Configuration :: Iphone Compatible Modules In Web Application?
Jun 10, 2010
We are developing an Asp.net web application for client .
In this project client wants few modules to be accessed via iphone also.How can we do that?
Do we need to develop separate iphone compatible modules or can we extend the functionality of existing asp.net web application to work with iPhone also.
I'm building an Iphone application, which has to retrieve information from a database on a server. I thought about building a C# web service on the server,so the Iphone app will send a http request to the web service and get the required data as a xml output. Are there any better alternatives? for instance: I never tried but heard about WCF, maybe it's better using it instead of the older xml web service technology?
I am very new to iPhone development. I have some queries regarding it and these are:
1) Can I develop iPhone application on Windows PC with the help of .NET framework? I have heard that if it is required to distribute the app throgh iPhone store, it must be developed on MAC OS.
2) Is there any open source framework that does the same? The purpose is to distribute the application.
3) Is there only one solution - get a intel MAC OS and develop iPhone app on this very machine?
Could someone please tell me/link me to how I could create a method similar to those posted below: [URL] (I am providing the links as I'm not sure how to articulate this question without them!) I'm using C# ASP.NET. IIS 6. I have an existing web server with other public API methods. I do not want the iPhone user to have to open a web browser, and post to an aspx page. I want the iPhone developer to be able to call my method, and have one of the parameters be a handle to the file which gets POSTed.
I want to perform some basic URL rewriting.http://locahost/website/ChangeMeIt seems I can't get the server cofigured right to do this.I created my own customer HttpHandler.by the time the my handler gets the url .... it has already been changed by asp.net to ChangeMe.htm ....Does anyone have anyclue on where IIS7 or ASP.net is messing with the URL?I have tried the built in Rewriter and Intelligencia.UrlRewriter and ".HTM" gets appended to every single extensionless request.
I'm currently involved with developing a C# CMS-like web application which will be used to standardise our development of websites. From the outset, the idea has been to keep the core as simple as possible to avoid the complexity and menu/option overload that blights many CMS systems. This simple core is now complete and working very well.
We envisisaged that the system would be able to accept plugins or modules which would extend the core functionality to suit a given projects needs. These would also be re-usable across projects. For example, a basic catalogue and shopping basket might be needed. All the code for such extensions should be in seperate assemblies. They should be able to provide their own admin interfaces and front-end code from this library. The system should search for available plugins and give the admin user the option to enable/disable the feature. (This is all very much like WordPress plugins)
It is crucial that we attack this problem in the correct way, so I'm trying to perform as much due dilligence as possible before jumping in.
I am aware of the Plugin Pattern (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms972962.aspx) and have read some articles on it's use. It seems reasonable but I'm not convinced it's necessarily the correct/best technique for this situation. It seems more suited to processing applications (image/audio manipulation, maths etc).
Are there any other options for achieving this kind of UI extensibility functionality? Or is the plugin pattern the way to go?
I'd also be interested if anybody has links to articles that explain using the plugin pattern for this purpose?
Is there any way to seperate development of different modules in a application other than using namespaces? I want to be able to define interfaces between the modules and unit test them seperately.
I work in a suite of ASP.NET applications that have several different "modules". The applications all share a main menu, so they all link to one-another. The modules are the high-level areas of the application. So, for example, it might be Payments, Orders, Customers, Products, etc. And Payments and Orders are in one app and Products and Customers are in another. Some of these menu links are "deep links", for example it might be a link to a particular page within the Customers module, such as Create New Customer.
We are about to start a project that will add several more modules to this suite, probably as a new .NET application. I'm thinking about doing these new modules in Silverlight (for various reasons that are not material to the question). If I were to do that, I need to make the menu look the same as the menu in ASP.NET, as the users still need to feel like they are inside one "application".
How should I organize the Silverlight project(s) so that I can "deep link" from ASP.NET pages into particular modules in the Silverlight app? What is even the best idea for creating these different Silverlight "modules"? If I had something that would've been a page in ASP.NET (for example - Create Customer), should each one of those be a separate Silverlight app? Or should it be a separate User Control? Or something else? Should I reuse our shared ASP.NET menu, and deep link to different Silverlight "modules" even within the new application? Or should I reimplement the menu in Silverlight for navigation within the app? Are there menu controls for Silverlight that look similar to ASP.NET menus (with flyout submenus in this case)? Could I maybe even share a SiteMap XML file between them?
...for getting rid of precondition="managedHandler". Where can I find the names and types of the other modules? I suspected that somewhere in the hierarchy there should be some XML describing the defaults. However, I cannot find it. Am I missing some machine.config, web.config file?
We are going develop a web application using asp.net. This applicaton is going to server 50 users per day and 40 users concurrently. As the user count is less, we are planning to have two webservers clustered under a webfarm. We are planning to go for a Sticky Session. Netscaler is the load balancing and reverse proxy we are using at hardware level to route to the same webserver till the end of the client session.
1. Do I need to implement any handler at asp.net level to route the session or to provide browser cookie details of session to NetScaler? If so, what should be implemented in detail. Any sample code will also be helpful.
2. I need to maintain a big chunk of object information in session. Does a webserver can handle it?
3. At the hardware level how ReverseProxy works to navigate it to the same webserver? I want conceptual details of it from a web application end.
Apologies if this seems obvious, but after a week searching I can't find a clear answer to my problem.
I have developed an application in Visual Web Developer 2010 Express that uses the asp.net application services membership provider. It works well in development on my machine (data in the ASPNETDB.MDF database).
I packaged my application and deployed the relevant files with FTP to my shared hosting provider.
I took a copy of the ASPNETDB.MDF and restored it to the SQL Server 2008 on my shared hosting. I can connect to this through the Database Explorer in Visual Web Developer, but it doesn't contain any schema or data.
I know once I have the database in production I will have to make sure the connection string in web.config is poiting to it, but I don't know how to get the DB to production in the first place.
i have my own cloude server. with iis7(OS:window server 2008) . i want to deploy my webApplication on that can u tell me best configuration of iis7 and webconfig file for my application.
We have lot of application parameters for each module in a C# .NET 4 ASP website. parameter examples: timeouts, formulae constants, thread limits per module, $ charges per usage etc. What is best out of following approaches we know: Use DB config table Use an xml. load that xml into local cache on start (and on xml change) simple constants.cs file with public const int XYZ = 123; type of key-value pairs. web.config (though i think its mostly for deployment type of config)
I have a web.config file defined in my asp.net web application. I have many different settings configured there. I have another project, this time a console application. I'd like to read several configurations from my web.config file. How can this be done?
