C# - How to convert short array/list into byte array list

/* source with short values */
public List<short> Data = new List<short>();
...
short[] DataArray = Data.ToArray();
byte[] bufferBytes = new byte[ DataArray.Length * sizeof( short ) ];
Buffer.BlockCopy( DataArray, 0, bufferBytes, 0, bufferBytes.Length );
      
/* dest with byte values */      
Console.WriteLine( bufferBytes[0] + ", " + bufferBytes[1] );

If first short value in source list is 313, then first two values in bufferBytes after copy will be 57 (111001) a 1(1).

Simple add into datasource Init() method this code:

{
  super();    
           
  smmEncyclopediaItems_ds.query().dataSourceNo( 1 ).
    addSortField( fieldNum( smmEncyclopediaItems, ParentId ), SortOrder::Ascending );
  smmEncyclopediaItems_ds.query().dataSourceNo( 1 ).
    addSortField( fieldNum( smmEncyclopediaItems, order ), SortOrder::Ascending );
  smmEncyclopediaItems_ds.query().dataSourceNo( 1 ).
    addSortField( fieldNum( smmEncyclopediaItems, ItemName ), SortOrder::Ascending );        
}

C# - How to make question into active directory (AD, LDAP)

This example shows all Petr names contained in defined AD:

/* -- question */
DirectoryEntry de = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://OU=Comp Users,DC=EU,DC=company,DC=local");

/* -- define searcher */

DirectorySearcher ds = new DirectorySearcher(de);
ds.Filter = "(&(objectCategory=User)(objectClass=person)(givenname=*petr*))";
ds.Sort = new SortOption( "name", SortDirection.Ascending );
      
/* -- enumerate results */

SearchResultCollection results = ds.FindAll();
    
foreach ( SearchResult sr in results )
{
  string output = "";
  if ( sr.Properties["name"].Count > 0 ) 
  	output+= sr.Properties["name"][0].ToString();
  if ( sr.Properties["mail"].Count > 0 ) 
  	output+= " - " + sr.Properties["mail"][0].ToString();
  if ( sr.Properties["givenname"].Count > 0 ) 
  	output+= " - " + sr.Properties["givenname"][0].ToString();
  if ( sr.Properties["sn"].Count > 0 ) 
  	output+= " - " + sr.Properties["sn"][0].ToString();
  if ( sr.Properties["userPrincipalName"].Count > 0 ) 
  	output+= " - " + sr.Properties["userPrincipalName"][0].ToString();
  if ( sr.Properties["distinguishedName"].Count > 0 ) 
  	output+= " - " + sr.Properties["distinguishedName"][0].ToString();
        
  Console.WriteLine( output );
}

Output:

Bednaro, Petr - Petr.Bednar@company.com - Petr - Bednaro - bednarop@EU.company.local - 
CN=Bednaro\, Petr,OU=Czech Republic,OU=MKPE,OU=Comp Users,DC=EU,DC=company,DC=local

Cepka, Petr - Petr.Cepka@company.com - Petr - Cepka - cepkap@EU.company.local - 
CN=Cepka\, Petr,OU=Czech Republic,OU=BEIC,OU=Comp Users,DC=EU,DC=company,DC=local

Hartigo, Petr - Petr.Hartigo@company.com - Petr - Hartigo - hartigop@EU.company.local - 
CN=Hartigo\, Petr,OU=Czech Republic,OU=MKPE,OU=Comp Users,DC=EU,DC=company,DC=local

For DirectoryEntry is possible use Domain class:

DirectoryEntry de = domain.GetDirectoryEntry();      

If you want filter only for company BEIC, extent the filter in LDAP string:

DirectoryEntry de = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://OU=BEIC,OU=Comp Users,DC=EU,DC=company,DC=local");

SQL SERVER - How to load data from text file to table ?

If I have this table:

column_name     datatype   length
--------------- ---------- ------
id              varchar    7
description     nvarchar   60
last_index      int        NULL

..and this text file (first three rows only here):

-94544;ovládání;74
-00000;přídavné podstavce;15
-01881;hřídel, nástavec-spojovací(keiper);145

For import file data to this table use this statement:

delete dbo.drawing_index;

bulk insert dbo.drawing_index
from 'c:\cieb\import\drawing_index.txt'
with
(
	CODEPAGE = '65001',	-- UTF-8
	fieldterminator = ';',
	ROWTERMINATOR = '\n'

SQL SERVER - How to align string length to fixed size

With left() function is problem because ending spaces are lost. The solution is little trick with space() function.

select top 1 left( itemid, 25 ) + 'x' from inventitemprice
where
itemid = 'S-144-700-1006'

select top 1 left( itemid + space(100), 25 ) + 'x' from inventitemprice
where
itemid = 'S-144-700-1006'

Output:

--------------------------
S-144-700-1006x

(1 row(s) affected)


--------------------------
S-144-700-1006           x

SQL SERVER - How to make cumulative sum column

If you need cumulative sum if SQL select, you can use analytical function:

select  cast( mag as int ) as mag, count(*) as count,
sum ( count(*) ) over 
( order by cast( mag as int ) rows between unbounded preceding and current row ) 
as count_cumul
from dso
where
catalog = 'MYDSO'
group by cast( mag as int )
order by cast( mag as int )

Output:

mag         count       count_cumul
----------- ----------- -----------

The problem is little complicated, because access to string chars (through indexer) is only read-only.
One way is this:

ch[0] = char.ToUpper( row.Constellation[0] );
row.Constellation = new string( ch );
