probably u guys do not understand my requirement. i am talking about report builder or designer. tools application provide custom report designer which help customer to build their report. so i was thinking that can we use the existing ssrs report designer instead of purchasing a new one like devexpress has one that kind.
as a developer i will design apps for our customer in such a way that customer can open report designer from my apps and drag provided fields on the report designer surface and design their report as they like with minimum technical knowledge.
if still my requirement is not clear then please let me know. so i can explain it in more detail. thanks

Did you do the research on the links from Ryan, they point to SSRS Report Builder, this is a component you can deploy doing EXACTLY what you are asking for. You, as the developer, have to prepare the data for the report builder tool, the end user can then build SSRS reports using that tool.
No one mentioned DevExpress, you said you are already using SSRS.

That's exactly what Report Builder does. Even the name of it suggests that.

What? We have it deployed with a bunch of our customers and they use it all the time. The 2008+ version is even better in some ways.

CodeProject has many resources for understanding, and using, the repository pattern. Start here: [^]. Then look at the other relevant articles listed in the column on the right side of the article.

I have started a new project and using the following MVC5, EF6 - Code First, ASP.NET Identity with a tier'd architecture. What I want to do is decouple the ASP.NET Identity so I can customise the ApplicationUser in my data (core) layer which is mapped to my business / service layers. Does this make sense and has anyone done anything similar?
My solution is layered as follows;
Solution
--Presentation Layer
----MVC5 App
--Business / Services Layers
----UserService
----Models (Business Objects)
--Infrastructure Layer
----Data (EF Models)
--------ApplicationUser
----DataAccess (Repos etc)
--------DbContext

I already did that, but it is very time-consuming and annoying.
I created a layer to map the ASP.NET Identity models to my custom models and overrided all methods of the UserStore<identityuser> to implement my custom data access logic.
Probably the easiest way is a second database context that is only responsible for the Identity system.

So in my DataAccess I would have my regular DbContext and IdentityDbContext and just use a database initializer for in app start / global?

No you have the IdentityDbContext in in your MVC application and in the DataAccess layer your regular DbContext.

Hmm how will the IdentityDbContext know about my ApplicationUser in my data (EF Models) solution? Hmmm may give it a rest for tonight mind is not working correctly

The IdentityDbContext has already all Identity related models defined. If you like to customize it, do it like I described it previously:
Create a layer that is derived from UserStore<identityuser>, override all methods and fill them with you custom logic, and map the identity models to your custom models. AND VERY IMPORTANT: If you don´t want that the UserStore uses a default DbContext you have to define an invalid connection string in the constructor of the UserStore!

Hello folks,
I want to store login credentials for a SMTP server which should be stored encrypted.
In your opinion:
Where should I store the credentials?
How they should be secured?
Why do you think should I use your suggestion?
greetings
Nico

Hi Nico,
You can store the credentials in SQL Database.
They can be secured by using Hash encryption (one way encryption).
|
|
|

That won't work. See Bernard's message below for why it won't.
Cheers,
Peter

I guess it is your application which tries to communicate with the SMTP server.
Hence the application must be able to retireve the clear text password when connecting to the server. Consequently, you cannot hash the password, but you must encrypt it. This also adds the question of how to store the key and the salt value.
Next question is: who configures your application? Is it the "user" who enters his personal SMTP credentials or is it an administrator of the user's company who does so (and applies the same configuration to all installations of the application in the company)? Depending on the answer, you may use a user-specific settings file, a program specific settings file, the *.exe.config file, store data in a database, etc...
Also note that the .exe.config file contains a connectionStrings section, which can be "automatically" encrypted and also used for this purpose.
