dot Net Database

Four type of states are as under:

1.Application state

2.Session state

3.Cookie state

4.View state.

1. Native Support for Developing Mobile Web Applications

2. Unified Programming Model for Smart Client Application Development

3. Enable Code Access Security for ASP.NET Applications

4. Native Support for Communicating with ODBC and Oracle Databases

5. Supports for IPv6

There are two types of cookies

1)Persistance

2)Impersistance

Whenever you execute a program, the operating system creates a new task for it. The task is like an envelope for the program. It identifies the program with a task number and attaches other bookkeeping information to it.

An index

1. is sorted by key values, (that need not be the same as those of the table)

2. is small, has just a few columns of the table.

3. refers for a key value to the right block within the table.

4. speeds up reading a row, when you know the right search arguments.

a) Response.Clear( )

Clears the content of the current output stream.

b) Response.Close( )

Closes the network socket for the current response.

c) Response.End( )

Stops processing the current request and sends all buffered content to the client immediately.

We can deploy an ASP.NET Web application using any one of the following three deployment options.

a) Deployment using VS.NET installer

b) Using the Copy Project option in VS .NET

c) XCOPY Deployment

VARCHAR[(n)]

Null-terminated Unicode character string of length n,

with a maximum of 255 characters. If n is not supplied, then 1 is assumed.

a) Response.ClearContent( )

Clears the content of the current output stream.

b) Response.ClearHeaders( )

Clears the HTTP headers from the current output stream.

There are 6 objects in ASP.net

a) Server

b) Session

c) Application

d) ObjectContext

e) Response

f) Request

Opening a cursor on a result set allows processing the result set one row at a time.

The four API server cursor types supported by SQL Server are:

a) Static cursors

b) Dynamic cursors

c) Forward-only cursors

d) Keyset-driven cursors

STUFF - It deletes a specified length of characters and inserts another set of characters at a specified starting point. REPLACE -Replaces all occurrences of a specified string value with another string value.

Tracing is a very important monitoring and debugging tool for distributed, multitier applications. Such applications often contain problems that can only be observed when the application is under a heavy load and the inherent randomness of a real-life environment. Trace utility allows developers and administrators to monitor the health of applications running in real-life settings.

The Query Analyzer has a feature called Show Execution Plan. This option allows you to view the execution plan used by SQL Servers Query Optimizer to actually execute the query. This option is available from the Query menu on the main menu of Query Analyzer, and must be turned on before the query is executed. Once the query is executed, the results of the execution plan are displayed in graphical format in a separate window, available from a tab that appears below the query results window on the screen.

Execute method returns control to the page in which it is called once the page specified in the Execute method finishes processing, the Transfer method does not return control to the calling page.

DAO- can access only access database

ADO- can access any databases

Referential integrity preserves the defined relationships between tables when records are entered or deleted. In SQL Server, referential integrity is based on relationships between foreign keys and primary keys or between foreign keys and unique keys. Referential integrity ensures that key values are consistent across tables. Such consistency requires that there be no references to nonexistent values and that if a key value changes, all references to it change consistently throughout the database.

We can achieve this by using foreign key.

Replication is used for distributing data and the execution of stored procedures across an enterprise. The replication technology allows you to make duplicate copies of your data, move those copies to different locations, and synchronize the data automatically so that all copies have the same data values.

The different types of replications are

a) transactional replication

b) merge replication

SELECT count( * ) as totalrecords FROM employee

This will display total records under the name totalrecords in the table employee

use COUNT_BIG

Returns the number of items in a group.

@@ROWCOUNT

Returns the number of rows affected by the last statement.

Use this statement after an SQL select * statement, to retrieve the total number of rows in the table

The difference is that java is fully platform independent but .net is not fully independent ant other difference id that some tools of java is more complex compare with .net like setup and deployment.

but java and .net also some similarities that both platform are deploy window and web application and both are use server like IIs and tomcat5.5 .
