Homework Assignment #11

Most students completed this in class #10 on 4/23/2007.

copy this application to your E: drive
   the source of the copy is:
     u:\Moritsugu_steven\murach\Book Applications\Chapter_03\HalloweenStore
     on the e: drive, make the name of this directory to be hmwk11
   also copy this directory to your E: drive
     u:\Moritsugu_steven\murach\files

Start Visual Studio
 open a new web site
   template asp.net web site
    location: the HalloweenStore dir you just copied to your E: drive

It will automatically launch a wizard.
 go ahead and convert this from visual studio 2003 format
  to 2005 format.

In the solution explorer,
 right click on order.aspx
  set as start page
   dbl click: order.aspx
    click: design

Start without debugging
 should get an error because the pathnames are wrong.

Start with debugging
 this should bring up the line of code that needs to be changed.
  change the path to the e: file directory where you copied the files
   stop debugging

Start with debugging
 you will get an error
  change the pathname
   stop debugging

Start with debugging
 and not get an error.

Set a breakpoint at line 94 in order.aspx.vb (see p. 167)
   Me.LoadProductDropDownList()
    The line will be in brown when you successfully set the breakpoint.
 start without debugging
  change the category

If you don't see line numbers in your code,
 Tools
  Options
   General 
    turn on: line numbers
On some stations, you must turn them on this way:
 Tools
  Options
   Text Editor
    basic
     editor
      turn on: line numbers

Remove the breakpoint
 by clicking the brown bullet
  the line will still be yellow to indicate
   this is where the program is paused.
   and you should hit the breakpoint

using Data tip (p 169)
 still in breakpoint mode
  put your cursor on lblCheckout.text in line 99
   and it will show you the current contents of that control
  also do this on txtQuantity.Text in line 84

click "step into"  (p 171)
 you should go to line 53 where loadproductdropdownlist starts
  as you step through this routine (lines 57-61)

to change what line is executed next,
 put your cursor in that desired line,
  right click,
   set next statement

Debugging windows on bottom left (p 173)
  autos
  locals
     click the + sign to see the contents
  watch
  
Stop debugging
 add this code to btnAdd_click at line 67
            Dim dVal As Decimal
            dVal = 1
            dVal += 2
            dVal *= 3
            dVal \= 4
  (hint: copy this code from the web site to your program)
  set a breakpoint at the dim statement
   start debugging
    add dVal in your watch window
      by single click in an empty name field
Tell me what the \= operator does.
   ans: integer divide

   set Dval +=2 as the next statement to execute
    and then step into it.

In the watch window,
 change the value of dVal to 7
  (will show as 7D for decimal)
   then step into
    so you can see it uses the new value.

Dbl click on sID in that subroutine
 then drag sID to the watch window

if you cannot find a window
 debug
  windows
   then the desired window

Immediate window
?dVal
?dVal*6
?dVal^2
dVal=5*7
?ddlCategories.SelectedItem.Text
"Costumes"

show the instructor your watch and immediate windows
