One of the goals of the Silverlight HyperVideo Project is to demonstrate best practices. So when is it okay to throw in a quick hack to get things working?Case in point: as I approached the release this week for the latest alpha, I noted that the player was not updating when the user clicked on a topic, though the links were appearing as if the player had been advanced.To make the issue clear, in this image you s...

jantu 1182 days, 21 hours, 32 minutes ago

I’ve started blogging simple tips when I get a question from a developer that’s a bit tricky.This is one of those. Simple to do, but not always simple to find the answer.In this case the developer wanted to use an AJAX Editor Control inside a ModalPopup control.This isn’t a problem but, the user needed to clicking the OK button to cause a post-back so that he could execute some server –side logic.The ”Ok” Button is an ASP.NET control but adding a Click Event Handler for the button didn’t solve ...

SQL SERVER – Stored Procedure Optimization Tips – Best Practices « Journey to SQL Authority with Pinal Dave

We will go over how to optimize Stored Procedure with making simple changes in the code. Please note there are many more other tips, which we will cover in future articles. Include SET NOCOUNT ON statement: With every SELECT and DML statement, the SQL server returns a message that indicates the number of affected rows by that statement. This information is mostly helpful in debugging the code, but it is useless after that. By setting SET NOCOUNT ON, we can disable the feature of returning this extra i... (more)

I needed this; so I have wrote it; and now share it. This is a low-featured, cyclic (log files reside in appname\1.txt to at mose 31.txt), thread-safe and non-blocking TraceListener with some extension methods for System.String to ease tracing which are in fact some wrapper around Trace.Write(...) and Trace.Write(...) functionality (So you can change your TraceListener later!).

ali62b 1199 days, 2 hours, 37 minutes ago

Quick Tips About ASP.NET MVC – Editor Templates In the last quick tip, I showed off how you can use the UIHint data annotation to specify a custom template for rendering of a particular field. An important part of that mechanism is the DisplayFor strongly-typed html helper that was introduced in ASP.NET MVC 2. As mentioned before, we can also use the EditorFor html helper to format the rendering of a field in an Edit view. In this example, we will use the model we created in the last tip: publicclassA...

.NET CF and Windows Mobile Performance Best Practices

nightman 1199 days, 5 hours, 31 minutes ago

The impact of performance is much more readily apparent in .NET Compact Framework applications. The mobile devices commonly have a CPU that is 10 times slower than your desktop CPU, and possibly up to 100 times less RAM than a desktop or server. In Agile or XP development, the mantra is often to ignore performance considerations until necessary – I don’t think you can apply that to .NET CF... (more)
