C# - Defining Status Of Data Via Enum Or A Relation Table?

Aug 20, 2010

I have an application which has rows of data in a relation database the table needs a status which will always be either Not Submitted, Awaiting Approval, Approved, Rejected Now since these will never change I was trying to decide the best way to implement them I can either think of a Status enum with the values and an int assigned where the int is placed into the status column on the table row.

Or a status table that linked to the table and the user select one of these as the current status.

I can't decide which is the better option as I currently have a enum in place with these values for the approval pages to populate the dropdown etc and setup the sql (as it currently using to Approved and submitted for approval but this is dirty for various reasons and needs changed).

Wondering what your thought on this were and whether I should go for one or the other.

If it makes any difference I am using Entity framework.

Databases :: Defining Index On Table Columns?

Mar 5, 2011

On one of our tables, a default clustered index is defined on the primary key by sql server 2005. The table also contains forign key columns and has got over 2 million rows. There are very frequent INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE functions on this table. Recently some of the SELECT queries which primary operate on the forign keys have become very slow (resulting in application timeout). To fix the problem, I defined an index on one of the primary keys which gave me very quick results. I don't know much about indexes.

1. Since I defined a new index (on the forign key) in addition to the existing default index, what kind of index (clustered or non-clustered) have I defined?

2. What performance impact does it have on the rest of the system? Is it going to break something else?

3. I read about fill factor. What is this and how does it effect the system?

4. Is the new index physically going to make any changes?

5. In case I delete this index later on, will the database return to the existing state or it will be a different state from now?

MVC :: Defining Validation Rules With Data Annotations?

Sep 24, 2010

Defined RegisterModel class - with some validation rules for creating new users, and this works fine.

Then I get this class, strip few properties and wanted to reuse it as UserInfo_Form_Model, for editing user properites.

No changes, just deleted few items, renamed and reused in strongly typed View for editing.

And result of validation is: -

[DisplayName("Name")] works fine, showing correct

[StringLength(20, ErrorMessage = "xxxx...")] - not working, no message showed when suppose to be one

[Required(ErrorMessage = "xxxx.")] - not working, not showing messages when delete required values?

but (ModelState.IsValid) is false when I checked it in controller (it had to be because required value is missing)?

Is it this only partially correct and how this can be?

Well this is a bit frustrating because it cant be simpler than this and I cant make this simple code reuse.

Setting Response / Status Generates "HTTP Status String Is Not Valid" Exception?

Jan 9, 2011

I'm writing an HTTP handler in ASP.NET 4.0 and IIS7 and I need to generate a file-not-found condition.

I copied the following code from Mathew McDonald's new book, Pro ASP.Net 4 in C# 2010. (The response variable is an instance of the current HttpResponse.)

response.Status = "File not found";
response.StatusCode = 404;

However, I found that the first line generates the run-time error HTTP status string is not valid.

If, instead of the lines above, I use the following:

response.Status = "404 Not found";

Then everything seems to work fine. In fact, I even see that response.StatusCode is set to 404 automatically.

My problem is that I don't want this to fail on the production server. So I'd feel much better if I could understand the "correct" way to accomplish this. Why did the first approach work for Mathew McDonald but not for me? And is the second approach always going to be reliable?
