SELECT [time] = RIGHT(’0′+ RTRIM(CAST(substring(’28:12′,1,2)%24 as NCHAR(2))),2)+’:'+substring(’28:12′,4,5)

Sample results:
08:00=08:00
23:45=23:45
24:00=00:00
28:12=04:12

If you know a better way, please let me know!

Lets create a new class that we can inherit on all activities that requires login:

public class LogedInActivity extends Activity {

	public class LogoutReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
		@Override
		public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
			if (intent.getAction().equals("com.package.ACTION_LOGOUT")) {
				finish();
			}
		}
	}

	private LogoutReceiver logoutReceiver;

	@Override
	protected void onDestroy() {
		// Unregister the logout receiver
		unregisterReceiver(logoutReceiver);
		super.onDestroy();
	}

	@Override
	protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
		super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

		logoutReceiver = new LogoutReceiver();

		// Register the logout receiver
		IntentFilter intentFilter = new IntentFilter();
		intentFilter.addAction("com.package.ACTION_LOGOUT");
		registerReceiver(logoutReceiver, intentFilter);

	}

}

Then when you press the logout button you can close all open activities by just sending a broadcast intent:

// on your logout method:
Intent broadcastIntent = new Intent();
broadcastIntent.setAction("com.package.ACTION_LOGOUT");
c.sendBroadcast(broadcastIntent);

 I have created a new tool to to draw a nine patch image for android online. Its free and easy to use!

Please try it out: http://draw9patch.com/

-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8

I have compile a DLL (with the source code taken from codeproject)

Download ImageVisualizer.dll and put the dll in “C:\Users\{Username}\Documents\Visual Studio {Version}\Visualizers”

        public void XForm_ControlSetup(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
                var control = (XFormControl)sender;
                control.AfterSubmitPostedData += XForm_AfterSubmitPostedData;
        }

        public void XForm_AfterSubmitPostedData(object sender, SaveFormDataEventArgs e)
        {
            var control = (XFormControl)sender;

            if (control.FormDefinition.PageGuidAfterPost != Guid.Empty)
            {
                var pageMap = PermanentLinkMapStore.Find(control.FormDefinition.PageGuidAfterPost) as PermanentPageLinkMap;
                if (pageMap != null)
                {
                    control.Page.Response.Redirect(pageMap.MappedUrl.ToString());
                    return;
                }
            }
        }

If XForm_AfterSubmitPostedData is never triggered this is probably because the SMTP settings is wrong in web.config(!!?).

IMOHO this is a bug and a very stupid way to handle this error, episerver should throw an exception!

Anyway… go ahead and download smtp4dev which is a great dummy SMTP server for developers. And then change the SMTP settings in web.config to something like this:

    <mailSettings>
      <smtp from="noreply@dummy.com" deliveryMethod="Network">
        <network host="localhost" port="25" userName="" password="" defaultCredentials="false" />
      </smtp>
    </mailSettings>

Voila!

void Session_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
 string ip = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["AutoLoginIp"];
 if (Request.UserHostAddress != null && Request.UserHostAddress.Equals(ip))
 {
 LoginAs("theUserName");
 }
}

public void LoginAs(string username)
{
 FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(username, false);
 System.Web.HttpCookie authCookie = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.Cookies[FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName];
 if (authCookie != null)
 {
 FormsAuthenticationTicket authTicket = FormsAuthentication.Decrypt(authCookie.Value);

 if (authTicket != null && !authTicket.Expired)
 {
 FormsAuthenticationTicket newAuthTicket = authTicket;

 if (FormsAuthentication.SlidingExpiration)
 {
 newAuthTicket = FormsAuthentication.RenewTicketIfOld(authTicket);
 }
 if (newAuthTicket != null)
 {
 string userData = newAuthTicket.UserData;
 string[] roles = userData.Split(',');

 System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User =
 new System.Security.Principal.GenericPrincipal(new FormsIdentity(newAuthTicket), roles);
 }
 }
 }
}

You could use only “FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie" but in that case you are not logged in before next request. ]]> http://warting.se/2011/02/16/authenticate-user-in-c-without-username-and-password/feed/ 0 http://warting.se/2011/02/16/authenticate-user-in-c-without-username-and-password/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/warting/~3/f2maePHhHmg/ http://warting.se/2011/01/04/remove-role-from-paren/#comments Tue, 04 Jan 2011 16:14:03 +0000 admin http://warting.se/?p=1359 When creating a page in EPiServer the page inherits the parent’s ACL.

To remove a role in the on create page event you need the following:

private static void Instance_CreatedPage(object sender, PageEventArgs e)
{
   if (e.Page != null)
   {
      var kb = e.Page;
      var acl = new PageAccessControlList(kb.PageLink)
         {
            new AccessControlEntry("Everyone", AccessLevel.NoAccess, SecurityEntityType.Role),
            new AccessControlEntry("AnotherRole", AccessLevel.NoAccess, SecurityEntityType.Role),
            new AccessControlEntry("UserName", AccessLevel.NoAccess, SecurityEntityType.User)
         };
      acl.Save();
   }
}
