MVC :: Getting File Location In Controller?

Apr 11, 2010

I have a controller that returns an image for a given parameter (productID). The image for a product is loaded from the database, but if the product is new, then there is no database record, or perhaps the image is null. In that case, I need to show an image that indicates that no image has been uploaded (e.g., a red X). The code to get the image from the database is straightforward, but the fallback image resides in the ASP.NET MVC application. The problem is, this is fairly generic code, and it will be used with areas later, so I want get the physical location of the file (i.e., "~/Images/noImage.jpb" to full file path). I know how to do this is a normal ASP.NET application, but how do I do this in a controller, in a way that won't break when the application is put in a subfolder?

How To Replace Request To PDF File To Redirect To Same File In Different Location

Dec 7, 2010

I have a virtual web folder that has large number of PDF Files (Leave Forms) submitted over the past 5 years.

The users and other applications have direct references to such files and on some cases, the PDF is referenced as embedded object.

Here is a snapshot of where the PDFs are stored:

So, the direct link to the PDF will look like the following:

[URL]

Becuase the PDFs are stored under a folder under the ASP.NET Web Application, it was a bad idea.

Now, I have to move them all to another location which is simply a virtual folder outside the Web Application.

All Leave PDF Forms have Unique URLs which is:

"SessionID" + "/" + "Leave-userid-start-date.pdf"

So, I need to replace the above link with the following after I move the PDF Files. I want the replacement to happen at the time it is requested from the Client Browser. The new URL will look like the following:

[URL]

So, whether it is requester from IE from any other Object Tag or similar, then the input URL should be replaced with the new URL as shown above.

C# - Using Grasp Controller With MVC Controller - How To Make An Object Always Visible For A Controller

Dec 28, 2010

UML and Patterns: An Introduction to Object-Oriented Analysis and Design and Iterative Development, that follows the UP(Unified Process). It uses a Grasp Controller pattern to interact with domain classes by some methods like NewSale(), AddNewItemToSale() and CloseSale. In windows form, I can instantiate a object of this class in the UI and then use its methods to perform the actions. This works well in Client apps, but when I use asp.net mvc, I cannot find a way to instantiate an object (one for each user) that was always visible for a Controller (MVC). I cannot insert as an attribute inside Controller because it always create a new one.

How To Specify Metadata Location In Connection String When Using An Edmx File

Jan 29, 2010

I have a web project with a data model defined in an edmx file. The connection string starts like this:

metadata=res://*/;

This has worked fine for a while. But somebody else working on the project created a dll that also uses the entity framework and added it to the bin folder. Now when I try to create my connection there is an error loading the metadata.

Aside from totally changing the way one or both of us is doing things, I wonder if the problem can be fixed if my connection string can be changed to only look for the metadata defined in my edmx file. The problem is, for the life of me I can't find the right syntax to do this. The metadata is embedded in the output assembly, so there are no physical metadata files to point to. How exactly should I specify the metadata location in the connection string?

What's Quickest Way To Find The File Location Of An Html Element In UI

Let's imagine you have an asp.net page in front of you full of input elements, user controls and panels etc. And you are asked to modify a specific textBox and you do not know where that textBox stands in your project. Most of the time I use FireBug and try to see the Id of that element but it is not the best way all the time. So, What is the fastest way you believe that can be used to locate the source file that houses a specific html element in your web project?

C# - Possible Alternative Location A Sitemap File Can Be Included In A .net Solution

Mar 10, 2011

I took over a rather large C# .NET 2.0 legacy web application from a colleague who is no longer available. This web application consists out of multiple projects in one solution. And I ran into a problem that I simply do not understand and hopefully somebody here will. The application has multiple .sitemap files included in a sitemap subfolder. So far so good. But I found one .sitemap file that was floating around in the root of the web project and is not used anywhere in the application (it's not included in the web.config).

I excluded this file. The web application runs fine without it. All menu's load correctly. Until I hit a method that uses recursion to look for certain controls (NOT the sitemap!). This method runs down through all controls from a given point and then crashes on the fact that the XMLSitemapProvider is missing this one file. This method is called many times without issues, but when the user logs out it somehow runs through a hierachical path of controls that eventually end up at the missing .sitemap file. The file also needs to be at this exact location in the root. Moving it somewhere else will cause the same crash. The file web.sitemap required by XmlSiteMapProvider does not exist.

I have searched for this filename and all ".sitemap" files but can not find it anywhere in the solution. 0 results found. I've ran past all the code leading up to the crash and it seems arbitrary (it has nothing to do with the sitemaps). The crash just happens because it hits the XmlSiteMapProvider looking for another control when it's going through all controls. In short, I can find no references what so ever to this file!

Since this web application is huge I can not manually go past every section of code. There is hundreds of thousands of lines of code. Does anybody know any other way then through the web.config to include a sitemap or how a sitemap file could be registered and where I should look? Final note: this application used localization. The sitemap's are localized and I found resources for this one sitemap. I hoped excluding those would solve the problem. Unfortunately it didn't.

Web Forms :: Reading A File Into Stream And Saving It To A Location?

Oct 8, 2010

I have a third party CMS system that can create forms but can't manage true File upload capabities. I am able to get users brows for thier file and have the value submited to my custom .net code behind page for processing. So I end up with like "C:somefilefoldersomefile.doc".

But on my processing page I want to read this file (like the file uploader) and save it to a location. I tried using the file uploader control (but have it not visible) but realized I can't preset it as I was planning to set it and do the normal processing from there. Is there another way to do this?

Specifying Relative File Location In Web.config For Use By Standard C# Class Library?

Jan 6, 2011

I'm struggling to find a way of specifying a file location in web.config appSettings that avoids using hard-coded paths but allows a non-'web aware' C# library to find a file. The C# library uses standard File.Open, File.Exists methods, etc. to operate on a data file, which is stored in my web application (ASP.NET MVC) tree, e.g. under:

contentdataMyDataFile.txt

Requirements:

I want to be able to specify my path like, e.g.:

<appSettings>
this--> <add key="MyFileLocation" value="~contentdataMyDataFile.txt" />
not --> <add key="MyFileLocation" value="c:inetpubwwwrootfoocontentdataMyDataFile.txt" />
</appSettings>

I don't want the C# library to be aware of the web application it's being used in, as it is used in other software, and the web application has no need to know about the configuration of the C# library.
