I understand. min on a number field checks for the value itself and not the number of digits. Thanks for pointing it out.

Tested in regex101.com. It validates all the required patterns while dismissing the unrequired ones. Works good in Android Studio too.

priyamtheone 13-Mar-22 11:58am View

This is what I came up with ^[+|-]?(([0-9]\d{0,2}(,?\d{3})*)(\.\d+)?|(\.\d+))$

I think that allows optional thousand separators and also validates the patterns I mentioned in my original post. By far it looks correct to me.

That's what I switched to. However, in that case, most programmers suggest not to pass a double or float value to create a BigDecimal, as it may not be able to hold that value precisely. A string should always be used. So I wrote:

String str = "12345678.0123456789";
BigDecimal bd = new BigDecimal(str, MathContext.UNLIMITED);

This time, the value is being held properly with exact scale and precision. Seems like in my scenario, where the fractional part is dynamic, this is how I have to do it. Hold the actual value in a string or BigDecimal, and after performing all math operations, use the held value to check on the number of fractional digits and display the final number accordingly. This is what I could fathom by far. Thank you for pointing out the significant tips.

Now I understand the conversion part. There's just one challenge left. In my case, while assigning a value to the variable, how many digits will be there after the decimal is not fixed. It is a dynamic factor. For example, if I assign 12345678.123 to the variable in Activity1, the same 12345678.123 needs to be shown in Activity2. Again, if 12345678.123456 is assigned in Actvity1, the same needs to be shown in Activity2. So you can see the number of digits after the decimal is dynamic. Now, I can convert the scientific notation back to non-scientific form in Activity2 and show it. But before that, how do I identify how many digits after the decimal did the user assign to the variable in Actvity1? Because, right now I'm in Activity2 and the double value that I got from Activity1 is still in scientific notation. That's the only stumbling block. Any help on this issue, please?

Thanks for your help. It's working perfectly. Just one more thing. How do I add a comma as thousand separator to the integer part of the expression? That's the only challenge left now.

So, Java is converting the double value into a scientific number with an "e" to indicate the power of 10. OK, In understand. But question is, how do I change it to 12345678.68 back in the panel where I need to show it to the user in its original format? Any help on that part is appreciated.

The problem was found to be in Copy As Html, a sub-component of the actual extension. Already reported about it to the author on Git.

priyamtheone 13-Jan-22 10:25am View

@0x01AA: You go the root of the problem correctly, but the reference on the Microsoft site is too generalised for a beginner to understand. So it took me a while to get a grab on it through other references. The problem was with the NT AUTHORITY\IUSR not having any login in the SQL Server. Unlike .Net apps, IIS doesn't use the default Windows Authenticated login that comes with the SQL Server installation. It uses NT AUTHORITY\IUSR, which I was not aware of. But NT AUTHORITY\IUSR doesn't have any default login or DB user created for it in the SQL Server. You need to create them explicitly. Creating them and giving them respective privileges for your database solved the problem. Now I can login from PHP using SQL Server Authentication. Thanks for assisting. Appreciate your help.

priyamtheone 12-Jan-22 6:54am View

You were right, version mismatch was the problem. While I was using PHP-8.1, I downloaded the SQLSRV for PHP-8.0. Because of this mismatch the driver file wasn't loading during the start of the PHP in the server. Downgrading to PHP-8.0 solved the issue. Thank you for pointing out the crux of the issue.

