Introduction

This article will present a full ASP.NET web application written in pure C#. You'll see how to upload a file, use XML to store and read configuration, control the bandwidth used by the web site and adjust it to your needs.

Using the code

Debit control code:

//
//
//prepare data, read the file
data = null;
try
{
System.IO.FileStream fs = File.OpenRead(LocalServerPath + dlfile);
data = new byte[fs.Length];
fs.Read(data,0, data.Length);
fs.Close();
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}
#region Debit Control
//Debit control
if (wc.SpeedLimit == 0)
{
blocksize = 2048;
}
else
{
blocksize = (wc.SpeedLimit * 100);
}
while(index < data.Length)
{
if (index < data.Length)
{
s.Write(data,index, this.blocksize);
index = index + blocksize;
s.Flush();
Response.Flush();
}
else
{
s.Close();
break;
}
if (wc.SpeedLimit != 0)
{
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(100);
}
}
#endregion

How to install the demo?

1. Download the file and unzip it where you want. Modify the 2 XML config files: WebDriveConfig.xml to specify the storage directory and Users.xml to create a login/password (there are 4 users by default).
2. Right click on the folder where the webdrive is unzipped, click on properties, go to the web share tab, and share it with any alias name (webdrive for example).
3. Open IIS in Control panel > administrative tools , open the default website, find the web share named webdrive and right click on it > properties, in the virtual directory tab, in front of application name, click on delete and after create, click OK.
4. Open your web navigator (all navigators are supported because I don't use JScript or DHTML), type: http://localhost/webdrive, type your login / password.
