Get No. of Users On-line in ASP.net Membership

Hello all,

In our web application many times we need to display, that how many numbers of users are on-line, This is become quite easy if we are making use of ASP.Net Membership in our application. The Membership is having a function which directly gives us the no. of users on-line in the web site. "Membership.GetNumberOfUsersOnline(); " this function gives us the list of users on-line.

Here is a implementation of this code in c#

System.Collections.Generic.List<string> lstUserOnline = new System.Collections.Generic.List<string>();

int intUsersOnline = Membership.GetNumberOfUsersOnline();

foreach(MembershipUser usr in Membership.GetAllUsers())
{
if(usr.IsOnline)
{
lstUserOnline.Items.Add(usr.UserName);
}
}

//Bind the List to the ListBox
ListBox1.DataSource = lstUserOnline;
ListBox1.DataBind();

But there are some cases which are hard to track, that Suppose if any users have Closed his browser window without Logging out from the application, in that the Users remains On-line so it will also come under the list. So to avoid this issue up to some extent we can make use of logout time setting in the web config file, where we can easily set the time-out for a user, if he is not active any more. The entry will be like this.

<membership defaultProvider="SqlProvider"
userIsOnlineTimeWindow="20">
<providers>
<add name="SqlProvider"
type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider"
connectionStringName="SqlServices"
enablePasswordRetrieval="true"
enablePasswordReset="false"
requiresQuestionAndAnswer="true"
passwordFormat="Encrypted"
applicationName="MyApplication" />
</providers>
</membership>

Hope You have like this small piece of code. Please feel free to post the comment or any issue regarding this code.

Thanks,

Silverlight 5 Plans

Hello All,

I got this news from one of my fellow Silverlight MVP, that the Microsoft is planning for the new version of silver light that is Version 5, with some new features and capability for helping the developer to create some good application.. I have seen the Blog of Timheuer here is the Blog link from where I have got these information. http://tinyurl.com/2wdx6ge

Here are some of the features For the Media side

• Hardware Decode and presentation of H.264 media
• “TrickPlay” allows video to be played at different speeds and supports fast-forward and rewind. At up to twice the speed, audio pitch correction allows users to watch videos while preserving a normal audio pitch.
• Improved power awareness prevents the screen saver from being shown while watching video and allows the computer to sleep when video is not active.
• Remote-control support allowing users to control media playback.
• Digital rights management advancements allow seamless switching between DRM media sources.

And In the Application Development side.

• Fluid user interface enables smoother animation within the UI. Layout transitions allow developers to specify animations to apply when elements are added, removed or re-ordered within a layout. This provides smoother user experiences when, for example, items are inserted into a list.
• Text improvements make it possible to build rich magazine-style text layouts:
• Multicolumn text and linked text container allow text to flow around other elements.
• Tracking/leading set precisely how far apart each character is for full creative control.
• Text clarity is improved with Pixel Snapping.
• Text layout performance is significantly improved.
• OpenType support has been enhanced.
• Support for Postscript vector printing enables users to create reports and documents, including the ability to create a virtual print view different from what is shown on the screen.
• Applications can now work the way users expect with added support for double-click and ComboBox type ahead.
• Databinding enhancements allow more work to be done more easily via XAML:
• Debugging support now allows breakpoints to be set on a binding, so you can step through binding failures.
• Implicit DataTemplates allow templates to be created across an application to support a particular type by default.
• Ancestor RelativeSource allows, for example, a DataTemplate to bind to a property on the control that contains it.
• Binding in style setters allows bindings to be used within styles to reference other properties.
• The DataContextChanged event is being introduced. Markup extensions allow code to be run at XAML parse time for both properties and event handlers, enabling cutting-edge MVVM support.
• Networking and Windows Communication Foundation enhancements:
• Reduced network latency by using a background thread for networking.
• WS-Trust support: Security Assertion Markup Language authentication token.
• Silverlight 5 performance improvements include these:
• Reduced network latency by using a background thread for networking.
• XAML parser improvements that speed up startup and runtime performance.
• Support for 64-bit operating systems.
• Graphics improvements
• Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) accelerated 3-D application programming interface (API) provides rich graphics on the Web for building advanced data visualizations and rich user experience (UI).
• Immediate mode graphics API allows direct rendering to the GPU.
• Hardware acceleration is enabled in windowless mode with Internet Explorer 9.
• Silverlight offers a new class of trusted applications that brings desktop capabilities to the browser for the first time. These features, when enabled via a group policy registry key and an application certificate, mean users won’t need to leave the browser to perform complex tasks:
• Host HTML content as a Web browser control within the Silverlight application. HTML pages, such as help content or e-mail, can be integrated within the application.
• Read and write files to the user’s My Documents folder, making it easier to find media files or create local copies of reports.
• Launch Microsoft Office and other desktop programs. Users can open Microsoft Outlook and create an e-mail message, or send a report to Word utilizing the power of Office.
• Access devices and other system capabilities by calling into application COM components. Users can access a USB security card reader or a bar-code scanner.
• Enjoy full keyboard support in full screen, which enables richer kiosk and media viewing applications.
• Call existing unmanaged code directly from within Silverlight with P/Invoke.
• Out-of-browser trusted applications are further enhanced:
• Existing unmanaged code can be called directly from within Silverlight with P/Invoke.
• Child Window support allows multiple windows to be launched from the application.

