  • C#: Building a SOFTWARE SOLUTION from scratch to finish

    Hello good people of MSDN. I have a VERY SIMPLE REQUEST... (Here goes)
    I'm trying to build an Application (from scratch, custom specs) that allows the user to manage, organize and keep track of books that are available in a library. This system is to be made use of in environments such as personal library, public library, any
    situation that requires/involves the constant movement of BOOKS.
    Now, I have presented a solution to the client which works OKAY but there has been a SUDDEN CHANGE of heart, now the client wants the solution to be implemented quite differently. The solution that I BUILT is basically an ASP.NET C# Application that runs LOCALLY
    so it opens up in the browser (IIS installed and all that) for the user to make use of the Application. Now when I want to have the entire Application to FUNCTION on another system I simply copy the Database, the Application folder (that has all the files
    in it) place it in the IIS Directory... ... (So as not to waste your PRECIOUS TIME). To access the Application we simply open up the BROWSER enter localhost/the Application's URL...
    The client, first of all does NOT want the BROWSER in the mix of things (ANYMORE !!!); secondly, does not want to have to go through all of this process of COPYING FILES INTO LOCATIONS, IIS etc etc in order to get the solution to WORK/OPERATE on another/several
    other computers. The client wants to be able to have an EXECUTABLE INSTALLATION file that when clicked installs a SOFTWARE APPLICATION that opens up in its own WINDOW ENVIRONMENT without the help/assistance of the BROWSER !
    This is my PREDICAMENT there's NO TIME... I need to AT LEAST present a working prototype in less than 24hrs!
    So my questions are:
    1.) Is there anyway for me to convert my ASP.NET C# Web Application into an installable client software without losing any of the components that make it work?
    2.) If I have to build the ENTIRE Application into a WinForms PROJECT (I'm using VS 2010) can I STILL MAKE USE of the DATABASE I used for the ASP.NET C# Application?
    3.) I don't want to have to DUMP my SQL SERVER DATABASE (as it is) to start creating a DB using something else like MS Access. Do I have a choice?
    I have included with this post a Notepad doc that details the sketch of what I am HOPING to ACHIEVE. I would Appreciate it if anyone can (KINDLY) take it up and create according to the SPECIFICATIONS included in the doc. I have tried to be very DETAILED and
    DESCRIPTIVE in the doc to make it easy for  the DEVELOPER to FOLLOW THROUGH. Can it be done?
    (If ANYONE can take it up and provide the solution it would be a good thing because it would ALWAYS be available to other DEVELOPERS who can read through the CODE and become better C# PROGRAMMERS and better at using Visual Studio. As this is a VERY REAL
    LIFE SCENARIO coders can LEARN from the SITUATION).
    At the end of the whole CODING PROCESS I intend to BUILD the Source to become a SINGLE EXECUTABLE FILE that will INSTALL the Application on the clients system. If anyone can PROFFER (and MAYBE RENDER) a SOLUTION that's ACCURATE, SPEEDY, RELIABLE to me, I would
    be grateful!
    The Software is to be used in a school. Students are only going to REQUEST for books, RETURN the books that they collected. They are NOT BUYING books!
    Working/Functional Prototype
    (The PROTOTYPE I hope to present REALLY SOON should be CAPABLE of the FOLLOWING)
    1. Navigate/Move through the different Forms/GUI Screens when the appropriate buttons are clicked
    2. Interact with the DB (to some extent) and carry out (for now)TRANSACTIONS like adding books, viewing list of books, delete book, Register Student (other DB operations can be included much later)
    3. When the Application is LAUNCHED a Splash Screen is displayed introducing the Application (while the Application is loading), then when it's done Loading, the Application opens to present the Start Screen
    4. An EXECUTABLE INSTALLATION FILE that can be used to conveniently INSTALL the Application on multiple systems... Just in-case it is to be installed on a computer system that's not Windows OS, I'd like for it to carter to dependencies appropriately.
    PLEASE ANYONE that chooses to ASSIST (based on the SPECIFICATIONS) should KINDLY include the DETAILS of how the result was ACHIEVED so at least I can read through and understand the Application and conveniently make suitable/any necessary modifications (should
    the CLIENT require that I do so). eg Step by step instructions on how to get the whole SOURCE CODE into INSTALLATION FILE, Setting up the Splash Screen, how the DB is made to connect to the front end GUI (eg ODBC, OLE DB that type of stuff)... etc etc
    I'm trying to keep the prototype VERY SIMPLE so I can ACHIEVE something TANGIBLE in this short space of time then LATER any SOPHISTICATION can be included.
    PS: I have done MY VERY BEST to plan out the Application Logic. So it should be easy to just READ over the Notepad docs I'm including here... As a pointer (should YOU decide to ASSIST) it would be FASTER to START with the WinForms, then MOVE to CREATING
    the DB, afterwards LINK THEM...
    Thank YOU ALL.

