How to Implement Custom Membership in Asp.Net MVC

In Asp.Net MVC, default membership works with pre-defined/specified data source where programmer don’t worry about anything related to authentication. To implement authentication with desired data source, programmer must implement custom membership as explained in the article. Using custom membership, programmer can easily authenticate user’s visit through self-written code.

This article will describe some simple steps to complete the task:

• Create a class named "Custom_Membership" in Models folder in your MVC application.
• Inherit this from MembershipProvider class exists in “System.Web.Security” namespace.
• Right click on MembershipProvider and select on “Implement Abstract Class”, it will all the override function need to be implement by us.
• Just implement ValidateUser() method and replace that function with the following code:
  
  public override bool ValidateUser(string username, string password)
  {
  if (username == "admin" && password == "password")
  {
  return true;
  }
  return false;
  }

• Go to AccountController >> Login action and change the login functionality as:
  
  public ActionResult Login(LoginModel model, string returnUrl)
  {
  if (ModelState.IsValid && Membership.ValidateUser(model.UserName, model.Password))
  {
  FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(model.UserName, model.RememberMe);
  return RedirectToLocal(returnUrl);
  }
  ModelState.AddModelError("", "The user name or password provided is incorrect.");
  return View(model);
  }

• Open web.config file of the root and add following in system.web tag
  
  <membership defaultProvider="Custom_Membership">
    <providers>
  <clear/>
  <add name="Custom_Membership"
  type="CustomMembershipP.Models.Custom_Membership"/>
    </providers>
  </membership>

Run the MVC application and open Login page, it provide an error related to membership, to resolve through error just delete “[InitializeSimpleMembership]” attribute from AccountController.

Again run the application and enter username and password as provided above in ValidateUser() function. It will login successfully, now you can override any of the function in your custom membership class.

How to change text color from ARGB value in ASP.NET

ARGB( ) takes four integer input parameter as a argument. Method name explain all things automatically. This name contain four color code, first "A" for Alpha which take 0-255 integer value. Similarly "R" for RED , "G" for Green and "B" for blue. Now lets take an simple example of ARGB( ) method.

<form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
    
        Enter Alpha Color code :
        <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Width="190px"></asp:TextBox>

        <br />
        <br />
        <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" OnClick="Button1_Click" Text="Click to change " Width="95px" />
        <br />
    
    </div>
        <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Font-Size="20pt" Text="Result Label "></asp:Label>
    </form>

CodeBehind Code

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
       
        int alpha = int.Parse (TextBox1.Text);
        int red = int.Parse (TextBox2.Text);
        int green = int.Parse (TextBox3.Text);
        int blue =int.Parse ( TextBox4.Text);
        Label1.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(alpha, red, green, blue);

        cmd.Connection = con;
        DataSet ds = new DataSet();
        SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd);
        da.Fill(ds);
        GridView2.DataSource = ds;
        GridView2.DataBind();

Clock in windows phone 8

In this article,  i will use  DispatcherTimer class for creating timer control. Using interval property of this class, i will set the increment counter. After set the interval you can call tick event of this class. On tick event you can take current date and time. .

To create a new app in windows phone 8, the steps are listed below:

Create a new project by going through File | New Project | Windows Phone Application - Visual C#. Give a desired project name( World Clock is my app name).

From Solution Explorer, open MainPage.xaml file. (If Solution Explorer window is currently not opened then open it via View>>Other Windows>>Solution Explorer).

Inside Control Panel code fragment, add following code to create world clock app.

Source code (MainPage.xaml)

 <TextBlock HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="10,10,0,0" TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="436" Height="63" x:Name="label1" FontSize="30" Grid.ColumnSpan="2"/>

Code behind 

   DispatcherTimer t1 = new DispatcherTimer();

    t1.Interval = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1);

            t1.Tick += OnTick;

            t1.Start();

  void OnTick(Object sender, EventArgs args)

        {

            label1.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString();

        }
