Unity package isn’t a good example because you should use it only in one place called Composition Root. And Composition Root should be as close as it can be to application entry point. In your example it is CompanyName.SomeSolution.Application Apart from that, where I work now, exactly the same problem appears. And what I see, …
There is no such access modifier: the closest modifier is internal, but the unit of protection is the assembly in which the class resides, not its namespace. One could argue that it is possible to achieve similar level of control using internal, because both kinds of restriction keep outsiders from accessing the implementation details of …
This can now be done with .Net Core RC2. Here is how: Ensure your .Net RC2 projects’ project.json is configured to include the relevant .net framework. For example this section references .Net 4.51 which can be reference by any of the frameworks equal or above this version: Example: “frameworks”: { “net451”: { }, “netstandard1.5”: { …
Booting my computer this morning I faced the exact problem for a project I am working on. I had some ideas which lead to the following design – and comments would be more than awesome. Unfortunately the design suggested by Josh isn’t possible, as I have to work with a remote SQL server and can’t …
.NET does not have enforced (“checked”) exceptions like java. The intellisense might show this information, if the developer has added a /// <exception…/> block – but ultimately more exceptions can happen than you expect (OutOfMemoryException, ThreadAbortException, TypeLoadException, etc can all happen fairly unpredictably). In general, you should have an idea of what things are likely …
Tuples originated in functional programming. In (purely) functional programming, everything is immutable by design – a certain variable only has a single definition at all times, as in mathematics. The .NET designers wisely followed the same principle when integrating the functional style into C#/.NET, despite it ultimately being a primarily imperative (hybrid?) language. Note: Though …
When authorizing access to a resource or the ability to run some code, it is not sufficient merely to know which user is authorizing the action, but under what role they are authorizing it. Think of this as being roughly equivalent to when you elevate a shell: the shell is now running under a different …
Sometimes you really just want to represent a “local” (timezone unaware) date and time rather than an instant in time. To be honest it’s more often useful to represent just a time – e.g. “wake me up at 8am, regardless of timezone” – but date and time could be useful too. I agree that for …
They’re identical. UTF8Encoding inherits Encoding. Therefore, you can access all of the static members declared by Encoding through the UTF8Encoding qualifier. In fact, you can even write ASCIIEncoding.UTF8, and it will still work. It will compile to identical IL, even in debug mode. I would recommend using Encoding.UTF8, as it shows what’s going on more …
IComparable is for ordering comparisons. Either use IEquatable instead, or just use the static System.Object.Equals method. The latter has the benefit of also working if the object is not a primitive type but still defines its own equality comparison by overriding Equals. object originalValue = property.GetValue(originalObject, null); object newValue = property.GetValue(changedObject, null); if (!object.Equals(originalValue, newValue)) …