    BELOW IS WINFORMS PLAN: FRONT END
    There are just gonna be 5 GUI Components (FOR NOW). The ENTIRE APPLICATION WINDOWS should be in the range 700px by 700px (width by height).
    Forms/GUI Instances
    1. Start/Welcome Screen
    2. List of books
    3. Administration
    4. Relase Notes
    5. Splash screen
    Start/Welcome Screen
    When the Software Application is launched and the Software is done loading this is the FIRST screen that the user sees. This Screen presents the users with options to carry out certain actions. Also it presents some brief/summary information to the user in
    a presentable manner.
    Options include: Administration, View list of books, Relase Notes
    Brief/Summary of information include: Total no of books in store, Total no of new books added
    List of books Screen
    When the user clicks on this action link from any where in the Software Application this page comes up. It displays a complete list of the books that are available in the store and also relevant info about the books. It reads DIRECTLY from the Books table inside
    the Database and presents the info in a tabular format. It also provides the user with certain options to carry out some actions.
    Options include: Request book (button beside every book item)
    Administration Screen
    The Administration Screen is segmented into several Areas that allow the operator to carry out individual/independent tasks. On this Screen the operator of the system has options to carry out many vital tasks as regards the Application. Rather than having to
    present many different Screens, all the control/Administrative tasks of this Aplication are included here on this ONE Screen.
    Options/Segments include: Add book(s), Delete book(s), View list of books, View books requests, View books returned, View all Students, Request for book(s), Register Student, Return books
    (All of these Options can be done/carried out on this one screen without having to bring many different screens to do the different tasks)
    >>Add book(s) Area
    This area FEEDS info DIRECTLY INTO the Books DB. To accept Data input into the Application this has following text boxes: Book Title, Author, Edition, ISBN, Category Name
    >>Delete book(s) Area
    Presents the options for deleting a book. It also relates DIRECTLY with the Books table in the DB. It presents the list of books as they are available in the Books DB and places a DELETE action button for EVERY book so that when this button is clicked it removes
    the book from the Books DB.
    >>View list of books
    This will simply bring up the list of books Screen since already we have a screen for this.
    >>View books requests
    This reads DIRECTLY from the UsersRequest table and just presents the info to the user in a tabular form.
    >>View books returned
    This reads DIRECTLY from the BooksReturned table and just presents the info to the user in a tabular form.
    >>View all Students
    Lists out all the students that are registered in the Application System. It READS DIRECTLY from the Students table. This area is used by the Admin/Operator of the Application to view a List of all the Students that have had transactions with the Application.
    >>Request for book(s) Area
    This area relates DIRECTLY with the UsersRequest table in the DB. It FEEDS in Data into the UsersRequest table. This area allows the admin to collect info of the student that's requesting for the book. It provides texboxes such as: First Name, Middle Name,
    Surname, RegNo, BookTitle
    >>Register Student Area
    This area relates DIRECTLY with the Students table in the DB. It FEEDS in Data into the Students table. This are allows the admin to input info of students that are new to the system.
    In other for the Admin to keep track of NEW students who are coming in to request for books this area is very important. It allows the Admin to register a new student so that the student can now request for books.
    There are text input fields on this Screen that allow the Admin to collect certain infomation about the student and feed it into the Students table of the DB. Textboxes inculde: First Name, Middle Name, Last Name, RegNo
    >>Return books Area
    This area relates DIRECTLY with the BooksReturned table. It FEEDS Data into the BooksReturned table. Textboxes include: Book Title, Author, ISBN, First Name of student, Last Name of student
    Release Notes Screen
    This Screen has three tabs that contain their own individual MESSAGES. The tabs are: Version, Known Issues
    Version
    Refers to the version of the Application. This tab provides info about the version of the Application

  • I want to set up Firefox sync from scratch using an account I own that shows as "already in use".

