Unity - Dependency Injection and Inversion of Control Container(dotnethitman.spaces.live.com)

submitted by misbaharefin(845) 3 years, 8 months ago

Dependency injection is a programming technique to reduce component coupling. Dependency injection is also commonly known as “inversion of control” or IoC or sometimes as The Hollywood Principle - "Don’t call us, we’ll call you”. The goal of dependency injection is to separate the concerns of how a dependency is obtained from the core concerns of a boundary. This improves reusability by enabling components to be supplied with dependencies which may vary depending on context. read more...

Implementing a Repository and Specificaiton pattern using Linq(codeinsanity.com)

submitted by rao.ritesh(230) 3 years, 9 months ago

In my previous post I put down some thoughts on the Repository and Specification patterns and in the end said that with the introduction of Linq and the growing popularity of ORM frameworks and their support for Linq, it’s time to look back at these two patterns and see how we can leverage Linq to simplify the patterns and make them infrastructure agnostic. read more...

Specification Pattern and Lambdas(ang3lfir3.wordpress.com)

submitted by ang3lfir3(660) 3 years, 9 months ago

While working on my current project I decided that I had a need to use the Specification Pattern . After finding a clean implementation by Jeff Perrin I set to work creating the specifications that I needed. I quickly realized that we were going to end up having a ton of specifications and sometimes they would only apply to very special cases. Other times they would be very broad cases and they needed to be even more composable than even the fluid interface implemented in Jeff’s implementation wasn’t going to be enough. It after all still required me to create a concrete implementation for each specification, no matter how minuscule it might be. This is the part where I thought to my self that since i was really only creating implementations for a single method that I could just write a LambdaSpecification and be able to use this for all the special cases I had. read more...

What is Old is New Again: Functional Programming(explodingcoder.com)

submitted by spoulson(327) 3 years, 11 months ago

One of the greatest ideals of high level programming is the idea of code reuse. In the old days, this was only ever done using functions or subroutines, depending on the language. In later days, this was performed as object oriented design. Every language seems to accomplish these ideals in various ways to accomplish a similar goal. read more...
