Directive Syntax @ Control

Directive Syntax @ Control

The @Control directive is used in an Asp.Net user controls. The @Control directive helps us to define control-specific attributes to be used by the ASP.NET control parser and compiler Hence it can be used only with .ascx (User Control) files.

The attributes of @Control directives are

a. Language: This Attribute is same as we read in the Page directive.

Value: Is a valid string which can represent any .NET-supported language, including VB || C# || Pearl || Jscript || any other .NET
Purpose: Tell the compiler about the language being used in the code-behind file.

b. AutoEventWireup: This Attribute is same as we read in the Page directive.
Value: Can be true || False. By Default value is true.
Purpose: For every page in a .net website there is an automatic way to bind the events to their corresponding methods in the same .ascx file and code behind.

c. CodeFile: This Attribute is same as we read in the Page directive.
Value: Any string which specifies the name of the code-behind file.
Purpose: Specifies the associated code-behind file of the page.


d. EnableViewState: This Attribute is same as we read in the Page directive.
Value: True || False The default is true.
Purpose: Tells whether view state is maintained across page requests. true to maintain view state is; otherwise, false.

e. Inherits: This Attribute is same as we read in the Page directive.
Value: any string
Purpose: Specifies a code-behind class name which the page will inherit. It can be any class which inherits the Page class.

f. Debug:
Value: Can be true || false
Purpose: This value indicates that the page should compile with debug symbols or without debug symbols.

g. Src:
Value: Any Valid String
Purpose: Tells the source file of the class i.e the file used as the code behind file of this user control.

The other attributes which we rarely use are ClassName, CompilerOptions, ComplieWith, Description, EnableTheming, Explicit, LinePragmas, Strict and WarningLevel.

Directive Syntax Page

Directive Syntax

Directives are instructions used to specify settings (related to how a page should render and processed) used by the page and user control compilers when they process ASP.NET Web Forms page (.aspx) and user control (.ascx) files. These are the essential part of every ASP.NET Page or Control.

Directives can be located anywhere in an .aspx or .ascx file, but the standard practice is to include them at the beginning of the file (The advantage of using them at the top or the beginning of the file is that we need not to search them through out the file to make any minor change). Each directive can contain one or more attributes (paired with values, same as any HTML tag) that are specific to that directive.

Special Note:

The @ Page directive can be used only in .aspx files, and the @ Control directive can be used only in .ascx files.

The ASP.NET framework supports 11 types of directives and they are as follows.

@ Page: Can be included only in .aspx files. It defines page-specific attributes used by the ASP.NET page parser and compiler. Every .aspx files should include this @Page directive to execute. Throwing some light on important attributes of page directive

a. AspCompat:

Value: true || false.  By Default even if we don’t specify the value for AspCompat, it is set to false.
Purpose: Setting it to true will allow to the page to be executed on a single-threaded scenario.
For Example: The main cause when we set it to true is when we intend to use a component which was developed in VB 6.0; we can set this value to True.
Caution: Setting this attribute to true can cause page’s performance to degrade.

b. Language:

Value: Is a valid string which can represent any .NET-supported language, including VB, C#,  Pearl, Jscript any other .NET
Purpose: Tell the compiler about the language being used in the code-behind file.

c. AutoEventWireup:

Value: Can be true || False. By Default value is true.
Purpose: For every page in a .net website there is an automatic way to bind the events to their corresponding methods in the same .aspx file and code behind.

d. CodeFile:

Value: Any string which specifies the name of the code-behind file.
Purpose: Specifies the associated code-behind file of the page.

e. Title:

Value: Any String
Purpose: To set the page title, if it is different from what is specified in the master page.
f. Culture:

Value: string containing the culture value or auto.
Purpose: To specifies the culture setting of the page. If set to auto; it enables the page to automatically detect the culture required for the page.

g. ValidateRequest:

Value: True ||False The default is true.
Purpose: Indicates whether request validation should occur or not. In case of true, request validation checks all input data against a hard-coded list of potentially dangerous values. In case they match, an HttpRequestValidationException Class is thrown.
This feature is enabled in the machine configuration file (Machine.config). You can disable it in your application configuration file (Web.config) or on the page by setting this attribute to false.


