I have the following html control on asp.net page (2.0):
<input id="ButtonPing" style="width: 91px" type="button" value="Ping" onclick="CallServer2()"/>
and also have the following javascript defined:
<head runat="server">
<title>Get Map</title>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function CallServer2()
{
var arg = document.all['DropDownListTrailer'].value;
var context = new Object();
document.getElementById('DivStatus').innerText = "Please Wait ...";
CallServer(arg, context) // AJAX
}
function ReceiveServerData(arg, context)
{
document.getElementById('DivStatus').innerText = arg;
}
</script>
</head>
The above code will only work on Internet Explorer and does not work on Mozilla.
Under Mozilla, when I click the button, the click event is never finished.
Does anyone have the same problem ? I have been fighting this for the last week.

That is because you are using IE-specific code.
The document.all collection is not part of the standard, and only exists in IE.

Thank you for your help
I comment out all lines except one, but still have the same problem.
function CallServer2()
{
var arg = "xyz" //document.getElementById('DropDownListTrailer').value;
// var context = new Object();
document.getElementById('DivStatus').innerText = "Please Wait ...";
// CallServer(arg, context)
}

Have you opened the Javascript Console, so that you see any error messages that might come?

This could probably also be in the SQL forum but nevermind.
What i am trying to do is create a generic class for storing my query results. At the moment i have a Database class that i can call an queryDatabase(string queryString) method that i call with SELECT statements. This returns a dataset populated with the query results.
Then in each of my classes such as Player, Item etc (making a web game here) i would do something such as:
Database db = new Database();
DataSet playerResultSet = db.queryDatabase("SELECT name FROM Player WHERE id = " + id);
if (playerResultSet.Tables.Count > 0)
{
DataTable playerTable = playerResultSet.Tables[0];
if (playerTable.Rows.Count > 0)
name = (string)playerTable.Rows[0]["name"];
}
This would give me the name of the playerID that i searched for.
What i am looking to do is to remove the code that i pasted to a separate, generic, class so that my classes such as Player and Item don't have to use DataSets, DataTables etc. I'm wondering if this is possible really since it will have to be generic, which creates problems since i wont know which table has been searched or the rows/columns in it and also the number of results.
So ideally this generic class would have methods to get the number and names of tables/rows or whatever and the values in them.
Has anyone ever had this problem / created a similar class / knows what i'm talking about?
Thanks for the help.
Tony.

I doubt anyone here does. And they will reply with something about ado.net too!
So anyways you can create a player class and enclose it inside generic list
List<PlayerClass>
public class PlayerSort : ICompare
then when sort just pass in a new instance of that class
also populating classes;
lets say you have this
select PlayerName from Players
you create a class like this
public class Players
{
public string PlayerName{ get; set; ... }
}
then using reflection you can store the name you get from a reader
PropertyInfo prop = this.GetType().GetProperty(string name from the read for the column );
prop.SetValue();
this will load your entire object
you can do the same for Updating and Loading with reflection.
So while people are writing all types of code, you only need 4 lines of code to handle all database calls
And ADO.NET sucks by the way. Its bulky, huge, slow, and a waste of resources. <-- I'm sure that will start a good forumn Besides ADO.NET is just a do all IListSource.
And by the way, in c# 3.0 it does this anyways. With the new QLink and XLink. Unless the programmer is from a Java background they dont think this way

Well my Database class does not use ADO.NET it uses SqlConnection, SqlCommand and SqlDataAdapter which fills a DataSet.
I'm not sure i really understood your reply, sorry.
|
|

well all of the above is ado.net.
and its faster to use a data reader. it uses a fire hose cursor

Alright fairy muff. But is it possible to build a generic class like i suggested?
|
|
|
|
|
yeah just build a base class and have all inherit from that
public class GenericClass{}
public class PlayerClass : GenericClass{}
Remember tho classes should have a 1:1 relationship with the database

and by the way. What I was talking about is loading a database record into a class from a generic base class.
So you'd create
public class GenericClass
{
public virtual void Load();
public virtual void Update();
}
Inside update you would test to see if the class has an id. If it does then this is not a new class otherwise it is.
I usually make my stored procs do update and inserts inside the same proc for less code to keep up with.
if constructor looks like so
public GenericClass( int id ) ** assuming the class uses an int id(indentity field)
{
Load(id);
}
this way all classes pass in an id to create
from your program
Player p = new Player(1); <-- has an id of 1
so when you run this code. It processes the PlayerClass Contructor for custom stuff first. then calls the Generic contructor with the ID. The Generic class then load the data into the class
By the way the PlayerClass construction should look somthing like
public PlayerClass( int id ) : ( id ) {}
the second will call the base class's constructor with the id
Thats the basics of it. If thats the path your going, I can help you with the code inside Save and Load. But you need to understand what this accomplishes from a high level. And of course, if this is what your trying to do.

