Q:

You develop an enterprise application, called XYZApplication that includes a Windows Form presentation layer, middle-tier components for business logic and data access, and a Microsoft SQL Server database.


You are in the process of creating a middle-tier component that will execute the data access routines in your application. When data is passed to this component, the component will call several SQL Server stored procedures to perform database updates. All of these procedure calls run under the control of a single transaction.


The code for the middle-tier component will implement the following objects:
SqlConnection cn = new SqlConnection();
SqlTransaction tr;


If two users try to update the same data concurrently, inconsistencies such as phantom reads will occur. You must now add code to your component to specify the highest possible level of protection against such inconsistencies.
Which code segment should you use?

A) tr = cn.BeginTransaction(?ReadCommitted?); B) tr = cn.BeginTransaction(IsolationLevel.ReadCommitted);
C) tr = cn.BeginTransaction(IsolationLevel.Serializable); D) tr = cn.BeginTransaction(?Serializable?);
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) tr = cn.BeginTransaction(IsolationLevel.Serializable);

Explanation:

Serializable is the highest isolation transaction level. It provide the highest possible level of protection against concurrent data errors. The correct syntax to begin a transaction with this transaction isolation level is: cn.BeginTransaction(IsolationLevel.Serializable)

Q:

You use Visual Studio .NET to create an assembly, called XYZAssembly, that will be used by other applications, including a standard COM client application.


You must deploy your assembly on the COM application to a client computer. You must ensure that the COM application can instantiate components within the assembly as COM components.

What should you do?

A) Create a strong name of the assembly by using the Strong Name tool (Sn.exe). B) Generate a type library for the assembly by using the Type Library Importer (Tlbimp.exe). Register the file on the client computer.
C) Generate a registry file for the assembly by using the Assembly Registration tool (Regasm.exe) Register the file on the client computer. D) Deploy the assembly to the global assembly cache on the client computer. Add a reference to the assembly in the COM client application.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Generate a registry file for the assembly by using the Assembly Registration tool (Regasm.exe) Register the file on the client computer.

Explanation:

The Assembly Registration tool reads the metadata within an assembly and adds the necessary entries to the registry, which allows COM clients to create .NET Framework classes transparently. Once a class is registered, any COM client can use it as though the class were a COM class..

 

Incorrect Answers:

Option A:
The Strong Name tool helps sign assemblies with strong names.


Option B:
The Type Library Importer, tlbimp.exe, converts the type definitions found within a COM type library into equivalent definitions in a common language runtime assembly. It would not be useful in this scenario however.


Option D:
This would not allow the COM application to use the class.

Q:

You use Visual Studio .NET to create a Windows-based application. The application includes a form named XYZProcedures (EXP). EXP allows users to enter very lengthy text into a database. When users click the Print button located on EXP, this text must be printed by the default printer.

 

You implement the printing functionality by using the native .NET System Class Libraries with all default settings.

 

Users report that only the first page of the text is being printed.

How should you correct this problem?

A) In the BeginPrint event, set the HasMorePages property of the PrintEventArgs object to True. B) In the EndPrint event, set the HasMorePages property of the PrintEventArgs object to True.
C) In the PrintPage event, set the HasMorePages property of the PrintPageEventArgs object to True. D) In the QueryPageSettings event, set the HasMorePages property of the QueryPageSettingEventArgs object to True.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) In the PrintPage event, set the HasMorePages property of the PrintPageEventArgs object to True.

Explanation:

PrintDocument.PrintPage Event occurs when the output to print for the current page is needed. This event has the HasMorePages property which gets or sets a value indicating whether an additional page should be printed.

Q:

You are a developer for a XYZ Inc that provides free software over the Internet. You are developing en e-mail application that users all over the world can download.

 

The application displays text strings in the user interface. At run time, these text strings must appear in the language that is appropriate to the locale setting of the computer running the application.

 

You have resources to develop versions of the application for only four different cultures.You must ensure that your application will also be usable by people of other cultures.
How should you prepare the application for deployment?