h. Theme:

Value: any string
Purpose: To specify the theme for the page. This feature is introduced in Asp.Net 2.0.


i. SmartNavigation:

Value: True ||False The default value is false
Purpose: Specifies that the page should use smart navigation feature or not. Smart Navigation Feature enables a page to save the position after a postback. i.e. the page will returns the postback to current position of the page.

j. MasterPageFile:

Value: any String
Purpose: Specifies the location of the MasterPage file to be used with the current Asp.Net (.aspx) page.
k. EnableViewState:

Value: True ||False The default is true.
Purpose: Tells whether view state is maintained across page requests. true to maintain view state is; otherwise, false.

l. ErrorPage:

Value: Any string in URL format
Purpose: Specifies a target URL for redirection in case of an unhandled page exception occurs.
m. Inherits:

Value: any string
Purpose: Specifies a code-behind class name which the page will inherit. It can be any class which inherits the Page class.



There are also other attributes which are of seldom use such as Buffer, CodePage, ClassName, EnableSessionState, Debug, Description, EnableTheming, EnableViewStateMac, TraceMode, WarningLevel, etc.

File Upload In silverlight using Web service (.asmx)

In My Article File Handling in Silverlight I have discussed that we can use file upload in tow ways one using the Isolated storage of the silerlight and the other is using the classic (.asmx) Web services or WCF. Here I am discussing about
the classic .asmx web services. To upload files in the silverlight applications.

Steps :

  1. Create a silverlight project in Visual Studio 2008 or beyond. As silverlight 3.0 is released so you can use that or go with Silverlight 2.0 hardly matters.
  2. Make these important changes in the properties of FileUploadASMX.Web project
    1. Right click on FileUploadASMX.Web.
    2. Select Properties
    3. Under Web tab Select Specific port and give the port number I am using port number 1366 Note: we are using specific port so that every time we need not to run the web service to use it and it wont change its address. Neither we ned it to host on IIS if you don't want to use specifc port then either host your web service on IIS or run the webservice every time and update the service refrence each time before running the application.
    4. Save The Properties Page and close it.
  3. Add a new Web service to the FileUploadASMX.Web project and name it as uploadService.asmx
  4. Include the name space "System.IO"
    using System.IO;
  5. Create a new web method//method for upload the files. This will be called from Silverlight code behind.
    [WebMethod]
    public string UploadFiles(string strFileName, byte[] byFile, string strFileNo)
    {
    try
    {
    if (byFile.Length > 0)
    {
    string strFilePath = "D:\\meet\\" + strFileName;
    System.IO.FileStream fs = new FileStream(strFilePath, FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write);
    fs.Write(byFile, 0, byFile.Length);
    fs.Close();
    return strFileNo;
    }
    else
    {
    return "";
    }
    }
    catch
    {
    return "";
    }
    }
  6. Save the Service Leaving other settings as it is. or you want then you can delete the Helloworld example web method.
  7. Coming back to the FileUploadASMX project.
  8. Create A class FilesClasspublic class FilesClass
    {
    public FilesClass()
    {
    //do nothing
    }
    string strStatus = "";
    string strNo = "";
    FileInfo strFileName = null;
    public string PropNumber
    {
    get
    {
    return strNo;
    }
    set
    {
    strNo = value;
    }
    }
    public FileInfo PropFileName
    {
    get
    {
    return strFileName;
    }
    set
    {
    strFileName = value;
    }
    }
    public string PropStatus
    {
    get
    {
    return strStatus;
    }
    set
    {
    strStatus = value;
    }
    }
    }
  9. Create Two Buttons in the Mainpage.xaml.
    1. To Chosse File
    2. To upload File At the specifed folder in the Web Service
    The Code Will look like
    <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White" Width="400" Height="50">
    <Button Content="Choose" Height="20" Width="150" Click="Button_Click" Margin="10,0,10,10" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" d:LayoutOverrides="Width, Height" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Background="#FF2770AF"></Button>
    <Button Content="Upload" Height="20" Width="150" Click="Button_Click_1" Margin="20,0,10,10" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" d:LayoutOverrides="Width, Height" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Background="#FF2770AF"></Button>
    </Grid>

