As part of my final year project I am designing a distributed database. I have to decide whether to use
VB .net or C#. I have made a decision as to which I would prefer to use, however I don't know if everything I need to do is possible, so I am exhausting all possibilities in both languages first.
First point is distributing a database in C# just a case of
using something along the lines of:
Code:
using System.Data.SqlClient;
SqlConnection oSQLConn = new SqlConnection();
oSQLConn.ConnectionString="myConnectionString";
oSQLConn.Open();
String myConnectionString = "Data Source=ServerNameHere;Initial Catalog=TheDataBase;User Id=sa;Password=secret;"
//obviously these details are not real values
or is it more complex than that?
Also it has been suggested that I make the main security part of the code a MAC address checker. I can not find anything that helps me with this other than sites that just give me the code. (Which I can't use for obvious reasons) Does anyone know of any books that could help me discover the solution for myself?
PLEASE DO NOT just send me the code!! (Although if there is a reference library I need that will help, that would be appreciated)
Thank you in advance,
