Check the current Identity and Reset the Identity

Code Snippet:



// Check the current identity of the table
SELECT IDENT_CURRENT('tablename') 


 //Reset the identity to next incremental value
DBCC CHECKIDENT ('tablename', RESEED, 0)




When RESEED is used then the numbervalue in third argument of the CHECKIDENT is set as current identity for the table. Here in this case RESEED to 0 means 



Calling a WebMethod from User control in ASP.NET

This is a framework limitation, we cannot call the webmethod in the code behind file of user control from ascx file.

However try calling the webmethod in aspx code behind file from the ascx file. This will work

Types of Inheritance in c#

Single Inheritance - Derived class is created from a single base class. SUPPORTED

Multi-level inheritance - Derived class is created from another derived class. SUPPORTED

Multiple inheritance - A derived class is created from more than one base class. NOT SUPPORTED

Multipath inheritance - In this inheritance, a derived class is created from multiple derived classes and each of these derived classes have same base class. NOT SUPPORTED

Hierarchial inheritance - In this inheritance, more than one derived classes are created from a single base. SUPPORTED

Hybrid inheritance - This is combination of more than one inheritance. So depending on type of combination we can say SUPPORTEDor NOT SUPPORTED

SELECT COUNT(ColumnA) AS Count_Headertext,
ColumnB AS ColumnB_Headertext
FROM Tablename
GROUP BY ColumnB

Field and Property in C#

Object orientated programming principles say that the internal workings of a class should be hidden from the outside world. If you expose a field you're in essence exposing the internal implementation of the class. So we wrap the field using the property to hide the internal working of the class.

We can see that in the above code section we define property as public and field as private, so user can only access the property but internally we are using the field, such that provides a level of abstraction and hides the field from user access.

Another  important difference is that interfaces can have properties but not fields.

Using property we can throw an event but this is not possible in field.

A private field that stores the data exposed by a public property is called a backing store or backing field.

Code Snippet:

        public class Career
        {
            // field
            private int _path; 

            // Path is Property
            public int Path
            {
                get
                {
                    return _path;
                }
                set
                {
                    _path = value;
                }
            }
        }