  10. Add the service refernce to the silverlight project name it "uploadService"
  11. Navigating to the event for choose buttonprivate void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
    //create a oblect for file open dialog
    OpenFileDialog op = new OpenFileDialog();
    //show the file browser dialog to select file
    op.ShowDialog();
    //if any file is selected
    if (op.File != null && op.File.Name != "")
    {
    //check the file size. It shoud be less than 1MB
    if (op.File.Length < 1048576)
    {
    //create a new fill class object to maintain the file content
    FilesClass obj = new FilesClass();
    //assign file
    obj.PropFileName = op.File;
    //assing file number
    obj.PropNumber = iFileCount.ToString();
    //add the file object to files list collection
    fl.Add(obj);
    iFileCount++;
    }
    //IF size is greater then 1 MB show the message
    else
    {
    MessageBox.Show("Max file size is 1 MB");
    }
    }
    //display message to the user if no file is selected
    else
    {
    MessageBox.Show("Select File");
    }
    }
  12. Now Lets code for the upload event Navigate to the eventprivate void Button_Click_1(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
    if (fl.Count > 0)
    {
    //loop through the files and upload the files by passing it to web service.
    for (int count = 0; count < fl.Count; count++)
    {
    uploadService.uploadServiceSoapClient x = new uploadService.uploadServiceSoapClient();
    //here is the event hadndler, whihc will be invoked for every file upload
    x.UploadFilesCompleted += new EventHandler<uploadService.UploadFilesCompletedEventArgs>(UploadFileComplted);
    //read the file from file class
    FilesClass obj = (FilesClass)fl[count];
    System.IO.FileStream str = obj.PropFileName.OpenRead();
    byte[] by = new byte[str.Length];
    str.Read(by, 0, by.Length);
    str.Close();
    //call the upload file methods async event, which will upload the files asynchronously
    x.UploadFilesAsync(obj.PropFileName.Name, by, obj.PropNumber);
    }
    }
    }
    private void UploadFileComplted(object sender, uploadService.UploadFilesCompletedEventArgs e)
    {
    if (e.Result != "")
    {
    MessageBox.Show("File Uploaded");
    }
    }
The Code Is Attached you can Download the files and enjoy file handling

File Handling in Silverlight


File Handling in Silverlight

In real time programming I haven't seen any application which do not need to work with files in one or the other way and every programming Language and techniques gives a way to handle files. So do our Silverlight. Here we are going to discuss about the techniques or I must say the methods we can follow for handling files.

In My Previous Article we saw how we can increase our application's Isolated Area. How can we handle the files in the Isolated storage area. By File Handling I mean The Following :
  1. Creating Files
  2. Reading Files
  3. Getting List of Files
  4. Uploading The Existing Files to the Isolated Area.
  5. Deleing Files

Steps :

