getting basic data types using reflection than nullable

Share |

While using class properties to use for data base connectivity, i.e. LINQ TO SQL, I was facing issue for nullable types. I was using Reflection to fetch property type names, but for NULLABLE properties it use to send me property type name as NULLABLE`1. I was suppose to use following switch case (Determine Nullable properties via reflection)

public static string getJSType(PropertyInfo propertyinfo)
        {

//GetCoreType function returns Property type.
switch (GetCoreType(propertyinfo.PropertyType).Name.ToUpper())
                {
                    case "INT16":
                        return "number";
                    case "UINT16":
                        return "number";
                    case "SHORT":
                        return "number";
                    case "USHORT":
                        return "number";
                    case "INT32":
                        return "number";
                    case "UINT32":
                        return "number";
                    case "INT":
                        return "number";
                    case "UINT":
                        return "number";
                    case "INT64":
                        return "longnumber";
                    case "UINT64":
                        return "longnumber";
                    case "LONG":
                        return "longnumber";
                    case "ULONG":
                        return "longnumber";
                    case "DECIMAL":
                        return "decimal";
                    case "DOUBLE":
                        return "float";
                    case "BIGINT":
                        return "longnumber";
                    case "STRING":
                        return "text";
                    case "DATETIME":
                        return "datepicker";
                    case "BOOLEAN":
                        return "flag";
                }
            //}
            return "text";
        }

To determine type of NULLABLE properties via reflection, I used following function GetCoreType

 private Type GetCoreType(Type type)
        {
            if (type.IsGenericType &&
                type.GetGenericTypeDefinition() == typeof(Nullable<>))
                return Nullable.GetUnderlyingType(type);
            else
                return type;
        }

Find Type of Nullable Properties via Reflection. Determine type of Nullable properties view Relection. While using reflection get core property type of nullable properties.

The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' requires a database schema compatible with schema version '1'. Solved...

Share |

While working with Asp.NET and Membership, using MS SQL 2008 R2 I came across following error. My web application was working perfect on my local machine but when I hosted it on remote server I got following error.

The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' requires a database schema compatible with schema version '1'. However, the current database schema is not compatible with this version. You may need to either install a compatible schema with aspnet_regsql.exe (available in the framework installation directory), or upgrade the provider to a newer version.

After R&D I had came across three possible solutions "WHICH I THINK ARE RIGHT, AS THEY WORKED FOR ME IN DIFFERENT SCENARIOS."

1. Check "aspnet_SchemaVersions" table in database and make sure CompatibleSchemaVersion is set to "1" for all the Features (e.g. common, membership, role manager etc) available in table. Also make sure IsCurrentVersion column values are set to 'True" for all Features.
2. In Web.Config, and aspnet_Applications table check if application Name is matching or not. Application name in web.config's Membership>Providers, Profile>Providers, RoleManager>Providers are matching with application name in database.
3. In Membership>Provider I had "AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type as type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" which I modified (after referring to some articles online) to type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"

Application worked for me when I checked all these things and made changes in my application.

Cannot connect to local SQL Server Express 2008 R2

Share |

Some times while using SQL server R2 on local machines we get a connection error something looking like

TITLE: Connect to Server

Cannot connect to (local).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2)

To deal with it, there are two things we need to check

1. Try this as your server: .\SQLEXPRESS
2. This error occurs if SQLEXPRESS instance is not started. To verify the service is started or not run services.msc and look for  "SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS)" service, status should be "Started", if it is not, try to start it manually.

ExecuteNonQuery requires the command to have a transaction when the connection assigned to the command is in a pending local transaction. The Transaction property of the command has not been initialized

While using transaction in Asp.net/C# I got above error.

To solve this error I simply added Transaction object in SqlCommand like below

SqlTransaction Transaction;
conn.Open();
Transaction = conn.BeginTransaction(); 
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sql, conn, Transaction);
