Idealy i would like to get a web-page that looks like the popup-windows that you get in Visual Studio when you click an object while debugging. So if the object contains any arrays, i'd also like to see what's in them, and for all those objects inside i would also like to be able to go deeper into those objects.
The reason i'm asking this, is that I can't debug my code locally (because it uses a web-service that will only run on the production), and I can't install Visual Studio on the production server, So i need to be able to actually debug on the production server. I can write my code locally though, and upload it to the production.
I've posted the same question in the Object Data Source forum. This is a link to it http://forums.asp.net/t/1554083.aspx. Maybe I should've posted here to begin with. There seemed to be some overlap so I wasn't sure which was the best on to post the question in.
I'm trying to get a better understanding of how I could've designed my app so that the Object Data Source could work with the properties of my business objects. Please read the other post to see how it's currently being done. Sorry for the link to the other page. I didn't want to post a bunch of duplicate information. I would love to get some suggestions for alternative ways of doing this.
I have a 3rd party server side control that generates JavaScript and I'd like to see what methods and properties it exposes.Currently I just type in an invalid function like asdf123() so VS will break and I can add a watch to the variable, but there are a ton of methods and I don't know what I'm looking for (I'm trying to make the control do something undocumented).
I'm working on an application that uses an approach to localization where they just call a translate function for every piece of text on a page. It leads to a lot of redundant code that looks like this (psuedocode):
function page_load():
translateControlText(control1, language); translateControlText(control2, language); translateControlText(control3, language); translateControlText(control4, language); translateControlText(control5, language); translateControlText(control6, language); translateImageAlt(image1, language); 100 more lines of this on a single page
The application is massive, so I don't have the opportunity to rewrite the translation logic. However, I think I could just loop through all of the controls on a page, check their type, and translate the appropriate property. At least then I would just have to call 1 function per page, and then throw it in a base page or master. However, I probably wouldn't want to translate certain things, such as table cells. Regardless, there is an attribute called Localizable that is on many properties such as Control.Text and Image.Alt. I'd like to be able to get a list of every string on the Page that is stored in a Property marked Localizable. Is this possible? Is this possible without reflection?
I'd like to add some custom instance properties to an ASP.Net User object. for example, I'd like to log every user's login and have something like: User.LoginTimes or calculate the User Profile's Completion percentage and be able to access it like: User.ProfileInfoPercentage, etc.
Now What I'd like to know is what would be the best approach to do this?
Forget about user instances? (e.g. define a database table with userid and ProfilePercentage info and retrieve data from profile like: DB.GetProfilePercentage(Context.Current.User.UserID) ) Override the ASP.Net User class and add my own functionalities. Use Extension methods for the user class.
I am interested to know what happens with unused properties of a class when an object is instantiated?
Are there performance hits for having additional unused properties? What about complex properties that are accessing the database, but I'm not using them, are they still being loaded?
I am using ASP.NET MVC 2.0 and I want to transfer my ViewModel properties to business object. I can do this manually or use AutoMapper or use new method available in ASP.NET MVC 2.0. My question is that does anyone know the name of the new method which allows to copy the properties from one object to another?
In the past I've used UserControls to create email templates which I can fill properties on and then use LoadControl and then RenderControl to get the html for which to use for the body text of my email. This was within asp.net webforms.
I'm in the throws of building an mvc website and wanted to do something similar. I've actually considered putting this functionality in a seperate class library and am looking into how I can do this so that in my web layer I can just call EmailTemplate.SubscriptionEmail() which will then generate the html from my template with properties in relevant places (obviously there needs to be parameters for email address etc in there).
I wanted to create a single Render control method for which I can pass a string to the path of the UserControl which is my template. I've come across this on the web that kind of suits my needs:
[code]....
Does that make sense? I was just wondering if this is at all possible in the first place and how I'd implement it? I'm not sure if it would be possible to map the properties set on 'object' to properties on the loaded user control and if it is possible where to start in doing this?
I have advice that this might work for programmatically filling a set of literals from a set of object properties:-
[code]....
However, the line: ctl.Text = pageData.help(i).trim() fails because it's not understood that pageData.help(i) should translate to pageData.help1, pageData.help2, etc.
I have a WCF service that when the objects serialize to clients an extra property is getting added with a 'Speficied' suffix. At first I thought it had to to with a couple of nullable type properties, but it is happening to all of my value types even if it is not declared Nullable. How can I get rid of this?
Recently I started a project and added a HTML file in it. I modified the HTML file and run it in Visual Studio to see the output. When I tried to validate the HTML file, I found some strange characters got appended. This is quite annoying, although I am not able to see those unexpected characters, I wonder what is the cause of the problem. I didn't adjust anything in control panel of the IIS server, I didn't modify the Web.config file. I tried to add another HTML file and put the same content into it, the same problem occured. Could someone tell me how should I troubleshoot the problem?
I am developing a webiste in ASP.NET. On one of the pages page named menu.aspx, with the help of a certain login, I am getting the output in this format
foo({"1":"Jeff","2":"Mik","5":"Tom"});
I am using this code to get the output on the JSON form.
[Code]....
However, I must get the output only in simple JSON on the page without any HTML.
For eg: Here's the screenshot showing the source of the output page. [URL]
Notice that it has only the JSON string as the output.
And here's the screenshot showing the output page source (with HTML). [URL] .This HTML is what I have to remove. How can do I do this? The full code of menu.aspx.cs is putup here. [URL]
I'd like to know one (or more) ways to parse the HTML page output. I'd like to detect some patterns on the HTML that will be send to the client and log some info if present.
i query a database for retreiving all the columns. I will probably have many rows. Im trying to output the query results into an html table. This is what i have so far:
[code]....
How could i store the many rows and output them using html as soon as i open a page?
I have a window service that at a particular time sends a fax to the destination.The requirement is that the fax content should be in the specified format. The fax data also contains some dynamic data that is retrieved from the database. According to my understanding i need to write all the data to an html page and then convert into a pdf file and then send the fax.
The problem here is that how to create a html page through code. even if the html page is created how can i convert its output to pdf?As the browser is not involved in this case.
I'm trying to modify the output of my GridView in the RowDataBound event handler, but it's not working - nothing happens.
My code:
Private Sub MyGridView_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles MyGridView.RowDataBound e.Row.Attributes.Add("data-xkoordinat", 0) End Sub
[Code]....
Is there anything here that would cause the rows not to be databound? I'm reloading via F5 or by selecting the address field in my browser and hitting Enter, so I don't think postbacks should be an issue.
I know how to deploy and retrieve a single element in LINQ, but how can I do to change all the properties in a list. In the line below, I can only modify a record, I would modify several.
