How To Create GStrings In Javascript By Extending Core Data Types
» ‎ Ben Nadel ColdFusion And Web Development Feed @ BenNadel.com

This morning, I was looking at a tutorial on how to extend built-in Javacript objects by altering the Prototype of native Javacript classes. In doing this, you can add your own methods to Javascript String and Array instances (for example). The down side to this approach is that this affects every new and existing instance of the altered data types (all instances of a given type share a common prototype). This got me thinking about Javascript object extension in general, and I wondered, rathe ... Read More »

What Happens When A ColdFusion CFLock Timeout Is Exceeded Without Error?
» ‎ Ben Nadel ColdFusion And Web Development Feed @ BenNadel.com

Last week, when I was working on my jQuery Photo Tagger plugin (for Flickr-style photo annotation) , I was using CFLock to create thread-safe cache updates in the ColdFusion aspect of the code. As I was doing that, it occurred to me - I wasn't 100% sure what would happen if the timeout (indicated by the CFLock tag) was exceeded and no error was thrown?

Built-in Charting Controls (VS 2010 and .NET 4 Series)
» ‎ ScottGu's Blog
[In addition to blogging, I am also now using Twitter for quick updates and to share links. Follow me at: twitter.com/scottgu]

This is the fifteenth in a series of blog posts I’m doing on the upcoming VS 2010 and .NET 4 release. Today’s post covers a nice addition to ASP.NET and Windows Forms with .NET 4 - built-in charting control support.
ASP.NET and Windows Forms Charting Controls
A little over 14 months ago I blogged about how Microsoft was making available a free download of charting controls for both ASP.NET 3.5 and Windows Forms 3.5.

You can download and use these runtime controls for free within your web and client applications today. You can also download VS 2008 tooling support for them. They provide a rich set of charting capabilities that is easy to use. To get a sense of what all you can do with them, I recommend downloading the ASP.NET and Windows Forms sample projects which provide more than 200 samples within them. Below is a screen-shot of some pie and doughnut chart samples from the ASP.NET sample application:

Charting Controls Now Built-into .NET 4
With .NET 3.5 you had to separately download the chart controls and add them into your application. With .NET 4 these controls are now built-into ASP.NET 4 and Windows Forms 4 – which means you can immediately take advantage of them out of the box (no separate download or registration required).

Within ASP.NET 4 applications you’ll find that there is now a new built-in <asp:chart> control within the “Data” tab of the Toolbox:

You can use this control without having to register or wire-up any configuration file entries. All of the charting control configuration is now pre-registered with ASP.NET 4 (meaning nothing has to be added to an application’s web.config file for them to work). This enables you to maintain very clean and minimal Web.config files.
Learning more about the <asp:chart> control
Scott Mitchell has written a great series of articles on the www.4guysfromrolla.com site on how to take advantage of the <asp:chart> control:
1. Getting Started - walks through getting started using the Chart Controls, from version requirements to downloading and installing the Chart Controls, to displaying a simple chart in an ASP.NET page.
2. Plotting Chart Data - examines the multitude of ways by which data can be plotted on a chart, from databinding to manually adding the points one at a time.
3. Rendering the Chart - the Chart Controls offer a variety of ways to render the chart data into an image. This article explores these options.
4. Sorting and Filtering Chart Data - this article shows how to programmatically sort and filter the chart's data prior to display.
5. Programmatically Generating Chart Images - learn how to programmatically create and alter the chart image file.
6. Creating Drill Down Reports - see how to build drill down reports using the Chart control.
7. Adding Statistical Formulas - learn how to add statistical formulas, such as mean, median, variance, and forecasts, to your charts.
8. Enhancing Charts With Ajax - improve the user experience for dynamic and interactive charts using Ajax.
His articles are written using .NET 3.5 and the separate ASP.NET charting controls download – but all of the concepts and syntax work out of the box exactly the same with ASP.NET 4.

Michael Ceranski has also written a blog post demonstrating how to use the ASP.NET Chart control within an ASP.NET MVC application. I’m hoping someone will create some nice ASP.NET MVC Html.Chart() helper methods soon that will make this even easier to do in the future.

