I'm trying to follow an example, but I think it was written for an older version so I am looking for the umbraco 7 equivalent to this:
List<PropertyType> types = PropertyType.GetAll().ToList();
Umbraco.Core.Models.PropertyType' does not contain a definition for 'GetAll' - this is the current error I am getting.
You can use new services.
For working with DataTypes - DataTypeService
var ds = ApplicationContext.Current.Services.DataTypeService;
var dataTypes = ds.GetAllDataTypes();

I have this custom api called "pits_PostProjectLineEntries" which takes in a EntityCollection called Transactions. I am using the option to have the entities in that EntityCollection to be expando since I really not need to create a table to hold this entities. I am able to call the custom api via PostMan with some raw json, and it works perfectly. My issue is when I use C# Plugins, I am getting errors messages about the entities logical name within Transactions collection. Is there a way to tell the Xrm SDK that these entities are not tied to a physical table but are just expando.
Here is the code that calls the Custom API for ref.
_transactions = new List<Entity>();
Entity Transaction = new Entity("");
Transaction["date"] = userReport.GetAttributeValue<DateTime>("pits_date");
Transaction["project"] = userReport.GetAttributeValue<EntityReference>("pits_project");
Transaction["resource"] = userReport.GetAttributeValue<EntityReference>("pits_user");
Transaction["task"] = userReport.GetAttributeValue<EntityReference>("pits_task");
Transaction["worktype"] = response["WorkType"];
Transaction["shifttype"] = response["ShiftType"];
Transaction["quantity"] = RG;
Transaction["chargeable"] = true;
Transaction["tx_type"] = 361200000;
_transactions.Add(Transaction);
EntityCollection Transactions = new EntityCollection(_transactions);
OrganizationRequest request = new OrganizationRequest("pits_PostProjectLineEntries");
request.Parameters.Add("Transactions", Transactions);
var response = _context.OrganizationService.Execute(request);
The error message I get is:
An unexpected error occurred: The entity with a name = '' with namemapping = 'Logical' was not found in the MetadataCache.
I am trying to call this custom api and pass it an entity that is tied to a DV Table from the C# sdk.
Sorry if the formatting is bad, I have been using stack overflow for a long time, but first time posting
This is a known bug with Expando entities in the currently shipping SDK assemblies, The Dataverse ServiceClient version (.net / cross platform) of the SDK should be working correctly at this time. You can get that here: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.PowerPlatform.Dataverse.Client/
The libraries from Microsoft.CrmSdk.CoreAssemblies will have the fix on next update (at the time of this writing)
I have a column ("DataDict") storing type of Dictionary (let say the variable name is call "dataDict")
Recently I've updated to Parse Unity 1.6.2 and I found out that whenever I make an update to dataDict, it doesn't get updated to the server.
For example:
Dictionary<string, object> dict = ParseUser.CurrentUser["DataDict"] as Dictionary<string, object>;
dict["name"] = "something new";
// after I call ParseUser.CurrentUser.SaveAsync()
// the server should have updated the dictionary
// but it's no longer working as what I expected after I've updated to Parse 1.6.2
Does anyone know what's going on?
I noticed one of the keypoint that listed in the changelogs:
Removed 'mutable containers' functionality, significantly enhances performance.
Does this affected my codes? How should I fix it?
I've solved this by calling
ParseUser.CurrentUser["DataDict"] = dict;
I followed the steps described in this tutorial.
I tried to translate the code from Objective-C to Swift. This is the code I have:
var l2tpInterface = SCNetworkInterfaceCreateWithInterface(
kSCNetworkInterfaceIPv4,
kSCNetworkInterfaceTypeL2TP
).takeUnretainedValue();
var pppInterface = SCNetworkInterfaceCreateWithInterface(
l2tpInterface,
kSCNetworkInterfaceTypePPP
).takeUnretainedValue();
var prefs = SCPreferencesCreate(nil,"SoybeanVPN",nil).takeUnretainedValue();
var service = SCNetworkServiceCreate(prefs, pppInterface).takeUnretainedValue();
var success = SCNetworkServiceEstablishDefaultConfiguration(service);
This code returns a runtime error EXEC_BAD_ACCESS(code=1) at the first line.
I googled this error and someone said the problem is caused by using released object in Objective-C? Is that the same in Swift? Does anyone have any experience with VPN creation in Swift?
UPDATE:
I tried to debug and find the const value of kSCNetworkInterfaceIPv4 is invalid, see the attached image:
Is that a bug of Swift?
I believe kSCNetworkInterfaceIPv4 is not the problem, because I can use it just fine to create L2TP/IPSec and Cisco VPNs using Swift.
It's rather tricky to handle C pointers in Swift, but this is how I do it, using Swift 2.3. Notice the wrapping/unwrapping with ! of C-Reference objects.
let initialTopInterface: SCNetworkInterfaceRef!
let initialBottomInterface: SCNetworkInterfaceRef!
// L2TP on top of IPv4
initialBottomInterface = SCNetworkInterfaceCreateWithInterface(kSCNetworkInterfaceIPv4, kSCNetworkInterfaceTypeL2TP)
// PPP on top of L2TP
initialTopInterface = SCNetworkInterfaceCreateWithInterface(initialBottomInterface!, kSCNetworkInterfaceTypePPP)
let service = SCNetworkServiceCreate(usingPreferencesRef, initialTopInterface!)
