Hi
For the database reader e.g. dr.GetInt32(column0),
what will it get if the database record value is null for the column ?
Will it get 0 ?
Thanks

It should throw an InvalidCastException if the column is null. You need to check for null before attempting the cast.
|

|

sorry,
I just mean that the cell in database is null, but not the column is null, so will it return zero ?
|

You'll get an exception. 0 is a perfectly valid value, and NULL means no value at all. So, you have to use the IsDBNull method to determine if a field is null.
int ordAge = rdr.GetOrdinal("Age");
if(!rdr.IsDBNull(ordAge))
{
Console.WriteLine("Age: {0}", rdr.GetInt32(ordAge));
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("No age specified.");

Since I have no idea what the application is, why it needs to generate a file (why not just hold the sensitive data in memory?), or any other detail I can only speculate on what security options are available. As I said, a file lock does not secure the contents of the file. You need to actually use security to do that. There is plenty of documented stuff on principals, NTFS file permissions and other stuff (encryption on the application and file system level). Since I don't know what you are trying to do I can't tell what is best.

Hi everybody,
I have a form with a listview, among other stuff, and a "print" button. What i want to do is like having a template, and each time i print something, depending in what i've selected from the listview, i have to replace some text in that document with the value of the selected item in the list view. Of course, i have to make sure that the formatting part is also done (spaces between lines, titlesand so on). Can you recomand me the best way?
Thank you!

I'm running into a program successfully sharing a C# program with a fellow developer. We're each working on separate aspects of an application on our local drives, but sharing updates via a network. When we upload the C# application from the network, the DataAdapters for our projects need to be reconnected through the 'Configure Data Adapter' despite the fact that we hold the database for the project in the same location on our local drives. Is there a way to avoid that?

You should consider making the "location of the database" a config file setting. You can have a layered approach to config files such that there is a generic application config file and your user settings config file.

I have a suggestion: don't abuse computer resources you don't own. Easier and more cost effective than any code we can give you. Since you want the solution cheap, this is all the advice I can afford to give you.

nice words but...that's not the only reason..
i'm curious and i want learn the C#..
i think the first step is to make the programs which i need (i'm speaking generally).
so if u want to to help me i'll be glad..on the contrary no problem..

What you want is probably impossible without using low level API calls. This is not a good way to learn a language, even if you were already familiar with the relevant api from C/C++ work.

Hi guys!
XmlSerializer is giving me troubles again... 
I have a custom collection (derived from CollectionBase) that I want to serialize.
In addition to just holding the items I want the collection to have additional properties like a name, for example:
[Serializable]
MyCollection : CollectionBase
{
public MyCollection() {}
public MyCollection(string name)
{
this._name = name;
}
private string _name;
public string Name
{
get { return _name; }
set { _name = value; }
}
... overrides for CollectionBase methods ...
}
The problem is that XmlSerializer serializes the items, but doesn't serialize a single of my additional properties.
Does anyone know what I can do?
TIA,
mav

Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately, I didn't find anything on the topic that XmlSerializer doesn't serialize additional properties for ICollectionBase-derived classes.
While searching for a solution, I found a workaround somewhere else, though: By putting the additional properties in a separate class and having the collection as another property I could get the XmlSerializer to serialize the new class with the collection and an additional name.
[Serializable]
public clss MySettings
{
public MySettings() {}
private string _name;
public string Name
{
get { return _name; }
set { _name = value; }
}
private MyCollection _items = new MyCollection();
public MyCollection Items
{
get { return _items; }
}
}Regards,
mav

You have to use Arrays with the XMLSerializer. Dont even try other collections :p
