what do you mean? Are you implying you can generate the same GUID in one computer? Huh!

Really, how did you get to this "Are you implying you can generate the same GUID in one computer?"
I said GUID is never a random number on one computer. Random. Use a GUID tool available out there and see for yourself.
GUID is not used to create a random number. It is used only to create a unique number.
For a GUID on one computer, several parameters are used (some of which are fixed some are dynamic) like netwok card ID, current time, etc.... so that when they are combined it is almost impossible to create the same GUID ever again during the time of the entire Universe (yes, that unique). Not random. Unique.
Now once this number is created, if you keep asking for another one on the same machine, you get numbers that are very close to each other, sometimes even in increasing order. Random? Not even close.
GUID could be taken maybe as somewhat random (or better say unpredictable) if you have computers in a network and then you take one time one GUID from each. Even then that is only one series with some form of randomness that you can get. But even a network card ID, time etc that are combined in a GUID have some format, so no, a GUID is really not random in any sense and should never be used as such unless a developer really need some form of "unknown, unpredictable number".

I've to re-read your message again and I guess I missed "never" in your statement. May be, you know, Day Light Saving (Summer Time) changed yesterday and I am still under the weather. Sorry for the mix up.
I know GuiD are not random, they are pseudo random.

As you wish but:
A GUID is a 128-bit integer (16 bytes) that can be used across all computers and networks wherever a unique identifier is required. Such an identifier has a very low probability of being duplicated.
A GUID has nothing in common with random numbers, it is as random as credit card number is random. You will probably not guess the number of my credit card but it is still not random, it is a structured number with very specific parts. The similar way GUID has structure and is not random.
A GUID can be based on a random generator, but we do not know wheather it is or not, and GUID library support on Microsoft
OS is not, so we should not use it for creating randomness.
However, if the size cost is acceptable, creating unique numbers using GUID's is a good solution, especially knowing that it is unique in the Universe  so we can move around records and we will never find two objects with the same ID.

I want to change color of the windows title bar so that it blinks when it is not focused i.e. it is minimized in the task bar. I want to achieve it when a new message arrives. I m using a web form and thus window is a browser window.Thanks in advance!!!

Between operating system issues, browser issues and security issues -- not to mention user annoyance issues -- I don't think this is possible.

How to use updatePanel without ScriptManager in ASP.NET. Is it possible to use it without ScriptManager
|
|
|
|
|
hey....
scriptManager is a server control that includes all the necessary javascript that the page needs to run the update panel. Update panel needs script manager as it is defined as mandatory in compiler. otherwise we may include all the javascript files it needs manually without including scriptmanager.
I dont think it is possible to use UpdatePanel without ScriptManager. In case you really need, create the updatepanel yourself..
|
|
|
|
|
yes, you'll create user control.

Any specific reason, you dont want to use scriptmanager ?
If you have more then 2 pages with scripmanager and it is giving you error when you try to use both the pages, then you can use ScriptManagerProxy in one of the page. Or you can add the ScriptManager in the "Master Page", and in all the content page you will able to use it.
Or you can use other 3rd party framework.

Hi!
I work with C #
I want update my columns in my GridView without going through edit :
for each row I click update button to update the line
how? Thank you.
|
|
|
|

I am not sure what you want. How can you update with out editing? If you want to read from updated data then you can do it, but someone has to update the data somehow in the first place.

Hi,
when you are projecting data to gridview ,pass the column id also (ex:if you projecting user info to gridview,then you can pass the user id also as invisble to end user) and by using that id at the runtime you can update the particular row...

call another process (say web service) to do the job.
The process may also spawn a new thread and run the sql scripts in background.

How can I use webservice. I don't have any idea about that. How can I use webservice online. Should it continue executing if I close the application?

Hi,
I have installed VS 2008 with framework 3.5 in my machine with win-xp as operating system and VS 2003 and VS 2005 also installed.
whenever i create any new web site in my VS 2008 it creates it at my local IIS but then when i compile and run the site i get http 404 page not found error.
My site has localhost in the path and the page that i m trying to browse is also at the same location still it gives page not found error.
Please if anyone can give some workable suggestions.
Thanks,
sabiha.

I believe you are selecting HTTP instated of file system while creating new project in VS.

Hey... in vs 2008 I dont think it creates local IIS entry, rather it runs in the developement server already included.
When you publish the website, there is some option given if you want to host to the server.

The default location set to File System. But if you want to change, you have two more option HTTP and FTP.
