Is there any Supported / Unsupported ways to remove new buttons from inline lookup in crm 2013/ 2016 ?
I don't want to do it via security role way.
Also from the loop up window?
There is no supported way apart from what you mention: Remove the Create privilege for the given entity.
Strictly unsupported, but doable via straight DOM manipulation.
I don't have working code at hand, but the ID of what you need to hide is Dialog_<AttributeName>_IMenu in CRM 2016 Update 1

I'm trying to migrate specific objects from one database to another using sqlpackage.exe /action:Extract and sqlpackage.exe /action:Script. Currently I'm creating the script and filtering the unneeded objects manually, I would like to be able to exclude them all together and to automate the process. So far I didn't find in the documentation any option that does it.Thanks.
There is no way to remove single objects with native functionality. Natively you can remove only specific object types.
You can write your own deployment contributor and then skip whatever objects you need. Here is an example here.
Check Ed Elliot's ready to use contributor with bunch of configuration options (I haven't used it for a while and do not know how does it work with the new versions of SQL Server).
Additionally, in Ed Elliot's blog you can find a lot of useful information.
I was wondering if anyone had any information on how to change a priority on a rule in HP Fortify?
For example in C, the category "Uninitialized Variables" has the fortify priority order of LOW. I need to change to HIGH for auditing purposes. Is there any way to change a rule or do I need to create a new rule?
If I need to create a new rule, how would I make a rule that matches "Uninitialized Variables" and make it global for other users to use?
There's not really way for you to modify the existing rule pack. But that's okay. There's something much easier that I can suggest that does not involve trying to create or modify custom rules (which can get a very messy if you're not careful).
The easiest thing you can do is create a custom Folder Filter.
Open up your FPR in Audit Workbench. Select the correct Filter Set that you normally use.
Your chosen Filter Set will be home to
our new Visibility Filter. For example purposes I will use the Security Auditor View. Then select the Filters tab and click Create New Filter.
Use the values shown below, but feel free to adjust if needed, and then click Save:
At this point, you should be able to see the Uninitialized Variable findings in the High tab.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS:
This change to the organization of your Fortify Findings right now, only is in effect for this one FPR. If you wish to have this filter rule exist in scan for other projects, then you will need to modify the default fortify filters be creating something called a custom Fortify Issue Template. Check your fortify documentation to get more information on this.
If you try to upload this to SSC (Software Security Center) where you might want to perform some reporting, then the default Issue Template that lives on SSC will be used to sort and organize your scan's issues, when generating reports. If you wish for your new custom Fortify Issue Template to be used for reporting and organization withing the web UI, then you will need to override the default Issue Template on the SSC server with your new custom Issue Template. Again, see your documentation for more information on this.
Finally, there is a way to potentially create a custom Fortify Control Flow rule (which will need to be used, together in combination, with a suppression rule) that will make it possible to essentially reassign the priority metadata for your particular issue, but this is quite difficult.
we have multiple features that needs to be developed but management decides which features go into Live.. this requires us to have a script for each User Story/Change . But how can I link a DB schema change to a User story in TFS?
What we have now:
TFS with User Story/Task
CC.net Buildserver
I've done research for SSDT, looks awesome! but how can i Link this with TFS?
thanks for reading,
Andy.
As long as your database scripts (or SSDT projects if you choose to move that direction) are checked into TFS version control, there is a deep connection between changesets and work items. When looking at your pending changes before checking in code, there is an option to associate a work item (i.e. a User Story or a Task). If you are using Visual Studio 2012, this is what associating a work item would look like:
And this is what it would look like if you are checking in via Windows Explorer:
There can be a lot of complexity associated with making changes to a system independent of each other. The best solution I've found involves creating "feature toggles" so that you enable or disable a feature after it has been deployed. Take a look at continuous delivery as a topic. Jez Humble wrote a great book on the subject.
Database schema changes can be more complex in some cases than just enabling or disabling a feature. I would suggest using an expand / contract model. You would add any new structure to the database in advance and get that deployed into production in a non-breaking way. Then when you enable the feature that has a dependency on that structure, it's already there. If you need to clean up the database schema after you've removed something then you could do the "contract" cycle out of band with other software changes to reduce the surface area of test.
I am building an application in Qt/QML.
I have a table view of the database (PostgreSQL).
Is there a way to dynamically refresh my table if there is any change in the database.
One no-so-efficient way to do it is to keep sending periodic SQL queries.
Is there any automatic way to keep my view refreshed?
I am open to use any other Database also if required.
Qt seems to support the NOTIFY mechanism of PostgreSQL databases. Googling for it it found some bug reports, so not sure of well implemented that is. Since I've never used it, I'll have to refer you to google.
If you use QSqlTableModel (or an editable subclass of QSqlQueryModel) with QTableView, any edits made will immediately be visible.
I am using LLBL Gen Pro v2.6 and am attempting to create a means of auditing changes made to the database. Now, I know that LLBL Gen has auditing built into it using AuditorBase and dependency injection. The question I have is; I need to track not only the stuff that LLBL Gen exposes as auditable, but also the User who made the changes. From what I've seen there isn't a built in way of gathering this information. Has anyone used LLBL Gen's built in auditing and determined a way to do this?
Wayne E. Pfeffer
I have used LLBLGens Auditing classes. Determining the user is really something that you will have to handle. There are too many variables for LLBLGen to actually do this for you. How are your users handled? Is this a winforms or asp.net application?
The best solution would be to store the UserId in a session variable or static variable depending on which is more appropriate for your application. In your implementation of the Auditing class you can just pull the UserId from its storage place.
Another potential solution would be to override the Entity Class or the Data Adapter classes and pass the UserId in to your save methods. However, this would be a lot more work.
In my WinForms app, I accomplish this by creating a custom IPrincipal and stick that on System.Threading.Thread.CurrentPrincipal when a user logs into the application. Then, I can easily grab that from inside my LLBLGen auditing classes.
We're also about to implement auditing of changes to the db, and have the same issue of adding the user_id to the auditlog. I can see you can do the pull-approach, e.g. fetchingn the user_id from the web session (we're building a web application), but this would completely mess up the layering of the application, as I see it!?
I.e. if the DAL pulls data information from the presentation layer (web session), I won't be able to use the DAL in other contexts?
