for little background story, work in computer lab , need have easy method disable network protocol bindings on adapters based on pci bus locations. so far have written c# command line utility find them, bus locations, netcfginstanceid, etc. 1 thing haven't figured out how remove bindings on adapters, go through , remove them in registry still show in adapter settings. eventually found out neat utilities in windows ddk, bindview sample program, want take netcfgapi included in bindview sample , use in c# program, problem c++ files. have tried using midl convert them .ddl or .tlb can use pinvoke on know little pinvoke , midl compiler comes errors such "midl : command line error midl1003 : error returned c preprocessor (4)". my question is, there easier way this? , if there not, best way go converting netcfgapi c++ files usable in c#? i write utility in c++ more comfortable using c#. you try compiling stuff c++/cli dll. in project settings under compiler,

i'm working on web app in asp.net 2.0 involves several gridview elements. when users click 1 of rows in grid, row needs show selection changing color. each row has attributes set identify record type , unique id: <tr data-elementtype='mytype' data-myid='12' onclick='selectionfunction();'></tr> i accomplish selection through javascript onclick handler on each row calls function that: removes selected class selected row adds selected class new selected row updates value of hidden field new selected unique id server-side code can know element perform action on when button clicked (view, delete, etc). one of these grids has on 700 records in it. in firefox 3.6, selection operation on grid horribly slow (about 2 seconds); in other browsers (even ie 7 , 8) it's not problem. put console.log statements @ start , end of selection function, , in firebug show fast @ end of delay, suggesting it's not selection function slowin

what best way 301 redirect delay of several seconds? want original page displayed 5-10 seconds , 301 redirect site. i've found lot of solutions in php on google 1 found delay didn't display original page before redirecting—only empty screen. you can't true 301 redirect delay. http stateless. "301 redirect", want if you're trying make google happy; client sends request, , status code on reply server 301, part of reply you'll use location header , tell new content is. if don't have that, you're not doing 301 redirect. with other answer, you're doing meta refresh on client side, google not like. this how 301, , user doesn't see old page @ all, , have no idea they've been redirected. $location="http://www.yoursite.com/newpage"; header ('http/1.1 301 moved permanently'); header ('location: '.$location);

i'm still relatively new .net , asp.net mvc, , have had few occasions nice store information retrieved db temporarily can used on subsequent server request client. have begun using .net session store information, keyed off of timestamp, , retrieve information using timestamp when hit server again. so basic use case: user clicks 'query' button gather information system. in js, generate timestamp of current time, , pass server request on server, gather information db on server, use unique timestamp client key session store response object. return response object client user clicks 'generate report' button (will format query results excel doc) pass same timestamp #2 down server again, , use gather query results #4. generate report w/o additional db hit. this scheme have begun use in case use session temporary storage. generating timestamp in js isn't secure, , whole things feels little... unstructured. there existing design pattern can use this,

heres scenario: concerned sqlcesyncclient applying deletes, inserts, updates. have cases row may de-referenced table, , deleted. example, imagine this: i have 2 tables; customer, , area, of customer.area references area.name foreign key constraint insert area values('australia') insert customer values('customer1','australia') -- sync happens. client gets 2 inserts. update customer set area = 'new zealand' area = 'australia' delete area name = 'australia' -- sync happens. client gets 1 update , , 1 delete the sqlceclientsyncprovider tries apply delete first , fails because of referential integrity constraints on client. my first question is: why on earth did boys @ microsoft code syncclient process deletes first when breaks referential integrity rules? shouldn't apply deletes last???? my next question is: have managed reverse order inspecting code , writing whole applychanges method myself... when deletes not applie

i have active directory federation services 2.0 setup , ready work, have scenario falls outside pretty i've read on enabling relying party application. 2 scenarios documented involve a) passive authentication web site or b) using thick client that's authenticated calling web services. my scenario follows: have web application calls wcf services via net.tcp data access. need use adfs 2.0 secure each wcf call secure token. i can't use use passive method of authenticating adfs web site (security restrictions outside control). so question is, possible manually request secure token adfs via web site, use same token call wfc service methods? have @ http://travisspencer.com/blog/2009/03/caching-tokens-to-avoid-calls.html . in blog post described how cache security tokens wcf service calls. i think should possible "inject" fetched token in described "cachesecuritytokenprovider".

in c++, can create usable code modules creating class, , giving out header , implementation files developers want use class. i want in c# have little experience c# language. need create class can reused c# programmer in visual studio 2010. know referencing dlls 1 way use other peoples' classes. need create dll achieve want accomplish? or there other, better ways? for example, let's create cow class can "moo". in c++, uses class include cow.h, instantiate cow object mycow, , call mycow.moo(). how can achieve simple task in c#? thanks time , patience. yes, create class library project , share resulted dll's. other developers need add reference dll , after they're free use public objects library.

