POS (Point Of Sale) systems work?
Jun 22, 2010
First, My project is to develop a loyalty system similar to air miles. The objective is to capture items bought in stores by means of a magnetic stripe card. The problem is I dont know how POS (Point of sale) systems work. Do I need to contact all the grocery stores individually or do I need to contact all the POS software designers individually?
Second, The objective is not just to capture a number from the card but to actually have access to the individual items bought at the store by means of the card in the form of a database.

Just wondering, in an ASP.NET MVC3 environnement with entity framework. Should the Unit of Work point to the service layer or the repository (and then the repository point to the service layer) ?
Ive saw two example:
* One where the unit of work and repository both have an instance to the service layer..
Link: Entity Framework 4 CTP 4 / CTP 5 Generic Repository Pattern and Unit Testable
Doesn't use a service layer but its obvious that one could be use in that case.
* Second where the unit of work have an instance to the repository which have an instance to the service layer..

What would be better ?

I am trying to place a Paypal form on an aspx page under an item for sale.
It has the code:
<form target="paypal" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
...
</form>
It seems to make other parts of the page jump out of position and I can not seem to put it where I want it to be.

I have 2 Web applications in the same IIS with the virtual directory structure below:
http://www.mydomain.com/site1
http://www.mydomain.com/site2
both site1 an site2 are using form authentication and creating the token further adding in cookie as below,
FormsAuthentication.Initialize();
FormsAuthenticationTicket ticket = new FormsAuthenticationTicket(1,username,DateTime.Now, DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(20),rememberMeSet,globalID ,FormsAuthentication.FormsCookiePath);
// Encrypt the ticket.
String hash = FormsAuthentication.Encrypt(ticket);
//Create the authentication cookie
HttpCookie cookie = new HttpCookie(FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName, hash);
My problem is when I'm logging in to Both site1 and site2 then these two are not running simultaneously on single browser using different tab for same user name.one is being logged out when logging to the other application and vice verse.

This is more of a general question about which direction would be a better investment for the company.
Our company's core business application is written in Visual FoxPro and is about 9+ years old. The database is huge 15+ gigs and the core logic is complex and to make matters worse the data model is terrible. The two guys that built it and have maintained it all these years are at least in their 50's, so needless to say retirement or possibly death could come within the next decade or so.
This VFP app drives all our core business functions and requires terminal services and citrix to access it from the outside world. Our web apps have to interface with it via ODBC and we are always having performance issues with it. The servers that run this system are also very old, like Win 2000 server and are falling apart.
Recently we have been having meetings about upgrading the systems that run this core app as well as other services like email and file storage. The biggest expense however is buying new server hardware, OS licensing, Terminal Services licensing, Citrix licensing etc to solve some performance and outside access issues we are currently having as well as just generally bringing us to date on our systems.
The price tag is going to be in the $55K to $65K price range. So as a web developer my point of view is that this is a huge waste of money! My solution would be to invest that money in rewriting the core system to run on the web based .Net platform. This would eliminate the need for Terminal Server and Citrix licensing along with the pricey hardware and configuration management to run it on. I don't see the point in investing this kind of money in an antiquated system that should be on it's way out anyways.
I am looking to get some convincing arguments as to why this is a waste of money. Hopefully there is someone here that has faced this type of situation before that can give me some points of view. The hardware upgrade seems to be the easiest road to take because they will just have a consultant come in and do it all. A software development project would take longer, require more resources and possibly cost a little more money.

Suppose I have two threads(Thread1, Thread2) where the threads are accessing the cache for a given object such as in the code below nearly at the same time:
Dim expensiveToGetData = Cache("ExpensiveDataKey")
If ExpensiveToGetData is nothing then
'because the cache has expired
ExpensiveToGetData = LoadExpensiveDataFromDataSource()
Cache("ExpensiveDataKey") = ExpensiveToGetData
end If
ProcessExpensiveData(ExpensiveToGetData)
Isn't it possible for both threads to load the cache because they both requested data from the cache that was nothing/expired? I've run some tests on a local machine and it seems that the cache is being loaded more than once. Is this a normal pattern?

