It destroys time!If you are connecting to an Oracle database :In your query, get rid of the quotes for the parameter names. Next, replace the '@' with a ':' and preview the report. It should work.The reason is that Oracle does not understand that parameters begin with '@' . For Oracle, parameters are prepended with a ':' while SSRS understands it the other way round.So when you try and run the

My last two days in the Laboratory have been about tweaking Javascript so that Internet Explorer understands it. When web programming, rest assured that IE will behave like a juvenile delinquent and demand special treatment; and you my dear, will have to succumb.But lets not get you more wound up than you already are - with the world of blogs and wikis, you will find your way :)Here is some of

In using HMP earlier, i had discovered that putting the requirestatement before the Rails Initializer block gives you a nil error whichis fixed if you shift the require beneath the Rails Initializer block. Then, doing a>ruby script/generate tagging [model names...]fires a Couldn't find 'tagging' generator. So i shifted it back up.Next I wanted to use the Tagging functionality of HMP. I

How do you control how much data you want to be loaded from databasewhen you have your objects tied up with Rails Associations? For Instance, in the Social Networking Context, I need to show just a few of aperson's friends on his home page and provide a see all link whichtakes him to a page which then shows all, possibly with pagination.Eager Loading :http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/

This is a good plugin, with some not so good docs on the Rails wiki for a total newbie. But i have a some good links which i will put with this post.The basic use of HMP is to model the relationship of a particular entity with a bunch of other entities which are not of the same type. Say you want to Model the relation of a Person having many Houses, Cars and Offices. The number of associations

This link was forwarded to me. It contains a simple solution to a situation that can get very hazardous to your site..It is very tempting to use link_to in Rails to do something like a delete..I've used link_to_remote very so often to do an Ajax Delete...But what if you have crawlers consuming links in your site, this could really kill you!! So the solution here is to use button_to and not

Due to deadline pressures i hadn't gotten down to formally installing a full fledged Rails IDE until now. I'd just been using Aptana Studio with the Ruby Plugin using the download available here: http://update.aptana.com/update/rdt/3.2/But its more than simple to get RadRails up n running. Visit http://update.aptana.com/install/rails/3.2/ and follow the Installation procedure. Not hard. But if

Yes its been long. Very long.I've been crawling the Web for most of my waking hours in the past month for stuff on Ruby on Rails. Its funny how people come up with cheesy yet funny titles for their articles using the word 'Rails', and I'm just yet one more.. So without further ado, presenting (ah... Drumroll puhlease!)

So here i was, out of nowhere in particular writing a C program to do something. It would be compiled and run on a Linux Box.My very first run gave me a Segmentation Fault.

Well firstly, clear your thoughts of all notions of 'Scrapbooks' in the context of Orkut since this scrapbook, is not an evil one.When writing Java Code one oft needs to execute a small code snippet, just to be sure of what it does so that it doesn't ruin the bigger picture. Well i used to write tiny classes for such things until i stumbled upon Eclipse's scrapbook. (Actually received via a well

I recently switched to using Mozilla Thunderbird, and it was for the better. Well my reason was that my system would become insanely sluggish if i had Outlook, Eclipse, Firefox and Media Player going.And this is the minimal set of things i need running when i work. Yes i know that maybe ...just maybe using IE and not Firefox would save me some CPU cycles but the fact remains that IE is inferior

Assigning a handler to window.load directly is not such a great idea, since it erases the callbacks that may have been assigned earlier.I came across an alternative by Peter-Paul Koch hereThis small snippet of Javascript executes onload events in such a way that previous events are not lost, by checking if there are any, and executing them before executing the one in question.Powered by

This won't be a very long one...What if you want to keep the look and feel of your webpages constant, yet let the data they display, dynamic in nature?To make it clearer, imagine this:You have a Login Page. The end user Logs in (validation etc is done... skipping that part) and then he is redirected to a page that greets him ( yes the standard "Hello World" !).How would this happen in a

Before going to Hibernate, i need to brief you on ORM although i'm sure you already have a good idea.. so here goes --Object Relational Mapping is a programming technique for converting between data in the form of Objects in Object Oriented programming languages to relational database entities. The above definition, is just …well for the sake of giving a definition, and the example below will

Asynchronous Javascript and XML, urf Ajax, was born from the frustration of -Waiting!When you're viewing a page on your favourite site, and then you decide to login what happens? You enter your username and password, click 'Login', and then.... Wait. You need to wait for the page to reload, which means you are actually waiting for the client-server-client roundtrip to happen.With Ajax,

Hi,I've decided to have this blog to write about technology, well actually more about programming languages that intrigue me.This essentially to keep a tab of things as they grow and change, and help me remember them by as new stuff evolves. Plus enrich the whole experience by virtue of comments that i hope to recieve!I don't know how often i'll be posting, but i will really try to not keep long
