Do I need to implement all the required methods on the MembershipProvider and RoleProvider if writing a custom one to use the AuthorizedAttribute in ASP.NET MVC?
There are a few features that I don't want to implement like CreateUser or 'DeleteRole` because they violate the system I will be authorizing/authenticating against.
how page update methods are normally done in a web page with multiple sections? I have a few web pages containing several sections. Each section contains different controls/values and can be saved/updated at any point. Can this be done without creating multiple save functions for each "save" button click in each section? Can this be done with one save class that accepts any number of different values?
Also, i have some page values that should insert if it does not exist and update if the value already exist. Currently, i have to check the database to see if the value exist before inserting and updating. Is there a better way of doing this in VS 2010?
In one of the applications I am working on, there are two basic functionalities included: Create and Update. However, there is a need sometimes to add custom code, so I thought of extending the code by allowing 3rd parties to write and embed their own code:
OnCreating
OnCreated
OnUpdating
OnUpdated
Is there a way to enable the above across multiple assemblies? MEF might help here?
I am trying to implement the webrequest get and post methods. I am accessing a secure site that requires login authentication and was told that instead of sending a login request all the time; login to the site and capture the cookie and use this to send it in the header to get results from the page. In other words let us use google for example. Lets say google required u to login before searching for something. Now I login through my browser and leave the site logged in. Now I send a httwebrequest from my program that includes the cookie authentication details in the request header and get results for say ?param=sports. Now when I increment the page number like &page=3, I am still only getting page 1 results.
Here is some code:
[Code]....
Now I am using the request method GET. This is in the actual request header from the original request.

I would like to implement LINQ IN ASP.NET for filter required data from datatable. I have doubt that what is right place. I have following options
At presentation layer *.aspx.cs
At our Business layer.
At our Data base layer, where query for database happen which is return as a datatable to business layer. Business layer then return the result to presentation layer.right place for LINQ because now i have to further filter data from datatable as per user selecter filters.
I am developing a couple of small ASP.NET application and would like to know what pattern. approach do you use in your projects.
My projects involve databases, using Data access and Business logic layers.
The data-access approach that I was using so far is the following(I read in some book and liked it):
For DAL layer:
Creating an abstract class that will define all database manipulation methods to implement.
The abstract class will contain a static "Instance" property, that will load (if instance == null) an instance (Activator.CreateInstance) of the needed type (a class that implements it).
Creating a classes that implement this abstract class, the implementation will be according to the databases (SQL, mySQL and etc) in use.
With this I can create different implementation according to database in use.
For BLL layer:
A class that encapsulates all all retrieved fields , and static methods that will call the DAL classes.
I have an extension method as follows:
public static class PageExtensions
{
public static int GetUserId(this Page targetPage)
{
var user = Membership.GetUser(targetPage.User.Identity.Name);
return (int)user.ProviderUserKey;
}
}
Now in a page I need to use this method in a static WebMethod, so I have added another 'extension method' to PageExtensions:
public static int GetUserId()
{
return (int)Membership.GetUser(HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name).ProviderUserKey;
}
and I call it as follows in my WebMethod: PageExtensions.GetUserId()
public class CacheHelper { /// <summary> /// Removes object with the specified key. /// </summary> /// <param name="key">The key.</param> [code]....
I have this methods for caching..I need to change this methods to use in aDictionary<string,object>
How do I need to change this code Because I am new to asp.net I am still learning..
I am beginner in web applications development. I started one little project and host it on source forge "https://homoco.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/homoco". And I started implementing authentication in this application to learn how it works. From my experience people never use out of the box things so I want to implement this stuff alone (like in real world projects). So some questions:
1) Is there any reason to use membership out of the box? To use database table schema, stored procedures etc. that tool generate for developer. I think that this lower control over code and I decided to implement it my self. I don't know if I am right.
2) Is my approach in this demo project good or bad (if someone have time I like to do just a little code review)? I created database based on business rules. Not using database schema that membership provider require. Extend "MembershipProvider" class to satisfy my needs. Implement queries to database myself.
3) Now, this question is a little wired but I have to ask it. If we make custom Membership Provider and do sql queries alone, implement all MembershipProvider class methods ourselves, and in application use Membership.blabla() why is this approach different from not extending MembershipProvider class and putting all this methods in some unique class and call its methods then? I hope that someone understand what I ask here.
I am sorry for three questions, but I really trying to find the best way to implement this feature in my demo project like it is a real world application.
i have a repository class inside my model folder; this repositiry contains many methods , which are called from Action methods in the controllers; so my question is :- if i have a method insidle my model.reporsitory which calls a stored procedure, then can i call it an "action method"? or "action method" expression only apply to controller methods?
View 4 RepliesWe say that "GroupBy" and "OrderBy" methods from LINQ as Extension Methods.Then how about "variable.ToString()" and "string.Split()" menthods. Are these Extension methods.

