Apologies to those who tried my grid.history demo page Friday. In the course of updating the integration to support jqGrid 3.7.2 and simultaneously learning GitHub’s pages feature, I killed the demo. It’s fixed now, and I’ve added the ability to run the unit tests directly from that site, making it easier for me to test [...]
Tagged GitHub, Java, javascript, jqGrid, jQuery BBQI recently finished an integration between the open source jqGrid and jQuery BBQ libraries. I have released my integration as open source, as well. As with both projects, it is dual-licensed under the MIT and GPL licenses.
jqGrid is a JavaScript grid component with many useful features. I have previously explained how to use it with [...]
Here’s some code I wrote:
public class MyBaseController : Controller
{
// …
public new ISession Session { get; private set; }
// ….
}
ISession is an interface type I wrote which exposes everything I store in the session at runtime. I use constructor injection to assign this to [...]

As a significant percentage of the book seems to be word for word identical to text in Getting Real, I think it’s more of a "remix." Getting Real [...]
Tagged 37 Signals, book review, business, DHH, Jason Fried, ReworkLast Friday, I attended the Stir Trek conference here in Columbus. The day got off to an inauspicious start when I turned on my car. There was a high screaming noise, and acrid black smoke poured out from the engine. I opened the hood, pulled out a burning air-conditioner drive belt, and threw it into [...]
Tagged conference, html, javascript, kanban, mobile, stirtrek, uxA couple of weeks ago, I wrote What Is Homomorphic Encryption, and Why Should I Care? In that post, I promised to share my C# implementation of the algorithm from Craig Gentry’s CACM article. Before I can do that, though, I need to explain some of the math involved.
Perhaps surprisingly, it’s actually very simple. (I [...]
One very popular option for implementing user security in ASP.NET is to use Forms Authentication with the SQL Server membership provider. This provider creates several database tables to store user-related information, as well as a number stored procedures.
From time to time, a developer will attempt to add the ASP.NET Membership/Forms Authentication tables to their Entity [...]
Version 3.5.2 of jqGrid included an important new feature:
Now when autoencode is set to true we encode the data coming from server and not only when we post it (secutity fix)
Prior to this, you were required to encode the data yourself.
Now personally, I think that should be the default. But it would have been a [...]
In this post I will demonstrate that use of the join keyword in LINQ to SQL and LINQ to Entities is nearly always wrong. LINQ queries which you write with the join keyword are harder to read and write than queries you write using associations, and they require knowledge of database metadata which is not [...]
Tagged entity framework, linq, linq to sqlIn this post, I will demonstrate how to map entity models to views in an ASP.NET MVC application without worrying about implementation details like eager loading, lazy loading, or having to manually optimize SQL for the task at hand. I will argue that expressing the relationship between an entity model in the presentation model in [...]
