betting tips

If you are like me, here are some good betting tips.

Each of these factors has sub-factors, which further contribute to the rating assigned to each horse.

Horse
-Raw ability
-Distance form
-Ground form
-Maturity / Exposure

Jockey
-Weight
-Success individually
-Success with today's trainer
-Success at this course

Trainer
-percentage of winners in the last 6 months
-percentage of winners in the last 4weeks
-Success at this course

By quantifying these factors each with a different weighting dependant on importance - i.e. a 3rd in a Class C event is more valuable in terms of weighting than 3rd in a seller

The final stage for this product to identify the two selections that stand out, not necessarily those with the highest ratings, but those with the greatest percentage above the next best horse in their races.

CurrentDeployment.UpdateLocation cached

i came up with a carzy bug last week, in OneClick deployment CurrentDeployment.UpdateLocation.AbsoluteUri always return a cached url ??? it passes first time passed parameters back again and again when you run the application . so always use the ApplicationDeployment.CurrentDeployment.ActivationUri insted of UpdateLocation.AbsoluteUri.

if you are getting a null issue in CurrentDeployment.ActivationUri that means you have not set the application publish->options allow parameters option

just wanted to add this to my previous post..

if you get AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ActivationArguments.ActivationData = null then use ApplicationDeployment.CurrentDeployment.UpdateLocation.AbsoluteUri

parameter passing for oneclick installtion url

I have been involve in making our application web enable application for last 2 weeks and now a new requirement came to pass a parameter via the installation back to the application, i did a search on Google nothing much came out so i have post what i did so some one could benefit from it


1. go to project properties -> Publish
2. click on options and check "allow parameters to be pass to the url"
3. use this code snippet extract the parameter value,
4. eg http://www.hostname.com/sample.application?parameter=test



private static string parseParameters()
{


if (ApplicationDeployment.IsNetworkDeployed)
{


string[] activationData = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ActivationArguments.ActivationData;
if (activationData != null)
{

Uri url = new Uri(activationData[0]);

Regex fileRegex = new Regex(@"^\?parameter=(?<1>[^&]*)$",
RegexOptions.Singleline);
Match fileMatch = fileRegex.Match(Uri.UnescapeDataString(url.Query));
if (fileMatch.Success)
return fileMatch.Groups[1].Value;
}


}
else
{

return null;
}

}
