Implementing the Repository Pattern with Linq-to-Sql(codeproject.com)

submitted by powerrush(3873) 3 years, 11 months ago

The Repository Pattern, according to Martin Fowler, provides a "layer of abstraction over the mapping layer where query construction code is concentrated", to "minimize duplicate query logic". In practice it is usually a collection of data access services, grouped in a similar way to the domain model classes. By accessing repositories via interfaces the repository pattern helps to break the dependency between the domain model and data access code. This is invaluable for unit testing because the domain model can be isolated. read more...

submitted by powerrush(3873) 4 years, 6 months ago

This article is expected to: [1] Introduce patterns to you in a simple, human readable way [2] Train you how to really 'Apply' patterns (you can learn patterns easily, but to apply them to solve a problem, you need real design skills) [3] Provide you a fair idea regarding the contexts for applying the following patterns - Builder, Observer, Strategy and Decorator (well, they are few popular design patterns) [4] Demonstrate you how to apply the Observer pattern, to solve a design problem read more...

Design Patterns for ASP.NET (Part 1)(devx.com)

submitted by rimsystems(6119) 5 years, 2 months ago

or the past year or so, I've been involved in documenting frameworks that help developers write better code, and create applications that are more efficient and easier to test, debug, maintain, and extend. During that time, it has been interesting to see the continuing development of best-practice techniques and tools at one of the leading software companies in our industry. Most of the work was outside my usual sphere of ASP.NET and web development, concentrating mainly on Windows Forms applications built using .NET 2.0. This is an area where standard design patterns that have evolved over many years are increasingly being refined and put into practice. read more...
