The error I got looked something like this:

HTTP Error 404.3 – Not Found

The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be downloaded, add a MIME map. Detailed Error InformationModule StaticFileModule.

There were more errors related to local machine below these errors.I looked up the net and after some digging figured out the solution to the problem:

1. Run Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt as “Administrator”.
2. Navigate to C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.0\Windows Communication Foundation.
3. Run this command servicemodelreg –i.
The servicemodelreg is a command line tool which provides the ability to manage the registration on ServiceModel on a machine.

This episode features industry luminary, Anders Hejlsberg. Before coming to Microsoft in 1996 he was well noted for his work as the principal engineer of Turbo Pascal and the chief architect of the Delphi product line. At Microsoft he was architect for the Visual J++ development system and the Windows Foundation Classes (WFC). Promoted to Distinguished Engineer in 2000, Anders is the chief designer of the C# programming language and a key participant in the development of Microsoft’s .NET framework. In this show, Anders is joined by a surprise guest.

This episode of “Behind the Code” is hosted by Barbara Fox – former senior security architect of cryptography and digital rights management for Microsoft.

XML variables in SQL Server 2005 make it easy to “shred” XML strings into relational data. The main new methods you’ll need to use are value() and nodes() which allow us to select values from XML documents.

Sql Code

DECLARE @productIds xml
SET @productIds ='<Products><id>3</id><id>6</id><id>15</id></Products>'

SELECT
ParamValues.ID.value('.','VARCHAR(20)')
FROM @productIds.nodes('/Products/id') AS ParamValues(ID)

Which gives us the following three rows:

3
6
15

Alright, just show me how to pass a list in a procedure parameter already!

Here’s a proc which takes a single XML parameter. We first declare a table variable (@Products) and load the XML values into it. Once that’s done, we can join against the @Products table as if it were any other table in the database.

Sql Code

CREATE PROCEDURE SelectByIdList(@productIds xml) AS

DECLARE @Products TABLE (ID int)

INSERT INTO @Products (ID) SELECT ParamValues.ID.value('.','VARCHAR(20)')
FROM @productIds.nodes('/Products/id') AS ParamValues(ID)

SELECT * FROM
    Products
INNER JOIN
    @Products p
ON    Products.ProductID = p.ID

Now we can call it as follows:

Source code

EXEC SelectByIdList @productIds='<Products><id>3</id><id>6</id><id>15</id></Products>'

In order to use this, you’ll need to an XML string with your ID’s.:

csharp Code

public static string BuildXmlString(string xmlRootName, string[] values)
{
StringBuilder xmlString = new StringBuilder();

xmlString.AppendFormat("<{0}>", xmlRootName);
for (int i = 0; i < values.Length; i++)
{
xmlString.AppendFormat("<id>{0}</id>", values[i]);
}
xmlString.AppendFormat("</{0}>", xmlRootName);

return xmlString.ToString();
}

the following code convert string to date which is in
“d/M/yyyy” or “dd/MM/yyyy” or “d/MM/yyyy” or “dd/M/yyyy”

string MyDate = "12/12/2012";
