where to create the BLL and DAL and all classes in it can we place them in the App_code folder as it ll convert them into DLL Files or do we have to create a new class library project for each...
View 1 RepliesI have a third party dll and i need to add some more functionalities (methods, constants etc..) so create a wrapper class. I have no idea about wrapper classes. what is the purpose of this and how to create in .NET for this 3rd party dll.
View 6 RepliesI've been worked with web services so far, and I'm interested in expanding my services to console applications as well so I started digging up with WCF but I'm conserned that I won't be able to use the HttpContext collection that I've been used to do with web services one important thing which is to generate a random value from HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["ALL_HTTP"] that I need to reckon if it's the same or at least near what machine that is calling my service. How can I overcome this problem?
I need to know what machine is calling to count the number of attempts to login into my system for example. So must do it inside of the svc code otherwise if I let the client inform what ip address or what computer he is using, anyone could forge this argument and surpass by another machine. May be I'm approaching this matter wrongly. And I should count the number of attempts per state session, but how is it done?
guide in typical 4 layered architecture (having User Interface, Custom Types, Business Logic, Data Access Layer) do we follow some design pattern ? I am not clear what pattern it is or what pattern it should be called.
View 3 RepliesI am a asp.net developer and don't know much about patterns and architecture.In my web applications I use 4 layers.Web site project (having web forms + code behind cs files, user controls + code behind cs files, master pages + code behind cs files)
CustomTypesLayer a class library (having custom types, enumerations, DTOs, constructers, get, set and validations)
BusinessLogicLayer a class library (having all business logic, rules and all calls to DAL functions)
DataAccessLayer a class library( having just classes communicating to database.)
-My user interface just calls BusinessLogicLayer. BusinessLogicLayer do proecessign in it self and for data it calls DataAccessLayer funtions.
-Web forms do not calls directly DAL.
-CustomTypesLayer is shared by all layers.
I though it may be MVC or MVP but pages have there code behind files as well which are confusing me.
Does data binding fit in a 3 layered architecture? Is dropping a grid-view on a web form and binding it to a LinkDataSource or SQLDataSource considered bad? The way I see it, that's the Presentation Layer talking to the Data Access Layer. I once heard a "professional developer" say never ever do this, so what's the alternative if you shouldn't?
View 3 RepliesI have been looking at the Repository Pattern. While trolling around the net I have come across many implementations and examples. Many of these examples have code like:
ObjectDataSource1.Datasource = CustomerRepository.GetAll();.
Since the Repository basically serves as the Data Access Layer, doesn't this violate the principles of a layered approach by having a UI component accessing the data access layer? If so, my assumption is that I would need to wrap the call CustomerRepository.GetAll() in some business object like:
ObjectDataSource1.Datasource = CustomerManager.GetAll();
where CustomerManager calls CustomerRepository.GetAll();.
If this is correct, what benefit am I getting by wrapping a business class around the Repository? It seems like I am adding an extra layer for the sole purpose of avoiding calling the DataAccessLayer/Repository directly from the UI?
Is it okay for the UI to have access to my Data Access layer in order to read data from the database?
I'm thinking of using 3 layered architecture in my web site.Kind of classic layers - Presentation, BL, DAL and BO - business objects, just like in this great article http://imar.spaanjaars.com/QuickDocId.aspx?quickdoc=416I will have 4 projects according to levels.I'm goung to store data in xml files and my question is where should those files be located? In App_Data folder of web site? Then how DAL will know path where to find files to parse?

View 7 RepliesI've never tried this myself, but am attempting to build a proto-type of a discovery service (much like WS-DISCO Services) for a research project I'm currently working on.
Was wondering if anyone had tried it before with WCF/ASP.NET and have any articles/blog posts to share?
I'm implementing n-tier structure in the current app I'm working on. Because DataBinding a list of my Objects to a Repeater was far too slow I need to databind a DataTable to the Repeater. Should I still DataBind to a Function (that returns a DataTable) in the BLL that calls a Function in the DAL that returns a DataTable?

