Fall Development Startup

September 25, 2007 08:46 by sciske

Now that Fall is approaching it's time for the yearly ritual.  Development, Development, Development.  Typically I shut down my various development projects from May to October so I can enjoy the summer.  I have a few ideas of what I'm going to work on this season:

  • More Search engine research (continuation of last years project)
  • Guild Universe Development - We have some cool ideas and new features!!!
  • Mike McGlumphy and I will be teaming up again to do some new sites!
  • Site that contains all the links and articles to tools I use for development (thedotnettoolbox.com).
  • Contribute to an open source project, or start one.

 I'm always looking for something cool to work on, If you have any cool ideas please send me an email or leave a post!

SQL Server and CLR Assemblies C# - 6 Steps

August 28, 2007 13:39 by sciske

I had a chance to play around with this new feature in SQL 2005 the other day.  After reading a few articles here is the quick and dirty on how to implement.

A quick and dirty guide as to when is the best time to use:

http://www.developer.com/net/net/article.php/3528601

 How to add:

1) Create a Class project in Visual Studio

2) Create a new class and cut and paste the following code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;

namespace SampleCLR
{
    public class CLRTestClass
    {

        public static string Freak(string name)
        {
            return name.ToString() + " Is a FREAK!!!";

        }
    }
}

 

3) Compile.

4) Next

Register the assembly (in SQL 2005) by right clicking ‘Assemblies’ > ‘New Assembly’ under Programmability.

5) Run these scripts:

  SET ANSI_NULLS ON

GO

SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

GO

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.clrWhosFreak(  @name as nvarchar(200) ) RETURNS nvarchar(4000)  AS EXTERNAL NAME [SampleCLR].[SampleCLR.CLRTestClass].[Freak]  

sp_configure 'clr enabled', 1

go

reconfigure

go   

6) Then open a query window and run….  

select dbo.clrWhosFreak('Steve')