I have an ASP.NET web application and I'm thinking about the following: before sending any HTML or CSS content to users, I wish to 'compress' them, then cache the result and send that to the clients.I know it is possible to compress these by removing whitespaces, comments and stuff like that, but I'm not really familiar with more advanced solutions for this.
Apart from this, what compression methods are there and what are the advantages of each of them?Does some browsers or the HTTP protocol itself support any kind of compression?
EDIT: I'm interested in doing this to dynamically-generated HTML, too.
i use membership provider in my website

Actually I have done all my Biz(business layer) and DAL CRUD Opprations using static methodes
and I just send my error messages to my log table a sample of biz layer
public static bool Delete(Guid LogGroupID)

using (DAL.ChroXEntities db = new ChroX.DAL.ChroXEntities())
{
var q = (from lg in db.LogGroupSet

so what should i do to propagate an user friendly error to my users?
1)usign execute scalar i will get 1st col and 1st row value.
2)using dataset i will get whole table.. if my stored proc has 2 queries then i will get 2 tables within same dataset.. i can reference therese using ds.tables(0).rows(value).
3)suppose i use a datareader then i will get multiple-rows. i want to know how to get these each separate rows coloumn values into variables. below is the reader aspx.vb
reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
while (reader.Read()) {
4)what is it mean by data reader is forward only method of getting data.
5)why do we do readeritem.tostring()
6) can you tell me the basic how is this reader,ds,scalar works.i mean i know to use but donot know basics esspecially the dataadpapter.why do we fill it when using dataset.
I have this snippet in my html... Fusion Charts requires I feed it an XML to create a graph
<script type="text/javascript">
var myChart = new FusionCharts("/Content/Fusion_Charts/Charts/Column3D.swf", "myChartId", "470", "350", "0", "0");
myChart.setDataURL("/XML/Graph/?list=<%=Model.list%>");
myChart.render("Graph");
</script>
So in my XMLController I simply have a method like this
public ActionResult Graph(FusionChartsList list)
{
return View(list);
}
So my question is... how can I get the object to actually populate when passing it as url parameter??

View 2 RepliesI am creating a web application with back-end on ISeries.In the page load I am populating a datatable and using it as a datasource for my gridview.
What is the best possible way to access the data in the datatable from other methods, on the same page? And in other pages?
The way I do currently is to get data from the gridview and populate in another datatable and then use it... Is there a better (elegant) way to do that?

I'm using Asp.net c# language programming. What is the best way for authenticating web methods in a web service? Is it right having authentication for every web method and verify user name and password for each web method? Is there a way to authenticate just once not for every web method? something like using sessions and etc?
View 2 RepliesI just wanted to ask the procedure of email verification, whats the best method. So far i have a class that stores the information from the register.aspx form, then i send out an email to the user, but what should i send him, should i send the user a guid?. Also my membership class that stores the register data is stored in a session, is this a good idea, becuase if the user session times out then the membership class will be nothing and the user will be prompted to register again in a Session Timeout webpage, is this a good method?
But what if i send the user a guid and then store the user data to the database with the guid and then check the email guid with the corresponding user guid in the database, what should i do?Also i have a Regular expression that checks that the email is valid, its not that good yet and i havent tested it properly, is there free email verification api's out there?

I'm building a new ASP.NET MVC application (in C#) and one of the requirements is to create a new database of members. For this, we'd need roles to manage the different types of members and profiles to manage the additional metadata attached to each member. So far so good, just use the standard MembershipProvider, RoleProvider and ProfileProvider provided as part of the .NET Framework.
However, the catch is that I'd like to allow different authentication methods. I'd like Accounts and Login Credentials to have a one-to-many relationship (one account can have a number of login credentials attached). A user for example, might have both an OpenID and ActiveDirectory account attached to their account.
However, after experimenting with a few ways we opted for the MembershipProvider route (explained how it was achieved as an answer below).
It appears to be something that is achieved on quite a number of sites, yet a search on here doesn't return anything solid to play around with.
EDIT: After looking around for a good period of hours overnight and this morning - I'm still not convincinced that butchering a single MembershipProvider would have been the easiest option. Does having multiple MembershipProviders give the same effect?
BOUNTY EDIT: With no responses, I am assuming that there is no more optimal solution that the one I posted as an answer. Is this really the case? I'm offering a bounty to try and see if anyone has any further thoughts on this and whether there are better alternatives.
BOUNTY ACCEPT EDIT: I think that WIF is the answer as accepted below, for a .NET 4 release and maybe other versions as it probably works with 3.5. Other than that, maybe a butchered MembershipProvider or adapted one may still be relevant.
