What does the library

Bodoconsult.Core.Windows provides features related to Microsoft Windows operating system.

Current features are:

+Icon extraction as bitmap +Reading data from url files (get the included link address in file)

How to use the library

The source code contain a NUnit test classes, the following source code is extracted from. The samples below show the most helpful use cases for the library.

        // Arrange
        var url = Path.Combine(TestHelper.TestDataPath, "Bodoconsult.url");

        var fri = new FileInfo(url);

        var urlFile = new FileSystemUrl(fri);

        // Act
        urlFile.Read();

        // Assert
        Assert.AreEqual("http://www.bodoconsult.de/", urlFile.Url);
        Assert.AreEqual("Bodoconsult", urlFile.Caption);

Using IconsAsFilesHelper to get GIF images from an app icon

        var iconDocx = Path.Combine(TestHelper.OutputPath, "docx.gif");
        if (File.Exists(iconDocx)) File.Delete(iconDocx);

        var iconXlsx = Path.Combine(TestHelper.OutputPath, "xlsx.gif");
        if (File.Exists(iconXlsx)) File.Delete(iconXlsx);


        var icons = new IconsAsFilesHelper {IconPath = TestHelper.OutputPath};

        var path = Path.Combine(TestHelper.TestDataPath, "Test.docx");

        var fri = new FileInfo(path);
        icons.AddExtension(fri);


        path = Path.Combine(TestHelper.TestDataPath, "Test.xlsx");

        fri = new FileInfo(path);
        icons.AddExtension(fri);

        icons.SaveIcons();

        Assert.IsTrue(File.Exists(iconDocx));
        Assert.IsTrue(File.Exists(iconXlsx));

Meta data services

DNS (via AD and CIM)

        var pwd = TestHelper.GetSecureString(Password);

        var d = new DnsServer(DomainServer, Domain, UserName, pwd);

        Debug.Print("DNS structure "+ settings.DomainServer);

        Debug.Print("DNS domains");
        foreach (var domain in d.GetListOfDomains())
        {
            Debug.Print("\t" + domain.Name + " (" + domain.ZoneType+ (domain.ReverseZone ? ", Reverse zone":"")+ ")");
            //and a list of all the records in the domain:-
            foreach (var record in d.GetRecordsForDomain(domain.Name))
            {
                Debug.Print("\t\t" + record);
                //any domains we are primary for we could go and edit the record now!