Hope this helps,

Scott

When scripting in PHP, we often restrict ourselves to a limited number of API functions: the common ones, like print(), header(), define(), isset(), htmlspecialchars(), etc. If some needed functionality doesn’t exist, we often write it making use of these basic components which we have in mind. The PHP API actually offers a lot of functionality, some useless and some useful; often seldom used. I have been looking through the available functions and was interested to find some really cool functions that I should have known about. Here, I share my findings.

C++ Concurrency in Action: Exception Safety in Parallel Algorithms

Exception safety is an essential aspect of good C++ code, and code that uses concurrency is no exception. In fact, parallel algorithms often need more care taken with regards to concurrency than normal sequential algorithms. If an operation in a sequential algorithm throws an exception, then the algorithm only has to worry about ensuring that it tidies up after itself to avoid resource leaks and broken invariants; it can merrily allow the exception to propagate to the caller for them to handle.

While Griffon is primarily a Groovy/Java and Swing framework you may combine Clojure, Scala and JavaFX source code. You may also pick SWT, JavaFx, Pivot or GTK as the UI toolkit. Thus Griffon goes beyond a regular desktop development framework by offering polyglot programming if desired.

Programmatically Uploading Images To JING At ScreenCast.com Using ColdFusion
» ‎ Ben Nadel ColdFusion And Web Development Feed @ BenNadel.com

Here at work, we use JING all the time to share ideas; it's by far the easiest way that I've ever seen to quickly take screen captures, annotate them, and then share them with other people. When capturing part of your screen using JING, you have the option to upload it ("share it") to ScreenCast.com. Doing this uploads the image to a unique URL and then automatically copies this unique URL to your clipboard (which you can then IM to so ... Read More »

ASP.NET MVC 2 (Release Candidate 2) Now Available
» ‎ ScottGu's Blog
[In addition to blogging, I am also now using Twitter for quick updates and to share links. Follow me at: twitter.com/scottgu]

Earlier this evening the ASP.NET team shipped ASP.NET MVC (Release Candidate 2) for VS 2008/.NET 3.5. You can download it here.

The RC2 release of ASP.NET MVC 2 is a follow-up to the first ASP.NET MVC 2 RC build that we shipped in December. It includes a bunch of bug fixes, performance work, and some final API and behavior additions/changes. Below are a few of the changes between the RC1 and RC2 release (read the release notes for even more details):
- The new ASP.NET MVC 2 validation feature now performs model-validation instead of input-validation (this means that when you use model binding all model properties are validated instead of just validations on changed values of a model). This behavior change was based on extensive feedback from the community.
- The new strongly-typed HTML input helpers now support lambda expressions which reference array or collection indexes. This means you can now write code like Html.EditorFor(m=>m.Orders[i]) and have it correctly output an HTML <input> element whose “name” attribute contains the index (e.g. Orders[0] for the first element), and whose “value” contains the appropriate value.
- The new templated Html.EditorFor() and Html.DisplayFor() helper methods now auto-scaffold simple properties (and do not render complex sub-properties by default). This makes it easier to generate automatic scaffolded forms. I’ll be covering this support in a future blog post.
- The “id” attribute of client-script validation message elements is now cleaner. With RC1 they had a form0_ prefix. Now the id value is simply the input form element name postfixed with a validationMessage string (e.g. unitPrice_validationMessage).
- The Html.ValidationSummary() helper method now takes an optional boolean parameter which enables you to control whether only model-level validation messages are rendered by it, or whether property level validation messages are rendered as well. This provides you with more UI customization options for how validation messages are displayed within your UI.
- The AccountController class created with the default ASP.NET MVC Web Application project template is cleaner.
- Visual Studio now includes scaffolding support for Delete action methods within Controllers, as well as Delete views (I always found it odd that the default T4 templates didn’t support this before).
- jQuery 1.4.1 is now included by default with new ASP.NET MVC 2 projects, along with a –vsdoc file that provides Visual Studio documentation intellisense for it.
- The RC2 release has some significant performance tuning improvements (for example: the lambda based strongly-typed HTML helpers are now much faster).
Today’s RC2 release only work with VS 2008 and .NET 3.5. We’ll shortly be releasing the VS 2010 RC (which will be available for everyone to download). It will include ASP. NET MVC 2 support built-in (no separate download required).

Hope this helps,

Scott

P.S. The source code for the ASP.NET MVC RC2 release (along with a MVC futures library that goes with it) can be downloaded here. You can learn even more about ASP.NET MVC 2 by reading the ASP.NET MVC 2 blog series I’m working on.