A) Package a different assembly for each culture. B) Package a different executable file for each culture.
C) Package a main assembly for source code and the default culture. Package satellite assemblies for the other cultures. D) Package a main assembly for source code. Package satellite assemblies for each culture.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Package a main assembly for source code and the default culture. Package satellite assemblies for the other cultures.

Explanation:

When you build a project, the resource files are compiled and then embedded in satellite assemblies, or assemblies which contain only the localized resources. The fallback resources are built into the main assembly, which also contains the application code.

Q:

You use Visual Studio .NET to develop a Windows-based application that interacts with a Microsoft SQL Server database. Your application contains a form named CustomerForm.

 You add the following design-time components to the form:

• SqlConnection object named XYZConnection.
• SqlDataAdapter object named XYZDataAdapter.
• DataSet object named XYZDataSet.
• Five TextBox controls to hold the values exposed by XYZDataSet.


At design time, you set the DataBindings properties of each TextBox control to the appropriate column in the DataTable object of XYZDataSet. When you test the application, you can successfully connect to the database. However, no data is displayed in any text boxes.

You need to modify your application code to ensure that data is displayed appropriately. Which behavior should occur while the CustomerForm.Load event handler is running?

A) Execute the BeginInit method of XYZDataSet. B) Execute the Open method of XYZConnection.
C) Execute the FillSchema method of XYZDataAdapter and pass in XYZDataSet. D) Execute the Fill method of XYZDataAdapter and pass in XYZDataSet.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Execute the Fill method of XYZDataAdapter and pass in XYZDataSet.

Explanation:

Dataset is a container; therefore, you need to fill it with data. You can populate a dataset by calling the Fill method of a data adapter.

Q:

You responsible for maintaining an application that was written by a former colleague at XYZ.

 

The application reads from and writes to log files located on the local network. The original author included the following debugging code to facilitate maintenance:

try {
Debug.WriteLine(“Inside Try”);
throw(new IOException());}
catch (IOException e) {
Debug.WriteLine (“IOException Caught”);}
catch (Exception e) {
Debug.WriteLine(“Exception Caught”);}.
finally {
Debug.WriteLine (“Inside Finally”);}
Debug.WriteLine (“After End Try”);

 

Which output is produced by thus code?

A) Inside Try Exception Caught IOException Caught Inside Finally After End Try B) Inside Try Exception Caught Inside Finally After End Try
C) Inside Try IOException Caught Inside Finally After End Try D) Inside Try IOException Caught Inside Finally
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Inside Try IOException Caught Inside Finally After End Try

Explanation:

First the try code runs. Then one single exception, the IOException occurs, not two exceptions.Then the Finally code segments executes. After Finally code bas been executed normal application resumes at the next line after the line that called the error. In this case, the After End Try code runs.

Q:

You develop a Windows-based application that enables to enter product sales. You add a subroutine named XYZ.

 

You discover that XYZ sometimes raises an IOException during execution. To address this problem you create two additional subroutines named LogError and CleanUp. These subroutines are governed by the following rules:

• LogError must be called only when XYZ raises an exception.
• CleanUp must be called whenever XYZ is complete.

 

 You must ensure that your application adheres to these rules. Which code segment should you use?

A) try { XYZ(); LogError(); } catch (Exception e) { CleanUp(e); } B) try { XYZ(); } catch (Exception e) { LogError(e); CleanUp(); }
C) try { XYZ(); } catch (Exception e) { LogError(e); } finally { CleanUp(); } D) try { XYZ(); } catch (Exception e) { CleanUp(e); } finally { LogError(); }
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) try { XYZ(); } catch (Exception e) { LogError(e); } finally { CleanUp(); }

Explanation:

We must use a try…catch…finally construct. First we run the Comapany() code in the try block.Then we use the LogError() subroutine in the catch statement since all exceptions are handled here. Lastly we put the CleanUp() subroutine in the finally statement since this code will be executed regardless of whether an exception is thrown or not.
