Why do we need [Flags]

Found it quiet not quite:) interesting so here i go
System.FlagsAttribute

[Flags]
enum StateWithFlags
{
None = 0,
Read = 1,
Write = 2,
Delete = 4
}

enum StateWithNoFlags
{
None = 0,
Read = 1,
Write = 2,
Delete = 4
}

for (int enumValue = 0; enumValue <= 8; enumValue++)
Console.WriteLine("StateWithFlags: " + enumValue.ToString() + " " + ((StateWithFlags)enumValue).ToString());
/*
this returns:(2=1 in case of 3 as 3 is not defined similarly for 5=4+1)
StateWithFlags: 0 None
StateWithFlags: 1 Read
StateWithFlags: 2 Write
StateWithFlags: 3 Read, Write
StateWithFlags: 4 Delete
StateWithFlags: 5 Read, Delete
StateWithFlags: 6 Write, Delete
StateWithFlags: 7 Read, Write, Delete
StateWithFlags: 8 8
*/


for (int enumValue = 0; enumValue <= 4; enumValue++)
Console.WriteLine("StateWithNoFlags: " + enumValue.ToString() + " " + ((StateWithNoFlags)enumValue).ToString());
/*
this returns:
0 None
1 Read
2 Write
3 3
4 Delete
*/

Hope this is self explanatory :)

RS 6230 for Who you are

Sum that people pay at times to discuss bullshit....

"Kya hai" "Kyun hai" "Main kaun hoon" "Kyun Hoon" Sounds Like Chuck this guy out...He is asa/ramdev extra types that are seen on pragya tv....

A simple question i am trying to evaluate from past (after 8th standard there is a long story behind this period you would need to be 8 10 pegs down with me before i start this chapter enough...focus after closing bracket now) 14 years ....didnt get an answer though. Does anyone has that answer go ahead and i ask you yes you to provide me and help me in every possible way you can (your motive could be being a human being)all answers will lead me to somewhere.......

An incident today :-So there was a small discussion within a group of intellectually percepted and knowledgeably masturbated(original term is intellectual masturbation hats off) people and the crux is no one is sure what it is why it is types but yes i am sure thats an intriguing question which everyone must evaluate and try to answer.It will surely help him(I am a male chauvinist) in leading his life in a meaningful manner....
I don't want to say-utter what i have percepted or learned (a relatively permanent change in behavior is learning) so far....
Just a thought may be but i assume its intriguing for sure i am still struggling...

How to insert ' character in sql server

Heard Many done Many times but couldn't find a better google link
so posting it here for my own use or someone elses may be :)

Had a requirement to insert special characters ' in nvarchar
Now the data to be inserted is
Integrated Security=SSPI;Pooling='true';Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=xyz;Data Source=LocalHost;Min Pool Size=5

we have a table whose value coulmn(Value column is of nvarchar(1024) type) needs to be inserted with this data(note the data to be inserted carries a 'true' value also)
so the trick is here-

update mytable set
value= 'Integrated Security=SSPI;Pooling=''true'';Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=sleepme;Data Source=LocalHost;Min Pool Size=5' where idname='DataLocation'

# Drived me Crazy............(Unable to Open CHM files)

This one is another learning for me....

I had a folder(Kyun Banaya tha mainey grrrrr) in my Lappy(Vista 64 Bit) named C# Tutorials and under that i had some great stuff in the form of *.chm files...To My surprise i was not able to view those files(I knw...I knw Unblock feature).....

Anyway now its ok :)

Focusing on Problems and Focusing on Solutions

Difference between Focusing on Problems and Focusing on Solutions

Case 1

When NASA began the launch of astronauts into space, they found out
that the pens wouldn't work at zero gravity (ink won't flow down to the
writing surface). To solve this problem, it took them one decade and $12 million. They developed a pen that worked at zero gravity, upside down, underwater, in practically any surface including crystal and in a temperature range from below freezing to over 300 degrees C.
And what did the Russians do...?? They used a pencil.