    I had a problem with my old Firefox Sync account (from work, using my work email address) and I would like to set up Sync again using my personal account. When I go to try to set up Sync, my only options appear to be "Create a New Account" or "I Have an Account". If I select create a new account, I get stuck because technically the account has already been used (I set up Sync a few years ago using my personal account but never utilized it), even though it is not in use on any of my machines. If I select I have an account, it wants me to sync the device with another, but I don't have another to sync to. I want to use my already existing account to set up Sync from scratch on my main machine. How can I get this done?

    on another note: firefox 29 which is going to be released at the end of the month will use a different account system (not compatible with current sync accounts), so it might not be worth the effort setting up sync with the old credentials now: [[How to update to the new Firefox Sync]]

  • How do I initialize Ultrabeat? - i want to build my own kit from a sam...

    Hello everyone,
    i've done this before!, but now i can't remember how.
    i want to first initialize UltraBeat and then hopefully, just drag and drop .wav samples into UB to create a new kit. I hope it's as easy to do this as it is in the EXS sampler.
    Also, is it possible to import an EXS instrument into UB?
    thanks in advance for the help!,
    Tom
    www.tomcarden.net

    When opening a new instance of UB it is set to "default" but already contains instruments mapped out on the keys. So if you want a totally empty Instrument you would have to edit that and save it in your template or User Library. If you right click/control+click on any Instrument in the UB mapping editor a menue opens - at the bottom choose "Init" and select the mode you want to be that Instrument in (e.g. Sample/Sine and so on).
    You can't drag and drop samples into UB you have to use the "Import" menue - so right click on an Instrument->Init->at the upper left you see the blue import button->menue opens->choose a sample from a folder. Or use the "load sample" function in the sample window of each Instruments, at the upper left of the sample window there is tiny downwards arrow which will unfold the "load sample" menue.

  • I am fed up! I want to just reinstall and start from scratch, well almost..

    Can i take it to my local apple repair shop and ask them to save certain things (Pics/movie clips/music)but then give me a totally clean computer back, do you think they can/will and how much do you think they will charge me? Im in Scotland by the way...

    Hello Julie.
    It is highly recommended that you maintain a backup of your important data yourself for a number of reasons (preferably saved/stored on an external firewire drive with at least the same capacity as your internal drive used for backup purposes only which can also provide for creating and maintaining a complete bootable clone backup of your hard drive which you can boot your Mac from if needed in an emergency) with an important reason being it isn't a matter of if but when your hard drive has a partial or complete failure since none last forever.
    There are some inexpensive and easy to use backup utilities available that provide for this with the biggest expense being the external drive but you can get a large capacity drive that includes a USB and Firewire hub for less than $200 which is like an insurance policy.
    This will also allow you to perform an Erase & Install yourself which isn't a very difficult or involved procedure.
    I also have the same question - what are you interested in or need to re-install?