priyamtheone 4-Jan-22 8:27am View

As far as PHP and MS-SQL Server documentations are concerned, I'm using PHP 8.1.1 which contains php8.dll and the respective SQL Server Driver, i.e., SQLSRV59. Here's the link for PHP https://windows.php.net/download#php-8.1 and here's the link for SQL Server Driver recommended for PHP 8.0 https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/connect/php/system-requirements-for-the-php-sql-driver?redirectedfrom=MSDN&view=sql-server-ver15. The only difference is I'm using PHP 8.1.1. But if you visit the link for SQL Server Driver, in the section "Microsoft Drivers 5.9 for PHP for SQL Server", scroll down to PHP version 8.0. There, it's written the driver dll can be used with 64-bit php8.dll, and that's exactly what my PHP 8.1.1 uses, i.e., php8.dll. That's why I downloaded this driver. So what do you suggest me to do now? Delete my current installation of PHP 8.1.1 and get back to PHP 8.0? Moreover, the error warning you quoted above is also shown for the "missing" php_wincache.dll that is actually present in the ext directory of PHP. So why is it throwing the "unable to load dynamic library" error for php_wincache.dll too? Any suggestion, please?

@dindayaldhakar: No, that dot needs to be there, as I'm concatenating the variable $name with the rest of the string. Rather, I made a mistake in not inserting another dot after the $location variable in the same echo statement. However, the main problem was something else that I explained in my own answer posted below.

priyamtheone 18-Mar-21 15:19pm View

Thanks for the tutorial references. They'll definitely be helpful in improving my knowledge base.

priyamtheone 18-Mar-21 14:37pm View

OriginalGriff: Thanks for the explanation. After going through it, I'll make two assumptions based on the context of C# language: 1) If we write

int* p = &a;

, the pointer variable will hold the memory address of the int variable a (suppose 1001).

2) If p is currently holding 1001, then writing

return *p;

will return the value being held at the memory location of 1001.

Am I right to make the above two assumptions?

priyamtheone 18-Mar-21 14:22pm View

@Maciej Los: Thanks for the MSDN article. It was really helpful in comprehending the topic. I bookmarked it.

Just two things to clear after reading the topic- In C, &a gets the memory address of the int variable a. So, in C#, does writing

int* p = &a;

hold the memory address of a (suppose 1001) in the pointer variable?

Secondly, in C, if p = 1001, then *p returns the value being held at the memory location of 1001. So, if we write

return *p;

in C#, will it return the value being held at the memory location of 1001 the same way in C?

priyamtheone 18-Mar-21 12:52pm View

@BillWoodruff: I'm not asking to write unsafe code. I'm just asking how to write the C# equivalent to the C function, especially, how do we make use of pointer concepts like &i and *p in C#. For example, &i holds the memory address of the variable i. So how do we get the memory address of a variabe in C#? Similarly, if p = 100, then *p returns the value being held at the memory location of 100. So, how do we do this in C#?

However, I have a few questions.

1) While trying to open Index.html with "live-server Index.html" in command prompt, though the page is opening but an error is showing in the console saying: 'Failed to load module script: The server responded with a non-JavaScript MIME type of "text/html". Strict MIME type checking is enforced for module scripts per HTML spec.' Why is this happening? Why can't I use the default port of 8080?

2) Why couldn't I rename Index.js to Index.mjs? While doing so why couldn't Visual Studio recognise it as a JavaScript module file and messing up all the internal codes? As per the current JS protocols, .mjs is a special kind of file introduced to signify JavaScript modules. So why can't I use it?

3) After starting a live-server session through command prompt, how can I terminate it without closing the command prompt window? It seems, once the live-server starts, there's no way you can input any command in the command prompt. So how do I exit from it? Please clarify my questions.

import { Person } from "./Person.js";

priyamtheone 14-Feb-21 8:35am View

Thanks for the update. I installed node and live-server. Thereafter, this is what I did:

1) In Teacher.js-

import { Person } from "./Person.js";

2) In Index.js-

import { Teacher } from "./Teacher.js";

However, can't rename Index.js to Index.mjs as doing so is jeopardising the JavaScript file and treating it as a simple text file and the codes in it are not being treated as codes but simple text instead.

3) In Index.html-

<script type="module" src="Index.js"></script>

4) In command prompt-

live-server --port=1234 --entry-file=Index.html

Now everything is running fine.

