Communication between two usercontrols using Event Aggregator in SL(dotplusnet.blogspot.com)

submitted by kranthigullapalli(60) 1 year, 8 months ago

I found many posts in the asp.net, silverlight.net fourms regarding communication between user-controls, so i thought to blog a bit about communication between user-controls using Event Aggregator in silverlight which i found is the best way to communicate. The main advantage for using an event aggregator to communicate between user-controls is, it removes the tight coupling between a publisher and a subscriber, by which a publisher/subscriber can evolve independently. Pre-requisites for understanding this blog post is to have a bit understanding of Event Aggregator. read more...

Subsonic 3 released(web2asp.net)

submitted by sedgey(1728) 2 years, 10 months ago

Just read Rob Conery’s Blog and saw that Subsonic 3 is now available for download. For those unfamiliar with Subsonic it really is the ONLY no BS ORM out there, in fact it is so easy to get up and running that it is easy to forget that you ever set it up in the first place. The whole Subsonic ethic is to remove the hoops that other ORM’s have you jump through and essentially to get you home earlier. read more...

Asp.Net vs php : Speed Comparison(naspinski.net)

submitted by naspinski(610) 2 years, 11 months ago

Why is the myth that php is faster than Asp.Net so prevalent? Asp.Net is faster than php, here are the facts. So many times I have heard php pushers claim that php is so much faster than Asp.Net and that Asp.Net is clunky and slow. The most annoying part is that everything I have read (that is not factless opinion), and I mean everything, says that this is wrong; but for some reason, this myth is widely accepted. It has become a religious argument that ignores the facts... read more...

LINQ to SQL is NOT dead!(jonkruger.com)

submitted by david_holland(605) 2 years, 11 months ago

Ever since Microsoft announced that the Entity Framework was their ORM of choice, people everywhere have been saying, “LINQ to SQL is dead!” A lot of people feel like they’re not allowed to use LINQ to SQL anymore and that they have to use Entity Framework instead. In fact, LINQ to SQL is not only alive and well, Microsoft has even announced LINQ to SQL improvements in .NET 4.0, including finally adding using ITable<T> for tables instead of Table<T>, which makes it much easier to test. Combine that with this open source tool that will create an IDataContext interface for you and you’re on your way to testable LINQ to SQL. So no, LINQ to SQL is not dead!! read more...

Linq-to-SQL vs Linq-to-Entities : Revisited(naspinski.net)

submitted by naspinski(610) 3 years ago

After 2 months of nothing but L2E, I feel I can give a decent comparison. Linq-to-Entities is fully capable and can do almost everything Linq-to-SQL can do, it just takes a bit more code some times; the almost is for multiple database utilization. L2E is a great ORM, but many of us were spoiled with L2S, so it is now up to Microsoft to live up to the expectations that they put out for us with this framework that they are deprecating. I hope and assume it will become a superior ORM, but that is in Microsoft's hands now; for the time being, it is not. read more...
