I am working on a new project using ASP.NET 4 and I have a few Resource Files.However, I also have resources on a SQL database. I would like to somehow create a common resource provider.I would like to be able to use:
Resources.Labels.Email > This would take the resource Email from file Labels.
Resources.Database("Email") > This would take the resource with name "Email" from the database.When I get a resource from the database I always return the Name, Content and MimeType.To avoid multiple requests I could even have another method like:
Resources.Database(new List<String> { "Email", "Address" }) > This would take the resources with name "Email" and "Address" from the database in one request.I am not sure if this would be possible ... Basically I would need to have something like:
Resources.Database.Load(new List<String> { "Email", "Address" }); And then use: Resources.Database("Email");
And even have one more:Resources.Config("Email") > This would take the resource with name "Email" from th web.config file. Always a String.I have all the code with communication with the database and web.config.The main problem is really how to create this resource interface.
Is there a way to use DataAnnotations for validation, particulary in MVC, while relying on a custom resource provider ?
I built a custom SQL based resource provider for the asp.net side of my MVC application. At this point I'm down in the model section and want to use DataAnnotations for validation. Something like ...

Strings.resx (contains my English string) Strings.fr-ca.resx (contains my French-Canadian strings) Strings.fr-ca-clientX.resx (contains [code]...
My question relates to membership providers. I have two websites that run on two different servers. One website is a community website that uses Telligent community server 2007. The other is a website that contains information. I have a form where users can request more information. What I would like to do is when a user requests more information, automatically create a user account in my community website. I was told that I can create a custom asp.net membership provider that will create a new user account in my community website. I have read some info at msdn and asp.net websites, but I am still unclear as to how I can create a custom membership provider that will work across different websites running on different servers.
I want to create a custom membership provider which doesnot has Password Question and Password Answer fields. But has some other extra fields.Is it possible? I am asking this because if I inherit MembershipProvider class then I get forced to use default CreateUser Method which has password question and password answer parameters. I don't want these parameters.
I have watched the how to video on Creating a Custom Membership provider. So far it works great. My login control interacts well with it etc. Now i've created a Custom Role Provider. I've created a class that inherits the RoleProvider base class and i've added code to each Sub. My question is, what is the best way to implement the role provider, considering I get the Roles etc from the database?
I try to get the user profile settings with this code. But all items in it are empty, in the database they are not empty. So there is going something wrong. First of oll how can i add a provider to the ProfileCommon ? Maybe i'm there then... the usrInfo is filled well...

on successful login it redirects to (index-Homepage.aspx)
now PROBLEM is when it successfully logged in ,and redirects to 'index-Homepage.aspx' it gives Anornymoustemplate ..while its verifying the role correctly in index-Homepage.aspx.cs
i'm building an application and i need to manage roles, users and more things so i tought to use the membership provider but i have some questions about it: can i full extend it and can i override the functions to use a database table to store infos about config or i need to build my own provider?
VS says Profile is in System.Web.Profile Namespace. I then use it like this "System.Web.Profile.FirstName", but says first name does not exist in System.Web.Profile.FirstName namespace.
I create custom principal for implement logic for users. In identity I store Id, Name. But it abnormally - this classes must use for authenticate and authorize.
I can implement custom MembershipUser, custom Roles and Membership provider.
I was referred here by MSDN forums hope this is the right place - I have a custom control (:WebControl) that renders web.sitemap in a specific way. While it runs error free and produces the expected result, at Design-Time it complains
[Code]....
and have tried the SiteMapDataProvider Tag with and without the SiteMapProvider attribute.Does anybody have (a) any experience with this, or (b) any suggestions as to how to track down the problem?
I have created my own custom role provider class "SGI_RoleProvider" and configured properly.
Everything is working fine.
Suppose that I have added a public method say "SayHello()", then how can i call that. Because if i am using Roles then the method is not displayed. If i am forcefully using that Roles.SayHello() then compiler gives the error.
how can i call this. Because creating a new instance of SGI_RoleProvider is meaningless.
I'm new to ASP.NET and I don't exactly understand some features.
I have a custom membership provider TestMembershipProvider which inherits from MembershipProvider. It has the following CreateUser method:
[Code]....
It's absolutely simple code.Then I have two text boxes (login, password) and the button to register a new user. I thas a following code:
[Code]....
[Code]....
Authentication in web.config is set like this:
[Code]....
No matter what I write into textboxes, following error is being returned:
The password retrieval question provided is invalid.
I don't know why. Either in web.config or in get RequiresQuestionAndAnswer I have false value. When I instantiate my TestMembershipProvider and call CreateUser directly instead of using static Membership.CreateUser, it works fine. Do I have to use instance of my TestMembershipProvider or did I missed anything?
I have created my custom MembershipProvider. I have used an instance of the class DBConnect within this provider to handle database functions. Please look at the code below:
public class SGIMembershipProvider : MembershipProvider { #region "[ Property Variables ]" private int newPasswordLength = 8; private string connectionString; private string applicationName; private bool enablePasswordReset; private bool enablePasswordRetrieval; private bool requiresQuestionAndAnswer; private bool requiresUniqueEmail; private int maxInvalidPasswordAttempts; private int passwordAttemptWindow; private MembershipPasswordFormat passwordFormat; private int minRequiredNonAlphanumericCharacters; private int minRequiredPasswordLength; private string passwordStrengthRegularExpression; private MachineKeySection machineKey; **private DBConnect dbConn;** #endregion ....... public override bool ChangePassword(string username, string oldPassword, string newPassword) { if (!ValidateUser(username, oldPassword)) return false; ValidatePasswordEventArgs args = new ValidatePasswordEventArgs(username, newPassword, true); OnValidatingPassword(args); if (args.Cancel) { if (args.FailureInformation != null) { throw args.FailureInformation; } else { throw new Exception("Change password canceled due to new password validation failure."); } } SqlParameter[] p = new SqlParameter[3]; p[0] = new SqlParameter("@applicationName", applicationName); p[1] = new SqlParameter("@username", username); p[2] = new SqlParameter("@password", EncodePassword(newPassword)); bool retval = **dbConn.ExecuteSP("User_ChangePassword", p);** return retval; } //ChangePassword public override void Initialize(string name, NameValueCollection config) { if (config == null) { throw new ArgumentNullException("config"); } ...... ConnectionStringSettings ConnectionStringSettings = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings[config["connectionStringName"]]; if ((ConnectionStringSettings == null) || (ConnectionStringSettings.ConnectionString.Trim() == String.Empty)) { throw new ProviderException("Connection string cannot be blank."); } connectionString = ConnectionStringSettings.ConnectionString; **dbConn = new DBConnect(connectionString); dbConn.ConnectToDB();** ...... } //Initialize ...... } // SGIMembershipProvider
I have instantiated dbConn object within Initialize() event. My problem is that how could i dispose off this object when object of SGIMembershipProvider is disposed off. I know the GC will do this all for me, but I need to explicitly dispose off that object. Even I tried to override Finalize() but there is no such overridable method. I have also tried to create destructor for SGIMembershipProvider.

How do I reference that filename outside the control?Update: Not sure if this is even possible and I hav enot found any information on it.
