I have a asp.net application which is written in the traditional method [SqlConnection. SqlAdapter.. ..] in data access layer, I can see that every time we are making a connection and using adapters. Code is written in a very dirty manner. I have been given the task to re write the application in standard/best practice way.
View 3 RepliesI need to create a sample project (for educational purposes) and I'm faced with the choice between Web Site Projects or Web Application Projects. This feels similar to the choice between C# and VB. My question isn't about the differences between these 2 choices, but rather which is more popular (relevant, recognizable) to the general ASP.NET community.Has anyone seen any statistics in terms of adoption/usage of these 2 different project types? What project type should I use to reach the widest audience?Update: I created a poll on this subject - http://poll.fm/2e6cy
View 4 RepliesI just moved to a new PC and installed VS 2010. I copied all of my websites over from the old machine and now when I open the old websites on the new machine, they do not show up in my recent projects list on the start page. New websites that I make do show up there but the old ones do not. This is very inconvenient. Is there a way to make old projects that I open show up in the list?
This brings up another question. Is there a way to make a shortcut that will open VS2010 up with a website already loaded so that I don't have to go through the file open dialog every time?
I've seen some teams that start breaking into multiple projects from the beginning and others build behemoth single projects. The large project teams say that one massive project is easier to maintain than multiple smaller projects.
View 4 RepliesI want to deploy web application which contains many projects in one solution; data layer and business logic and UserInterface (which contains the login.aspx) projects in addition to Subsonic folder for dealing with oracle Database Now, I want to run (deploy) this application in a remote IIS server I tried to copy all the solution in all its projects to the virtual directory at the IIS but it didn't work How can I do
View 6 RepliesI have a CMS application that manages multiple websites, today whenever i change the codebehind of one of these websites - i have to rebuild the dll for all websites, deploy it - this disconnects all current sessions and is really bad.
The iis is configured to listen to all domain requests, if the request is to one of the websites' domain , the application rewrites it, or example, if someone requests for http://www.example.com, and example.com is configured in the application to be website 12, it is rewritten to http://www.example.com/websites/12/default.aspx.
This is done for all websites.
We want to seperate the dlls of the websites from each other, and from the main CMS, we have a virtual directory to each websites, but when trying to rewrite to it, we discover that IIS support this (we get an "Could not load type '_12._Default'". error).
How can we perform this rewrite so it does rewrite to virtual directories, or if anyone has any other solution for the initial dll seperation problem.
I just installed VS 2005 on a Win Server 2003 box, and went to create a new web project. I noticed right away that the "Web" project was missing and found that the "Microsoft Web Application Projects" did not install on the server.I checked on a couple other boxes that have VS 2005 installed on them, and they all had "Microsoft Web Application Projects" installed. Does this not install on a Win 2003 box? How do I install this?
View 1 RepliesI have a multi-tiered application. I would like to publish the class libraries to UI developers to let them add to their web or windows projects to add all the functionality.
I would like to restrict access so only a certain project can be referenced. The reason is so that they do not refer to the data access layer directly and start making calls that would bypass the business logic built into the business tier.
UI->>Business Logic->>Data Access
So in other words, BL and DA are deployed as compiled assemblies. BL references DA. UI will reference BL, but I would like to strictly prevent any other project from referencing DA directly.
We have been building ASP.Net websites for many years. During this time we gathered a lot of knowledge of ASP.Net. We know what to use, a what not. One problem is still, persistently, bugging us. I hope to solve this for once and for all.
We have a fairly large solution with lots of aspx-files. All aspx-files reside in one Web Application Project. This single big WAP needs to be split in multiple smaller projects.
There are a number of ways to accomplish this, but I am still unsure what the best way would be. We use ASP.Net 4.0 and Visual Studio 2010 Premium.
This is our current work-around (which we do not like)

I am just planning to create a blog type of web application. But i am not understanding how do i rewrite url's? say suppose site is xyz.com then when some user registers with name of T then he can visit blog at T.xyz.com? As you can see the url's will keep on changing dynamically.
I don't want to keep creating sub domains for each new user joined on the site. How can i achieve this?

