View 6 RepliesI am reading a CSV file created by Excel. the string I am reading needs to be encoded (it shows small boxes instead of hebrew characters) so I wrote a lil routine to convert the string -
Function encodeName(ByVal name As String) As String
Dim src As Encoding = Encoding.UTF8
Dim dest As Encoding = Encoding.Default
Dim srcBytes() As Byte
srcBytes = src.GetBytes(name)
Dim asciiBytes() As Byte = Encoding.Convert(src, dest, srcBytes)
Dim mychars(dest.GetCharCount(asciiBytes) - 1) As Char
dest.GetChars(asciiBytes, 0, asciiBytes.Length, mychars, 0)
Dim asciiString As New String(mychars)
End Function
From what I read FileStream.ReadLine reads the text with encoding UTF8 so I try to convert from UTF8 to Encoding.Default buy instead of little boxes I get question marks.
I have been using LINQ to SQL for quite a while (about two years). Every thing was fine until now. As usual, I created LINQ to SQL classes and built the project, then created an aspx page. However, I cannot see the DataClassesDataContext in the code behind file. It is not listed in the intellisense list.

Once i deploy and add this dll as a refernce in other client applications then the culture specific dlls are added under Bin directory in client application. I don't want this to happen. Should i embed or link the satellite assembly in my applicaion to avoid this? if so how to do this?
View 3 RepliesI had created ASP.Net Web Application named 'Traning Management System' (in English) for my company. Now my boss wants me to translate that application to Arabic language. He wants everything to be in arabic. I don't know how to do it. I searched in google and came to know about localization and globalization. I could not understand the topics. My application contains 1 master page, 5 .aspx pages. The pages mostly contains labels, textboxes, gridview, buttons and other controls. The project also contains reports.

They are text in label or they are UI words.
If change to other language, what method should I use??
How to maintain a web application in different languages.
For Examplel(English, Chinees,German...)
Need any Detailed Example.
I need to build a globalized web application, and I already have those resource files in the App_GlobalResources folder. My web application is built upon an N-tier architecture: DAL, BLL and Presentation are the layers, and we are using SQL Server 2008. We have decided that the database, BLL and DAL will always be operating using the en-US culture, but the culture in the Presentation layer can vary.
ASP.NET works with two culture properties: Culture and UICulture. There's an article in MSDN that states that a thread's UICulture determines which resource files ASP.NET picks, and Culture determines datetime/currency formating, etc.
So, to have a fully globalized application, I think I must set both Culture and UICulture, so that both Resources and datetime/currency formating are displayed using the same culture.
Then I thought I would set those culture properties (both of them) in the BeginRequest event in my web application, based on the user's choice, and that everytime a method in the BLL is called, it sets the thread's Culture property to "en-US" and, just before it returns, it sets the thread's Culture back to what it was before.
I am working on a web forms application that needs to support multiple languages based on a user's preference. Here are some considerations to keep in mind about the needed solution:
I want to avoid using resource files to store the different text translations because I'd like the ability to change them without having to recompile and deploy the application.
Also the translations ideally need to be adminstratable.
It seems its a considerable amount of effort to add this support to an existing application.
I want my web application to support multiple langauges like english,german,etc
Is there a way we can do this in visual studio or is ther any other way

View 2 RepliesI am little confused regarding the concepts of localisation and globalization.I was working on a project which was totally database driven. All the data, images and flash stuff was coming from the database. Now the site is fully loaded with the data.Now the client wants the currently running site in 5 different languages. So I read the resource files concept. Now the confusion arises. I have 2 types data on the site, one is static(ie text on labels, titles, buttons) and dynamic data that was added from the admin panel.Now my question is: If at this stage I want to make the site in 5 different languages, then I have to make the resource files for all those languages so that the static data can be displayed in different languages.But what about the dynamic data that was entered by the client. Client uploaded huge amount of data. Should I make the changes in the database tables and add 4 other columns for different languages and again upload that much data in those 4 languages.

View 4 Repliesin asp.net c#. I have a DetailsView with a TextBox and I want the input data be saved always with the FIRST LETTER IN CAPITAL. Example:
"red" --> "Red"
"red house" --> " Red house"
I need to DISPLAY the text in an asp textbox as upper case, regardless of whether the users caps lock is on or not - is there some property or method I can use?
I am converting the text using the .ToUpper method on submitting to the database anyway, but I have been asked to also DISPLAY it in upper case before that when first being typed.
Let say I am register like a name" bob" and when i login like a "bob" I am bob. When i login like a"Bob" I am Bob. Is there any nice way how login just only "bob".Or check the UserName textbox before login if its "bob" or "Bob"
View 7 RepliesI am trying to develop an ASP.NET 2.0 (application which uses a Windows Control Library. I did some reading, tried to get something working, and ran into a problem. Basically, when the web application runs, I see an outline of where the WCL should be, but there is a red 'x', looks like a delete icon, in the upper left corner of the outline.
Then I found this article,
http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/052604-1.aspx. I downloaded the code and when I ran it, without modification, I had the same problem. I also tried running the application from within VS 2005 (i.e., the projects recompiled) and I had the same problem.
i have a textbox, dropdownlist and a listbox. these 3 controls form my search engine where i can type some characters on the textbox then select one option from dropdownlist(eg.department), the listbox will populate names from the department that contain the characters. However i have one problem, my database contain all data in uppercase so when i type lowercase letter in the textbox nothing will be populated. Only when i type uppercase characters then something will populate. I think it got to do with my sql statement but i do not know how to do it