// Now you assign the attributes
SCNetworkServiceSetName(service, ("Some Name" as CFString))
// myConfiguration is a Hash with your relevant Key/Value pairs
SCNetworkInterfaceSetConfiguration(topInterface!, myConfiguration)
// Here is a good example for why Swift may just crash if you're not careful
let temporaryString:CFString = "IPSec"
SCNetworkInterfaceSetExtendedConfiguration(topInterface!, temporaryString, myL2tpConfiguration)
SCNetworkServiceEstablishDefaultConfiguration(service)
You can find a working implementation (for macOS Sierra) on Github
Just need copy all SCNetworkInterface's
SCNetworkInterfaceCopyAll()
Insert it at the beginning, before creating interfaces
I'm trying to serialize objects as JSON with MVC4 WebAPI (RTM - just installed VS2012 RTM today but was having this problem yesterday in the RC) and I'd like for all nulls to be rendered in the JSON output.
Like this:
[{"Id": 1, "PropertyThatMightBeNull": null},{"Id":2, "PropertyThatMightBeNull": null}]
But what Im getting is
[{"Id":1},{"Id":2}]
I've found this Q/A WebApi doesnt serialize null fields but the answer either doesn't work for me or I'm failing to grasp where to put the answer.
Here's what I've tried:
In Global.asax.cs's Application_Start, I added:
var json = GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.Formatters.JsonFormatter;
json.SerializerSettings.NullValueHandling = Newtonsoft.Json.NullValueHandling.Include;
json.SerializerSettings.DefaultValueHandling = Newtonsoft.Json.DefaultValueHandling.Include;
This doesn't (seem to) error and seems to actually execute based on looking at the next thing I tried.
In a controller method (in a subclass of ApiController), added:
base.Configuration.Formatters.JsonFormatter.SerializerSettings.NullValueHandling = Newtonsoft.Json.NullValueHandling.Include;
base.Configuration.Formatters.JsonFormatter.SerializerSettings.DefaultValueHandling = Newtonsoft.Json.DefaultValueHandling.Include;
I say #1 executed because both values in #2 were already set before those lines ran as I stepped through.
In a desperation move (because I REALLY don't want to decorate every property of every object) I tried adding this attrib to a property that was null and absent:
[JsonProperty(DefaultValueHandling = DefaultValueHandling.Include,
NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Include)]
All three produce the same JSON with null properties omitted.
Additional notes:
Running locally in IIS (tried built in too), Windows 7, VS2012 RTM.
Controller methods return List -- tried IEnumerable too
The objects I'm trying to serialize are pocos.
This won't work:
var json = GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.Formatters.JsonFormatter;
json.SerializerSettings.NullValueHandling = Newtonsoft.Json.NullValueHandling.Include;
But this does:
GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.Formatters.JsonFormatter.SerializerSettings = new Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializerSettings()
{
NullValueHandling = Newtonsoft.Json.NullValueHandling.Include
};
For some odd reason the Newtonsoft.Json.JsonFormatter ignore assigments to the propreties os SerializerSettings.
In order to make your setting work create new instance of .SerializerSettings as shown below:
config.Formatters.JsonFormatter.SerializerSettings = new Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializerSettings
{
DefaultValueHandling = Newtonsoft.Json.DefaultValueHandling.Include,
NullValueHandling = Newtonsoft.Json.NullValueHandling.Include,
};
I finally came across this http://forums.asp.net/t/1824580.aspx/1?Serializing+to+JSON+Nullable+Date+gets+ommitted+using+Json+NET+and+Web+API+despite+specifying+NullValueHandling which describes what I was experiencing as a bug in the beta that was fixed for the RTM.
Though I had installed VS2012 RTM, my project was still using all the nuget packages that the beta came with. So I nugetted (nugot?) updates for everything and all is now well (using #1 from my question). Though I'm feeling silly for having burned half a day.
When I saw this answer I was upset because I was already doing this and yet my problem still existed. My problem rooted back to the fact that my object implemented an interface that included a nullable type, so, I had a contract stating if you want to implement me you have to have one of these, and a serializer saying if one of those is null don't include it. BOOM!
A Windows Phone 7 app, it seems, has two places with version number - one in AssemblyInfo.cs (via AssemblyVersion/AssemblyFileVersion attributes), the other is WMAppManifest.xml. Those two seem uncorrelated - changing one does not affect the other. The Marketplace, it seems, uses the one from the manifest - can someone please confirm this?
The real question is - how do I retrieve the one from manifest programmatically to display on the About screen?
The WmAppManifest.xml number is in use. First two digits are relevant for Marketplace (it is checked when you do the update) next two are for your internal usage.
This is a regular XML file, open it as a XDocument and parse it. An example.
EDIT: the example is extraneous. For just the version, use:
string Version = XDocument.Load("WMAppManifest.xml")
.Root.Element("App").Attribute("Version").Value;
To get App Version from "WMappManifest.xml", this solution might be a bit more efficient than lukas solution:
For WP7:
var xmlReaderSettings = new XmlReaderSettings
{
XmlResolver = new XmlXapResolver()
};
using (var xmlReader = XmlReader.Create("WMAppManifest.xml", xmlReaderSettings))
{
xmlReader.ReadToDescendant("App");
return xmlReader.GetAttribute("Version");
}
For WP8:
using (var stream = new FileStream("WMAppManifest.xml", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
{
string appVersion = XElement.Load(stream).Element("App").Attribute("Version").Value;
}
