Hi all.
I need to create a plugin that use a similar Visual Programming Language interface of Rhino3D Grasshopper, LabView or Ms Robotics Developer Studio GUI, but I haven't found anything on the web.
If there is an open source project like it, I couldn't rewrite the VPL from scratch.
Someone knows something similar project? Confused | :confused:

ASP.NET not executing Oracle query

Hi all

When I execute this query in Oracle I get perfect results.

1. SELECT * FROM TOTAL_CASES
2. WHERE (TRIM("NTN") = TRIM(:NTN)
3. OR '%'||upper("NAME")||'%' LIKE '%'||upper(:NAME)||'%')
4. AND (upper(TRIM("STATUS")) LIKE nvl(upper(TRIM(:STATUS)),'%'||''||'%'))

It means that if :STATUS is NULL then give all results matching step 3 or 4. If there is a value for :STATUS then also filter results according to that value.

This query gives accurate results when executed in SQL. However, I also use this to populate a Data Grid in ASP.NET. When STATUS is NULL in ASP.NET, the Data Grid shows no results. However, when I select value for the STATUS, then it shows results according to the value chosen for STATUS.

Please help me as to how to populate Data Grid when I select no value for STATUS.

Thanks.

hi hammad

it is possible that your page is passing a blank string instead of NULL to the query.

check if the following works in line 4

AND (upper(TRIM("STATUS")) LIKE ('%' || upper(TRIM(nvl(:STATUS,'%')) || '%')

i havent been able to check it but hope that helps.

Hello all,

I have a problem using activex in my asp.net webpage..
I have developed an activex control code:
Public str As String
Public lastpath As String

Event Acceptpath(str As String)

Private Sub Drive1_Change()
Dir1.path = Drive1.Drive
End Sub

Private Sub Submit_Click()
Text1.Text = Dir1.path
RaiseEvent Acceptpath(Dir1.path)
End Sub

Public Property Let Last(path As String)
lastpath = path
PropertyChanged "Last"
MsgBox (lastpath)
End Property

Public Property Get Last() As String
Last = lastpath
End Property

'Public Property Let Last(path As String)
'lastpath = path
'PropertyChanged "Last"
'End Property

Private Sub Last_Click()
Dir1.path = lastpath
MsgBox (lastpath)
End Sub

Private Sub UserControl_Initialize()
Dir1.path = "E:\Myproject\controls"
End Sub

Private Sub UserControl_ReadProperties(PropBag As PropertyBag)
lastpath = PropBag.ReadProperty("Last")
End Sub

Private Sub UserControl_WriteProperties(PropBag As PropertyBag)
Call PropBag.WriteProperty("Last", lastpath)
End Sub

I have created the CAB file and added to the asp.net page so I can see activex in my page when i run the code but when I send values to the activex control it is not showing any thing.. ASP.Net web code:

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true"  CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %>
<code>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Re: Program Icon when using a Setup Project

The properies for the link to the file in the setup project's file system view contain an "icon" field that lets you select the icon you want to show.

Be aware that the icon must be either copied as a separate file to the installation directory or embedded in the exe - the dialog box you bring up from the "icon" property will let you select one of these.

I hope I understood correctly what you need - to set the icon shown in the Programs menu for your executable.

You can find the "Icon" property this way:

- right click on the setup project's name in the Solution Explorer
- click on "View" and then on "File System"
- in the File System view select "User Program's Menu"
- locate the link to your executable, which will usually be under a folder in "User Program's Menu", and select it
- the "Properties" tab will now show the link's properties, including "Icon"

Hope it's all clear and it's what you need. Smile | :)

Too true! It's just nonsense that the icon is not taken automatically from the exe.

EnterpriseLibrary 4.1

Hi,

I've been asked to port a .net 1.1 application with entlib of january 2006 to .net 3.5 with entlib 4.1. It seems most things are transported okay, but some classes inherit from the ProviderData class. I am unable to locate it in the 4.1 package. I tried google, but somehow my googling skills have abandoned me.

The ProviderData class is present in entlib2006 under Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Configuration. (believe it's entlib version 1.1 as I don't have the installed packages, I only have a bunch of solution files with references).

