I’ve used a helper method that searches all loaded Assemblys for a Type matching the specified name. Even though in my code only one Type result was expected it supports multiple. I verify that only one result is returned every time I used it and suggest you do the same. /// <summary> /// Gets a … Read more
This is indeed confusing jargon; we couldn’t come up with anything better. A lambda expression is the catch-all term for any of these: x => M(x) (x, y) => M(x, y) (int x, int y) => M(x, y) x => { return M(x); } (x, y) => { return M(x, y); } (int x, int … Read more
To read a text file one line at a time you can do like this: using System.IO; using (var reader = new StreamReader(fileName)) { string line; while ((line = reader.ReadLine()) != null) { // Do stuff with your line here, it will be called for each // line of text in your file. } } … Read more
After installing the EntityFramework.SqlServerCompact nuget package, check that your app.config contains the following (as per @ErikEJ’s comment above): <providers> <provider invariantName=”System.Data.SqlClient” type=”System.Data.Entity.SqlServer.SqlProviderServices, EntityFramework.SqlServer” /> <provider invariantName=”System.Data.SqlServerCe.4.0″ type=”System.Data.Entity.SqlServerCompact.SqlCeProviderServices, EntityFramework.SqlServerCompact” /> </providers> (You can leave the line for SqlClient even though you don’t really need it.)
How about using a flag? foreach(var item in items) { bool flag = false; foreach(var otheritem in otheritems) { if (!double.TryParse(otheritem)) { flag = true; break; } } if(flag) continue; DoStuff(); }
Yes, it is too slow. I ran into this problem several years ago while developing Paint.NET (right from the start, actually, and it was rather frustrating!). Rendering performance was abysmal, as it was always proportional to the size of the bitmap and not the size of the area that it was told to redraw. That … Read more
Assuming program is in the executing assembly, they should both return the same value. However, typeof(program).Assembly should have better performance, since Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly() does a stack walk. In a micro benchmark on my machine, the former took about 20ns, while the latter was 30x slower at about 600ns. If you control all the code I think … Read more
You are asking the right questions. A. It is definitely not appropriate to create this dependencies inside each action method. One of the main features of MVC is the ability to separate concerns. By loading up your controller with these dependencies, you are making the controller for thick. These should be injected into the controller. … Read more
UTC is effectively the new name for GMT. It has very minor differences, but none that will impact you in that scenario. Servy’s comment is completely wrong saying GMT includes daylight savings. That’s a different timezone called BST that the UK moves to from GMT over summer.
Configure the routes as below. The {param} is optional (use if you need): routes.MapHttpRoute( name: “childapi”, routeTemplate: “api/Parent/{id}/Child/{param}”, defaults: new { controller = “Child”, param = RouteParameter.Optional } ); routes.MapHttpRoute( name: “DefaultApi”, routeTemplate: “api/{controller}/{id}”, defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional } ); Then call the child APi as /api/Parent/1/child The parent can be called simple … Read more
