Honest Illusion : Creating an Entity Framework connection from another(honestillusion.com)

submitted by JamesCurran2(134) 1 year ago

Database connection strings used to be simple. Well, simple, once you learned the arcane syntax, But, at least they had stayed the same for about a decade.

.NET exceptions, error handling for the exceptional case(blog.typps.com)

submitted by alessandrokicks(195) 1 year, 1 month ago

The tip of the day consists of in making sure to use a try/catch block to trap individual exception types such as SqlException which is specific whereas Exception is more general. For instance, imagine you are connecting to a database, it's quite common to experience a connection failure that you might not expect.