@raddevus: I'm not using Node. I don't have a VS project or solution file which I can "run". There are three JavaScript files and an html file as mentioned above in a folder. I'm using Visual Studio Professional 2017 to open the folder and then opening Index.html by right clicking and selecting "Open with Google Chrome". I suppose, VS Professional 2017 doesn't have the option to download and use Live-Server like VS Code. In this scenario, how do I run a web server and load the page from the actual server via http? Please suggest.

priyamtheone 8-Jul-20 10:56am View

Hi,

Sorry for late reply.

Are you implying to avoid those JavaScript-based DateTimePicker controls randomly available on the internet and rely on ASP.Net controls? If so, then I too think likewise. After going through a few articles, it seems that these JavaScript-based controls are not consistent enough or full-proof across browsers. I think it's wiser to use ASP.Net textbox control with TextMode="Date" or TextMode="Time" accordingly.

By the way, you mentioned about Ajax Calendar Extender Control. Would you please share the link for its tutorial and download?

priyamtheone 21-Jun-20 13:26pm View

*** An update ***

I learnt that the eonasdan DateTimePicker is for Bootstrap version 3. It doesn't work with the later versions of Bootstrap. Therefore I shifted to Tempus Dominus DateTimePicker, which is the updated successor of eonasdan DateTimePicker, that works with Bootstrap 4 or later.

Nevertheless, while using Tempus Dominus, though the DateTimePicker is appearing now and its functions are working properly on the page, no icons of the DateTimePicker or the Calendar control are appearing. See the images of date panel and time panel. The points circled in red are where the icons are supposed to be.

As I couldn't find any NuGet installation package for Tempus Dominus, I downloaded moment.min.js, tempusdominus-bootstrap-4.min.js and tempusdominus-bootstrap-4.min.css separately from URLs mentioned in the CDNJS section of this page. I added them to the scripts and content folders of my project, added the references of moment.min.js, tempusdominus-bootstrap-4.min.js and tempusdominus-bootstrap-4.min.css to the master file. Then, in the Payment page I added the javascript function to initialise the DateTimePicker. Still, no icon of the DateTimePicker control can be seen.

The problem still persists even if I use the full versions of moment.js, tempusdominus-bootstrap-4.js and tempusdominus-bootstrap-4.css.

Where am I doing wrong this time?

priyamtheone 21-Jun-20 13:25pm View

I verified the scripts. All are loading properly. Regarding two versions of jQuery, that's a typo. Checked both versions of jQuery by applying them separately. Still, no good.

priyamtheone 20-Jun-20 10:10am View

Hi Raje_,

Where did you get the references for Bootstrap DatePicker CSS and Javascript files from?


<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/datepicker.css" type="text/css" />


<script src="Scripts/bootstrap-datepicker.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

From where do I integrate these two files into my project?

priyamtheone 17-Jun-20 9:07am View

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Let me be more precise by clearing your doubts. To invoke PIN validation even if txtPin is empty, the CustomValidator for txtPin is defined with ValidateEmptyText="true". Also, Client_ValidatePage works fine as per requirement. I've no problem with that.

My specific problem is, when I click btnPay, instead of executing the "client side" functions of the validators, the respective "server side" functions of the validators are being executed. That's the problem. I want them to execute on the "client side". However, surprisingly, if I delete OnClientClick="return Client_ValidatePage()" from btnPay, all client side functions of the validator controls are working fine. Seems like the client side functions of the validator controls are clashing with OnClientClick="return Client_ValidatePage()" of btnPay. How can I get rid of this?

All other functions are working fine. I don't have any problem with them.

Hope I could make it more clear this time.

@Sergey: I don't have any misconception, because it's my task and I know my task very well. Only I can visualize it properly. It's just that the current requirement is really odd and I never dealt with such a condition. That's why I wanted to get some enhanced view here.

priyamtheone 4-Aug-15 12:44pm View

Thanks @Ben! I hope it can't be done through the designer during the table creation as I wanted, and trigger is the safest option. Also opting for the trigger fits better for already existing tables. Otherwise I'll have to go for the whole process manually column by column which is really cumbersome.