  • Building big XML file from scratch - Urgent

    Oracle 8.1.7.3 on windows NT platform
    What is the best way to generate a quiet big XML file from multiple tables ?
    I have information stored in many relational tables from which I need to generate a XML flat file either stored in a CLOB field or in a text file in a system directory. This XML file will be then used
    as an input to generate a report either in HTML using XSLT, or in a PDF file using apache-fop or in a MS Excel file using SoftArtisan ExcelWriter.
    My XML file has many levels in it structure, I mean that it is composed of one root element with 2 children, each children has a 3 children. One on these 3 children has 2 children and so on. Actually there are more or less 10 nested levels.
    To generate this XML file, I tried to use XSU for PL/SQL with the nested cursor() feature plus XSLT to transform the raw XML file to my requirements.
    But obviously there are some limitations using this method. Particularly, if the inner cursor returns an empty set I get exhausted resultset java error... A TAR confirmed that limitation.
    So I had to give up this method to use basic nested PL/SQL cursors. Each fetched row is then inserted into a table (varchar2) with a sequence number so that with a cursor like select xml_chunk from my_table order by sequence, I get the whole XML file that I save either in a flat file or in a CLOB (using append method).
    This method works fine, but it takes time and it's not flexible at all as I have to construct each XML tag. I guest this way of proceeding is not the more efficient...
    Using DOM method won't be better as I still need PL/SQL cursor to select each level of my XML structure and in addition I might for sure encounter a problem of memory.
    So what solutions would you suggest to generate this XML file. It must be quiet fast. The XML file can be up to 2Mo big. My system is actually a kind of on-the-fly reports generation. I mean that the XML file needs to be created with up-to-date data many times during the working hours !
    Quick answers or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. It's very urgent !!
    Thanks

    I looks like the best way is to using the SAX processing for your application? Do you know the DTD or XML schema of your output XML document?
    Would you send me the sample code for the method "to use XSU for PL/SQL with the nested cursor() feature plus XSLT to transform the raw XML file" to reproduce the problem?

  • I want to start over. . .from scratch

    I just got another notebook and want to connect wirelessly.
    In working with my old laptop and desktop, I'm afraid I really messed things up connectionwise. So I disconnected my router, modem and (desktop) computer, hard reset the modem, connected the cable directly to the computer (yes, I screwed up my LAN connection), got my internet working again and thought I had created a new connection. Then I Then I reconnected the router (hard reset it in the process)and created a new network with a new name and password. . .I thought.
    Then when I got to the new computer to make it connect, the old network was the only one that showed up. Of course I can't connect on it even though the power shows full strength. In trying to manually override it, I was told that I was connected (through the old connection, I guess so I could access shared files) but it won't allow me to connect to the internet for safety reasons.
    How do I get rid of those old settings and start fresh? Anyone got any ideas? My brain is swimming after spending two days on this so hopefully this message makes sense.

  • Scratch 22: Creating XML Publisher report from scratch in eBS

    Problem:
    How to build a XML Publisher (XMLP) report in eBS from scratch. Thus NOT adapting or converting an existing report.
    Context:
    I have an eBS R12 Vision instance up and running where I want to learn building XMLP reports.
    This is what all tutorials I can find tell me to do:
    Most reports apparently consist of a layout template e.g. TEST.rtf and a data template e.g. TEST.xml. Now in order to generate a new report layout I am supposed to take existing output in XML format and (using ‘Load Data’ function in Template Builder plugin in Word) specify in my layout template where and how I want the actual data to pop up. So far so good.
    But now I want to build the data template from scratch and use it combined with a layout template. So I build the data template but can’t use that for building the layout template. For that I need output, for which I need a layout template.....
    Sounds like Catch 22 to me. How do I break this?
    1. Can I generate an XML-output file from the XML Data Template alone?
    2. Can I build my (RTF) layout template directly based upon the XML Data Template?
    3. Or have I completely lost the plot?
    Oh yes, dunno the first thing about Java and do not have My Oracle Support..

    1. Can I generate an XML-output file from the XML Data Template alone?
    create data definition with your data template-> create concurrent -> output as xml -> run -> view output and your xml
    I thought the XDODTEXE engine would pick up the (Layout) Template through concurrent program definition CPD short name which in turn points to the Data Definition (and thus Data Template). So does your answer mean I can call straight from CPD to Data Definition? I tried registering my Data Template in the Template Tab but it will not take XML as a type.2. Can I build my (RTF) layout template directly based upon the XML Data Template?
    if you want to use xml publisher desktop then you need xml (with data, not definition)
    So that's not an option I understand. Weird cuz I'd expect this to be technically easier.btw you can create your layout (rtf) without xml (data) and without data template (xml with select statement)
    create filed and past tag definition
    Yes but in that case I'd have an empty report. How would that help me?bouble click on filed:
    "Text Form Field Options" -> "Add Help Text ..." -> "Status Bar" (tab) -> "Type your own:"
    if you use bi publisher desktop plugin
    bouble click on filed:
    "BI Publisher Properties" -> "Advanced" -> "Code"
    or switch to Word Properties
    "BI Publisher Properties" -> "Word Properties" and use above path
    3. Or have I completely lost the plot?
    may be ;)