You can read the detail article on this blog Here. And please post your comment and suggestion so that we can forward it to the silver light team.

Thanks,

Binding Silverlight DataGrid with XML file

Hello All,

In this article I would like to discuss about binding value to a Silver light DataGrid. As we know that there is no direct support for the Dataset or DataTable in the Silver light, so how can we bind the grid??? See there are multiple option for binding the grid in silver light either we can use the-

1. 1. Collection of the Item Class,
2. or a Dictionary or
3. we can also use a XML File

In this article I am going to describe the way to bind a XML file that is present in the server Side, that means a User XML file can be bind to the grid in the Silver light form.Here I am Making use of LINQ to read the data from XMl file.

first We Will see that how can we access the XML file and its element. Please check the below Code.

private void getDatFromXML()
{
Uri newURL = new Uri("mydata.xml", UriKind.Relative);
WebClient cnt = new WebClient();
cnt.DownloadStringCompleted += new DownloadStringCompletedEventHandler(cnt_DownloadStringCompleted);
cnt.DownloadStringAsync(url);
}

Private void cnt_DownloadStringCompleted(object sender, DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs e)
{
dataGrid1.ItemsSource = ReadListItem(e.Result);
}

public List<Item> ReadListItem(string xmlContent)
{
List<Item> il = new List<Item>();
XElement doc = XElement.Parse(xmlContent);
il = (from ele in doc.Elements()
select GetItem(ele)).ToList();
return il;

}

You have seen that how first we downloaded the file from the server machine and then reading its content to bind the Grid. Here ReadListItem is a generic function which returns us the LIST ITEM collection, the collection can be easily bind to the Silver light data grid. We just have to set the ItemSource property of the Silver Light Data Grid. like.

dataGrid1.ItemsSource = ReadListItem(e.Result);

I hope you have Got the Idea. Please look at the XAML part of the XML file that how the content looks.

<UserControl x:Class="DataBinding.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:DesignHeight="513" d:DesignWidth="662" xmlns:sdk="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation/sdk">

<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White" Height="600" Width="600">
<sdk:DataGrid AutoGenerateColumns="False" Height="200" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="20,30,0,0" Name="dataGrid1" VerticalAlignment="Top"Width="450" />
</Grid>
</UserControl>

Hope You Understood the Way to bind the DataGrid in Silver light by a XML file. Please feel free to post the comments.

InitParameters In Silverlight

Hello friends,

Today I am going to discuss about the InitParameters. These are used to pass some initial value from the aspx page to our silverlight page. In some situation there is a need to pass some values to our silverlight page using our calling page of aspx. Silverlight handles this situation using the INITPARAMETERS. Using the InitParameters is very easy.

The value which we have passed using the parameters can be accessed inside the application start-up event of the app.xaml file. Either we can pass the parameter using the XAML or we can also pass these parameters using the code. the below are the sample for Doing so.

By XAML

We can directly pass the parameters in the aspx page from where we have defined our XAP file to be called on that page like.

InitParameters="Name=Anil,Country=INDIA"
Width="500" 

Or by the code like this.

MySilverlightPage.InitParameters="Name=Anil,Country=INDIA"

And for receiving these paramter Open the App.Xaml file and look for the below event

private void Application_Startup(object sender, StartupEventArgs e)

{

this.RootVisual = new MainPage();

}

In the Above function use the below code to access the parameters passed by the page.

      string Param1 =   e.InitParams[ "Name" ];

      string Param2 =   e.InitParams[ "Country" ];

We have to make use of the string variables to store the value of the paramters. so the above function will be like this.

private void Application_Startup(object sender, StartupEventArgs e)

{

this.RootVisual = new MainPage();

         string Param1 =   e.InitParams[ "Name" ];

         string Param2 =   e.InitParams[ "Country" ];

}

Isn't its Simple. I hope You have liked this sample. I will come up with some new samples on WPF and Silverlight. Please post your comment and let me know what else example you would like to see in the next articles..

Thanks
