What is ACID properties and How SQL Server Comply to the same

Answer

ACID Propertied is Acronym for
A- Atomicity- Either all the operations/transactions are performed or None.Each transaction is said to be atomic if when one part of the transaction fails, the entire transaction fails and database state is left unchanged.
C- Consistency- This states that at a given moment of time the database is always in consistent. This guarantees that a transaction never leaves your database in a half-finished state.
I- Isolation- Isolation ensures that the transactions are separated(Isolated) from each other until they are finished. This means the transactions does not interfere with one another.
D- Durability- This ensures that once a transaction is commited it is available forever at any given moment of time. This guarantee that once the user has been notified of a transaction's success the transaction will not be lost, the transaction's data changes will survive system failure, and that all integrity constraints have been satisfied.

Command-line Building With csc.exe

By -
Command-line Building With csc.exe You can invoke the C# compiler by typing the name of its executable file (csc.exe) on the command line. If you use the Visual Studio Command Prompt (available as a shortcut on the start menu under Visual Studio Tools), all the necessary environment variables are set for you. Otherwise, you must adjust your path in order to enable csc.exe to be invoked from any subdirectory on your computer. If you do not use the Visual Studio Command Prompt, you must run vsvars32.bat to set the appropriate environment variables to support command line builds. For more information about vsvars32.bat, see How to: Set Environment Variables. If you are working on a computer that only has the Windows Software Development Kit (SDK), you can use the C# compiler at the command line if you use the SDK Command Prompt , which is available from the Microsoft .NET Framework SDK menu option. You can also use MSBuild to programmatically build C# programs. For more informat