I see ambiguity among other posters on your first code example. I hope you too, intended data, and not metadata but gotten misunderstood because of 'TableName' and 'ColumnName' which, more clearly should be read as 'YourTableName' and 'YourColumnName'. Tell me if I got it right.

From the comment of @cigwork and http://blogs.msdn.com/b/prashant_upadhyay/archive/2011/07/13/large-file-upload-issue-in-asp-net.aspx, it seems it cannot be done the way I want. We’ll have to go for a workaround. The one that I can think of is, set maxRequestLength to a big value e.g. 104857600 (100 GB) in web.config and validate uploading file size for 2 MB in the respective page separately.

Please share if anybody comes up with a better idea.

@_Subrata_: May be I wasn't clear but I wanted to save the multi-line text from the textbox to the database and later, obtain just the first line of it from the database.

priyamtheone 12-Aug-12 12:32pm View

Ok, so in short, setting the Text of a standard windows form as its Name is explicitly done by the VS IDE and is not part of the Form class. The VS IDE doesn't do the same for inherited forms. We have to set the Text by ourselves. That's what I wanted to know. Thanks!

priyamtheone 6-Aug-12 13:06pm View

Actually I meant to say that when you add a standard form to your application through 'Add New Item' dialog box, you need to write the name of the form in the 'Name' text box. When the form is created, the name itself is set as the Text of that form. But that doesn't happen when you add an inherited form in the same way. THIS IS WHAT MY REQUIREMENT IS!!! When I add an inherited form to my application through the 'Add New Item' dialog box, its Name should be set as its Text when it is created for the first time.
Please note, in the inherited form I'm just setting a pre-defined backcolor for it. I'm not even overriding its Text. No more complex code is in there.

@Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov- I don't want you to read my mind. Similarly, you don't expect me to be psychic too. Tell me clearly if you don't understand my post. I'll definitely try to make it more comprehensible. You don't have to break your back for that.

priyamtheone 4-Aug-12 10:54am View

@Christian Graus- more or less often, there's always a possibility. Say, the user initiated a process that'll take a little time to be completed. The ProgressBar moves on accordingly. By this time, the user may minimize the form to do other works; during which she/he may change the theme and restore the form at a later time. After all we won't decide what the user will do.

priyamtheone 4-Aug-12 10:46am View

@Dave Kreskowiak- Checked both ManagerRenderMode and Professional styles. I tried repainting the ProgressBar in the SystemColorsChanged event but of no avail.

priyamtheone 5-Mar-12 5:20am View

@SAKryukov- First of all, I posted a question to seek a solution of a problem that is 'mine'. So I'll decide if things are unreasonable. Secondly, I think you didn't notice 'Please note' before 'I don't want to know...'. Anything said with a 'Please' cannot be rude. Rather, I would say it was being honest 'coz I really didn't want to know about those issues as I am already done with them. If you found it unusual and wanted a broader explanation, you could simply ask for it. There was no need to pull out those 'rude' and 'attitude' things, 'coz 'that' is unreasonable. Still if you can't face it, you shouldn't have dealt with it in the first place. Nobody forced you to read and post here.
The world could be made a better place by correcting our own faults rather than finding them in others.

If you meant how I declared the datagridview then it would be the default declaration when you add a datagridview to a form through the design IDE. By the way, the application in question is a WinForms application.

priyamtheone 5-Apr-11 11:15am View

I'll give a try. The fact I came to know is the forms opening in the panel are not exactly behaving as forms, instead they behave as UserControls now. That's why the Activated and Deactivate events don't work. Refactoring them to UserControls may work. I'll try that too and get back soon.

Thanks d@nish. Yeah we all know this would be the most basic syntax. Aside from this I was looking whether there's any alternative or workaround for this. Regards.
