Re: asp.net threads, see if thread with same name is running to wait a couple of seconds

I've been rewriting code and taking things that are not time sensitive, and putting them in a thread.

I have an issue in which search bots come like yandex, in which it rips through about 4 pages in less than 1 second, and my threads can't keep up.

Is there a way to see if the thread with the same name is running so I can have the next thread wait a couple of seconds.

Dim updateXML As New Thread(New ThreadStart(AddressOf uX_Container.update_SearchBot_Record_XML_ThreadProc))
updateXML.Name = "update_SearchBotRecord"
updateXML.Priority = ThreadPriority.Lowest
updateXML.IsBackground = True

updateXML.Start()

I've had problems with Yandex (and Baidu) in the past, they both hit harder than google. Given that I had 0% interest in the Russian/Chinese market where I was, I blocked them. I tried using robots.txt, but they didn't play well.
You might find this[^] discussion helpful I went down the URLRewrite route, it worked pertty well, but needed IIS7 plus the module installed.

Of course, if you want to be listed from yandex, the above is really bad advice.

Thanks for the article, I need to know that stuff anyway. Google is actually pretty courteous crawling at a rate of about 2 minutes each.

I think my strategy is wrong here. Perhaps for crawlers and bots, I should make them wait for the whole process to complete on a single thread. But on human users, I can put data writes on background threads so there experience is faster.

Pagination worries

Dont you think Asp.net 4.0 should have pagination plugins? Because it stress me out a lot. But,in MVC i think is not that hard.

For MVC you can use nuget package PagedList[^].

I prefer to have such plugins downloadable by nuget rather than build into language/framework. As you won't always need that and can keep things more simple. Too many contros means you will never know about them so won't use them anyway Smile | :)

With all do respect, how are we suppose to know where to look.

You should add a watch to your message body and run the program in debug, then make a copy of the body text, and send it to yourself. Then inspect both message body content and compare the two.

Then inspect the message content of the other email with the extra text and make a comparison as well. If the extra html only appears after relaying through the other mail server, then that mail server is injecting the html.

I've never used this class myself, but if I read the documentation[^] correctly, you should set:

var htmlMeta = new HtmlMeta();
htmlMeta.Name = "og:type";
htmlMeta.Content = "website";
// add htmlMeta to page header

for your example.

Hi,

I want to ask if this a correct and proper og prefix to be included in the head?

ASP.NET

<head runat="server" prefix="og: http://ogp.me/ns#" website: http://ogp.me/ns/website#">

hi,,I developed website(asp.net vb)..on the login page the user have to enter not the whole passworad the page will ask him
to enter just 4 digits of his passworad and that number appear
randomly.my problem now I dont know how the compare will work between the passworad which he entered with the passworad which is saved on database.

You'll need to use string functions, such as MID, LEFT, SUBSTRING, etc either in SQL or in C# and compare the same characters.

There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

NadaSaif5-Dec-12 5:05

5-Dec-12 5:05

But each random number is equal the index of the passworad which the password will be store in one string so, it should be compare one by one !!!!
Also the random numbers it repeated it shuld be not and I found by swap to be not repeated but is reapate.??

how are you storing the password, as a hash?, encrypted?

NadaSaif6-Dec-12 1:56

6-Dec-12 1:56

Yes,it was encrypted by RSA

jkirkerx6-Dec-12 7:32

6-Dec-12 7:32

Sounds like you've been painted into a corner on this one.

You would probably have to decrypt the password, take the first 4 chars, and do a string.compare against the 2 values.

jkirkerx6-Dec-12 11:36

Just off the top of my head, I write in vb, not that quick in c sharp. But I put about 10 minutes into it just to test 1 char. I would have to come back to convert the program to test char positions 2-4-6-7. I'm a little fuzzy on integer array, in which I can loop the Integer array of p1 to test 2-4-6-7 in the same loop, and produce a exit code such as 0 for success or 1 for failure.

[edit]
If I used the integer array of p1 for looping, I could just match the int value to the char position much faster. But that's my weakness.

Dim p1() as Integer = 2467

Anyways this is just a starter thought

Protected Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

        Dim uPassword() As Char = "fortune"
        Dim p1 As Integer = 2
        Dim p1c As Char = "r"
        Dim pMatch As Integer = 1

        Dim input(uPassword.Length - 1) As Char
        For i As Integer = 0 To uPassword.Length - 1
            'Just building the password char array to validate the thought
            input(i) = uPassword(i)

            If (p1 = i) Then
                If (uPassword(i) = p1c) Then
                    pMatch = 0
                End If
            End If
        Next

        Response.Write("<span style=""color: black;"">" & input & "</span>" & _
            "<br /><span style=""color: black;"">" & pMatch.ToString & "</span>")

    End Sub

So what did you end up doing?, let's see this amazing function because I must admit it's on the advance level, since you have gone beyond the string and into chars.