View 4 RepliesI have 2 sollutions (1 CMS, 1 Customer specific with controls). The customer controls are coppied (with xcopy) to the CMS location. In the web.config of the CMS the specific controls are registered.The controls are useing functions from the CMS dll as well.How can I debug those two solutions as it where only one? I tried to start the CMS in debug mode with breakpoints in de CMS and customer controls, in this case only the breakpoints in the CMS are used. If I run the customer controls in debug mode only the braekpoint in this solution are used.The CMS is running on my local IIS 7.
View 1 RepliesI once asked for a way to let a linkbutton pass more than one value in the commandArgument and then I reached the approach where I pass a string of multiple values separated by any character and split it into it's original parts...that didn't work out I don't know what was wrong with the splitting!
Now I tried the only solution I got, which is created a user control of the LinkButton and add properties to accept any values nedeed!...could you please tell me what's wrong with my 2 approaches and which is better ?
The first question can be found here : link text
and this is the code for the user control approach >>
MultivaluedLinkButton.ascx :
<asp:LinkButton ID="LnkBtnSort" runat="server" Text="Sort" OnClick="LnkBtnSort_Clicked"/>
MultivaluedLinkButton.ascx.cs :
public partial class MultivaluedLinkButton : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
public event EventHandler Click;
private int _sortingType;
private string _sortingFactor;
private string _text;
public int SortingType
{
set { _sortingType = value; }
get { return _sortingType; }
}
public string SortingFactor
{
set { _sortingFactor = value; }
get { return _sortingFactor.ToString(); }
}
//public string Text
//{
// set { _text = value; }
// get { return _text.ToString(); }
//}
protected void LnkBtnSort_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if( Click != null )
{
this.Click(this, EventArgs.Empty);
}
}
}
Finally, Here's the implementation of my control inside an aspx page:
protected void MultivaluedLinkButton1_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MultivaluedLinkButton ctrl = (MultivaluedLinkButton)sender;
using (SqlConnection cn1 = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["testConnectionString"].ConnectionString))
{
using (SqlCommand cm1 = new SqlCommand(commandString2, cn1))
{
cm1.Parameters.Add("@arrange_by_id", System.Data.SqlDbType.Int);
cm1.Parameters["@arrange_by_id"].Value = ctrl.SortingType;
cn1.Open();
using (SqlDataReader dr1 = cm1.ExecuteReader())
{
SortBy_rpt.DataSource = dr1;
SortBy_rpt.DataBind();
}
}
}
}
The item template of the repeater in the implementation page :
<ItemTemplate>
<uc1:MultivaluedLinkButton ID="MultivaluedLinkButton1" runat="server" OnClick="MultivaluedLinkButton1_Clicked" SortingType='<%#Eval("arrange_by_id")%>' />
</ItemTemplate>
My team is creating several solutions to develop separate branches of the same site. We have some CSS, partials, and master view files that we would like to somehow share between solutions. I have tried linking files but that has to be done for each and every file (cannot link directories, it seems). Does anyone have a tried and true system for doing this sort of thing for larger sites (other than putting everything in one massive solution)?

View 4 RepliesI'm designing a framework solution DLL with reusable code that I like to use for many different projects,
I want this DLL to be able to load unknown configuration variables dynamically based on the solution its running from.
I like to load my config variables like this: MyConfig.MyVariableX
Hopefully I can also to validate my variables when the web application loads (by type) and make sure it's not missing(otherwise Throw New ApplicationException("Missing..."))
It would also be nice if I can have intellisense on these variables
I want solution A (web application) to have the configuration variables and solution B (DLL) to load the variables from the configuration file in solution A
I'm thinking maybe I should create a database table to hold the variables with types and stuff...
What would be the best way to do it ?
How can I read unknown list of variables names and values from a config file and populate my class with it on runtime ?
My computer's operating system is WIndows 7.I right click a solution file and choose open with notepad by accidently,then after i open my Visual studio 2008 in windows 7,all the solutions are displayed as notepad open mode,i want to change back to normal solution file open mode,How coul i do that?Actually for all the other files,if i right cliked,it will default as notepad,i can not remove this notepad mode.that is odd.

View 1 RepliesI have an URL like that :
/eng/myfolder/mycategory.aspx
I would like to transform it in something like:
index.aspx?FolderId=2&LanguageId=1&CategoryID=12
In a word I want to "write" that,
eng => languageId=2 and myfolder => FolderId=2 and mycategory.....
I don't know if i make myself clear but
with http://mywebsite.com/fr/default
Right Now i have :
<add key = "/en/default" value = "default.aspx?LanguageId=1" />
<add input = " {Rewrite:{REQUEST_URI}}" pattern = "default.aspx?(.+)" />
<action type="rewrite" url="default.aspx?{C:1}" appendQueryString="False" />
But i want Something more global like:
<add key = "/en" value = "LanguageId=1" />
<add input = " {Rewrite:{REQUEST_URI}}" pattern = "(.+)" />
< action type="rewrite" url="default.aspx?{C:1}" appendQueryString="False" />
I have 2 projects, where they both can upload attachments into a directory.
The problem is how do you get the projects to be able to access each others attachments or even save these attachments in the same folder...
At the moment my ProjectA saves uploads into its "uploads" folder... But when you are running ProjectB it doesnt have the same uploads folder (if that makes sense)
e.g.
ProjectA uploads folder: localhost:50732uploads
ProjectB uploads folder: localhost:50331uploads
I want these projects to be able to view attachments that the "other" project has uploaded.
it's possible for multiple projects to reference/share the same bin folder?
