Using ASP.NET MVC 4, ApiControllers and SQL Server 2012(galratner.com)

submitted by galratnergalratner(334) 5 days, 16 hours ago

ASP.NET MVC continues to innovate and in its current version (4) it offers support for Web APIs. Today we are going to examine a real life scenario of using Web APIs along with MVC 4 as we are utilizing the Google Earth plug-in to mark a defined area and SQL Server 2012 geography type to help us persist and calculate GIS data. In our example we are going to mark an area on the globe using a polygon, calculate the center of the area, find all of the coffee shops closest to the center of the area and arrange them by distance. We are going to mark them on the map as well as show a full list including ranking. read more...

submitted by BobStroggBobStrogg(1033) 5 days, 8 hours ago

Way back in 2009, the MVC Futures assembly introduced “strongly-typed action helpers”. They allowed you to render links using lambda expressions pointing directly to the actions on your controller, rather than using strings. Here's an alternative implementation that aims to resolve some of the performance issues they had. read more...

A XAML Guy digs into ASP.NET MVC4 (Part 1 of ?)(michaelcrump.net)

submitted by mbcrumpmbcrump(1034) 1 month ago

Introduction Through and through I love XAML. I love building and working with SL, WPF, WP7, and Windows 8 XAML Metro Apps. But one thing that I’m aiming for is to have an understanding of other web applications frameworks (MVC in particular). Mainly for two reasons, to become better informed and for my passion of helping customers of Telerik to find suitable web solutions (be it Silverlight, WebForms, MVC, etc). I am not brand new to MVC as I have worked with it before, but I feel that it is time for me start “from scratch” and document my experience. As I’ve said many times before this blog was created for me as a quick reminder of how I did something. If anyone benefited from reading what I wrote then that was just a bonus. If you already know MVC then you won’t get much out of this series. If you are a XAML person, and want to see what the other side looks like then stick around. I’m sure I’ll make plenty of mistakes but hopefully we can learn together. read more...
