I am interested in designing/building a dashboard application which will include widgets that represent applications that might be developed in different languages/architectures (PHP, Java, ASP.NET).
View 1 Replies1) I have a question, many kind of applications / programs offer API's for integration.Is it possible to integrate any kind of application / program with any kind of application with the help of API ?i mean two completely different applications/programs with different database structure can still be integrated with each other with the help of API ?2) Where exactly is the API file stored ? i mean in order to integrate 2 applications i need to create an xml file ? and store it where ? or i have to do some modification in the code of my application in order to work with this api integration ? how it works..please guide me in a right direction....
3) Could anyone explain me how this API thing works ? i have been provided a PDF file by the application company that i need to integrate with my database based web application.now i have to make API connections in my code ? or how ?

View 1 RepliesWe are developing products that will be used in the following way:
Various shared libraries which may be used by multiple products. I anticipate these libraries will mostly need to access string resources that contain error messages/exceptions. Various end-user based applications, designed to run as standalone apps on a PC. They will be required to support multiple languages upon deployment/installation.
Various web-sites which may be required to support multiple languages either at deployment time or possibly at runtime (i.e. minimal or zero downtime). Potentially the site might need to support multiple languages at the same time if being accessed globally.
We may be required to allow customers access to our language files for editing themselves. We would not wish to allow them access to our source code (other than the resource files/dlls) in order to achieve this. We might need to incorporate a facility to log exceptions in our native language (English in this case) and display them in the translated language. This will us debug our customers solutions in the field.
I am already aware of products like RCWinTrans and handling multiple languages in VC++/MFC applications. However, the requirements we are faced with here are more extensive and thus require us to make a few up front decisions that could be difficult to change long term, so ideally we want to make the best choice now. Based on my own knowledge, I have a few questions although I may be missing some tricks with .net that will be happily received. Here are my questions:
What would be best? Put all our resources in a seperate DLL per VS solution OR put the resources in each VS project. The way I see it per solution is easier to manage, modify, and allow customer access. The per project solution seems cleaner though and makes the individual projects more portable. This method would apply to our shared library based solutions as well as our end-application based solutions.
Is it possible to have two seperate resource files loaded at once i.e. if we want to log the exceptions in English but supply them back up the food chain (as a message in an exception) in the translated language? Are there any tricks we can use to automate this like AOP?
Does anybody knows good, short and slim tutorials (not here ), which describe actual/modern web-application architectures / patterns (especially for ASP.NET based (classic and MVC) applications (maybe also with embedded Silverlight components) ? How would you you design today an ASP.NET application which uses different datasources (databases, services,...) ? Background: I has been away a couple of years writing web applications, and I want to start now again. So at the moment I am a little bit unsure, how to take off and find the right starting point.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to configure a websetup for the first time for our ASP.NET application which consists of 11 web services. Is it possible to create an msi that will install the app and the 11 web services and also set-up the app pools & create the apps in IIS? Or would I need an individual setup for each web service? Basically I need to make it as simple as possible for the client to release.
View 1 Repliesi have a recruitment section in an admin system for a website, and now my client wants the ability to select multiple applications at the same time, via a tick box, and attach them to an email.. For example, look at this image: [URL] You will see a list of applicants for jobs, i was thinking of having a checkbox which the user can select and then hit a button which opens an email window with all the Curriculum Vitae's (Resime's) attached.. These are already on the server, specific to users, but is what i am trying to do possible?? So selecting multiple applications and attaching the details, which is a word document to an email?? If so, can you show me an example of similar methods that have been done or even something that i can work from?
View 1 RepliesI have several applications in different domains with the same code, how feasible that through the admin domain [URL] read the file. aspx.
If I upgrade an application, I copied every current updates on all domains.
I could use to copy the file only once on the server [URL] and in all domains, the update fixes.
I have two identical applications setup on IIS on different virtual directories (I have done some workaround to ensure that they both have the same application name). Is there a way to share session id across two asp.net web applications?
Since I'm storing the session in StateServer, they should both be getting the same session data, however, a different session id is created everytime I go from application a to applicatino b. Wouldn't this happen in a load balancing scenario as well? Where when I go to www.test.com, it would redirect that request to server a, and then if I hit it again, it would go to server b, but since it's a different web application, it would create a new session id?
I have a question concerning website structure. I have a website which will be an intranet site. On this site I will have a main page that has links to different apps that will reside in this site. I want to separate the apps in their own folders.My question is do I just create a folder for each one or do I create a new webpage within the main webpage for each one? The reason I am asking is I use three layer model and my object data classes and db classes need to reside in App_Code folder. Do I put all these from every app in the one folder(on the main page) or if I create a site within a site can each have it's own App_Code folder. Also if I create the site within a site will I be able to redirect to different pages just by relative URLS(../cashmanagement) and everything work OK.I am pretty new to ASP and this is my first site with mutiple programs.
