What is Microsoft waiting for providing a decent path API?(codebetter.com)

submitted by johnsheehan(4785) 3 years, 4 months ago

I was recently browsing the code source of Managed Extensibility Framework and realized that this future part of .NET 4, full of tricky and advanced ideas, was naively relying on strings to describe files and directories paths. It seems that the version 4 of .NET will miss the need for a descent path API. There is the class System.IO.Path but it is feature limited, full of flaws and pitfalls (to not say bugs) and it fosters users to encode their paths into raw strings. It seems to me that using strings to encode paths is as primitive as using String.IndexOf("<tag>") to parse some XML. read more...

Using JsonResult in ASP.NET MVC AJAX(nayyeri.net)

submitted by mosessaur(5424) 3 years, 5 months ago

In ASP.NET MVC you can write action methods that return a variety of types to be used in your views to obtain data for AJAX interactions. Most common types are string and ActionResult, but there is also an option called JsonResult which returns its values as JSON serialized data. The returned data can be used easily in client-side as appropriate. read more...

JavaScript And The rel Attribute(geekdaily.net)

submitted by justinbezanson(1555) 3 years, 5 months ago

Working in JavaScript is one of my favorite things to do. I love how dynamic the language is and how powerful it can be. This programming dream is often turned into a nightmare by varying browser implementations, blatant disregard for accepted Web Standards (I’m looking at you IE), and a host of other odd things that can pop up. read more...

Generic Repository(codebetter.com)

submitted by brandewinder(530) 3 years, 5 months ago

The purpose behind the repository pattern is to provide a layer of abstraction between your domain and data layer. For smaller projects, this typically isn't needed. However, larger projects can really benefit from a broker that specifically handles the back and forth between the two layers. With repositories your domain objects aren't burdened with infrastructure details and can therefore better focus on domain-specific behavior. read more...

Improve your jQuery - 25 excellent tips(tvidesign.co.uk)

submitted by beckelmw(2755) 3 years, 5 months ago

jQuery is awesome. I've been using it for about a year now and although I was impressed to begin with I'm liking it more and more the longer I use it and the more I find out about it's inner workings. I'd call myself an "intermediate" jQuery user and I thought some others out there could benefit from all the little tips, tricks and techniques I've learned over the past year. The article also ended up being a lot longer than I thought it was going to be so I'll start with a table of contents so you can skip to the bits you're interested in. read more...