Case 2

One of the most memorable case studies on Japanese management was the
case of the empty soapbox, which happened in one of Japan's biggest
cosmetics companies. The company received a complaint that a consumer had bought a soapbox that was empty. Immediately the authorities isolated the
problem to the assembly! line, which transported all the packaged boxes of
soap to the delivery department. For some reason, one soapbox went through
the assembly line empty. Management asked its engineers to solve the
problem. Post-haste, the engineers worked hard to devise an X-ray machine with high-resolution monitors manned by two people to watch all the
soapboxes that passed through the line to make sure they were not empty. No
doubt, they worked hard and they worked fast but they spent a whoopee amount to do so. But when a rank-and-file employee in a small company was posed with the same problem, he did not get into complications of X-rays, etc., but instead came out with another solution. He bought a strong industrial
electric fan and pointed it at the assembly line. He switched the fan
on, and as each soapbox passed the fan, it simply blew the empty boxes out
of the line.


Moral : Always look for simple solutions .
Devise the simplest possible solution that solves the problems

Stephen Covey 90/10 Principle

Author: Stephen Covey

Discover the 90/10 Principle.It will change your life (at least the way you react to situations).

What is this principle? 10% of life is made up of what happens to you. 90% of life is decided by how you react.

What does this mean? We really have no control over 10% of what happens to us.

We cannot stop the car from breaking down. The plane will be late arriving, which throws our whole schedule off. A driver may cut us off in traffic.We have no control over this 10%. The other 90% is different. You determine the other 90%. How? ……….By your reaction.

You cannot control a red light. but you can control your reaction. Don't let people fool you; YOU can control how you react.

Let's use an example.
You are eating breakfast with your family. Your daughter knocks over a cup of coffee onto your business shirt. You have no control over what just happened.
What happens next will be determined by how you react.
You curse.
You harshly scold your daughter for knocking the cup over. She breaks down in tears. After scolding her, you turn to your spouse and criticize her for placing the cup too close to the edge of the table. A short verbal battle follows. You storm upstairs and change your shirt. Back downstairs, you find your daughter has been too busy crying to finish breakfast and get ready for school. She misses the bus.
Your spouse must leave immediately for work. You rush to the car and drive your daughter to school. Because you are late, you drive 40 miles an hour in a 30 mph speed limit.
After a 15-minute delay and throwing $60 traffic fine away, you arrive at school. Your daughter runs into the building without saying goodbye. After arriving at the office 20 minutes late, you find you forgot your briefcase. Your day has started terrible. As it continues, it seems to get worse and worse. You look forward to coming home.
When you arrive home, you find small wedge in your relationship with your spouse and daughter.
Why? …. Because of how you reacted in the morning.
Why did you have a bad day?
A) Did the coffee cause it?
B) Did your daughter cause it?
C) Did the policeman cause it?
D) Did you cause it?
The answer is “D".
You had no control over what happened with the coffee. How you reacted in those 5 seconds is what caused your bad day.
Here is what could have and should have happened.
Coffee splashes over you. Your daughter is about to cry. You gently say, "Its ok honey, you just need to be more careful next time". Grabbing a towel you rush upstairs. After grabbing a new shirt and your briefcase, you come back down in time to look through the window and see your child getting on the bus. She turns and waves. You arrive 5 minutes early and cheerfully greet the staff. Your boss comments on how good the day you are having.
Notice the difference?
Two different scenarios. Both started the same. Both ended different.
Why?
Because of how you REACTED.
You really do not have any control over 10% of what happens. The other 90% was determined by your reaction.
Here are some ways to apply the 90/10 principle. If someone says something negative about you, don't be a sponge. Let the attack roll off like water on glass. You don't have to let the negative comment affect you!
React properly and it will not ruin your day. A wrong reaction could result in losing a friend, being fired, getting stressed out etc.
How do you react if someone cuts you off in traffic? Do you lose your temper? Pound on the steering wheel? A friend of mine had the steering wheel fall off) Do you curse? Does your blood pressure skyrocket? Do you try and bump them?
WHO CARES if you arrive ten seconds later at work? Why let the cars ruin your drive?
Remember the 90/10 principle, and do not worry about it.
You are told you lost your job.
Why lose sleep and get irritated? It will work out. Use your worrying energy and time into finding another job.
The plane is late; it is going to mangle your schedule for the day. Why take outpour frustration on the flight attendant? She has no control over what is going on.
Use your time to study, get to know the other passenger. Why get stressed out? It will just make things worse.
Now you know the 90-10 principle. Apply it and you will be amazed at the results. You will lose nothing if you try it. The 90-10 principle is incredible. Very few know and apply this principle.
The result?
Millions of people are suffering from undeserved stress, trials, problems and heartache. We all must understand and apply the 90/10 principle.
It CAN change your life!!!