View 3 RepliesI want to deploy multiple asp.net applications on same hosting with subdomains. How it should be manged ?
I just created a subdomain and deploy application in its folder; when I tried to access application with subdomain it shows the following error:
An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.
I've set up two ASP.NET applications on a machine, their web.config files contain the same applicationName value in AspNetSqlMembershipProvider item so they share users and roles.
The problem sequence is:
user logs into application A,opens new tab in a browser logs into application B, his login in application A is signed out and vice versa.
Should I use a different approach to sharing login information between two applications?
I have three asp.net web applications
,Second and Third applications are accessed throught the first,So Authentication (form authentication) is happening from the first application only , all are deployed on same IIS with seperate virtual directory
Like
1.Localhost/EmpMananger
1. Localhost/Hr
2.Localhost/Payroll
, I used the same Entires in both <machineKey> and
<forms> Elements in webconfig file of all applications,
Applications are working fine and Page.User.Identity are available in all applications but once loginUrl and defaultUrl entry is changed to actual name other than localhost
Eg: localhost/EmpManager/default.aspx To myserver/EmpManger/default.aspx
the authentication ticket is not available in second and third applicaiton
how to structure our intranet. The way it's going right now is, that I'll create a web application that usually contains just a single web page and then deploy it. I'm using the file system deployment to deploy to a test server.
The file structure on this test server is something like "\serverwebintranetwebapplicationsAPP_NAME". I would create a folder on the server with whatever name to replace "APP_NAME" and then deploy into that folder. Everything deploys fine and is structured fine, none of the pages will load.
When try to load the page you get an error like: Could not load type 'WebInterface._Default'. The dll containing that code is definitely there. Inside the "APP_NAME" folder is the bin folder, config file, and the (usually) single aspx page. So for some reason, the web page can't find the dll files.
We are having a project which is for various online application systems for an educational institute. (Asp.Net 2.0 Web Site)
initially we developed all applications in single project with proper folder structure. but now we want to make each application as separate product.
all applications share single authentication(Obviusly this is single project) want to keep that way only.
I want to split project in smaller projects but want to keep shared authentication so how should i orgnise this project in IDE.
Also i need guidence on hosting such project
i should make small projects within single solution file. and at the time of publish amke single virtual directory to host the root project(login.aspx etc) and in subdirectories i should host other projects. so this way SSO(single sign on) across applications is possible ..
I've got a Visual Studio 2010 solution that has multiple web applications in it. I've set one as the startup project but when I debug Visual Studio is starting up a development server for each web application in my solution. Is there anyway I can have Visual Studio only start up the development server for just the default startup project?
View 2 RepliesI recently received a project that contains multiple web applications with no MVC structure. For starters I've created a library (DLL) that will contain the main Business Logic. The problem is with Caching - If I use the current web context cache object than I might end up with duplicate caching (as the web context will be different for every application).
I'm currently thinking about implementing a simple caching mechanism with a singleton pattern that will allow the different web sites (aka different application domains) to share their "caching wisdom". I'd like to know what is the best way to solve this problem.
I am using ASP.NET Membership with the default provider. I have a project where there are 3 different applications(seperated by the applicationName).

View 2 RepliesI currently have a website up and running and working correctly with godaddy.com using the out-of-the box authentication with an aspnetdb sqlserver database. I have users on this site and am very hesitant to change anything with this database or the web.config file from the working site for fear of wrecking it
So, my challenge is that I need to authenticate a separate application using the same aspnetdb.mdf file without any crossover to my 1st application. I've noticed that the ApplicationName that is currently in my aspnetdb database for the working application is just "/". I know that I'll need to have 2 separate entries in the aspnet_Applications table to define these two applications and then somehow register those names within their respective web.config files - but wanted to have step by step instructions on how to this so as to not "break" the 1st working application that is already live.
Can anyone point me to a document on what changes I will need to make?
Also, with the default create user wizards I'm using, how will it know to create the new user information with the correct application ID so that the user information from one application is not visible to managers of the second application and vice/versa?
I have more of the same applications.All tables are identical.Each application has a new user.These different applications are located in different domains such as.: domena1.com, domena2.com, domena3.com.Each domain has different users.
For each domain in the web.config change the "ApplicationName", eg.:
ApplicationName = domain1, ApplicationName = DOMAIN2, ApplicationName = domain3 ...
