Architecture :: Entity Model Design Framework And N - Tier Architecture
Dec 25, 2010recently i've studied on ADO.NET's Entity Model Framework and say 'wow' as ORM is one of the fevourite pattern i practice..but suddenly i've come to an ambiguous situation when i'm going to start. i usually follow the following 3-tier architecture..
1. UI Layer
2. BLL - business logic layer
3. DAL - Data Access Layer
a. DTO / DAO
b. Gateway (contains the sql query/stored procedure and connection with DB)
now when i'm going to use the Entity Model Design,where the DBML/ .edmx File should be placed? Because many a times i'm using the DBML file as DTO because of the mapped objects.. in the same time, sometimes DBML ( .edmx file in .NET 4.0) contains CRUD methods and stored procedured method as well as methods with different selection operations,- which should be in Gateway. so where the .edmx file should be placed !?!! IN DTO namespace !? or in Gateway namespace!
moreover sometimes there is no need for the BLL which breaks the rules of inter-layer-communication (UI > BLL > DAL.Gateway)! what makes me confuse is, what should be the ideal n-tier architecture when i'll use the ADO.NET Entity Model Design Framework

View 4 RepliesDataSource Controls :: Entity Framework And Architecture Of Model - Create Application Using EF
Feb 10, 2010I can't to understand clearly how to create strong and quickly application using EF. For example, I have class ForumPost (table ForumPost) for select one of record I write method like:
public ForumPost ForumPost(int ForumPostID)
{
return
(from i in _dataContext.ForumPostSet
where i.ForumPostID == ForumPostID select i).First();
}
all works. But on page (I use ASP.NET MVC) I should display info from another linked tables, ForumName (each post have ForumID) etc. So, I modify this method to:
public ForumPost ForumPost(int ForumPostID)
{
return
(from i in _dataContext.ForumPostSet
.Include("ChildPosts").Include("ParentPost").Include("Users").Include("Forums").Include("Tags").Include("ForumPostPolls")
where i.ForumPostID == ForumPostID select i).First();
}
ok, all works. Then I want to make some actions in model with ForumPost, i.e.
public void RootPost(int PostID, ref Models.ForumPost Root)
{
ForumPost post = ForumPost(PostID);
if (post.RootPost != null)
{
Root = ForumPost(post.RootPost.ForumPostID);
}
else
Root = post;
}
it works too. But problem is in speed. I not need in RootPost all those includes. So, I should to create one more method like:
private ForumPost ForumPostIncludes1(int ForumPostID)
{
return
(from i in _dataContext.ForumPostSet
.Include("ChildPosts")
where i.ForumPostID == ForumPostID
select i).First();
}
then ForumPostIncludes2, ForumPostIncludes3 etc... second way - redesign RootPost with LINQ expr, not with call another method. But in this way difficulties to change DB. third way? How to do it correctly?

View 1 RepliesMVC :: Using Data From Multiple Entity Framework4 Model Entity Objects In MVC2 Controller?
Sep 29, 2010getting data from multiple Entities models into an MVC controller. Most of the examples I have seen for using EF in an MVC2 app only use a single entitiy.
I have just started using MVC2 in C# using the Entity Framework models (CIOps.model) created from an SQL database. I can create the controller and views using single tables of the model in MVC2, but I just cannot get my head around how to get data from multiple entity tables into the controller (similar to joins in T-SQL). I have included an example below of the controller code that works with a single entity table, tbl_tours (tbl_tour in DB).
Could someone please illustrate how this code would be changed to include additional columns from FK tables in addition to tbl_tours columns. E.g. the clients name from the tbl_clients, the coordinators name from the tbl_employees, and costs from tbl_costs entities? Is it possible to do this directly using the EF model entities/classes that are already created and not use LINQ, POCO, Repositories, etc.? The FK relationships are already in the EF models. I have included the whole controller code, but I just need a few examples of how to join the multiple entities, not rewrite every CRUD function function in the controller. I think this will get me over the hump in using EF in an MVC2 App. Also ignore the fact I am using the home controller, this will change in the application.

ADO.NET :: Entity Model - Update Model From DB And The Assembly Reference Seems To Be Missing?
Jan 10, 2011I made a few changes to the DB in SQL server management studio then right clicked on the .edmx doc to get it to update.

The type or namespace name '' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

View 7 RepliesWorkflow Foundation 4 - How To Create A Web Based Representation Of The Workflow
Aug 12, 2010The client wants to see a graphical representation of the workflow. In addition (let's say it is a workflow for processing orders), the client wants to see at what point in the workflow any given order is, indicated on the graphical workflow representation by a highlighted node or some visual queue.
All of this must be available via a web interface.
Was hoping somebody had some bright ideas for how to achieve this without writing extensive custom controls.
Does Workflow Foundation 4 offer anything itself that would assist toward this end?