  1. Create a new Silverlight Application I am naming it as "FileUploadSLApp". And leave the other settings as it is.
  2. We can use MainPage.xaml or can create our own silverlight user control (.xaml). For this example I am going with the MainPage.xaml. The Usercontrol of the Mainpage.xaml will look like:
    <UserControl x:Class="FileUploadSLApp.MainPage"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
    mc:Ignorable="d" d:DesignWidth="640" d:DesignHeight="480"
    Width="400" Height="300">
    <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">
    <Canvas Canvas.Left="10" Canvas.Top="10">
    <Button Content="Upload" Height="20" Click="Button_Click_1" Margin="10,60,162,54" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" d:LayoutOverrides="Width, Height" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Background="#FF2770AF"></Button>
    <TextBox Text="Write File Name with Extention" Margin="10,10,0,0" x:Name="txtFileName"></TextBox>
    <Button Content="Read Eile" Height="20" Click="Button_Click" Margin="65,60,162,54" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" d:LayoutOverrides="Width, Height" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Background="#FF2770AF"></Button>
    <Button Content="Get List" Height="20" Click="Button_Click_2" Margin="130,60,162,54" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" d:LayoutOverrides="Width, Height" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Background="#FF2770AF"></Button>
    <Button x:Name="btnDelete" Height="20" Margin="190,60,251,8" Content="Delete File" Click="btnDelete_Click"/>
    <Button x:Name="btnWrite" Height="20" Margin="270,60,36,8" Content="Write" Click="btnWrite_Click" />
    <TextBlock Height="20" Margin="10,100,126,79" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Text="Select File to uload" TextWrapping="Wrap" FontSize="16" x:Name="txtStatus"/>
    <TextBox Text="Enter The File Contents here......" Margin="10,140,0,0" x:Name="txtContent"></TextBox>
    </Canvas>
    </Grid>
    </
    UserControl>
  3. The Page will Look like Create File
  4. In this section we will create a text file in the isolated storage area with the name as given by the user in te textbox.First will check whether the file exist in the isolated storage area or not. If it does exist then we will create a new file with the name and if it exists then we will append the contents at the start of the file which user inputs in the textbox.Now let us create the event handler for the button and navigate to the event.private void btnWrite_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
    using (var MyAppStore = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
    {
    if (!(MyAppStore.FileExists(txtFileName.Text)))
    {
    MessageBox.Show("File does not exist , we are creating one for you ");
    IsolatedStorageFileStream file = MyAppStore.CreateFile(txtFileName.Text);
    file.Close();
    }
    using (StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(MyAppStore.OpenFile(txtFileName.Text, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Write)))
    {
    sw.WriteLine(txtContent.Text);
    }
    txtContent.Text = "";
    txtFileName.Text = "";
    MessageBox.Show("File Writen");
    }
    }
  5. Reading Files

  6. This section of the article shows that how can we read a text file from the Isolated storage area of the application. We have Already created a button and the event handler for this in the .xaml file so let us navigate to the event and code thereprivate void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
    //craeing a new link to the Application store for reading file in IsolatedStorage
    using (var MyAppStore = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
    {
    //checking the existance of the file
    if (!(MyAppStore.FileExists(txtFileName.Text)))
    {
    //if doesnot exist prompt the user
    MessageBox.Show("File does not exist ");
    //Clear the text from the textbox
    txtFileName.Text = string.Empty;
    }
    //if file does exist
    else
    {
    //create a stream reader to read the file
    using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(MyAppStore.OpenFile(txtFileName.Text, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.ReadWrite)))
    {
    //read file till end and post the contenst in hte textblock
    txtStatus.Text = sr.ReadToEnd();
    }
    }
    }
    }
  7. Getting List of Files from the Isolated Storage

  8. In this section we will get the list file in the isolated storage area and Display it in the TextBlock. for Directory Handling please read next article Now navigating to the event handlerprivate void Button_Click_2(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
    //clearing the textblockstatus to ensure that it is not having any text
    txtStatus.Text = string.Empty;
    //getting the handler for the isolated store
    using (var MyAppStore = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
    {
    //holding the array (list) of file names into a string array
    string[] str = MyAppStore.GetFileNames();
    //creating a foreach loop to go through each elemen of the array
    foreach (string s in str)
    {
    //printing the filename in the textblock with a new line.
    txtStatus.Text = txtStatus.Text + Environment.NewLine + s;
    }
    }
    }
  9. Uploading File

  10. In this section we will upload any file in the isolated storage area. and then access it from there for future use.private void Button_Click_1(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
    //creating the refrence for the dialog
    OpenFileDialog dlg = new OpenFileDialog();
    //creating the filter for the dialog
    dlg.Filter = "All files (*.*)|*.*";
    //Displaying the Dialog box remeber this should be user itnitated.
    if (dlg.ShowDialog() == true)
    {
    txtStatus.Text = "Uploading Files ";
    // Save all selected files into application's isolated storage
    IsolatedStorageFile iso = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication();
    //holding the file name into a string variable for later use
    string strname = dlg.File.Name;
    //creating a filestream and reading the contents of the selected file
    using (Stream fileStream = dlg.File.OpenRead())
    {
    //craeing a new IsolatedStorageFileStream for certaing new file in IsolatedStorage
    using (IsolatedStorageFileStream isoStream =
    new IsolatedStorageFileStream(strname, FileMode.Create, iso))
    {
    // Read and write the data block by block until finish
    while (true)
    {
    //get the bytes to write in the file.
    byte[] buffer = new byte[fileStream.Length];
    // byte[] buffer = new byte[100001];
    int count = fileStream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
    if (count > 0)
    {
    isoStream.Write(buffer, 0, count);
    }
    else
    {
    break;
    }
    }
    }
    txtStatus.Text = "Files Uploaded";
    }
    }
    }
  11. Delete File

