Extract Images from Executable Files Using Managed Code (C#/VB) - icons

Can I retrieve bitmap information from an executable using managed code only?

If you simply want to extract the icon, then you can look here: Get File Icon used by Shell
If you want to extract resource images then you should clarify your question to state how they're stored in the executable. Describing how the example exe was created would be useful.

How to convert mbtiles to .osm.pbf

I'm writing a Qt application that is supposed to show a geo-map of a specific geographical region in one of its views on top of which I need to be able to draw various other graphical elements.
The requirements are that all the map-tiles must be pre-downloaded for off-line use as during the use of the application there will be no internet connection.
After lengthy search for a suitable library that I could link into my Qt project that would support my needs (off-line tile loading, rendering and painting the map in Qt framework, non-QML only C++ integration) I thought libOsmScout would do the job.
However, I have managed to download .mbtiles files for my region from OpenMapTiles just to realise that libOsmScout cannot natively work with .mbtiles.
The library can only work (indirectly after "import") with .osm.pbf files.
(http://libosmscout.sourceforge.net/tutorials/importing/)
I've searched extensively the web but all the results were pointing to conversion procedures in the opposite direction, i.e. into the .mbtiles.
So my question is: is it possible to convert .mbtiles files to .osm.pbf format so I can then import it into libOsmScout compatible internal set of files?
If it is possible, what the process?
Any help or guidance would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
Easiest way is to use ogr2ogr to convert to pbf format.
ogr2ogr -f MVT output_dir_name input.mbtiles -dsco MAXZOOM=2
This will create a directory structure with each zoom level having a directory and pbf file named according to the tile position.
Or
using this tool called MBUtil.
There are some steps which you can follow from the github repo.
After that, you can then use the following command to convert to directory structure with each tile in pbf format.
mb-util input.mbtiles output_dir_name image_format=pbf
where tiles is the directory name you want

Convert RTF to PDF on a rule into Alfresco

I found a link (http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Content_Transformations) that says that i need to create a file named my-transformers-context.xml and put my configurations there to convert RTF to PDF...
There says that some configuration are already configured but this one (RTF to PDF) and some others (DOC to PDF) are not.
By the way i couldn't find how to create this xml with the right configuration to convert the RTF file into a PDF...
Someone already done something like this? or someone know a link that explain how to configure this xml file?
PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!
I don't know if there is a way to say that i've solved the problem... But here it goes the solution...
I saw what Gagravarr said and started looking for configuration of openoffice into alfresco...
There is a file named:
alfresco-global.properties
and there is two variables named:
ooo.exe
and
ooo.enabled
the first one must indicate the path to sopenoffice.exe
and the second one must be equal to true...
ooo.enabled = true
That solve a lot of problema to convert some kind of file to another... like RTF to PDF...
Out of the box, Alfresco should be able to transform a RTF file to a PDF using OpenOffice (direct or JodConverter, depending on if you're on Community or Enterprise)
Assuming you're on a new enough Alfresco, this webscript will tell you what transformations are available from and to RTF:
http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/mimetypes?mimetype=application/rtf#application/rtf
If that doesn't show you RTF -> PDF, then you need to look at your open office configuration/setup

How to create empty Zip folder in asp.net1.1

I'am doing upload functionality in ASP.NET 1.1.
I want to create one empty zip folder on given path.
So, how to create an empty zip folder?
Later on I will save files in that folder. I do not want to use any third party component.
There are a couple of third-party components that do this. Writing one from scratch would be a big effort, I do not recommend it. Why the requirement not to use an existing library? There are some suggested in the answers for Open-source zip library for .NET?.
If all you really want is an empty zip file, simply add one to your solution and copy it into place as necessary.

ClearCase list of files with given label type applied

We currently use clearcase on a project, and there is an HTML file that was generated with clearcase that contains all of the filenames of the files that were included in a label.
I am supposed to generate this file with a different label. I know how to get all of the filenames that were included in a label using the cleartool command line, but that doesn't help me with generating the file. I don't want to manually take that list and create the HTML file. So, how do I create this file?
I currently do not have a copy of the HTML file, but I have seen it. Hopefully this question isn't too confusing and too vague. I'm still relatively new to clearcase and just found out some of the cleartool commands today, so hopefully this is an easy question to answer.
I am not sure about the exact HTML file you are referring to. Do you have an example of its name, and of its content? If you edit your question with those data, I will be able to add to this answer.
But anyway, if that file is not generated directly by ClearCase, the solution remains to parse a cleartool find command (see also Additional examples of the cleartool find command article)
cleartool find . –version "lbtype(MY_LABEL-1.0)"
and to build your html file with, for instance, a Perl script.
You could even add this action into a ClearCase sub-menu entry, like illustrated in the ten best scripts article.
What you might be looking for is Report Builder (also known in ClearCase Explorer as Report Wizard). In Report Builder you can navigate to Elements/Labels which has the "Elements with Labels" and "Versions with Labels" reports. After the report runs you have the option to save the results as HTML, XML, or CSV.

Extract zip file in flex

Is there any method to extract zip files and maintain the same folder structure in the output folder.I am able to extract the zip file and its inner files but not able to extract folder from a zip file and thus fail to maintain folder structure also.
Yes.
There is an AS3 component that allows you to read and write data from zip files, and the demo also shows that it is possible to see the folder structure.
http://www.nochump.com/blog/?p=15
I have not used this component myself, but if I am correct in assuming that you are making an AIR application then this component may automatically generate folders, otherwise you can use the file system api to create the correct folders yourself.
Good Luck!
