Microsoft UPG:Transition MCPD.NET Frmwrk 3.5 Web Dev to 4 Web Dev Sample Questions:

Question 1

You are developing an ASP.NET application by using Visual Studio 2010. You need to interactively debug the entire application. Which two actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)

A. Define the DEBUG constant in the project settings.
B. Select the ASP.NET debugger option in the project properties.
C. Set the Debug attribute of the compilation node of the web.config file to true.
D. Add a DebuggerDisplay attribute to the code-behind file of the page that you want to debug.

Question 2

You use Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 and Microsoft .NET Framework 4 to create an application. The
application connects to a Microsoft SQL Server database. The application uses a DataTable named
OrderDetailTable that has the following columns: "ID "OrderID "ProductID "Quantity "LineTotal Some
records contain a null value in the LineTotal field and 0 in the Quantity field. You write the following code
segment. (Line numbers are included for reference only.)
01DataColumn column = new DataColumn("UnitPrice", typeof(double));
02
03OrderDetailTable.Columns.Add(column);
You need to add a calculated DataColumn named UnitPrice to the OrderDetailTable object. You also need
to ensure that UnitPrice is set to 0 when it cannot be calculated. Which code segment should you insert at
line 02?

A. column.Expression = "LineTotal/ISNULL(Quantity, 1)";
B. column.Expression = "iif(Quantity > 0, LineTotal/Quantity, 0)";
C. column.Expression = "LineTotal/Quantity";
D. column.Expression = "if(Quantity > 0, LineTotal/Quantity, 0)";

Question 3

You use Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 and Microsoft .NET Framework 4 to create a Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) Data Services service. The service connects to a Microsoft SQL Server 2008 database. The service is hosted by an Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 server. You need to ensure that applications authenticate against user information stored in the database before the application is allowed to use the service. Which two actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)

A. Configure IIS to require basic authentication.
B. Configure IIS to require Windows authentication.
C. Enable the WCF Authentication Service.
D. Configure IIS to allow anonymous access.
E. Modify the Data Services service to use a Microsoft ASP.NET membership provider.

Question 4

You use Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 and Microsoft .NET Framework 4 to create a Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) Data Services service. The service connects to a Microsoft SQL Server 2008 database. The service is hosted by an Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 Web server.
The application works correctly in the development environment. However, when you connect to the service on the production server, attempting to update or delete an entity results in an error. You need to ensure that you can update and delete entities on the production server. What should you do?

A. Add the following line of code to the InitializeService method of the service. config.SetEntitySetAccessRule ("*",EntitySetRights.WriteDelete | EntitySetRights.WriteMerge);
B. Add the following line of code to the InitializeService method of the service. config.SetEntitySetAccessRule ("*",EntitySetRights.WriteDelete | EntitySetRights.WriteInsert);
C. Configure IIS to allow the PUT and DELETE verbs for the .svc Application Extension.
D. Configure IIS to allow the POST and DELETE verbs for the .svc Application Extension.

Question 5

You are creating a Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) service that implements operations in a
RESTful manner.
You need to add a delete operation.
You implement the delete method as follows.
string void DeleteItems(string id);
You need to configure WCF to call this method when the client calls the service with the HTTP DELETE
operation. What should you do?

A. Add the HttpDelete attribute to the operation.
B. Add the WebInvoke(UriTemplate = "/Items/{id}",Method="DELETE") attribute to the operation.
C. Replace the return type with RemovedActivityAction.
D. Replace the string parameter with a RemovedActivityAction parameter.