Anyone knows where I can find it now or what action I should take to work around this problem?

Export DataSet To Excel [modified]

#realJSOP18-Aug-09 2:53

18-Aug-09 2:53

I found some code on the net that allows me to export a dataset/datatable to Excel, and as far as I know the code works (it actually creates a XML file with a ".xls" extension.

However, when I try to open the file in Excel, it displays as an XML file. The first part of the file looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<?mso-application progid="Excel.Sheet"?>
<ss:Workbook xmlns:ss="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet">
  <ss:Styles>
    <ss:Style ss:ID="General" />
    <ss:Style ss:ID="Number">
      <ss:NumberFormat ss:Format="General Number" />
    </ss:Style>
    <ss:Style ss:ID="DateTime">
      <ss:NumberFormat ss:Format="General Date" />
    </ss:Style>
    <ss:Style ss:ID="Currency">
      <ss:NumberFormat ss:Format="Currency" />
    </ss:Style>
    <ss:Style ss:ID="ShortDate">
      <ss:NumberFormat ss:Format="Short Date" />
    </ss:Style>
  </ss:Styles>
  <ss:Worksheet ss:Name="Sheet1">
    <ss:Table>
      <ss:Row>
        <ss:Cell>

In Notepad, the VS IDE, and Word, the xml appears exactly as you see it above. In Excel, there's a few weird characters preceding the first < character - I don't know if this is an indication of what's wrong, but I thought I'd mention it. Can anyone help?

EDIT===============================================================

I also tried to use DataSet.WriteXML, and that file acts the same way.

I also tried opening the file in OpenOffice and it does the same thing as Excel.

What version of Excel are you using? I just tried to load your XML in Excel 2002, and it doesn't show any strange characters at the start. When I enter some data and save, the structure gets modified to this;

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Workbook xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"
 xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"
 xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel"
 xmlns:ss="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"
 xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">
<Worksheet ss:Name="Sheet1">
  <Table ss:ExpandedColumnCount="1" ss:ExpandedRowCount="2" x:FullColumns="1"
   x:FullRows="1">
   <Row>
    <Cell><Data ss:Type="String">Hello</Data></Cell>
   </Row>
  </Table>
  <WorksheetOptions xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel">
   <Selected/>
   <Panes>
    <Pane>
     <Number>3</Number>
     <ActiveRow>1</ActiveRow>
    </Pane>
   </Panes>
   <ProtectObjects>False</ProtectObjects>
   <ProtectScenarios>False</ProtectScenarios>
  </WorksheetOptions>
 </Worksheet>
</Workbook>

This seems to work on both 2002 and 2007, but Excel punishes me whenever I try to remove the header. I'm guessing that that's not the problem, and that your document is somehow not encoded as UTF-8. Have you copied/pasted fragments across a language-barrier?

Hi Guys -

I've been experimenting with MSBuild, and in my quest for meaninful output, have found an odd problem with displaying messages:

I have the following section:

<Target Name="MyAfterBuild">
	<Message Text="==================MESSAGE=================="/>
	<Warning Text="==================WARNING=================="/>
	<Error Text="==================ERROR=================="/>
<Target/>

Which displays an Error Message, a Warning Message, but no normal Message in the error list.

I have set the MSBuild output to Max, and set the message Importance to High, but still it is not displaying any output. What can i do to fix this?

Regards

Hi all,

I want to know how we can change JIT compiler for our application. As per my knowledg when we use VS.Net IDE, we get a standard JIT. What if I want pre-JIT or econo-JIT? How I can change mode of compilation.....

There's two article's on CodeProject that might help you;

* Pre-compile (pre-JIT) your assembly on the fly, or trigger JIT compilation ahead-of-time[^]

Enjoy the read Smile | :)

I am using VB.net, but samples in any language will do.
The problem is that I have to connect to a secure site with an invalid certificate. Every browser based control fails, so I have turned to raw sockets. The website is for internal use only, however its certificate is unverified.
I need to know what commands to send and how to respond over https. My socket app, so far, can connect to http, and even view pages. On https, any command like GET /url?parameters HTTP/1.1 gives me an empty response.
Thanks in advance.