  • Build the Bar chart from Cross Tab which have 3 measures with cell refr.cal

    Hello Friends. I want to Build the Bar chart from Cross Tab which have 3 measures with Actual , Plan and Forecast

    Plan                     N       M       O     P
    Forecast
    SONIYA

    Hi Soniya,
    It will be better if you can get these keyfigures calculated from the BEx with the help of structures in the BEx.
    At the report level it will be complex to create these variables and also not sure whether going to work:
    But you can try something like this:
    A= If (L01 Moths="JAN") then Sum (Actual)/Sum (Bud) Else 0 similarly for other months.
    Then you need to create one more variable (measure) which should be plotted on the chart as:
    Final Act = If([L01 Month]="JAN") Then A ElseIf([L01 Month]="FEB") Then B ElseIf([L01 Month]="MAR") Then C
    Final Plan= If([L01 Month]="JAN") Then N ElseIf([L01 Month]="FEB") Then M ElseIf([L01 Month]="MAR") Then O
    similarly you have to create variables for Forecast, then finally you can plot final 3 variables in the graph.
    Hope it helps you.
    Regards,
    Rohit

  • ShopBlackBerry online shop - very disapointed

    Hi. I made my order for the Passport (qwertz version) on the launch day in the german BlackBerry online shop. The Passport was listed as "in stock" so I was happy to get it soon. Two days after the order I have got an email, that the Passport is not available - first disapointment. I need it very much, so I contacted the hotline when it will be available, nobody knows - second disapointment. The answers from the helpdesk come with a long response time (more days), thats really not good - third disapointment. The online shop from BlackBerry doesnt have the Passport, Amazon has it - fourth disapointmen. Dear BlackBerry ist, it your business strategy to make your potential customers angry??

  • How do i create a single sign on environment from scratch?

    setting up a single mac mini 10.6.6 server in a small law firm and want to create a sso environment from scratch. i have currently got everything working fine as an open directory master, but every reference to sso that i can find, talks about joining an existing sso environment, or joining ad, creating a triangle, but never a stand alone od master to create the sso. am i missing something, or is it not possible or practical to do in such a small office with just a few users?
    thanks for any help understanding this.

