Hey Now,
Please feel free to check out my MCTS 70-536 reference page on Chris Catto.com. It’s a page with a summary of all of my posts.
As I study for this test I thought this would be good to post on to learn the content & others would be able to view & comment on it.
This content below is from some practice questions from the internet & not sure the answers are correct. There were over 200 questions & some duplicates, I hope to study all of them. I’ve also added some of my notes to these so any line starting with K8 (my nickname, first syllable of Catt o ) are my comments.
Whew! 211 Questions reviewed!
Thx,
Catto
Q: #186 - #211
Question: 186
You are writing code for user authentication and authorization. The username, password, and roles are stored in your application data store. You need to establish a user security context that will be used for authorization checks such as IsInRole. You write the following code segment to authorize the user.
If TestPassword(UserName, Password) = False Then
Throw New Exception("Could not authenticate user")End If
Dim RolesArray() As String = LookUpUserRoles(UserName)
You need to complete this code so that it establishes the user security context. Which code segment should you use?
A. Dim objID As New GenericIdentity(UserName)
Dim objUser As New GenericPrincipal(objID, RolesArray)
Thread.CurrentPrincipal = objUser
B. Dim objID As New WindowsIdentity(UserName)
Dim objUser As New WindowsPrincipal(objID)
Thread.CurrentPrincipal = objUser
C. Dim objNT As New NTAccount(UserName)
Dim objID As New GenericIdentity(objNT.Value)
Dim objUser As New GenericPrincipal(objID, RolesArray)
Thread.CurrentPrincipal = objUser
D. Dim objToken As IntPtr = IntPtr.Zeroobj
Token = LogonUserUsingInterop(UserName, EncryptedPassword)
Dim objContext As WindowsImpersonationContext =
_WindowsIdentity.Impersonate(objToken)
Answer: A
K8 – Q: Establishes security context A: GenericIdentity GenericPrincipal
Question: 187

C. IsolatedStorageFileStream isoStream;
isoStream = new IsolatedStorageFileStream( “Settings.dat”, FileMode.Open);
string result = isoStream.ToString();
D. IsolatedStorageFile isoFile;
isoFile = IsolatedStorageFile.GetMachineStoreForAssembly();
IsolatedStorageFileStream isoStream;
isoStream = new IsolatedStorageFileStream( “Settings.dat”, FileMode.Open, isoFile);
string result = isoStream.ToString();

Dim PersonName as String = "N?el"
Dim Msg as String = "Welcome " + PersonName + "to club ''!"
Dim r As Boolean= User32API.MessageBox(0, Msg, PersonName, 0)

You are writing a method to compress an array of bytes. The bytes to be compressed are passed to the method in a parameter named document. You need to compress the contents of the incoming parameter. Which code segment should you use?
A. MemoryStream^ intStream = gcnew MemoryStream(document);
GZipStream^ zipStream = gcnew GZipStream(inStream, CompressionMode::Compress);

zipStream->Write(result, 0, result->Length);
return result;
B. MemoryStream^ stream = gcnew MemoryStream(document);
GZipStream^ zipStream = gcnew GZipStream(stream,
CompressionMode::Compress);
zipStream->Write(document, 0, document- >Length);
zipStream->Close();
return stream->ToArray();
C. MemoryStream^ outStream = gcnew MemoryStream();
GZipStream^ zipStream = gcnew GZipStream(outStream,
CompressionMode::Compress);
zipStream->Write(document, 0, document->Length);
zipStream->Close();
return outStream->ToArray();
D. MemoryStream^ inStream = gcnew MemoryStream(document);
GZipStream^ zipStream = gcnew GZipStream(inStream,
CompressionMode::Compress);
MemoryStream^ outStream = gcnew MemoryStream();
int b;
while ((b = zipStream->ReadByte()) != -1) {
outStream->WriteByte((Byte)b);

Question: 192
You develop a service application named PollingService that periodically calls long-running procedures. These procedures are called from the DoWork method. You use the following service application code:
Partial Class PollingService Inherits ServiceBase
Dim blnExit As Boolean = False Protected Overrides Sub OnStart(ByVal args() As String)
Do
DoWork()
Loop While Not blnExit
End Sub
Protected Overrides Sub OnStop()
blnExit = True
End Sub
Private Sub DoWork()
End SubEnd Class
When you attempt to start the service, you receive the following error message: Could not start the PollingService service on the local computer. Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. You need to modify the service application code so that the service starts properly. What should you do?
A. Move the loop code into the constructor of the service class from the OnStart method.
B. Drag a timer component onto the design surface of the service. Move the calls to the long-running procedure from the OnStart method into the Tick event procedure of the timer, set
the Enabled property of the timer to True, and call the Start method of the timer in the OnStart method.
C. Add a class-level System.Timers.Timer variable to the service class code. Move the call to the DoWork method into the Elapsed event procedure of the timer, set the Enabled property of the timer to True, and call the Start method of the timer in the OnStart method.
D. Move the loop code from the OnStart method into the DoWork method.
Answer: C
K8 - System.Timers.Timer
Question: 193

For each
(IdentityReference^ grp in currentUser->Groups) {
NTAccount^ grpAccount =
safe_cast<NTAccount^>(grp->Translate(NTAccount::typeid));
isAuthorized = grpAccount->Value->Equals(

B. WindowsPrincipal^ currentUser =
safe_cast<WindowsPrincipal^>(Thread::CurrentPrincipal);
isAuthorized = currentUser->IsInRole(“Clerk”);
C. GenericPrincipal^ currentUser = safe_cast<GenericPrincipal^>(Thread::CurrentPrincipal);
isAuthorized = currentUser->IsInRole(“Clerk”);
D. WindowsPrincipal^ currentUser = safe_cast<WindowsPrincipal^>(Thread::CurrentPrincipal);
isAuthorized = currentUser->IsInRole( Environment::MachineName);
Answer: B

if (obj is Age) { Age_age = (Age) obj;
return Value.ComapreTo(obj);
}
throw new ArgumentException(“object not an Age”);
