It is important that companies must update their applications for compatibility with rapid evaluation of  technologies such as mobile devices, software as a service etc. Customers must be happy even after their database grow and the application complexity increases. Current trend is to follow Agile Methodology which forces the stack holders to use iterations for development and reusability of code can save much time.

Some companies commented that they were able to improve productivity of developer up to 40% by reusing assets from Patterns and Practices.

It is also possible to reduce the project cycle times by using pre-built application blocks in Patterns & Practices rather than building the code from scratch.

Some companies commented they were able to shorten project cycle times up to  25% by using pre-built components of Enterprise Library

Here comes the role of Microsoft Patterns and Practices. This gives guidance to to companies to do

• design
• develop
• deploy

using Microsoft platform effectively and rapidly.

If you plan to use Patterns & Practices for your company, you will be spending less time for development it may be even less time than your requirement analysis time.

Microsoft provide:

• A group of Patterns & Practices tools are freely available and
• The Source Code of these tools as also available for free so that the company can alter and use if they need.

The Microsoft Patterns & Practices supports Web, Windows, Mobile Devices etc. These are the forms of support we can avail:

• Enterprise Library Application Blocks – Reusable library for:
• Data Access
• Caching
• Cryptography
• Exception Handling
• Logging, Security
• Policy Injection and
• Validation
• Software Factory – Helps architects and developers to create instances of specify types of applications
• Guides – Architecture and Design guidelines
• Reference Implementations – Sample applications

Except for the WH_KEYBOARD_LL low-level hook and the WH_MOUSE_LL low-level hook, you cannot implement global hooks in the Microsoft .NET Framework. To install a global hook, a hook must have a native DLL export to inject itself in another process that requires a valid, consistent function to call into. This behavior requires a DLL export. The .NET Framework does not support DLL exports. Managed code has no concept of a consistent value for a function pointer because these function pointers are proxies that are built dynamically.

Low-level hook procedures are called on the thread that installed the hook. Low-level hooks do not require that the hook procedure be implemented in a DLL.

Above link explains these useful details:

• Maximum Number of Objects
• Maximum Number of Security Identifiers
• Group Memberships for Security Principals
• FQDN Length Limitations
• File Name Length Limitations
• Additional Name Length Limitations

EXEC sp_GetProject GETDATE()
 
Error:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near ')'.

To avoid this, you will need to create a variable and pass it to the stored procedure. Like this:

DECLARE @dt DATETIME;
SET @dt=GETDATE();
 
EXEC sp_GetProject @dt
