There is lots of exception or error handling in .NET. But if you want to create a custom error exception for your particular code then you can create your own error handling. We need to create a custom exception in our business layer so that the customer can’t use the same code in other domain. He can only use that code in particular domain or activation key. You can build you own login to make this work with you activation key. I just show how can you restricted them to you other domain.

‘HttpUtility’ does not exist in the current context

by Arifur Rahman on February 6, 2011 in error with No comments

Last couple days working I developed a social networking share control for asp.net

http://www.smartwebsource.info/smartshare/Default.aspx

Where i use BitlyApi to shorten my url to send twitter.
There i use BitlyApi class in my App_Code folder . As it is web project so HttpUtility is found from System.Web.dll.
I try to make my SmartSocialShare class library to a dll so i make a new class library .
And paste all my Class file from my App_Code folder in the new Class library project . When i try to build the dll it show this error.

‘HttpUtility’ does not exist in the current context

Then i add System.Web.dll as a reference in my class library then it make my dll without error.
Hopes this will help you to solve this error.

Code behind


using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.IO;

public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page 
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

    }
    protected void sendq_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
   

        string filename = "";
     
        String rootPath = "";
        if (fuAttachment.HasFile)
        {
            string dirUrl = Path.Combine(Request.PhysicalApplicationPath, "attachment/");



            filename = fuAttachment.PostedFile.FileName;
            string fullUploadPath = Path.Combine(dirUrl, fuAttachment.PostedFile.FileName);

            fuAttachment.PostedFile.SaveAs(fullUploadPath);

           
            rootPath = Server.MapPath("~/attachment/" + filename);

        }


        
        var subject = _txtSubject.Text;
        var from = _txtEmail.Text;
     
        var to = "m_arifdu@yahoo.com";
        var questoin = _txtQuestion.Text;
        var body = string.Format("A new file send with attachment");


        Mailer.Send(from, to, subject, body, true, rootPath);

        lblMessage.Text = "Mail send with attachment";

       
    }
}

In our web.config file we con fig our mail credential. As we send mail with gmail so we put here gmail settings.
To send mail with gmail please enable ssl from our mailer class. As google need ssl to send mail. Other wise you will get error.

  <system.net>
    <mailSettings>
      <smtp>
        <network port="587" host="smtp.gmail.com" userName="username" password="password"/>
      </smtp>
    </mailSettings>

Get URL of ASP.Net Page

by Arifur Rahman on January 23, 2011 in Tips with 1 Comment

Some time we need to get the current page location . Today i will show how to do that.

This function can be used to retrieve the current page’s name, i.e default.aspx, hello.aspx or whatever.

 
public string GetCurrentPagename()
{

      string sPath = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.AbsolutePath;
System.IO.FileInfo oInfo = new System.IO.FileInfo(sPath);    
string sRet = oInfo.Name;  
return  sRet ;
}

If you want to need other things to retrive from url like bellow image then just call that.
