• .NET Development Login Function

  I'm looking at creating a login function for my application that decides what level of access you get to the application. The input will be the staff no and password, which are saved in the database under the same table. I also need to get the access level from the same table. How do i go about doing this Thanks for any help in advance I believe you need to check how to implement Role level security in .NET applications. That mechanism allows you to assign specific roles and restrict access to specific functionality of the application based on role ...Show All

• .NET Development System.Net.WebException: The operation has timed-out.

  I have a very simple web service built with Java and deploy on Websphere server. The WS just receive a string array and return an integer value. I have another .Net client which has to call this WS, the client is deployed on a windows 2003 based Citrix MPS server, and all users has to logon to this server in order to use the client. The MPS server and websphere server is on the same network, there is no network problem between them. What I have spent two months to solve is that some users can call the WS through the .Net client perfectly, but some of users always fail to do that with this exception: System.Net.WebException: The operation has timed-out. at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream() ...Show All

• Visual Basic Adding child nodes to a tree view.

  I am trying to add child nodes to a treeview. I have to do this at runtime. Here is the code that I want to run: For each strFile as string in my.computer.filesystem.getname(dbLocation) if ctype(strFile, String).EndsWith(".cvc") Then dbTree.nodes.add(strfile) End If Next There are three problems with this. If I use my.computer.filesystem.getname(dblocation) it doesn't return any results, so I use getFiles, but that gives the full name of the file, I need to have just the base file name, which is a database (ie, test.cvc, test2.cvc, etc). The second problem is that I can't set these nodes as child nodes of the appropriate node. The third problem is that I need to add child nodes to each and every one of the added tree nodes.

• SQL Server How to generate an expression that uses the value from a previous column in a matrix???

• Software Development for Windows Vista Background activities in a workflow from a webpage

  I'm trying to set up a fairly standard workflow, which can be reduced to: press a web page button, wait a day for an event, if the event hasn't occurred then send an email. So I'm using Workflow within ASP.NET and a DelayActivity to cause the 1 day wait. (Several workflows of this nature might be active at the same time, corresponding to several requests being processed.) As I understand it, the problem with doing this is: - you need a thread to pick up delayed activities - such a thread isn't created in the manual scheduler that you must use with ASP.NET - therefore, delay activities will wait until the next load of the page, and the specific workflow, before they're acted upon. What's the best way of getting my delayed workflows picked u ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Maximizing throughput with streaming

  Hi All, I'm trying to learn about WCF while solving a problem I have right now but need a little help on the performance side.  I have a remote filesystem with about 1000 directories, containing anywhere from 1 to 1500 files each.  File sizes range from 300KB to 3MB each.  I need to mirror the remote filesystem locally over a VPN connection. So, I've created a client server using WCF, net tcp binding and streaming.  It's all functional now but the throughput is very bad.  The pipe for the VPN connection is enormous, with over 300Mbps available, but the latency is pretty high. I do know that my files aren't large enough to require streamed transfer rather than buffered but I'm practicing for another problem ...Show All
