When calling ASP.NET Web API service inside the solution, I encountered an issue that is 404 not found. Given that this issue persists, I tried adding a forward slash before the url in the Ajax call which works. AngularJS $http({ //url: "EmployeeRoute/GetAll", //404 error url: "/EmployeeRoute/GetAll" , dataType: 'json' , method: 'POST' , data: GetAll, headers: { "Content-Type" : "application/json" } }).then( function (resp) { if ( typeof resp.data === 'object' ) { return resp.data; } else { return $q.reject(response.data); } }, function (err) { return $q.reject(err.data); }); I also make sure that the WebApiConfig.Register method gets executed in Global.asax.cs. Global.asax.cs protected void Application_Start( object sender, EventArgs e) { GlobalConfiguration.Configure(WebApiConfig.Register); }

Good day! I've been trying to consume an ASP.NET Web Method using AngularJS $http service and all I get from the response is the html page source instead of string data. After investigating and doing some searching, the workaround is to set the responseType to json and pass an empty data to the Web Method given that the Web Method has no parameter. var myapp = angular.module( 'myApp' , []); myapp.controller( 'ctrl' , function ($scope, $http) { $http({ url: "63MakeAjaxCallAndReturnJSONWebService.aspx/HelloWorld" , dataType: 'json' , method: "POST" , responseType: 'json' , data: {}, headers: { "Content-Type" : "application/json;" } }).then( function (response) { $scope.value = response.data.d; }); }); And also declare the Web Method as static. [WebMethod()] public static string HelloWorld() { return "Hello World!" ; }

This issue "ASP.NET 4.5 Has Not Been Registered on the Web Server" occurred when I opened an asp.net application built with Visual Studio 2012 recently when I installed Visual Studio 2015 in my laptop with a Windows 8 operating system. Given that this happens I assume that some settings may have been updated or corrupted by the recent version of VS. The solutions I have tried included registering asp.net through Visual Studio command tools with no effect. After searching through the web, I found a solution which is to download the hotfix for VS 2012 here Unexpected dialog box appears when you open projects in Visual Studio 2012 after you install the .NET Framework 4.5.3 . After downloading and installing the hotfix, the issue was resolved.

Hello Here's a custom DateTimePicker with background color and image icon instead of using the ComboBoxRenderer class. The icon is an image that is added to the project as part of it's resource. The adding of icon is processed through the WndProc method while the setting of background color is handled in the OnPaint() event. Notice that in the constructor, the SetStyle()'s parameters are ControlStyles.UserPaint so that the control paints itself and true to apply the specified style to the control. public class DateTimePickerWithBackground : DateTimePicker { private Bitmap _bmp; enum BorderSize { One = 1, Two = 2 }; public DateTimePickerWithBackground() { _bmp = new Bitmap(ClientRectangle.Height, ClientRectangle.Width); this .SetStyle(ControlStyles.UserPaint, true ); } protected override void WndProc( ref Message m) { base .WndProc( ref m); if (m.Msg == 0xf) //WM_PAINT message { Graphics g = Graphics.FromHwnd(m.HWnd); g.Dra

Good day! Often times when developing custom controls you will add images or icons to enhance the UI through the Bitmap class. But when getting the image from file using Image.FromFile(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + @"\calendar.png") you may encounter issues such as "path is null" since the path pointed by the BaseDirectory isn't the executable path. A simple workaround is to set the path of the image using hardcoded like Image.FromFile(@"C:\Images\ProjectX\calendar.png") . While this is acceptable, it is ugly to look at and may cause potential issues once the image has been transferred to another location. An accepted solution is to add the image as a project resource then reference it in the custom control code. To accomplish that, here are the steps. * Right Click on the Project -> Properties * In Resources, select Add Resource Dropdown -> Add Existing File - Choose the image or icon to be used as resource. Once done, it wil

Hello, This post is based on the article Understanding the basics of MVVM design pattern . The author demonstrated the basics of MVVM using TextBlock controls. However, the code samples have several issues and in order for the sample application to work, I revise them with the following changes. BindableBase.cs - since SetProperty method uses T in it's parameter, you also need to reference T in your classname. public class BindableBase <T> : INotifyPropertyChanged { ... } MainPageViewModel.cs - update the code in the constructor to bind a single object to the TextBlock controls. public class MainPageViewModel : BindableBase<Book> { private Book _book; public Book Book { get { return _book; } set { SetProperty( ref _book, value ); } } public MainPageViewModel() { Book = new Book() { Title = "Harry Potter" , Author = "J. K. Rowling" , Category = "Young-adult fiction"