    i appreciate your input Rikakiah, although i am glad i don't have to pronounce your alias out loud
    anyway, that's starting to sound like something i might want to try, because so much of what i want to do is not really working the way i'm doing it. it had crossed my mind, but wasn't sure i was going to avoid problems by using network home folders instead of mobile accounts. at this point, i have only one of the four workstations bound to the server, which was purchased as a mac mini snow leopard server with the dual internal drives, and was set up as a mirrored raid with the 2 internal 500 gig drives.
    i am seeing what seems to me like some odd behavior with network accounts working with the log in screen (all the users show up in the log in screen properly as network accounts, but only one account, the one that matches exactly the local account user name and password and allows log in) and auto mounting group shares are not seeming to work at all. what seems odd, is that management of the local account seems to be working great, and has merged management with the local account. the user still has all their existing documents and settings, but i can see that the things like the control panels i locked them out of are grayed out. so to be try to be clear here, i have 4 network accounts set up in wgm, and on the log in screen, i see 3 network accounts with the typical network user icon, and what looks like the original account with the original icon. i can only log in using that account, but when i get in there, it's managed ok. i expected to see the original local account and 4 network accounts, but evidently using the same user name on the server as the local account caused this. when i try to log in with one of the other network accounts, the login screen shakes it head no.
    for the record, from another post talking about network log in issues, on the local system, setting System Preferences>Accounts>Login Options>Allow network users to log in at login window>Options>Only these network users: can mess this up, but my settings there are fine, since i had never messed with that. it says "allow all network users" or something like that.
    here's what i am trying to get to: auto mounting group shares and single sign on for afp group folders and ichat, and as you said to allow the users to move around from workstation to workstation as needed. as you know, there's a myriad of settings to make this all happen. i don't see how anyone can help me fix the 2 things that aren't working, unless i give a long winded explanation of what my settings in workgroup manager and server admin are, so here goes…
    i have dns and open directory running fine, a static map of ip addresses so that i can do authenticated directory binding, which seems great so far. in wgm, i have under preferences / computer list the one computer i have bound - computername$ and under window checked always, heading - directory status, list of users, show local users, network users, computer administrators, and other. under options checked always, enable fast user switching, computer administrators may refresh or disable management, and start screen saver after 5 minutes. under access checked always, clicked the gear button once which caused network users - allow - * to appear in the access control list, local only users may log in, local only users use available workgroup settings, and combine available workgroup settings. scripts and items have never checked.
    then for workgroup folders to auto mount, i have set afp auto mounts for each of my 2 groups, partner admin and support staff in server admin / afp. under accounts / groups / support staff / group folder, the support staff auto mount is selected, and the user i am working with is obviously a member of that group under the members tab. finally, under preferences / groups / support staff / items, always and add group is checked and the support staff volume shows up in the list. authenticate selected share point with user's login name and password is grayed out and not checked, and merge with user's items is grayed out and checked. i'm not sure what i am missing to get auto mounting group folders here. btw, the user can for sure log into the group folder with the same user name password that she logs into the workstation with, if she does so manually under the go / connect to server menu.
    oh, and ichat seems to work as expected. she gets sso there! sweet!
    if i do end up trying to go for network home folders, (i would like to see auto mounting group folders working first, before i try) i found something that looks like a no-brainer to add to the mix…

  • How to set up iPod Touch 4G on Windows from scratch again?

    Peace people,
    (This is my first post)
    I have an iPod touch 4g, I am quite happy with it, however, recently, I don't know why, but it won't get backed up. I have windows 7 and the latest version of iTunes. The syncing goes fine, but in the end it gives the message, "iTunes could not backup the iPod *name of ipod* because an error occured". I'm worried sick. I tried deleting previous backups, reinstalling iTunes, restarting my computer, and several other things. If you can help with that, that's good, but now I have another plan, I want to set up my iPod from scratch, like, the first I plugged it in. Maybe that would work. Basically I want Windows and iTunes to forget my iPod, and the next time I plug it in, I want to to happen just like the first time, the process of recognizing the device/usb etc.
    Please help me.

    It doesn't work, I've tried updatiing iTunes, I've reset the lockdown folder, I've tried a new user, there is no need for updating my Usb drivers, I've tried disconnecting any other Usb device, I didn't do the Layered Service Providers thing because it states that it is done when 'iTunes may unexpectedly quit, may stop responding, or the backup process may never finish' which isn't my case. I even uninstalled my security software and tried backing up, but that didn't work either. The only thing I haven't done is using a different computer, but that's because this is the only laptop I have, and another pc is not accessible at the moment. Though I am thinking about restoring my laptop to its factory settings after backing up important data, but that'll take time, so please if you have any other solution please help me, I want to update my iPod

  • JAXB: Creating Java content tree from scratch - examples?

    I'm trying to create XML output by building the content tree from scratch (using a the DDI schema which is fairly complex). I don't have any existing XML instances. Sample application 3 in Sun's JAXB tutorial doesn't give enough info about how to relate the nodes to create the heirarchy. I can create the root node and set it's attributes OK, but then the practical info runs out.
    Can anyone point me at some good practical examples? (i.e. not those of the "How to play the quitar: Put your fingers on the frets and move your other hand around" genre).
    Thanks in advance.

    I don't have examples, but the main thing to remember is that you should use the ObjectFactory to create all of the objects in your tree. That's important.
    You must use the element object class for the root node, but you can use type object classes for all the data contained (you can use element object classes for all the nodes, if that's easier).
    Use the accessor methods to load the data into the objects you create.
    One tip that almost everyone runs into - JAXB only provides a getter for lists - use the getter to get the list, then use .add() methods to add the objects to that list.
