded, launch webedit.exe with the file.
The file contains a URL (http://server/document) which is checked against a security database to ensure we're only opening allowed URLs.
The URL is downloaded to a temporary location.
The temporary file is launched in the native editor.
The file is watched for changes, and uploaded (HTTP PUT) on change detection (or when the editor is closed, if it's not a single-instance multiple-document editor).
Lots of FTP / SCP GUIs have this type of functionality, but I have not been able to find it for the web in general, or a shared library that allows you to plug in to this function.
Has anyone seen a program that does this?
SharePoint works like this.
It's great for managing shared documents in corporate environments.
Users can even checkout/checkin documents & the features are very extensible..you can customize pretty much anything if you know how.
Edit:
Since you're on Linux..i've heard that Alfreco is a great alternative.
I've never used it, but I know a couple organizations using it instead of SharePoint.
It integrates with Microsoft Office as well.
Also, it will definitely be cheaper.
I have developed a web based application in ASP.NET and C# where users have the facility to upload files on the server through this application I want the application to Scan the uploaded files for viruses before saving on the server. Same like when we attach files with our email in Yahoo. Please guide me how I can achieve this functionality Any API which can be integrated in ASP.NET application or any other way you can suggest. We can purchase the licensed version of a product which can achieve this. I have googled but did not find specific results.
Thanks in advance!
First of all the file must be saved onto the server before you can scan it. If you notice Yahoo will upload the file first - but not allow the attachment to be sent until scanned.
Then you can use an antivirus with a command line interface or some other kind of API. Both of these can be called via C# and should provide the functionality you require. Parhaps write a wrapper class that takes a file and returns true or false depending on whether a virus was detected.
Other applications that provide you with a command line interface:
Microsoft Security Essentials
clamAv
I believe MS AV provides better results.
Just purchase antivirus software that has a command-line interface (several popular packages include this). Once the file has been uploaded, run the scan.
I would think, in order to upload and scan at the same time, you might need to implement your own antivirus software as I'm not familiar with any package that would provide that sort of interface.
I run a shareware site. It doesn't work as you described, but I download each file to my local computer and run a scan on them. You would be doing something similar.
