Just paste it in and a popup will appear where you can pick code. Or, click the code tag in the toolbar of the editor.

You are right

Also we can tag

which automatically comes when you copy paste or write the code in code editor

Re: Regular Expression to get only the first 30 alphabets from a big string

Hi,

I am trying to use a string compare with a static string with a File name, the File name is very big like this: "BSC_gMax_BSC_gMax_PROD_20170721001923.xml_EXCEPTIONS_b77022d0-7176-469a-9e83-5182b59a0cba.xls" but I want all the 31 Alphabets irrespective of case from the file name to compare with the static string I have

For example I want to check the string which has 31 alphabets: BSCgMaxBSCgMaxPRODxmlEXCEPTIONS is satisfying with the File name, then return true. I can only use the regular expression though because its running dynamically.

I tried the following: "[a-zA-Z]{0,31}", "[a-z]+" and "[a-zA-Z]{0,31}$" none of them worked for me so far though, but any advice and suggestion going to be very very helpful. Please I can only use regular expression, I am also searching but if you are familiar it would be great help thanks in advance my friends.

Thanks,

Abdul Aleem

Hi
I'm not the world's greatest expert in regex, but

JavaScript

[a-zA-Z]{1,31}

will return all the matches you want - you can test it on regex.com[^].

After that, you need to concatenate them into a single string - this Stackoverflow[^] page may help you with that.

No need for a regular expression - you just need to extract the letters from the string.

With LINQ:

string input = "BSC_gMax_BSC_gMax_PROD_20170721001923.xml_EXCEPTIONS_b77022d0-7176-469a-9e83-5182b59a0cba.xls";
string output = new string(input.Where(char.IsLetter).Take(31).ToArray());

Without LINQ:

string input = "BSC_gMax_BSC_gMax_PROD_20170721001923.xml_EXCEPTIONS_b77022d0-7176-469a-9e83-5182b59a0cba.xls";

char[] buffer = new char[31];
int bufferIndex = 0;

foreach (char c in input)
{
    if (char.IsLetter(c))
    {
        buffer[bufferIndex] = c;
        bufferIndex++;
        
        if (bufferIndex == 31)
        {
            break;
        }
    }
}

string output = new string(buffer, 0, bufferIndex);

.net web form application using javascript

In a C# 2010 web form application, I have found some JavaScript statements that will not allow the application to execute when I am using the Internet Explorer browser since some of the objects are obsolete/deprecated. However when I run the application using Firefox, I find that the application runs. I have also noted that some of the Javascript objects in the web form application may be deprecated in the future and to use these items with caution.

Thus if I deploy a new version of the current web form application and tell all users to only use Firefox in the next few weeks, I will create a static executable that everyone can use. Then when some of the objects are not allowed in Firefox, the application will still run since I have not changed the executable, correct?

Would I need create a new version of the application with the Javascript changes that are required?

If this is not true, would you let me know why and potentially what I should do to solve the issue?

I don't quite follow what you are asking, but if you find you are using old JavaScript that some browsers no longer support I suggest you update your code to be current. In my opinion, there is no need to create a new version of the application, just update your javascript and deploy the updated javascript.

As far as I know when you deploy an application that includes the javascript. How do you deploy the javascript separately?

All you have to do is copy the files.

I am not very familiar with javascript. I only know enough to make minor changes. Thus how do you copy the javascript files? I know that the files end with .js and they are at various locations within the entire solution file. Wouldn't I have to copy all those files to the same directory structure on the server that hosts the website?

Yes, but aren't they already there? So, if you change one file in development you only need to copy that file to production.

Since the error says that the login has failed, you should ensure that the user ABC\ABCWL753274$ is a valid login and database user.

Remember that if you use integrated security, the connection is opened using the credentials from the background process.

ABCWL753274 is not my user name its just my machine name, is it trying anonymous login that's the information I am looking for. But the ABCWL753274 is just my machine name as far as I know.

My connection string is as below, is there any problem in my Connection string:

<add name="InventoryDashboardEntities" 
     connectionString="metadata=res://*/IBDashModel.csdl|res://*/IBDashModel.ssdl|res://*/IBDashModel.msl;provider=System.Data.SqlClient;provider connection string=&quot;data source=xxxx569s,xxxxx1;initial catalog=InventoryDashboard;integrated security=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=True;App=EntityFramework&quot;" 
     providerName="System.Data.EntityClient"/>

Is there any problem in the above Connection String?

But if I use the below Connection String, its giving me the error as below:
<add name="InventoryDashboardEntities"
="" connectionstring="Data Source=WSQL569S,50101;Initial Catalog=InventoryDashboard;Integrated Security=True" providername="System.Data.SqlClient">

The error it is showing is:

The context is being used in Code First mode with code that was generated from an EDMX file for either Database First or Model First development. This will not work correctly. To fix this problem do not remove the line of code that throws this exception. If you wish to use Database First or Model First, then make sure that the Entity Framework connection string is included in the app.config or web.config of the start-up project. If you are creating your own DbConnection, then make sure that it is an EntityConnection and not some other type of DbConnection, and that you pass it to one of the base DbContext constructors that take a DbConnection. To learn more about Code First, Database First, and Model First see the Entity Framework documentation here: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=394715

The connection isn't anonymous. Looking at your connection string

indian143 wrote:
...;integrated security=True;...

you're connecting using the credentials from the running process, IIS in this case.

As said, you should ensure that this is a valid login and user or switch to SQL Server authenticated login.

GridView New Record from Empty Cell

Member 1130123127-Oct-17 9:35

27-Oct-17 9:35

Hello all,

I've been trying to wrap my brain around how to do this and coming up with nothing. I'm a beginner developer and creating my first .net MVC site for a company project.

I have the following tables: Projects, CalendarDates, and Bookings.

The bookings table accepts the cross ref between Projects/CalendarDates and has a field for booking value.

I've successfully been able to create the grid view with the list of projects by row with datas across the columns. This works perfectly.

What I want to do is make the entire table editable and if there's an empty cell, create a new record in the bookings table based on the Project Row and Date Column it intersects.

npm install is failing with the below errors