Recently I've implemnted Single SignOn feature in my website which was developed on Framwork 2.0 using visual studio 2005.These website works on all browsers perfectly except that there two systems in my testing environment where the FormsAuthentication doesn't work on IE only.
On Those systems itself FormsAuthentication works for other browsers like mozilla.On these system I have checked that FormsAuthentication cookie is created but it lost it value as soon as other page is traversed.But when I try to login again it give me the messsage that user is already login i.e. user was able to login successfully.Both of them are currenlty using IE 8.
Following is the settins of my web.config:

My system is an asp.net website which uses sql server 2008 (mostly stored procedures, but for asychnronous calls I directly insert the sql commands). I have a web service which polls multiple databases, I use external libraries(Including office interop), and allow for uploading and downloading files - without restriction.
My asp pages use javascript and jquery for most of their functionality.

explain to me the point of static?
Say I have a class called GenericFunctions and a function in there called FormatAddress.
If I want to access that function I have to do this:
Code:
GenericFunctions GF = new GenericFunctions();
string FormattedAddress = GF.FormatAddress(int AddressID);
If I make FormatAddress static I can access it without creating an instance of the class by just calling
Code:
string FormattedAddress = GenericFunctions.FormatAddress(int AddressID);
So, making the function Static means I don't have to create an instance of the class. So, what's the point? Why not make everything Static?

What is the point of throwing an exception? It it anyways going to be caught in the Global.asax Application_Error method.
Lets say in the following code we throw an exception.
try {
using (var dc = GetDataContext())
{
// We are doing some data inserts here.
}
catch ( Exception ex)
{
throw ex;
}
My Question: Even if we do not use try catch and throw here, any exception which will be raised here will be caught inside Application_Error method in Global.asax. Then what is the point of try, catch and throw in this case?

Question, I have a few asp.net c# projects... but I only use one webhosting to host all the projects. My question is,
Is it possible for me to register like 2 domains and point each domain to 2 projects within that web host?
For example:
Http://mysite1.com will point to the "../project1/default.aspx"
http://mysite2.com will point to the "../project2/default.aspx"

I have been looking at the unit testing topic and honestly I have never yet seen it in a live application.
Im a little foggy on the subject....
A simple example is if I am populating a listbox with data, I would know through debugging if the data is being populated and if it wasnt it would probably be easy to figure out why. Futhermore I couldnt possibly put it in production if it wasnt work so, why would I need to do a unit test? I dont see the point of it.

Just created a blank "ASP.NET Web Application". Where's the entry point?
I see "Default.aspx" which seems to be the default template that calls. "Site.Master" which I guess acts as a layout file. "Global.asax" that seems to provide some method stubs for event handling. And then "Web.config" which seems to have some site-specific settings such as a DB connection string, and some authentication stuff.
But no where do I see any "routes" or anything to indicate that "Default.aspx" should be called by default, or "Global.asax" should be used to handle events. Where's this stuff specified? Is it baked into the core of ASP? Can't I filter all the requests through one C# method and then delegate how I please? And return some sort of Http response?

I am using Ajax extender controls with asp.net 3.5 in particular MaskedEditExtender.My settinngs are:
Mask = 99.99
InputDirection = RighttoLeft
MaskType = number.
I can't seem to achieve what I want which is to set the focus just to the left of the decimal point. I try both InputDirection RightToLeft and LeftToRight. They both have problematic behavior. The example given by Microsoft on their web site, is close to want I want but I cannot achieve these results.See

I want to create an asp.net white-label site [URL], that could be styled for each of our clients according to their specific needs. So for example, client abc would see the site in their corporate colours and be accessed through their specific url http://abc.com. Likewise client xyz would see the site in their own styling and url http://xyz.com.
Typing either url, in effect, takes the user to http://whitelabel.com where the styling is applied, and the client's url structure is retained.
I was thinking of URL rewriting using URLRewriter.Net [URL], or similar, mapping the incoming address to a client id and applying the theme accordingly. So, a url rewrite rule may be something like
<rewrite url="http//abc.com/(.+)" to="~/$1?id=1" />
<rewrite url="http//xyz.com/(.+)" to="~/$1?id=2" />
I could then read the id, map it to the client, and with a bit of jiggery-pokery, apply the correct theme.