View 2 RepliesI want to know Can an assembly contains more then one classes?
View 1 RepliesI am in the planning phases of building a new ASP.NET website. The website is really a transactional web application where the users will log in and perform basic CRUD data operations. For right now this website will be accessible through a traditional desktop browser and a mobile browser. For the mobile browser we will build a separate scaled down version of the site.In the future we may decide to create native mobile applications for Android or iOS devices also.
So the question I have is what is the best way to design the system to easily support that? Here is what I am thinking. I am thinking of building out 3 tiers to the site. The back end will be the database - SQL Server 2008. We will use stored procedures for all data access. The middle tier will be a web services tier. This tier will be built using RESTful web services and will contain all of the business logic. These web services will provide access to the database. The front end will be built using ASP.NET. The front end will only contain presentation logic. These tiers will actually be deployed on physically separate servers.
Then I am thinking that when we decide to build a native Android or iOS app that we could build those apps to simply call the same RESTful web services that the main site is calling.Does this seem like a reasonable approach? The only thing I can think of is that the way we are building it right now the web services would be behind the firewall and would not be accessible to the outside world. When we want to support a native mobile app then we would need to make the web services accessible to the outside world.Any thoughts? Does this seem like a good approach for building a high availability, high usage web app that needs to support native mobile apps in the future?
1) I have a question, many kind of applications / programs offer API's for integration.Is it possible to integrate any kind of application / program with any kind of application with the help of API ?i mean two completely different applications/programs with different database structure can still be integrated with each other with the help of API ?2) Where exactly is the API file stored ? i mean in order to integrate 2 applications i need to create an xml file ? and store it where ? or i have to do some modification in the code of my application in order to work with this api integration ? how it works..please guide me in a right direction....
3) Could anyone explain me how this API thing works ? i have been provided a PDF file by the application company that i need to integrate with my database based web application.now i have to make API connections in my code ? or how ?
I got loads of website, that share one of two baseclasses. I need the two baseclasses to be able to share part of the same code. I dont want to have to duplicate the shared code per baseclass.
so.. I got a page.aspx that inherits the baseclass and that inhertis 'sub' baseclass that inherits the web.ui.page class. So far so good :-)
In my baseclass I got a Public (at the top of the class not in any method- not sure of the proper term) Varable that is constructed from a structure in the BO class.
it Public PageDetails AS CoreDomainSetupBO.GetStartUpDetails = {database method}
I need the pagedetails to be available in the sub baseclass but it cant be defined there as the page details value is defined differently in the different base classes.
I hope that makes sense, I need to sub base class to be able to use a property that is defined at baseclass level.
I am looking for general direction on the best practice here. I have a class that I want to share between two different forms in two projects that are associated. The two forms are in seperate projects but both projects load together as I have added the second project to the first. I also have a class that I want to share between these two projects which will cause me to add another project to this solution with will mean I will have three projects in my solution. My question is how do I best share this class?
I believe the only way to do this is to add the class in the reference in both of the form projects?... Is this correct ? I'd really like to just reference the class and inherit it in the source code without adding it as a reference but I am feeling that I can't do that. I am obviously pressed for time and working on other projects and a I am a experienced coder with only about 1 year of C# experience...
I am searching for what are the standard best practice (for OOP) used to design classes for develop asp.net application? I am aware of most of the OOP concepts but confused with how to map object/classes.
Let's take example of Adventure works - 2005 database provided by Microsoft; it has five schemas Sales, Purchase, Person, Production, HR and DBO.
Should we consider Schemas as Namespace in Classes?
Now, Person schema has 5 tables, should we design classes based on tables?
i.e. Person schema has Address, AddressType, Contact, ContactType, CountryRegion & StateProvince tables. What are the classes we can consider?
What are the basic criteria to decide objects? What to do and how to design classes for tables like Purchase order detail, Product cost history, Product inventory, Product Category etc.
I am updating a project I wrote some time ago. At the time my preference was for DataSets and DataSetTableAdapters, but I've now moved on to use Linq to SQL DataClasses. I would like to convert the project to Linq to SQL, but I am tight on time and it's a big job. My question is, is there any reasons I can't develop new modules using Linq to SQL DataClasses along side DataSets and convert the DataSets overtime?
Apart from the obvious confusion it will cause, are there any technical problems I should be aware of i.e. will there be any performance problems using the two methods?

Or should you only use the external class to process some data, return that data back to the main class (that instantiated that external class object) and then have an internal function in the main class to deliver the data to the control? (back to the screen)