Exporting Entity Framework 4 Data Model To Entity Framework 3.5?
Oct 25, 2010Is there a way to export a EF 4.0 Data Model to EF 3.5?
I looked around and found that we are not able to access EF 4.0 from a ASP.Net 3.5 project here: [URL]
Our project is the 1st to go to .Net 4.0 using Entity Framework and we (the team) were wondering if there was a way for the other projects that "might" need to access our data that are still using the .Net 3.5 framework.
ADO.NET :: Entity Data Model - How To Use
Feb 16, 2011I program in ASP.NET for a while now. My applications uses always the DataSet. Some told me that Entity Data Model is the DataSet for LINQ. Now I want to try to working with it I have some questions but can't find the answers. I hope someone can. When I build an application I use the 3-tier structure. So Presentation-layer, Business-layer and the Data-layer. Normally I had some classes in the Data layer with specific methods to interact with the DataSet. When I read the table or something I create an object for the business layer.
With the Entity Data Model it seems a little bit confusing. If I read a table (for example Company) the edmx has created an class already. So is the edmx a replacement for the Data-layer and also for the Business layer? Is the edmx also a good use for multi-user application or is a connected application better?

MVC :: Build Model Around Entity SQL?
Mar 15, 2010I want to build my Model around Entity SQL. I'm pretty comfortable with writing SQL queries hence my choice for using entity SQL.
In my model i have this:
namespace Model
{
public class Person
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public string SecondName { get; set; }
public int Age { get; set; }
public DateTime DOB { get; set; }
public void Save()
{
//to do
}
public List<Keyword> GetKeywords()
{
//get data from entity
DBEntities context = new DBEntities();
string sql = "SELECT * from Keyword";
EntityCommand cmd = new EntityCommand(sql);
return ;
}
}
}
how do I execute entity SQL comment?
how can i return a list that is returned from this query?
if i have different classes that need access to DB would I always have to specify "DBEntities context = new DBEntities();" or is there a better way so that all my classes have this configured?

Wcf - SOA Architecture For .NET With Entity Framework
Apr 1, 2011I am redesigning a Solution's Architecture to implement SOA.
After doing the design changes I have come up with:
MySolution.Client.MyProject.Web ...... //ASP.NET WebSite
MySolution.Client.MyProject.Proxy .... //Service Proxy C# Library Project *[1]
MySolution.Service ................... //Service.cs for Service.svc is here
MySolution.Service.DataContract ...... //IService.cs for Service.cs is here *[2] [code]....
This project contains IService and Request/Response Classes
All methods in Service.cs takes the Request classes as input and return Response classes as output
Therefore this project is referenced by the 2 Client Projects(Web and Proxy), as it contains the IService and all of the Request/Response classes that will be required to communicate with Service.cs
*[3]MySolution.Model: This project contains the .edmx that is the Data Model of Entity Framework and some custom classes that are used in the project.
PROBLEM: Because I only use Request/Response classes to communicate between service and client, The MySolution.Service.DataContract project is only used by Service.cs and Repository.cs
And due to that all responses that Repository generates i have to map them to the properties of its respective response class (which make both the original returned entity, and the response class almost identical). But i am OKAY with it ...
e.g: GetCustomer() in Repository.cs method is called by Service.cs
GetCustomer() method in repository performs the LINQ query and return a "Customer" object
Service.cs then maps all the properties of "Customer" object to the "CustomerResponse" object
Service.cs then returns the "CustomerResponse" to the caller.
in this case most of the properties will repeat in both classes, if there is solution to this, its good, otherwise, I am fine with it.However, when Repository.cs's method GetCustomers() (Notice its not GetCustomer()) is called, it will return List of Customer object, and mapping this for return purpose would mean a "for loop" that iterates the collection and do the mapping ... this is NOT OKAY ...
is there any better way of doing this, considering I do not want to return "Customer" object without "CustomerResponse" as first of all it violates the SOA architecture, and secondly I don't want my Client Projects to have any reference to the Model or Repository projects.
MVC :: Google Map Points From ADO.NET Entity Data Model On Map
Jan 30, 2011I have followed this tutorial [URL] to get a google map displayed but now I want do the next step and read the long/lat and text out of my ADO.NET Entity Data Model and put it on the map (preferably the text should appear when clicking on the red spot in a white text box - as you know it from google). Has someone done this already and could let me know how I get the points on the google map? THis is how the function in my controller looks right now:
Function Map() As ActionResult
ViewData.Model = (From m In _db.ahn_mappoints Select m.LONG, m.LAT, BLOG = m.Text.Substring(0, 81) & "...").Take(2).ToList()
Return View()
End Function
