New CodePlex project: MvcSiteMap – ASP.NET MVC sitemap provider(blog.maartenballiauw.be)

submitted by maartenbamaartenba(5845) 3 years, 2 months ago

If you have been using the ASP.NET MVC framework, you possibly have been searching for something like the classic ASP.NET sitemap. After you've played with it, you even found it useful! But not really flexible and easy to map to routes and controllers. To tackle that, last year, somewhere in August, I released a proof-of-concept sitemap provider for the ASP.NET MVC framework on my blog. The blog post on sitemap provider I released back then has received numerous comments, suggestions, code snippets, … Together with Patrice Calve, we’ve released a new version of the sitemap provider on CodePlex: MvcSiteMap. This time I’ll not dive into implementation details, but provide you with some of the features our sitemap provider erm… provides. read more...

You're Doing It Wrong(codinghorror.com)

submitted by spoulsonspoulson(327) 3 years, 3 months ago

Templating tends to break down because it forces you to treat code and markup as two different and fundamentally incompatible things. We spend all our time awkwardly switching between markup-land and code-land using escape sequences. They're always fighting each other -- and us. read more...

Automatic/Convention-based mapping entities with Fluent NHibernate(blog.jagregory.com)

submitted by chadmyerschadmyers(840) 3 years, 4 months ago

James Gregory has a 4-part post on the "auto-mapping" features of Fluent NHibernate. Basically, Fluent NHibernate can automatically map most of your entities based on the conventions you specify and can apply other conventions such as table names, foreign-key constraint naming, etc. This is the first post of the 4, the others are linked as Trackbacks at the bottom. After reading these 4, you should have a better idea of how to get started using the conventional mapping features of Fluent NHibernate. read more...

On the A* Search Algorithm(raine-tech.com)

submitted by jrcalzadajrcalzada(70) 3 years, 5 months ago

I recently made a post about two generic delegates introduced in version 3.5 of the .NET Framework. As an example, I mentioned an implementation of the A* search algorithm. For those not familiar with the algorithm, A* (pronounce A Star) is one, if not the, most popular search algorithms in artificial intelligence. Generally, the algorithm visits nodes in a graph, taking certain aspects into consideration, until it finds a node that meets a specific goal condition or until there are no more nodes left. The algorithm is, usually, optimal and complete, which means it will always find the least expensive solution. This, however, can change depending on certain factors I will get into later on in the post. read more...
