That won't help much; database-servers are optimized to return data as fast as possible from their datastore. You'd still have the same amount of network-traffic, and the extra caching-application might consume CPU-time that the database-server wants, moving the delay from one application to another.
Caching on the client side will remove the need to transport the data over the network and moves some work from the server to the local machine. That's the way to go, unless you have a server that never runs into capacity-problems. A simple way to achieve this is to synchronize the database from the server with a local copy. I'd only sync the readonly data; lookuplists do better when local, especially if required often.
Or, if you have those in a real List, serialize them after retrieving them once, save it locally, and deserialize from the local path the next time your app starts.

Let me get this right - you have a WinForms/WPF application that connects to a server to retrieve data and manipulate it. You want to retrieve information from the server and use it locally, but you think you will get better performance if you retrieve it from a cache at the server end. Have I understood your requirements properly?
What I am unclear about here, is whether the remote machine is merely a database server, or whether it has web services that serve up the data. The client side architecture is greatly affected by this fact.
If the remote PC is merely a database, then you should just retrieve the data and do any caching locally. It is possible that you are issuing slowdown problems because you are trying to run an enterprise database on a simple PC, and have other issues because of that design.
If the remote PC is a web service (whether or not served up by WCF), then it could make sense to cache the data at the server side.
Unfortunately, we cannot offer any more detailed help because you have not offered sufficient detail as to what your architecture actually is.

Yes the remote PC is a webservice(serve up the data) ,and the clients are consuming the webservice..
and as u said(caching on server) if this is the case please let me know how to cache on the server..(in webservice)

You have hosted this in a web server then? If so, you simply need to use a pattern like this:
private MyData GetData()
{
HttpCache myCache = HttpContext.Current.Cache;
MyData data = myCache["MyData"];
if (data == null) return GetDataAndStoreInCache();
return data;
}
private MyData GetAndStoreInCache()
{
MyData data = RetrieveDataHere();
HttpContext.Current.Cache.Insert("MyData", data, null, DateTime.Now.AddHours(6), TimeSpan.Zero);
return data;
}

Thanks for ur reply...
i need to use this code snippet in webservice code right...?
using HttpContext.Current.Cache instead of HttpRuntime.cache or Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.cache is better?
Correct me if im wrong..pls let me know which is better to use..

You would be OK using HttpRuntime.Cache. Basically, HttpContext.Current.Cache is a version of HttpRuntime.Cache. In fact, all that HttpContext.Current.Cache really does is pass the request onto HttpRuntime.Cache (the big difference being that HttpRuntime.Cache is available for all cases, so you can even use it in a console application if you want).
My sample wasn't meant to be used literally, rather it was to demonstrate some possible techniques. As it stands, it's not a totally robust situation as you could enter a situation where between the time of the lookup and the insert into the cache, another process inserts the data into the cache. If you code this robustly, you need to take this into account.

It depends on what the problem is. On a previous job, I had a number of clients (five or so, but could be more) that had to access the same data repeatedly (every minute or so) as they monitored the status of the running system. Because the data required a fair bit of calculation and aggregation I chose to have a Windows Service produce an XML file with the results that the clients could then download at their leisure.
The Service ran on a fifteen-second cycle and produced one of ten files (e.g. SystemStatus.0.xml -- SystemStatus.9.xml) and when it was done it wrote the name of the latest file to the database for the clients to read.

First step is to actually determine what is causing the slow down.
Attempting to guess bottlenecks is unlikely to be successful.
Did you actually measure the time it took for various parts of your application and server?

I'm coding up a small script to list users' (all users in our group) permission on each TFS project. I relied on "GetEffectivePermissions" http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.teamfoundation.versioncontrol.client.versioncontrolserver.geteffectivepermissions(v=vs.90).aspx
However, after research a little I found out that this API can only be called with "userName" = $YOURSELF$
Any attempt to call "GetEffectivePermission" would result in
TF14014: Cannot query effective item or global permissions for other users.
Any suggestion on how to get around this??

I have a Microsoft Access 2007 database which stores all the necessary data for my application. The person who designed the database, my plant's manager, mentioned in the past (and is still considering) the ability to select multiple "repair codes" for each record. I know that with Access you can create a field which allows multiple values.
The table containing repair codes has the following fields:
ID (unique ID; auto-generated/incremented)
Code (e.g. "Replaced Front Panel")
Cost (currently uses a default value; not significant here)
In the "Repairs" table there is a field which is linked to the Repair Codes table, called "Repair Code." My manager would like the ability to select more than one code from the "Repair Codes" table, in the respective field inside the "Repairs" table.
How would I go about reading and writing multiple values for the field when dealing with records in the "Repairs" table?
I apologize if I did not elaborate well. :-P
Thanks,
Matt U.
------------- EDIT -------------
I forgot to mention that I have played around with the multiple values in Access itself. I know that when you select multiple values, the field's value will display (in Access) as "1, 3, 8" and so forth (or whichever column you tell it to show). Is there anything special I need to do in order to read each value? I can piece together how to ADD multiple values if I know how to SELECT them.

