3,315 | 08/06/2008 12:17:31 | 503 | 08/06/2008 12:17:31 | 1 | 0 | C#: Can I have a method return IEnumerator<T> and use it in a foreach loop? | I need to set the height of every textbox on my form, some of which are nested within other controls. I thought I could do something like this:
private static IEnumerator<TextBox> FindTextBoxes(Control rootControl)
{
foreach (Control control in rootControl.Controls)
{
if (control.Controls.Count > 0)
{
// Recursively search for any TextBoxes within each child control
foreach (TextBox textBox in FindTextBoxes(control))
{
yield return textBox;
}
}
TextBox textBox2 = control as TextBox;
if (textBox2 != null)
{
yield return textBox2;
}
}
}
Using it like this:
foreach(TextBox textBox in FindTextBoxes(this))
{
textBox.Height = height;
}
But of course the compiler spits its dummy, because *foreach* expects an IEnumerable rather than an IEnumerator.
Is there a way to do this without having to create a separate class with a GetEnumerator() method?
Am I mad?

We have considered the following options
1. Splitting the page so that credit card collection (the requirement for SSL) is not on the same page as the Google Map.
2. Switching to another map provider, such as Virtual Earth. Rumor has it that they support SSL.
3. Playing tricks with IFRAMEs. Sounds kludgy.
4. Proxying the calls to Google. Sounds like a lot of overhead.
Are there other options, or does anyone have insight into the options that we have considered?

Precisely, I don't want users automating access to forms issuing direct GET/POST HTTP requests to the appropriate servlet.
So, I decided to block users based on the value of HTTP_REFERER. After all, if the user is navigating inside the site, it will have an appropriate HTTP_REFERER. Well, that was what I thought.
I implemented a rewrite rule in the .htaccess file that says:
RewriteEngine on
# Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://mywebaddress(.cl)?/.* [NC]
RewriteRule (servlet1|servlet2)/.+\?.+ - [F]
I expected to forbid access to users that didn't navigate the site but issue direct GET requests to the "servlet1" or "servlet2" servlets using querystrings. But my expectations ended abruptly because the regular expression "(servlet1|servlet2)/.+\?.+" didn't worked at all.
I get really disappointed when I changed that expr to "(servlet1|servlet2)/.+" and worked so well that my users were blocked no matter if they navigated the site or not.
So, my question is: How do I can accomplish this thing of not allowing "robots" with direct access to certain pages if I have no access/privileges/time to modify the application? | security | apache | mod-rewrite | http-referer | null | null | open | Block user access to internals of a site using HTTP_REFERER

what my options are.
Downsides to ClickOnce:
- Consists of multiple files - Seems easier to distribute one file than manageing a bunch of file and the downloader to download those files.
- You have to build it again for CD installations (for when the end user dosn't have internet)
- Program does not end up in Program Files - It ends up hidden away in some application catch folder, making it much harder to shortcut to.
Pros to ClickOnce:
- It works. Magically. And it's built
into VisualStudio 2008 express.
- Makes it easy to upgrade the
application.
Does Windows Installer do these things as well? I know it dosen't have any of the ClickOnce cons, but It would be nice to know if it also has the ClickOnce pros. | visual-studio | vb.net | installer | clickonce | null | null | open | What is the best way to deploy a VB.NET application?

The function of the application is simply a pass-through for data from a serial device to a file. It performs many, many transformations on the data before writing it to the file, so the GUI for the application is simply all the settings that dictate what those transformations should be.
What's the best way to go about designing/coding a tree-view preferences dialog? The way I've been going about it is building the main window with a docked tree control on the left. Then I have been creating container controls that correspond to each node of the tree. When a node is selected, the app brings that node's corresponding container control to the front, moves it to the right position, and maximizes it in the main window. This seems really, really clunky while designing it. It basically means I have tons of container controls beyond the edge of the main window during design time that I have to keep scrolling the main window over to in order to work with them. I don't know if this totally makes sense the way I'm writing this, but maybe this visual for what I'm talking about will make more sense:
![form design][1]
Basically I have to work with this huge form, with container controls all over the place, and then do a bunch of run-time reformatting to make it all work. This seems like a *lot* of extra work.

What do people do? | Currently I have two linux servers wunning MySQL, one sitting on a rack right next to me under a 10Mbit upload pipe (main server) and another some couple of miles away on a 3Mbit upload pipe (mirror).
I want to be able to replicate data on both servers continuously, but have run into several roadblocks. One of them being, under MySQL master/slave configurations, every now and then, some statements drop (!), meaning; some people logging on to the mirror URL don't see data that I know is on the main server and vice versa. Lets say this happens on a meaningful block of data once every month, so I can live with it and assume its a "lost packet" issue (i.e., god knows, but we'll compensate).
The other most important (and annoying) recurring issue is that, when for some reason we do a major upload or update (or reboot) on one end and have to sever the link, then LOAD DATA FROM MASTER doesn't work and I have to manually dump on one end and upload on the other, quite a task nowadays moving some .5TB worth of data.
Is there software for this? I know MySQL (the "corporation") offers this as a VERY expensive service (full DB replication). Just wondering what people out there do. The way its structured, we run an automatic failover where if one server is not up, then the main URL just resolves to the other server.
Thx.

SELECT A,B,C FROM table WHERE field LIKE 'query%'
UNION
SELECT A,B,C FROM table WHERE field LIKE '%query'
UNION
SELECT A,B,C FROM table WHERE field LIKE '%query%'
GROUP BY B ORDER BY B ASC LIMIT 5
That's three queries stuck together, kindasorta. However, the result set that comes back reflects results from query #3 BEFORE results from query #1 (undesired).
Is there any way to prioritize these so that results come as all for query #1, then all for query #2 then all for query #3? I don't want to do this in PHP just yet (not to mention having to control for results that showed up in the first query not to show in the second and so forth).

1. SQL Server Data Storage & Stored Procedures
2. Data Link Layer (Strongly Typed Table Adapters) connecting to Stored Procs
3. Presentation Layer ASPX Pages with Code behind and ObjectDataSource for connection straight to the DLL
Is a BLL always preferable, even if business logic is entirely validatable in the presentation's code behind? What are the potential drawbacks for not using a BLL? | asp.net | asp | applications | businesslogiclayer | datalinklayer | null | open | ASP.Net 2.0 Application without Business Logic Layer?

Specifically I am using the TCP/IP binding for speed, but on the rare occurrence that the machine is not available I would like to redirect traffic to the failover server. Not too bothered about losing messages... I'd just prefer not to write the code to handle re-routing!

>/objects/object1.php<br/>

Now, I use those objects in both script.php and /soap/soap.php, I could move them, but I want the directory structure like that for a different reason. When executing script.php the include path is inc/include.php and when executing /soap/soap.php it's ../inc, absolute paths work, /mnt/webdev/[project name]/inc/include1.php... But it's an ugly solution if I ever move the directory to a different location.
So is there a way to use relative paths, or a way to programically generate the "/mnt/webdev/[project name]/"? | php | null | null | null | null | null | open | Include files requiring a absolute path

I use Notepad++ as my editor, but I was pretty appalled to find (as far as I can tell) that Venkman/Javascript Debugger is **the** tool for debugging. It seems like a poor replacement to Visual Studio for .Net languages.
Am I missing something? What are the best tools and best practices for JavaScript development? Is there some killer IDE/debugger/editor combination I'm not aware of?
It has to be easier than this, though.
I've heard some mention of Eclipse - is it a good choice here? I know very little about it. | javascript | tools | debugging | ide | null | null | open | Best Debbuging Tools for JavaScript Development