in general decalre arraylist can declare below. arraylist obj = new arraylist(); this correct only. in our code not this.we below list obj = new arraylist(); why this? why upcasting ? and while upcasting restricting functionality. specific reason declare arraylist or linkedlist this? yes - because unless need specific functionality exposed via concrete type, it's idea refer more general type. way, if ever decide use different implementation, know you're not tied specific current implementation. can later change single statement: list<string> list = new arraylist<string>(); to (say) list<string> list = new linkedlist<string>(); and know still compile. of course behaviour can change in terms of performance, thread safety etc - case anyway. you're expressing don't need members specific arraylist<string> , can important when reading code later. all of particularly relevant when comes picking return type

i quite new database programming , trying create java program access hsqldb (version2.2.5) using hibernate.i have 3 classes in program mapped 3 tables given below. i wanted create one-to-one mapping between saleorder , bill. also, create schema db, tried sql create statements. 2 tables saleorder , bill have each other's id fk.to avoid dependency error between tables during create,i used alter table add constraint statements now,i want use drop table statements @ beginning of script.i used following alter table saleorder drop constraint fk_so_bill; alter table saleorder drop constraint fk_so_buyer; alter table bill drop constraint fk_bill_so; alter table bill drop constraint fk_bill_buyer; drop table buyer if exists; drop table saleorder if exists; drop table bill if exists; this however, causes problem when run first time(since altered tables don't exist.).i not find 'if exists' clause alter table in hsqldb ..so solution?should run create table scripts

possible duplicate: combinatoric 'n choose r' in java math? is there method in java can use class can calculate ncr without coding myself? which means if i, example, give 5 , 3 parameter of combination related method return me 10. i want know class method included , how use it. i believe djna right combinatorics not appearing in jdk 6. perhaps in future version of java platoform might see it. often common algorithms such can found in apache commons libraries. can in commons math: http://commons.apache.org/math/apidocs/index.html . but if need ncr on numbers, rather sets, can steal code koders: http://www.koders.com/java/fidb0df1a89f0472f6f4039af61944ba2d072af6032.aspx .

in wordpress documentation page function wp_enqueue_script , written: note : function not work if called wp_head action, tags output before wp_head runs. instead, call wp_enqueue_script init action function (to load in pages), template_redirect (to load in public pages only), or admin_print_scripts (for admin pages only). do not use wp_print_scripts (see here explanation) . do not use wp_print_scripts action want highlight, simple google search on "how include javscript in wordpress". find of examples using wp_print_scripts action call wp_enqueue_script . , seems ok it. so missing or misunderstanding here? edit the codex has been modified. says: this function not work if called wp_head or wp_print_scripts actions, files need enqueued before actions run. see usage section correct hooks use. yeah, been there lots of times. short answer guys print script requests wrong or folks suggest faster not use wp_enqueue_script load dynamically mode

i'm losing here.. extremely confused how loop works. from w3 schools: var person={fname:"john",lname:"doe",age:25}; (x in person) { document.write(person[x] + " "); } person object properties right? how properties being accessed brackets? thought arrays? why work, , shouldn't this?: var person=[]; person["fname"] = "john"; person["lname"] = "doe"; person["age"] = "25"; (x in person) { document.write(person[x] + " "); } there 2 ways in have access object's properties: obj.key obj['key'] the advantage of second method can provide key dynamically, e.g. obj[x] in example. obj.x literally mean x property (i.e. obj['x'] ), not want. arrays work brackets, brackets not limited arrays. arrays under hood objects, designed numeric keys. can still add properties non-numeric keys them, that's not designed for.

on this page i"ve been working on forever , have column headed "bid x ask": http://www.sellmycalls.com/so-bg-pos.png in each of cell backgrounds there supposed bar chart conveys ratio of numbers in cell each other. so in each cell have background-color: gray; , background-image:all-white;. can't position (plenty big enough) image on gray background. in fact, in current incarnation, image doesn't show @ all. how can set background-position of image? top <td> in column styled way: <td class="main_td bxa bxa_val" style="background-color: #ecf1ef; background-image:url('http://www.sellmycalls.com/pics/cell/bxa-white.png'); background-repeat:repeat-x repeat-y; background-origin: 0px 0px; background-attachment:fixed; background-position:53px 0px; -moz-background-position:53px 0px; -webkit-background-position:53px 0px; -khtml-background-position:53px 0px; -o-