  12. In this section we will delete any file from the isolated storage area with the name as given by the user in te textbox. Moving towards the event Handlerprivate void btnDelete_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
    //getting the handler for the store
    using (var MyAppStore = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
    {
    //Checking if file doesnot exist
    if (!(MyAppStore.FileExists(txtFileName.Text)))
    {
    //prompt the user that file does not exist
    MessageBox.Show("File does not exist ");
    }
    //if file does exist
    else
    {
    //delete it from the store
    MyAppStore.DeleteFile(txtFileName.Text);
    //prompt the user that the file is deleted
    MessageBox.Show("Deleted");
    }
    //clear the textbox containg the file name
    txtFileName.Text = string.Empty;
    }
    }

Creating A setup For a Windows Application

Creating A setup For a Windows Application

Some one has asked me today that how can I create a setup for a windows application in VB.Net so in order to answer the question I have prepared an article which I am sharing with you all hoping it will be of any help to others to running into the same problem.

The one thing I would like to clear is that creating setup for a windows application is not based on any language.

We need to follow the following Steps, in order to create a setup project for any windows application regardless of the language.

1. Open visual studio.
2. Select New Project from the File Menu.
3. Under The Other Project Types.
4. Select Setup Project.
5. Name it I am using Setup1 for the Example.














6. Once You Click Ok You will see the Screen Like This














7. Select Application Folder in Left Tab under File System on Target Machine.
8. Right Click on it.














9. Under Add option you will find the Folder, File, Assembly options. Choose the appropriate option I am Directly Creating an exe File you may also Create a folder and in that folder Cerate the exe file.
10. Now Browse for the EXE. For which you want to create setup


11. The Dependent DLL’s and the Exe will be copied


12. If you want to create Shortcut keys on the user Desktop and in the Program files Then Right Click On the Exe File


13. Choose Create shortcut. Rename It.


14. Now Drag and Drop This Shortcut To the Appropriate folder


15. Now Some Properties We Need to Change In order that they look like this is ours company Project.
16. Select The Project from the Solution Explorer and Press Select the Project from the Solution Explorer and Press to open the Properties.


17. Change The Author Name From The Default Company Name to the name of your choice.
18. And Manufactures Name


19. Choose Release Option Instead of Debug option


20. And Then Build Solution


21. Now Your Product is ready to distribute with the setups.You Can See That by Opening the Containing Folder


22. There In Setup  setup Relase you will find two files To distribute.

Solution to: URI Formats Not Supported

I am Sending a Mail with attachemts for this I have Made A WCF Which works fine when I give the Network path of the file. but I need to host It And when I try to give a URL path It Says. URI format not supported please Help My Code in WCF

public List funSendMail(Mailcls m)
{
List result = new List();
try
{
/* Create a new blank MailMessage with the from and to adreesses*/

* include them
*/
if (m.Cc != null && m.Cc != string.Empty)
{
mailMessage.CC.Add(m.Cc);
}
/*Checking the condition that the Bcc is empty or not if not then
* include them
*/
if (m.Bcc != null && m.Bcc != string.Empty)
{
mailMessage.Bcc.Add(m.Bcc);
}
//Ading Subject to the Mail
mailMessage.Subject = m.Subject;
//Adding the Mail Body
mailMessage.Body = m.Body;
/* Set the properties of the MailMessage to the
values on the form as per the mail is HTML formatted */
mailMessage.IsBodyHtml = true;

