IronJSMVC: Script ASP.NET MVC in JavaScript using IronJS(pietschsoft.com)

submitted by pwhe23pwhe23(972) 3 days, 10 hours ago

Personally, I enjoy writing much of my applications using a statically typed language such as C#. However, I would really prefer to be able to write UI logic and script certain parts of my applications using a dynamic language if I could. I was thinking about this and the following question came to mind: What would it be like to write an ASP.NET MVC application entirely using JavaScript? read more...

MVC Strongly-Typed Action Helpers - They're Back!(chriscavanagh.wordpress.com)

submitted by BobStroggBobStrogg(1033) 4 days, 8 hours ago

Way back in 2009, the MVC Futures assembly introduced “strongly-typed action helpers”. They allowed you to render links using lambda expressions pointing directly to the actions on your controller, rather than using strings. Here's an alternative implementation that aims to resolve some of the performance issues they had. read more...

Using ASP.NET MVC 4, ApiControllers and SQL Server 2012(galratner.com)

submitted by galratnergalratner(334) 4 days, 17 hours ago

ASP.NET MVC continues to innovate and in its current version (4) it offers support for Web APIs. Today we are going to examine a real life scenario of using Web APIs along with MVC 4 as we are utilizing the Google Earth plug-in to mark a defined area and SQL Server 2012 geography type to help us persist and calculate GIS data. In our example we are going to mark an area on the globe using a polygon, calculate the center of the area, find all of the coffee shops closest to the center of the area and arrange them by distance. We are going to mark them on the map as well as show a full list including ranking. read more...

EF 4.1+ POCO, Repository and Specification Pattern Framework(huyrua.wordpress.com)

submitted by wladekwladek(38) 5 days, 23 hours ago

I've been playing around with Code First EF implementations for awhile now and by far the best implementation I've seen is a framework by Huy Rua. It has the following functionality baked in: True Separation of Concerns for entities (no need for a data annotations dependency). A Generic Repository. This should do the trick for 80% of your standard CRUD operations without the need for repo's per entity. Supports multiple DbContext's and builds them dynamically. And finally a straightforward Specification pattern implementation. I use it as a base data layer for all my projects. read more...

Windows 8 Metro: Something about application life-cycle(www.silverlightshow.net)

submitted by KMillerrKMillerr(2072) 5 days, 23 hours ago

Also if currently you are probably running Windows 8 on a virtual machine or luckily on a computer, there is not any doubt that this new operating system and especially the metro-style interface is dedicated to touch enabled devices like tablets. The plans of Microsoft infact include the new WOA keywork where the acronym stands for Windows On ARM that is the aim of making available this interface on a wide set of mobile devices that currently embrace this successful processor architecture. Running on a tablet does not only imply a different input interface like the touch screen, but also it requires a careful use of system resources that are not always large on this kind of device. This is the reason why metro-style applications have an application lifecycle that is mostly similar to the Windows Phone than of classical desktop apps. read more...
