Wait For Single Event (of threading)

http://www.ms-news.net/f3598/how-to-implement-createevent-and-wait-for-single-event-in-c-2141327.html is a link from Google on "Wait For Single Event in C#"

Ravi said:
1. A "Wait For Single Event" is a "mutex"
2. We need an Out of Process event and not a "Critical Session" or "Semmipher" which are in-process events
3. We will fire up or check for the event from both apps. This is not unlike writing or checking for a cookie.
4. Behind the scenes a Virtual Table will be recreated for manging the events across apps
5. We are going to need to listen for an event or a callback function to know if it is OK to do file writing

Wait For Single Event

Created:

7/28/2011 6:43 AM

I had a conversation at work about "Wait For Single Event" (which I have not yet researched) and how it can be applicable to two different apps trying to read and write to a .txt file wherein file locking becomes problematic.

This concept is of a mutex (spelling?) which can be used across processes. I was told we would need an "Out of Process" event and not a "In-Process Event" such as a Critical Session or Semiphor (spelling?)

Apparently the Out of Process event will create a virtual table managing state for file IO operations that can be looked at by one app to see if a file is being manhandled by another app thus demanding a delay (wait for the manhandling to end) before latching onto the .txt file.

OK... this returns all of the columns by way of the star but makes two of the columns appear first for ease of reading. Yay!

However, please note that in this scenario one has to to the AS casting on the name the is being used in the order by logic as otherwise this error is thrown:

Filters

Created:

6/16/2011 10:27 AM

Filters may be for: Action, Authorization, Exceptions, Result

Index() action gets executed by something

Action Filters execute before/after action is exectued

build by inheirting form IActionFilter OR inheir from ActionFilterAttribute

The methods are
OnActionExecuted (after action executes)

OnActionExecuting (before the action executed and not DURING as the name implies)

why would you do this...

Populate common ViewData
Pre/Post process data

Common execution paths

Built-in:
OutputCacheAttribute

AsyncTimeoutAttibute

can get to the HttpContext to have at cookies...

Common Authorization Filters usage

NOT just security
Halt execution of action

Provide alternate result

Routing and Amazon

Created:

Amazon will have URLs like so: amazon.com/this-is-some-seo-text-that-isnt-used-in-routing/hp/12352342342323

In the global.asax you will see the route table

curly braces are what the routing engine uses

routes.MapRoute(

"Default",

"{controller}/{action}/{id}",

new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = "" }

);

in the last line one may tell the router that the values are not required to exist

add a new route

routes.MapRoute("privacy_policy", "privacy",

new {controller = "Help", action = "Privacy" });

more specific routes go first....

the first piece of a MapRoute is the name of the Route ...in the case below it is widgets

routes.MapRoute("widgets", "{widgetCode}/{action}",

new {controller = "Catalog", action = "Show"},

new {widgetCode = @"WDG[0-9]{4}"});

the last piece here is a widget code to try to match a widget instead of a controller

WDG followed by exactly four numbers

public ActionResult Show(string widgetCode)

var widget = GetWidget(widgetCode);

if (widget == null)

Response.StatusCode = 404;

this is how to use a custom route value as a variable

callbacks are expressed as delegates in C# ...the most common use of delegates is events

anytime you want less coupling between classes without using interfaces use delegates

the .NET runtime defines many common delegate forms: Predicate<T>, Action<T>, Func<T,bool> see http://twitpic.com/5ywx5m

REMOTE_ADDR versus LOCAL_ADDR

Created:

I think Stringcl.GetValue(Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"] returns the IP of a user's computer while Stringcl.GetValue(Request.ServerVariables["LOCAL_ADDR"] returns the IP of the server asking for an IP. This per http://www.w3schools.com/asp/coll_servervariables.asp

Encapsulation

Created:

8/15/2011 6:42 AM

In a programming language encapsulation is used to refer to one of two related but distinct notions, and sometimes to the combination [1]^[2] thereof:

A language mechanism for restricting access to some of the object's components.^[3]^[4]
A language construct that facilitates the bundling of data with the methods (or other functions) operating on that data.^[5]^[6]

this comes from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encapsulation_%28object-oriented_programming%29 and I read the Open/Closed principal onto the first bullet point and the concept of entities and objects onto the second bullet point.

$(function () {

// Keep a reference to the show attendees button for later

var button = $(this);

var callback = function (data, textStatus) {

// Place HTML returned from AJAX inside special p tag below

$('#attendees').html(data);

// Hide the show attendees button

button.hide();

};

// Issue an AJAX GET, to return HTML (and not JSON)

$.get(url, null, callback, 'html');