/* Bigining of Attachment1 process &
Check the all file for a attachment */
if ((m.AttachfilesPath != null) && (m.AttachfilesPath.Count > 0))

smtpClient.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential(m.UserName, m.Password);
//this will be the true in case of gamil and it varies from the service provider
smtpClient.EnableSsl = m.SSL;
smtpClient.Send(mailMessage);
try

Fine I got The Answer
Points:
1. URI is not a physical path so it can't be used for File Handling as we need the Physical path for that.
2. There is nothing in WCf like server.mappath()
3. we have to do some workaround to achive so and that work around is
add the following Namespaces :
using System.ServiceModel.Activation;
using System.Web;

now the class implementing the intervfce or the WCF class Use This Line of Code

[AspNetCompatibilityRequirements(RequirementsMode = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Allowed)]

Eg:

// NOTE: If you change the class name "SendMailWCF" here, you must also update the reference to "SendMailWCF" in App.config.
[AspNetCompatibilityRequirements(RequirementsMode = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Allowed)]
public class SendMailWCF : ISendMailWCF
{
and now you can access the file like

string RD = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("Repo") + @"\" + filename;
And below is an excerpt from the web.config.

Isolated Storage in the Silverlight Application

Isolated Storage

Isolated Storage in the Silverlight Application

Definition:
Isolated storage is a mechanism which, provide data storage isolation and safety by defining standardized ways of associating code with saved data. Standardization provides some more benefits as well.
Uses of tools from designing, reconfiguration storage, make security
policies apart from this remove unused data all are the tasks of
Administrators

Using isolated storage there no need to write unique paths in the file system, so, hard-coded things are immaterial. With this all is controlled by computer's security policy. The uses of this is appreciable in web applications where user/client must have to use some cautions while running these applications.
Security policy doe not allow to access the file system using I/O mechanism, by default all is granted to access isolated storage

For more information on Isolated Storage Visit here

How to increase the space of the issolatedStorage of the application


Steps To Test The Current Space for the application

  1. Run any Silverlight Application Right click on it it will show you the silverlight button. Click on it

  2. Now the Silverlight properties Dialog will appear
    Now select the Application Storage Tab It will show you the Application storgae for all the silverlight application on the system

    Meetu
    Steps

  3. Create an application with the name "IsolatedStorageApp". You can name it as per your choice I will be using this in my example Application.
    Meetu

    Add New silverlight control and name it as "IncreaseIsolatedStorage.xaml"
  4. Right-click on the IsolatedStorageApp in the solution explorer

    1. Choose Add
    2. New Item

    3. Silverlight User Control. In the Name box rename it to IncreaseIsolatedStorage


  5. Meetu

  6. For our purpose we are only taking three textblocks to
    display Space Used, Space Available, Current Quota and the textbox for the New Space request. Add The Following lines in the .xaml file

    <Canvas Canvas.Left="10" Canvas.Top="10">
    <TextBlock Canvas.Left="10" x:Name="SpacedUsed" >Current Spaced Used=</TextBlock>
    <TextBlock Canvas.Left="10" x:Name="SpaceAvaiable" Canvas.Top="20">Current
    Space Available=
    </TextBlock>
    <TextBlock Canvas.Left="10" x:Name="CurrentQuota" Canvas.Top="40">Current
    Quota=
    </TextBlock>
    <TextBlock Canvas.Left="10" x:Name="NewSpace" Canvas.Top="70">New
    space (in bytes) to request=
    </TextBlock>
    <TextBox Canvas.Left="255" Canvas.Top="70" Width="100" x:Name="SpaceRequest"></TextBox>
    <TextBlock Canvas.Left="365" Canvas.Top="70" Width="60">(1048576
    = 1 MB)
    </TextBlock>
    <Button Canvas.Left="10" Content="Increase Storage" Canvas.Top="100" Width="100" Height="50" Click="Button_Click"></Button>
    <TextBlock Canvas.Left="10"
    Canvas.Top
    ="160" x:Name="Result"></TextBlock>
    </Canvas>
  7. Now our page will look like:

    Meetu


  8. To set The Values of the Three TextBlocks lets create a function GetStorageData and call it in the constructor.
    private void GetStorageData()
    {
    //creating an object for the IsolatedStorageFile
    using (IsolatedStorageFile MyAppStore = solatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
    {
    //calculating the space used
    SpacedUsed.Text = "Current Spaced Used = " + (MyAppStore.Quota
    - MyAppStore.AvailableFreeSpace).ToString() + " bytes";
    //getting the AvailableFreeSpace
    SpaceAvaiable.Text = "Current Space Available="
    + MyAppStore.AvailableFreeSpace.ToString() + " bytes";
    //getting the Current Quota
    CurrentQuota.Text = "Current Quota=" + MyAppStore.Quota.ToString() + " bytes";
    }
    }
    Here we will be missing a namespace "System.IO.IsolatedStorage" So include it.

  9. Now the function to increase the quota

    ///
    <summary>
    /// Increases the Isolated Storage Space of the current Application
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="spaceRequest">
    Total Space Requested to increase
    </param>
    private void IncreaseStorage(long spaceRequest)
    {
    //creating an object for the IsolatedStorageFile for current Application
    using (IsolatedStorageFile MyAppStore = solatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
    {
    //Calculating the new space
    long newSpace = MyAppStore.Quota + spaceRequest;
    try
    {
    //displays a message box for the increase request.
    //if accepted by the user then displays the result as quota increased
    //else unsuccessful.
    if (true == MyAppStore.IncreaseQuotaTo(newSpace))
    {
    Result.Text = "Quota successfully increased.";
    }

else
{
Result.Text = "Quota increase was unsuccessfull.";
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Result.Text = "An error occured: " + e.Message;
}
//recalculate the static
GetStorageData();
}
}

Handling the button event
private
void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
try
{
//taking the space request in the long variable
long spaceRequest = Convert.ToInt64(SpaceRequest.Text);
//calling the function to increase the space
IncreaseStorage(spaceRequest);
}
catch
{
Result.Text = "Bad Data Entered by the user";
}
}

  1. Run the Application and click on the Button after filling the textbox with the desired space to increase.
    A Dialog box will appear for the confirmation click yes to see the results.

Sending Mails with attachments using Gmail

Sending Mails with attachments using Gmail

Many times I came across the question that how can we send mails with some files as attachments and in continuation do we reaky need to buy some domain of our's to send mail or there is a domain using which we can send mails using gmail or yahoo or hotmail accounts. so the answer. So I decided to write this article which will help in solving the above quest.

Let answer First the above questions and then we will code how to send mails with attachments.
Question : Do we need our own domain to send mails?
Answer : No we do not necessarily need our own domain to send mails. Gmail
provides us free pop service and yahoo, hotmail and other mail engines charge for the service. Rather if we have our own domain that would be a benefit.
Question : Can we send files as an attachment?
Answer : Yes we can and even any extension of file can be send as attachment if server allows that as Gmail do not allow to send exe files rest you can send pdf,html,doc etc. any.
Question : Some Times our code is perfectly fine still we are not able to send mails ether we get error failed to send or could not connect to the server what may be the reasons?

Answer : The Reasons is very simple that we have some firewalls or the anti
virus installed on the system which prevents us to do so Specially Mac Fee prevents us sending the mails by blocking the port. The
Remedies is just off the antivirus for some time and then try sending the mail.

Requirements:

Development Machine Requirements
  1. Dotnet installed on the system VS2005 or above The Downloadable version comes for VS2008
  2. Files to attach with the mails
  3. Anti-Virus off while debugging the application
Client Side Requirements
  1. Dotnet Framework 2.0 or above in which the application is made
  2. Browser to run the Application
  3. Anti-Virus off while executing the application

Now lets start developing the application

  1. Create a web application with the name "SendMailWithAttachment". You can even use any name of your choice I am using this for my example.
  2. Add The Following code in the body tag of the Default.aspx page to genrate an interface for the aplication.
    <%@
    Page Language="C#"
    AutoEventWireup="true"
    CodeBehind="Default.aspx.cs"
    Inherits="SendMailWithAttachment._Default"
