View 3 RepliesI am develping an application that integrates with an RFID kit. The problem is, the kit comes with an .cs class that accepts data stored in a byte array however, each information stored in the array respresents an int. I wanted to store String information in each array but, my research suggest that a String itself can be converted to a byte array and not a byte....here the code from the .cs class:
byte BlockNo = 0;
byte[] BlockData = new byte[16];
byte ReturnCode = 0;

Each t_b*.text respresents an int. Is there a way I can stored a String in a single byte block?

1 element "0x82"
byte b = (byte)(lstEndPoints[0]); //Error cannot convert

I have defined an ODBC Command and ODBCdatareader as follows
OdbcConnection myConnection = new OdbcConnection(connectionString);
OdbcCommand myCommand = new OdbcCommand();
myCommand.Connection = myConnection;
myCommand.CommandText = "select UOPGM from GREG.TUSROPTF";
OdbcDataReader myReader;
myConnection.Open();
myReader = myCommand.ExecuteReader();
When I try to retreive from the reader as follows:
while (myReader.Read())
{
string someString = myReader["UOPGM"];
lstNames.Items.Add(someString);
}
I get the following error
Error reading the database. Unable to cast object of type 'System.Byte[]' to type 'System.String'."
I have also tried string someString = (string)myReader["UOPGM"]; to no avail

Every Entity in the AppServer inherits from BaseEntity which contains the method:

As you can see:
if the personObject was not null, but the ContactAddress was, [which is exactly what happens in the construction of a PersonObject in the event that no contact details are provided (hence they are not present in the HashTable and dont get created)] then the code will fail with a null reference exception.
SO:
Is there a fundamental flaw in the way that objects are getting created? It would be easy to point the finger in this direction, however, im sure there must have been some reason for the original architect to choose not to instantiate an empty ContactAddress object every time a Person object is referenced - EG if in a particular Presention->AppServer Request/Response cycle we only want a person's login details - we wouldn't care about the ContactDetails.
FINALLY MY QUESTION:
Is there a clean way to check for null objects within an aggregation, without doing something like:
if(Parent!=null)
if(Parent.child!= null)
if(Parent.child.child != null)
It just looks messy and it seems such a common problem, im sure there would be a better way of doing things.
I'm experimenting with validating forms in the asp.net MVC framework. I'm focusing on server side validation for the time being. I've come across an error that I'm not sure how to rectify. System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. The code that throws the error is:
[AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]
public ActionResult Create([Bind(Exclude="ID")] MembersCreate mc )
{
mc.Modules = ModuleListDataContext.GetModuleList();
ViewData.Model = mc;
//Validation using ModelState
//
//
//line below errors when form field is empty
//
if ((string)mc.Member.Username.Trim() == "")
ModelState.AddModelError("Member.Username", "Username is required.");
if (!ModelState.IsValid)
return View();
try
{
// TODO: Add insert logic here
return RedirectToAction("Index","Home");
}
catch
{
return View();
}
}
When I put spaces in the field it performs exactly as i want, but if I leave the field blank and press submit I get the error. What's the best way to avoid this error and still validate blank form fields?
I have several web sequential pages which will modify a record and its child records in the database, called a "project". Such a project is currently passed between pages using its database ID in the URL parameters.
A project has some information specific to itself, and also consists of one or more Tasks, which each have information specific to itself.
Is it faster (alternatively, more maintainable or more easily understood) to hit the database each time I need to query the same project (and its tasks), or should I query the database once (either once for each page or once for all pages and save to Session) and check the saved object rather than the database?

View 3 RepliesI have a working application to save an image file to my sql database (Saves as "Original_Image" in the DB TBL_ImageGallery). I have a file limit on the upload of 1 MB. This also works great and the image is being saved beautifully. I found a bit of an issue. Being i am working on a network with 2 bonded T1 connections the streaming of images to my site, when tested internally, is effortless. I am not sure that this will be the same with a generic bandwidth. I want to store the original image size into the databse (already done) but also store a smaller sized (in bytes not actual size [Width, Height]) to my database in a "ThumbNail" column. This will allow the browser to only have to pass the "Thumbnail" sized image, obviously this needs to be much smaller than the original (ex: 1MB orignal I want to save as 12KB image in the thumbnail column), to the thumbnail img control in the user's interface.
I am not sure if this is possible or if there is a need of third party controls. I am interested in doing this as either a stored procedure or in the C# code on an event fire. There may be a better / other solution to this and if that is the case I am also interested

How can I get asp.net to two-way databind (via Bind("myfieldname")) to a Byte value? I'm storing boolean values in Sql Server to a Byte type and it seems to be looking for boolean. Apparently I need something to convert my datasource's Byte
Looked into creating a method to call like MyConvertMethod(Bind("myfieldname")) but asp.net 4.0 did not allow that with "Bind()" though it allowed it with "Eval()" but Eval only seems to do one way databinding. I looked into the ConvertHandler but seems to be winforms and not webforms.
I have an image that I capture from an ip camera and post it on a webpage to an image tag. Now I would like to convert to access the picture so that I can save it to our cache blob. Here is my code:

code behind image assignment:
imgPhoto.ImageUrl = "http://10.10.40.35/axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi?resolution=640x480";

I want to send an email that has a machine readable part you cut and paste into an asp.net page and you get the information. I have stored all the information in an object and then used an XMLSerizer to create some xml. It all worked fine until I added some Images as byte[] to the object. If I dump the resulting string to disk then I can recreate the object fine but after it appears in the email client and I try to cut and paste it it never works. Clearly there are non standard characters coming out that email clients don't like.
Is there some encoding I could apply to my XML that would make it display correctly in an email client? Then I could cut, paste, decode and deserilize to get my object back.

How to convert the byte array to string?
I have a byte array of an image on the server side.
I have an img tag on my View page.
I'm wondering how to be able to use the byte array as the image source of the img tag.
I'm retrieving the byte array in my model, passing it back to my controller method and then I'd like to store it in ViewData somehow.
Then in the $(document).ready jQuery function of the View page somehow set that byte array as the source for my IMG tag.
Is this possible?

// make sure the size of the file is > 0
if (nFileLen > 0)
{
// Allocate a buffer for reading of the file
byte[] myData = new byte[nFileLen];
// Read uploaded file from the Stream
