http://www.templatemonster.com/[^] this site contains some pretty good samples. For a small price you can buy those and use them in your site. I usually look there to get some inspiration for the general look for a site.

Greetings all. Just joined and this is my first post. Sorry if this is the incorrect forum
I am currently working on a project where certain actions must happen within a given date range, if this date passes then my web app needs to do things.
For instance a customer purchases an item. The item gets marked with Purchase made on DATE, the seller then has 14 days to ship. If 14 days pass then I need the application to end the transaction and return the money to the buyer like a refund.
This isn't something that I feel should be triggered by any user action, but instead should be something that is automatically run every evening at Midnight. I am still rather new to ASP.Net but I am looking for a functionality similar to that provided by CRON on Linux/Apache Servers, where I can specify code being run at a set time/date etc...
Any assistance in this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You could create a windows service that can run at a specified interval in the background, or you could create a sql server job for the same purpose.
|

|

Thanks can you point me in the direction of creating either of these things? Never done either of them before, although the sql server job sounds like it will fit the bill. Know any links to tutorials for it?
Thanks again

hi
Using C# / ASP.NET I am calling a couple of C++ routines from a tried and tested DLL. I have a test binary on the server which also calls the same routines. The DLL reads from a data provider.
Using the following test plan:-
1. Read data via DLL interop call
2. Change source (via a different app)
3. Read data via DLL interop call
Using the binary harness, the results from 1 and 3 are different, reflecting the change made in 2. Using the ASP.NET, the results of 1 and 3 show the same data - ie not showing the results.
I've wrapped the output with timestamps and spooled out to a file which proves teh ASPX page is being called, and the interop DLL method is being called, but some 'magical' thing inside IIS seems to say, 'Youve just called this with the same parameters - here, have the data back you got first time', which is no good.
Cutting to the chase,
1 - am I talking b******s?
2 - if not, can I force IIS to not cache any results from interop calls. The page making the calls definately isn't cached, just the result from the interop call.
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport "d:/data/inetpub/focs/bin/MonkeyCfg.dll")]
public static extern long GetBatchJobSize(string str , ref long i);
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("d:/data/inetpub/focs/bin/MonkeyCfg.dll")]
public static extern void GetBatchJob(string str , System.Text.StringBuilder buf);
UPDATE : Killing the w3wp.exe process which is holding the DLL open resolves the problem. So this leads to the real question - how can I ensure the DLL is unloaded after each call?
Regards
Angel

I'm going to keep answering my own question as I find out more and more until a) I either get it working, or b) somebody reads this thread and puts me out of my misery...
I now know you can't unload assemblies explicitly in asp.net. But...you can create an appdomain, run the assembly in there and unload the appdomain, effectively unloading the assembly....cool....sounds just like what i need....except...
I now can't work out how to create a domain and call my interop method. If it was an exe, no problem, but can't find anything on launching a DLL in a separate domain.

Angel

When you load up a DLL in a separate AppDomain, you don't need to have it run like an exe, but you have to treat it like a remote. Everything has to be done by proxy. Use the CreateInstanceAndUnwrap method on the AppDomain to initialize an object of a particular type in the AppDomain and get a proxy to it. The type you create must have MarshalByRefObject marked on it. Look here[^]

<br />
public class MonkeyDLL : MarshalByRefObject<br />
{<br />
public string LoadBatch(string batchName)<br />
{<br />
long i = 0;<br />
<br />
GetBatchJobSize(batchName, ref i);<br />
<br />
System.Text.StringBuilder buf1 = new System.Text.StringBuilder(((int)(i + 10)));<br />
GetBatchJob(batchName, buf1);<br />
<br />
return buf1.ToString();<br />
}<br />
<br />
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("d:/data/inetpub/focs/bin/MonkeyCfg.dll")]<br />
public static extern long GetBatchJobSize(string str, ref long i);<br />
<br />
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("d:/data/inetpub/focs/bin/MonkeyCfg.dll")]<br />
public static extern void GetBatchJob(string str, System.Text.StringBuilder buf);<br />
<br />
};<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
MonkeyDLL monkey = new MonkeyDLL();<br />
AppDomain ad = AppDomain.CreateDomain("MonkeyDomain");<br />
<br />
MonkeyDLL remoteWorker = (MonkeyDLL)ad.CreateInstanceAndUnwrap(<br />
"d:/data/inetpub/focs/bin/MonkeyCfg.dll",<br />
"Worker"); <--FAILS HERE<br />
<br />
cached_batch batch = new cached_batch();<br />
batch.BatchName = job;<br />
batch.XMLContent = remoteWorker.LoadBatch(job); ;
<br />
AppDomain.Unload(ad);<br />
? - What is the second param in CreateInstanceAndUnwrap for? My DLL contains only two methods listed earlier in the thread.
Fails with
System.IO.FileLoadException: COuld not load file or assembly 'd:/data/inetpub/focs/bin/MonkeyCfg.dll' or one of its dependencies.
The given assembly name or codebase was invalid.
The DLL calls works fine through 'normal' interop, so the path is correct, the dependencies are there. I attempted to switch the assembly in CreateInstanceAndUnwrap with notepad, ir c:/winnt/system32/notepad.exe and got the same error.
Can you hammer home what mundane stupid thing I have missed please, or am I missing the whole plot?!?
Cheers
Regards
Angel

I am determined to get there...
I have just tried
<br />
MonkeyDLL remoteWorker = (MonkeyDLL)ad.CreateInstanceFromAndUnwrap(<br />
"d:\\data\\inetpub\\focs\\bin\\MonkeyCfg.dll",<br />
"MonkeyDLL");<br />
and now being told "the module was expected to contain an assemly manifest". The DLL in question is an 'old' unmanaged C++ DLL.
Any more ideas?
Regards
Angel

Well, anytime you call an unmanaged DLL from managed code, you have to create an interop. For instance, when you add a reference to your project for a COM DLL, Visual Studio creates an interop DLL for you. Make your calls to that interop DLL instead.

Hi all,
Can anybody help me? actually i am getting data from database and i am displaying it in DIV tag. if the data is which is in HTML i mean tags of the HTML data is not propely ended the data is not displaying properly. and the alignment goes ugly. can anybody help me how to restrict it. But dont say that correct it in database. how can i find that and solve that problem perminantly.
Thanks a crore in advance
Thanks and Regards
Venkat

As the database is the permanent storage, that is the only place you can permanently fix it. The only other option is to write a HTML parse that the data goes through before it gets to you presentation layer, but considering the difficulties people have parsing HTML, shown by no two browsers being identical, I don't think this is the way to go.
The key reason is you say the tags aren't ended properly - how would you know where to end them? Especially when you started getting nested divs, spans, tables etc.
Good luck!
Regards
Angel

i want to ask you how to add a user & how to create a role in the web.config file & also from the web form by designing an interface that contains some textbxeses & some labels to let the user rergister his informations , his ppassword & login & ...

You could buy VS 2005, or Microsoft are currently giving a 180 day trial of 2005 professional. I don't think asknig somebody to FTP you a commercial piece of software is a good idea - certainly not on this site anyway!

Angel