1. Not really a C# question.
2. This is a many-to-many join situation (N:N), so a bridge table would help...
In the example below, Mike's repair job (#1) included repair codes 1 and 2 (that association is saved in the REPAIR_TO_CODE table). Jane only involved repair code 2, and Bob only repair code 1.
Make sense..?
CODE
---------
ID Code Cost
1 Replaced something $1.00
2 Adjusted something $2.00
REPAIR
---------
ID Customer (Other Fields...)
1 Mike
2 Jane
3 Bob
REPAIR_TO_CODE
----------------
Repair_FK Code_FK
1 1
1 2
2 2
3 1

Thanks much for the informative reply. As I am quite new to SQL (aside from SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE) I will look into this more. I recently started learning a lot about different SQL commands at W3C. JOIN statements are something I have been taking a lot of interest in so this may be a good time to learn hands-on. 
Like I said, we are in no rush to use multiple values. It may very well never get to that point anyhow. But I would like to know where to start in case it comes down to it. And by the looks of it, I can almost guarantee my manager will NOT want to fool with it. He is not particularly fond of modifying things to this extent when it is not absolutely necessary. He just likes to daydream about it, haha.
Thanks again, Timothy.

Search for normalization, that will help you.
Alternatively you could choose a delimeter like a pipe ("|") and seperate the codes with the delimeter in the one field. (eg: code1|code7|code23) However, I would NOT recommend this, but it could be you encounter this device sooner or later. A bridge table is the way to go.

Look into Master/Detail forms, Matt. You can create a table for RepairEvents as a lookup source, perhaps, and then add a table that describes multiple repair codes for a single event with the RepairEvent ID as a foreign key. It's not really a major change, which should make your manager happy. Keep in mind, though, that if you have a busy database, you're going to quickly run into problems using Access. If you have more than about 5 people who need to use your database, or the .mdb file grows to about 1 GB in size, it's going to blow up on you. You really should start thinking about migrating to SQL Server; the Express version is free, handles multiple users better, and extends your limit to about 10 GB.
I'm working on several such applications in my "free" time, to manage electrical substation inspections, sewer lift station repairs, and water system events, so I know what you're going through. It would be very convenient if each event resulted in just one repair, but that rarely occurs in the real world. Best of luck to you! And when you have it resolved, publish your solution as an article and show the rest of us how you solved the problem.

How we can concatenate the word document, I explain, i would make a single document of 1000 pages (each document is on one page) and then save only a single document instead of 1000, thank you much.
i use this to crate one document :
String[] tbStr2 = s.Split(new Char[] { ';' });
string nb = tbStr2[0];
Object oMissing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
Object oTrue = true;
Object oFalse = false;
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application oWord = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application();
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document oWordDoc = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document();
oWord.Visible = true;
oWord.Visible = false;
Object oTemplatePath = modelee;
oWordDoc = oWord.Documents.Add(ref oTemplatePath, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing);
bool sympb = false; bool E = false; bool n = false; bool p = false; bool r = false;
foreach (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Range range in oWordDoc.Words)
{if (range.Text.Trim().Contains("$"))
{ int pos = range.Text.Trim().IndexOf("$");
string str = range.Text.Trim().Replace("$", "");
range.Text = str;} }
foreach (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Range range in oWordDoc.Words)
{if (range.Text.Trim().Contains("$$"))
{ int pos = range.Text.Trim().IndexOf("$$");
string str = range.Text.Trim().Replace("$$", "");
range.Text = str;} }
Object oSaveAsFile ="./1.doc";
oWordDoc.SaveAs(ref oSaveAsFile, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing,
ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing,
ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing,
ref oMissing, ref oMissing);
oWordDoc.Close(ref oFalse, ref oMissing, ref oMissing);
oWord.Quit(ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing);

Yes, should be possible. What are you using to "read" the document?

A tip you will often see is to record a macro for the operation you want to perform. In your case just find out what code is generated for the Insert File operation.
In Word 2002 the macro code is
Sub Macro1()
Selection.InsertFile FileName:="xxxxx.doc", Range:="", ConfirmConversions:= False, Link:=False, Attachment:=False
End Sub
From the MS Word Visual Basic reference we can get the InsertFile method signature and remove the named arguments to give the conventional method call
Selection.InsertFile("xxxx.doc", "", False, False, False)
which can be easily translated into C#.

Who in their right mind would want to open a 1,000 page document in Word?? That'll take, what, a few hours to do?
|
|
|
|

No, only a few seconds if not bloated with a shed load of pictures. E.g. the C# Specification v3.0 is 519 pages and takes about 3 seconds to open over here in the UK.

Hi,
I have a problem in deserializing the xml which is coming from Java side in soap form.
Here is my code..
var responseText = res.XmlDocument.GetElementsByTagName("soap:Body").Item(0).InnerXml;
var memoryStream = new MemoryStream(Encoding.Default.GetBytes(responseText));
var ClsEmpResponse = (Request.ClsEmp.EmpResponse)xmlSerializer.Deserialize(memoryStream);
_oLog.LogStackTrace("*************DAE VIEW REQUEST*************");
_oLog.LogStackTrace(responseText.ToString());
return ClsEmpResponse;
here in this code, am getting the response as it is saved in database(for ex, it contain Nested Condition:3) in responseText.
but after i pass it to the memory stream, it is showing that it contain only 1 condition in the loop in ClsEmpResponse.
ClsEmp is the class contain in Request folder in my application, which is having some fields, where i read and write the data into/from that field.
so can u tell me what is d problem here..
Why it is not taking the exact value which is coming in responseText.
why its not reading the same xml format which is in
|

I suspect that it is because you haven't told it what the soap: prefix means.
Here's what I had to do to use the xi: prefix:
System.Xml.XmlNamespaceManager nsm =
new System.Xml.XmlNamespaceManager ( Document.NameTable ) ;
nsm.AddNamespace ( "xi" , "http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" ) ;
System.Xml.XmlNode nod ;
while ( ( nod = Document.SelectSingleNode ( "//xi:include" , nsm ) ) != null )
Try something like that.
