UI framework for web app and mobile device

I found this framework very rich and fantastic to use for web app and mobile too (iPhone) , follow the exisiting sample , and in case of mobile look at their demo on your iPhone, looks like native.

another popular framework is the jQTouch ,a jQuery plugin for mobile web development on the iPhone,
iPod Touch, and other forward-thinking devices.

LogonUser API and get the user Groups

network management functions are very useful function to integrate your software with the network services such directory services (LDAP) etc.
In my case i used the LogonUser API to check a valid user/password of a user against the AD, and than i used NetUserGetLocalGroups api to check a valid group to the specific user.
of course you can do it as well with the ADSI api , but i found this easier to use.
note:
your running process should have permission to get the user groups.

Running Batch file from network location

I develop a java tester tool for our testers , and to avoid installing java run time on their machines, i create a directory in the network and copy there the java run time with my specific jars.
to make the life easier i create a batch file to run the tester tool.
hammmm , when i tried to run the batch file i get the next error on the next command  cd .\java\bin,
“CMD does not support UNC paths as current directories“.

i solved it by the next command: "pushd %~dp0\java\bin"
the %~dp0  is to Get the Directory Path of an executing Batch file
dont forget in the end use POPD command .

i have put all the stuff on the network e.g. \\server1\tester\
so finally my batch file looks like this :
@ECHO OFF
pushd %~dp0\java\bin
java -DPARAM1=../../param.config -jar ../../param.jar %1
popd
pause

C++ MQ application without MQ Client installation

The next stuff tested on mq v5.3.
Sometimes your program run on the same machine where the MQ server is installed , so why to install MQ client on this server , if you have the MQ server there ??
the "Trick" is in your app development , you need to compile and link your application with the correct MQ library , client or server.Usually the server library contains  the s character and the client with the c.
e.g. imq{c|s}23in, imq{c|s}23vn.

when dealing with server binding you need to know the next stuff, the channel name and the server name is ignored, the important parameters is just the queue manager name , and the queues name.
In case you want to connect to the default queue manager name leave the queue manager name empty.