example: if use arabic language text field direction rtl , if want write new text , switch english language direction inside text field (`text-align: left) ltr automatically you use global html5 attribute dir value of auto here, so: <input type="text" dir="auto" /> from specification: the auto keyword, maps auto state indicates contents of element explicitly embedded text, direction determined programmatically using contents of element (as described below). note : heuristic used state crude (it looks @ first character strong directionality, in manner analogous paragraph level determination in bidirectional algorithm). authors urged use value last resort when direction of text unknown , no better server-side heuristic can applied. http://www.w3.org/tr/html5/elements.html#the-dir-attribute as quote suggests, better find out on server side direction should used, can use if have no way of knowing it.

we're writing our own web app , need user have (fairly) accurate visualisation of printed documents on-screen . i'm using centimetre unit in css try , replicate a4 page. i need work out actual pixel height assigned following: max-height: 27cm; is possible in javascript? need pixel height because need compare offsetheight max-height. well, due screens of differing size, resolution, , ppi, wouldn't possible display real life sized view of page consistent across screens. not unless find size of pixels themselves, not believe possible via js.

i might getting myself confused here want service idempotent. is, receiving same request more once not change state of system. makes sense me when receiving messages in disconnected integration system. example, receiving messages on msmq , having form of service dealing messages being received. want service in consistent state if receives 10 duplicate messages. what struggling head around standard wcf soap service performs crud operations. idempotency question come affect if asynchronous call? syncrhonous call nature idempotent? looking @ crud operations, 1 not idempotent create. can have duplicate create calls wcf? thanks i guess depend on define (in domain) duplicate. once defined can run checks before creating record. e.g. have person firstname , lastname , etc... duplicate person identified firstname + lastname . what kind of duplicate messages expect service receive? same client 'clicking submit button twice'? or 2 different clients trying update record

i have stream writer opens using webclient.openwrite call. simplified case, assume reader reading multiple of datachunksize. using (stream writer = mywebclient.openwrite(myuristring) { using (filestream reader = new filestream(myfilename, filemode.open, fileaccess.read) { for(int = 0; < reader.length; += datachunksize) { byte[] data = new byte[datachunksize]; reader.read(data, 0, datachunksize); writer.write(data, 0, datachunksize); } reader.close(); reader.dispose(); } writer.close(); writer.dispose(); } my data size of 2 datachunksizes. however, not send data (no data received) until writer.close() call called, sends first datachunksize worth of data...the second datachunksize of data never sent. how can send after every write call? tried adding writer.flush() did not help. thanks. i think issue because last chunk perhaps not full length expect (datachunksize).

i've been doing prototype work on new silverlight application using caliburn micro our mvvm framework. team has been happy it. in order address issues throttling requests services, suggested reactiveui's reactivecollections , implementation of inotifypropertychanged. does have experience around using 2 together? since both mvvm frameworks, there's bit of overlap, wonder if might more trouble it's worth try , make them work together. some of things caliburn micro are: the convention based binding, etc...very nicely done in our opinion. bootstrapping. way handled, it's easy extend when need to, out of box stuff works many of our use cases. composition/screen management. rob's notion of conductors, screens, etc. flows nicely us. the reactiveui stuff has drawn (at least initially). the reactive collections , inotifypropertychanged stuff. particularly ability throttle reactions. reactive's asynchronous stuff seems bit cleaner deal rob's c

i have uitableview , checklist. want able save data when user leaves view. when view opened want there saved data. when saved data mean table view able add , delete cells want able save checkmarks. please provide me way or idea on how this? i know can save data with: nsuserdefaults * defaults = [nsuserdefaults standarduserdefaults]; and save data defaults, need know how on saving table view's cells add , or deleted! know how save checkmarks! thank you, kurt i suggest using either core data, or nscoding. nscoding allows encode object nsdata, , reload replica of object nsdata. for instance, saving , loading array of strings through nscoding this: nsarray * array = [nsarray arraywithobjects:@"this", @"is", @"a", @"test"]; nsdata * encoded = [nskeyedarchiver archiveddatawithrootobject:array]; // save encoded data file... // load encoded data file... nsarray * decodedarray = [nskeyedunarchiver unarchiveobjectwithdata:en

can in writing custom content provider multiple tables. can write single table multiple table did not find example. a near duplicate of existing answer. compare this question , answer , discussing use of left join inside contentprovider. note that, in all, expected use of contentproviders use single tables each path in content uri. it's still seen out of norm use join or index multiple tables in 1 call. not it's bad, there aren't many people thinking in terms.
