I have installed alfresco community edition and want to develop a web application having database connectivity.
I have developed that application using jsp, servlets but want to develop the same application in alfresco.
Can anybody help where to start?

I have written a series of tutorials for people new to the Alfresco platform. I humbly submit those as a good place to start. There are also a number of books available on Alfresco.
It is a little hard to tell what you are trying to do from your brief description, but if you are trying to perform CRUD operations against the repository, I strongly suggest that you start with the Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) standard because that gives you a vendor-neutral, language independent way to talk to Alfresco or any other CMIS-compliant repository. My tutorials cover CMIS. You also might be interested in OpenCMIS, which includes a CMIS client API for Java.
That should get you started.

One of the more documented ways is to use Alfresco Web Services Client (I am using alfresco-web-service-client-3.4.d). Its a SOAP client generated from the WSDL provided by Alfreco.
There are good examples on the web. Google for Alfresco+Web+Services+Ingres.

If you have developed the application, then it will definitely help you know the flow and understanding of the application.

How to get an ASP.Net webapp to send data to a .Net desktop application and back [closed]

I am building a web application, where a function is needed where i could make the web app send a specific stream of data to the desktop application, which is running on the web server where the website is also running on.
In example: you push a button, a certain code (probably an integer/string code) gets sent to the desktop app which then does something.
Why it's needed/wanted: we currently use this desktop application to quickly launch specific gameservers, without having to fiddle around with a million different shortcuts to each server, for each different configuration.
Now we'd like to have a web application to work as a "middle man" so certain people could start gameservers without having to connect to the server through RDP.
Extra info: the desktop app is currently written in VB.Net, but rewriting it in C#.Net shouldn't be a big problem, if it's needed.
Does anyone of you guys know of any good tutorials or techniques to do this, or have a better solution for my needs?
How about setting up some code in your Web app to write data to a DB. You could then have your desktop app poll the database using a backgroundworker. If it finds new records then it can continue processing.

Consuming SCORM Content Package in LMS [closed]

I am completely new to SCORM and LMS. Basically for now, i just need to play the content package(downloaded from SCORM website) in my project and should be able to communicate with it. I have downloaded the open source LMS DotNetSCORM since i need this in .Net project but that doesn't seem to be working properly. I basically just need a very very simple example where LMS is able to lauch the Content and able to communicate with it through javascript. I have been through adlnet and SCORM websites but all examples just seem to provide Content package and nowhere i have found an LMS that communicates with it. Any help would be valuable for me to get started.
There are many other posts on StackOverflow asking the same question:

Unfortunately there is nothing simple about integrating SCORM into an LMS. If the course only uses the run-time (the JavaScript portion of SCORM), you can build a wrapper using Claude Ostyn's mini-runtime as a starting point (you'd need to build your own database and have the wrapper point to it).
But if you need to support multiple SCOs, the imsmanifest.xml file, and/or any sequencing or globals, you are embarking on a very long and difficult journey, especially if you're new to LMSs and SCORM.
My advice is to use someone else's product. Find an LMS that already provides SCORM support, or use a product like SCORM Cloud.

I am back to the job market next month. I am looking for an asp.net developer job. my current job does not use web service at all. last time, I am using it was 6,7 yrs ago.
If I need to pick it up, where to start. I searched on amazon.com, those .net web service books are really old, they were written in 2002. Does that mean web service is outdated, no one using it? is there a newer tech to replace it?
I did see a few newer books, but they are RESTful web service, whats the difference between web servie and RESTful web service.
please let me know what you are currently using and where should I start learning.
I learned web services by just tinkering around and looking at code examples.
Here are a few resources to get you started. If you have more questions, feel free. :)

WCF is the successor to web services. WCF contains a lot of bindings they are ways how you bind clients and server. You can use BasicHttpBinding if you need compatibility with clients that used ASP.NET Web services (ASMX-based services).
And now about books. I have found Programming WCF Services very useful. But it doesn't contain full information about security.

I was just wondering that what is the architecture of blogengine.net extension manager ?
How it loads the extension dynamically, how can I use same kind of functionality in my web applications ? so that every time i just create one class and corresponding page then just plug into the website.
Moreover I am interested to know the architecture as I didnt find any article or tutorial on it.
Any help would be appreciable.
You can see for yourself the code is on codeplex
You can read about what it is and how it works in the wiki docs.
Blogengine uses reflection to find and instantiate types attributed as "extension" and extensions itself use event listeners to communicate with core library. Extension manager is basically API and admin front-end for all extensions running on the blog.
Maybe the Plugin Pattern, have a look here how this works..

Scanning Through an ASP.NET Page [closed]

Can you scan directly from an asp.net page or even an embedded Silverlight object?
Silverlight doesn't have access to local devices like scanners. ASP.NET pages run in the web browser, so they also don't have access to scanners.
What are you trying to accomplish?
If user can use the 'Windows Fax and Scan' utility to scan the document and save it in the local hard disk, You may use Silverlight OpenFileDialog and read the document and save it on the server.
I've done exactly this in a few company website applications that I've worked on.
You have to use an ActiveX control to gain access from the client's browser to the configured TWAIN scanner on the machine. Once you have access you can then initiate the scanner via a webpage button, scan the document and use the newly delivered image object within your website code.
I'd recommend looking at an already developed activex component library to do this for you. An example being http://dynamic-web-twain.smartcode.com/info.html
The downside of this approach is obviously ActiveX only works with IE and requires the user to trust your website. If your user base is a trusted company or are internally based then this should not be a problem.
