Locking code to prevent changes

Hello,
I probably already know the answer but I give it a go.
You can disable code (it turns in color green) in Visual Studio Express but is there also a way to "lock" parts of code to prevent changes?
Greetz,
W.

Thanks for the tip about TFS and GIT. As a starter I'm exploring the possibliities now about these features.
The context is that I'm an independent starting designer. A client first agreed that he doesn't want to make small changes on his own when the website is finished. Now he wants to be able to change a picture or add an event when he likes to do it. The website
could be designed in joomla to make it easier for the client to make changes but I'm looking for a way in Visual Studio to block code so he only will be able to change the items that he wants to. Like a picture for example. So for the moment it's a small scale
solution that I'm looking for.
Hi woodyallen,
As the replies above, you could control your code with TFS and GIT. As far as know, I think there is no such a small scale solution in Visual Studio which you want.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to post in this forum.
Best Regards,
Edward

Metadata - Can you lock Metadata to prevent changes

Using Aperture can I lock IPTC fields so that once I input the data and export images...other people can not change my metadata? (Other then in the original file stored within Aperture) For example I would like to lock my contact info and copyright fields when I export the images and email them around etc....
When I open my jpg or any file in Bridge I can change all IPTC Metadata. Can I prevent these changes?
Software:
OS 10.4.11
Aperture 2.1
Adobe CS3
Thanks

No, there's no way to do that. Once you've exported a JPEG or TIFF file, any image editor can change IPTC information -- there is no DRM equivalent in the file format to "watermark" this info in there.

Nokia 5700 Lock Code Problems

Hi All
This is what I do.
Menu - Settings - Phone Settings - General - Security - Phone and Sim - Lock Code
When I select Lock Code it asks me to enter the Lock Code so I enter ANY number over 5 digits, it asks for a new lock code so I enter 67890 (5 digits), Asks to verify so I re-enter it correctly and I get a code error.
If I repeat this process 5 times it says I've entered the Lock code incorrectly and can't do it again for 5 minutes.
It also asks for this code when I attempt to reset the phone to which I enter 12345 and it errors, plus it asks for the lock code when I try to set up a timed phone lock.
If I enter any 4 digit code it just asks for Lock Code again.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks

I too attempted to take it to a Nokia Service Centre, who reflashed it but to no avail.
I then took it to an independant mobile repair centre and he was able to resolve the problem.
He advised that the lock code had been changed and they were able to read it (giving me the old code which I didn't recognise) and then resetting it to 0000.
I would have thought the NSC reflash would have resolved this.

Nokia 6120 asks for a lock code (i dont have)

when i tried to put another sim card in my nokia 6120 classic ....it asks me for a lock code
and to change the settings of this i need the lock code....but i still can use the phone by the normal sim card

The reason you will need proof, is because its asking you for a security code, and this might happen if the phone is stolen for example.
So a receipt is the only good proof.
If you dont have any proof of any kind, they may still do it for you, but its purely down to their discretion.
You can find the nearest NCP to you at the Store Locator

I changed my lock code on my iPod and I swore I typed it in correctly. I messed it up somehow both times and now I can't get in my iPod. Any ideas?

I changed my lock code on my iPod and I swore I typed it in corrcetly. I must have messed it up somewhere because now it's locked and I can't unlock it.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:

To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

N97 Mini - Phone Data Lost when Lock Code is chang...

Hi,
I have changed the 'Lock Code' of my N97 mini under Settings>Phone>Phone Management> Security Settings> Phone and SIM Card> Lock Code. And to my surprise, after I changed the Lock Code, I found that all my contacts, messages and notes are lost. But Photos/Videos/Recorded files are available. I have tried all the ways but could not see the contacts/messages/notes/calendar entries. Unfortunately I donot have a back up of the data. Is there a way to restore the contacts/messages/notes on the phone?

That won't work... reason being is you need the following requirements for the iPhone 4.
Mac system requirements

Changing Screen Lock Code

Having bought a used 5th Gen iPod from a store I discover that it already has a screen lock code set. Neither myself nor the store know what the existing code is for me to enter and thereby change the code.
Is there a way around this? Does a full restore also restore the code to factory settings so I can start anew?

Thank you, I did a restore anyway to solve other problems, but as it is still reloading the iTunes library I have yet to discover what happened to that code.

HT1689 how do you change your lock code if yo do not remember it

I have forgotten the lock code to my ipod touch 8G. How do I change/reset it ?

You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it. If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.

Contribute 4 writing locked code... WHY?

Hi there learned chaps,
I've designed a site that will be content managed through
Contribute 4. On
some of the pages I've got some small Flash applets which I'm
feeding in
from asp variables. These flash applets are not editable
regions, but when
my client goes in and adds anything in an editable region it
seems to be
rewriting the flash script, and worse still it's buggering it
up, even
though it should be locked code.
Here is was the code is like before it's touch with
Contribute:

I've just written a detailed list of editing tips for our internal use that, in addtion to using "Paste Text Only", describe how to avoid or re-key Microsoft Office curly quotes and apostrophes, use only Contribute's Insert | Special Characters, etc.
In addition, I created a new role in which I made the following changes:
Under Editing, under“General editing restrictions”, checked the “Prevent users from inserting images (except shared assets); under “Paragraph spacing, changed so “Enter key moves insertion point down:” “Two lines, as in web page editors (uses standard <p> tags”; under “Other editing options”, unchecked “Allow multiple consecutive spaces”
Under Styles and Fonts, under “Styles and Fonts”, unchecked “Include CSS styles in the Style menu; unchecked “Allow users to apply fonts and sizes”; and unchecked “Allow users to apply font color and background color”.
Under New Pages, unchecked “Create a blank page”
Our initial experimentation indicates this eliminates most of the extraneous and junk HTML code that Contribute otherwise introduces. Time will tell. However, it requires contributors to be pretty rigorous.
