Creating a Flexible Sorting Procedure Using IComparators and the QuickSort Algorithm

This articles topic came from the suggestion of a true DotNetJunkie. He originally sent an email to us asking for an example illustrating how to make a HyperLinkColumn in a DataGrid spawn events that would pop up a new window with details of the row that the user clicked on. Before we could anwser his email he had already emailed us back explaining that he had found a way to do it and suggested a tutorial of his discovery. So, here it is!

There are many cases where a sorting functionality is needed for an application. For simple applications, this sorting is done on arrays containing simple value objects such as integers or strings. However, most applications have custom classes and data structures specifically designed and implemented for that application. As such, it is difficult to create a sorting procedure that can be reused in both the simple and the more complex application. The solution that is the use of a standard sorting algorithm along with a comparator class, and John Schenken takes a look at this in his article. The sorting algorithm is written just like normal, except that instead of doing direct comparisons, the comparator object is used to return the result of a comparison.

Creating a Fully Editable DataGrid

Creating a Multi-User TCP Chat Application

In this example I have written a simple WebForm to manage a list of contacts which I have stored in XML. The requirements are simply the ability to add new contacts and to be able to modify or delete existing contacts. The user should be able to modify or delete multiple contacts at one time. I have also allowed the user to sort their grid by the column of their choosing.

Creating a Page Template by inheriting from the System.Web.UI.Page class

The .NET support for socket-based programming within Visual Basic is dramatically improved over what we had in Visual Basic 6. So even though we approach the programming issue somewhat differently, it is worth it due to all the new capabilities at our disposal.

Creating a Smart Base Factory Pattern

A common design pattern that I've seen used is the creation of a COM singleton that resides in a service. A service is a long-running executable that does not support a user interface, and which might not run under the logged-on user account. The service can run without any user being logged on to the computer. This makes services ideal for use on a server or whenever you need functionality that does not interfere with other users who are working on the same computer.

Creating a SQL Server Database Programmatically

Factory design patterns are a common approach used to help decouple object creation and instantiation from the client. In this tutorial, we will implement a slight twist on a standard factory pattern, devising a project dynamically capable of instantiating and providing information on new or removed concrete objects.

C# Corner

SQL provides statements to create new databases and database objects. You can execute these statements from your program to create databases programmatically. In this article, I’ll show you how to create a new SQL Server database and its objects such as table, stored procedures, views and add and view data. I’ll also show you how to change database table schema programmatically. You’ll see how SQL statement ALTER TABLE is useful when you need to change a database table schema programmatically.

Creating a Stored Procedure for Custom Paging with the ASP.NET DataGrid Control

Creating a Weblog using JScript .NET and ASP.NET

The DataGrid control is the most flexible and robust data bound control offered by ASP.NET. The DataGrid control renders as an HTML table in the user’s Web browser that can contain any other combination of controls, can be dynamically manipulated using scripts and server-side code, accommodates in-row editing and updating of displayed data, sorting of columns, and built-in paging. The built-in paging supplied by the DataGrid control may either be semi-automatically managed by the control or be manually mana

A Web Log is a Web page that represents a personal journal - a web log is informally referred to as a "blog". Blogs have frequent updates and individual updates are usually short. Some web blogs, like Slashdot, have a number of people working on them and provide a degree of interactivity by allowing readers to post comments about blog entries. Blogs have become so popular that services, like Blogger.com, make it easy to create and update your own web log. Developers like to do things their own way and have the ability to create their own blog - this article discusses how to create your own blog using JScript .NET and using ASP.NET.

Creating an ASPWire News Business Object Part 1

Creating an ASPWire News Object Part 2

This article is part 1 of 2. In this article I will be illustrating how to use members of the System.Net namespace to create a business object that "Gets" all news headlines that ASPWire has available, parses through the return, constructs a DataSet object that holds a DataTable of all news items, and finally returns a DataView that you can bind to. We also make use of Page Caching to limit our request for the data to 3 times per day. We cannot give all the code necessary for you to run this example on you

Creating and Consuming .NET Web Services in Five Easy Steps

Upon further thought creating a web service based on the ASPWire example in Part 1 of this article would not be that beneficial to sites like ours unless we were ASPWire. I do show the code in this article to create the web service, but it would be easier and more cost efficient to create the business object from part 1 and use that. Besides creating the web service in this article I am going to be demonstrating a better method of caching and reusing the DataSet returned by the business object from part 1.

Creating Classes - The Differences Between VB6 and VB .NET OO

While I was developing an e-commerce site, I was faced with the problem of populating a SQL database with large and thumbnail product images for each product. Uploading two different sizes of the same image for a product seemed time-consuming and not practical, so I automated this process and you'll see the code in this how-to article.

This topic demonstrates how you can create Windows Forms controls. It covers the basics of creating a control. In addition, this topic covers adding painting logic to a control, exposing properties and events, using control licensing, and adding design-time behavior to your control.

Creating Custom Collections

This article describes using Microsoft agent to create user interfaces that display characters, like Office 2000 Office Assistants. Microsoft Office 2000 uses animated characters, which it calls Office Assistants, to help users and provide assistance. With Microsoft Agent, you can add such characters to your own applications. You can even use the Office Assistants themselves – like The Genius or F1. Characters designed for use with Agent can do a variety of tasks – like speech synthesis and recognition, in addition to displaying a variety of animations.

Generally ASP.NET DataGrid is placed on the web form at design time. You add the <asp:DataGrid>control to the web form and then add bound columns to it. However, some timesit becomes necessary to create DataGrid via code and then add it to the web form. This articles will showyou how to do just that.