So by 1:1 you mean 1 player in the db equals one instance of player class in the code right?
So there would pretty much be a class for each table (or useful table that is not just foreign keys).
I was concerned by using stored procedures to insert and update since in C# i would have to sort out the paramaters for the variables, so if the db changed i would have to change the stored proc and have to change the code as well, wheras if i just used insert and update statements with ExecuteNonQuery of an SqlCommand object i would only have to change the code. At the moment in my Database class i am using an SqlDataAdapter to fill a DataSet and returning that dataset for SELECT statements. For other SQL statements i just execute the SQL.
As for the generic class, could this only handle like table, e.g. ones like you say that use an IDENTITY column or could it handle and table?

Not actually.
Typically you use a datareader that populates the class via reflection.
You can use Typed datasets. But thier huge, bulky, and have been proven to fail and force a re-write in the business world.
I hear they dont work well with workflows. I avoid them like the plague after seeing thier issues first hand a year ago.
But, its your code. And you still need to create an interface and .net comes with a class generator so You don't really save anytime using datasets.
The updating code is 10 lines or so.
Good luck with whatever you choose I would read about real world example with OMG www.omg.org they are a culmiation of 800+ enterprise size projects.

I'm not quite sure how i would go about populating a class via reflection with a datareader. Can you explain/give an example please?
I didn't know VS had class generators. What are these and how do i access them?
Thanks.

Send me an email to n_i_c_k_5_4_5_4 _at_ hot_mail ( minus the underscores of course )
I have a forum app ( hate php and we needed a forums webite for my world of warcraft guild ) that I did in c# thats easy to understand without too many tricks. It has forums and private mail enabled. If you send an email I can give you a password to it.
Send me an email and I'll send you the project and we can discuss what and how I did it. It doesn't use any ADO calls inside the pages.
-- theories --
But, as far as the DAL and BLL.
The class exists in the BLL.
The DAL will return a populated class.
But, this also depends on who you talk to also.
I come from a Java and C++ background and move towards SOA. So I don't believe in any ADO.NET calls anywhere but the DAL.
But, people that stem from VB or other scripting languages will use ADO.NET calls anywhere ( the UI, BLL, and DAL ) and think it's proper.
But, by definition it says that the business layer does not know about the source of the data. So if you do not know the source of data, then how could you use ADO? That is tied directly to the data.
One solution I have seen before is the create a class that extends the IDBConnection and what not. But, this is just a hack to disobey the rules of abstracting the data source which a DAL implies.
And also, since the DAL could be hitting xml, oracle, sql, excel, text files, and other sources I believe the DAL should query the data and based on the class requested populate what data it can. This way the BLL is never concerned with how it got there, it just knows its there. Which is the definition of an n-tiered application.
If you send me an email, I can write a small prototype demonstrating what I am trying to infer. And add a visio document that visually shows what I'm talking about. Tell me if you have visio in the email. If not the can paste the picture into a word document.
Hope this didnt confuse you.

Hi all,
I have an asp.net page that has two panels of which one is not visible. The panel that is not visible is an Ajax:DynamicPanel. I want to display this dynamicpanel on the click of an imageButton but without the postback. Is this possible? I'm also new to Ajax and I thought I can do this with Ajax. Need suggestions.
Thanks
VJ

make it an anchor.
set the href to #null
and put script inside the onClick event

You could just use an asp:image and it put it in some element with a javascript OnClick event.

i've transfered a sql server database from win2k to winXP. It is working fine with the SQL Query analyzer and the Enterprise Manager. But in the asp.net pages it is displayig the error when i fill the sqldataadapter:
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
It was working fine with the win2k. Please help!
Thanks in advance

Only a server operating system will let you use integrated windows security across a network. Is that your problem?
how vital enterprise application are for proactive organizations leveraging collective synergy to think outside the box and formulate their key objectives into a win-win game plan with a quality-driven approach that focuses on empowering key players to drive-up their core competencies and increase expectations with an all-around initiative to drive up the bottom-line. But of course, that's all a "high level" overview of things

i've installed sql server 2000 on winXP sp2 prof. The SQL server is working properly.

Are you using integrated windows security?
XP is not a server operating system and therefore you probably can't use integrated security unless you are on the server itself.

sorry i don't know what is integrated security. You mean firewall? I'm using mcafee firewall.
