New Post: Installation guide/Getting started

jasonatkins — Thu, 24 May 2012 09:14:52 GMT

I am also having problems building the lastest solution for VS2010. nuget install is exiting with code 1. I have installed EL 5, Code Contracts and ASP.NETMVC3. I only need to use NSK for an example of WPF. So can I remove all of the "NSK.Web.OnlineStore.*" presentation projects?

New Post: Repository - UnityOfWork - with multiple DB

Berzy — Wed, 02 May 2012 15:54:07 GMT

Hi, I am "playing" with Repository/UnityOfWork, with the help of the source code from this website...

I don't know how to handle a real life example: multiple db.

If my application has to connect to db1 for users and db2 for other info, how I can manage this using Repository / Uow?

Every example I found was related to one db only

Thanks!

Berzy — Mon, 12 Mar 2012 10:18:55 GMT

Hi,

I am applying what is into the book/examples to a real life project (that need a serious refactoring, btw)

well, I am still puzzled about how to handle multiple db connections... e.i.: I have to make an application that use 5 db connections, each one could be of a different technology (mysql ecc). Some object are in one db some other are in another (example are users on legacy db and my application that run on another db)

How I can handle this?

I have used this schema (and looks like working) but I am not sure that is correct:

web.config, appsettings: one provvider and one factory per connection

each dataprovider has its connectionstring.

each Zenatek.SmartPrint.Data.XXXXX has a namespace for each connection (example: OracleUsersDataProvider)

finally I have different factory for each database, so I can set the correct connection string.

New Post: need help with webservices

Berzy — Fri, 09 Mar 2012 16:37:09 GMT

yes, it is a little out of topic, but, well, you guys are the best out there :)

This is my problem: I have used the nsk kit (trying to learn something), I work with vs 2008, so I used some old version (nsk-83577).

This only to give some contest.

My problem is: I have a webservice, I want it to load a lot of data (i.e. getAll() method from service layer, nice, it works) and to serialize it to the caller. Here are my problems: since the objects loaded are complex (object with attribute as list of objects, with overrides and inheritance) I got errors:

Member IperUtente.Settori of type System.Collections.Generic.List`1[Zenatek.SmartPrint.IperSettore] hides base class member Utente.Settori of type System.Collections.Generic.List`1[Zenatek.SmartPrint.Settore].

This to name one, but I also had to remove all reference to interfaces (IList)... So, there is a way to send comlpex data without becoming crazy?? (like dto? )

New Post: Help with vs 2008 source (build 83577)

Berzy — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 13:37:55 GMT

Hi all,

I am learning/working with the version in subject. I am very new to most stuff in this code... And reading the book helps, but, well... now I am stuck.

The software I am doing have to work with different clients, so what I was thinking to achieve is to change the db mappers using a variable in config.

I am planning to use a factory/builder approach somewhere, but I am not sure what is best:

The SqlServerDataContext? The Helper? I am doing it wrong and there is an inversion of control magic that can do the trick??

New Post: Build #95118 Error parsing xaml

paolorunchi — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 21:33:03 GMT

Hi, I checked out the latest build #95118 (comment: "removed vs2008 branch"). Launching the ManagedDesigns.Nsk.Backoffice.Windows.UI as Start Up project, i obtain the error:

'The invocation of the constructor on type 'ManagedDesigns.Nsk.Backoffice.Windows.UI.ViewModel.ViewModelLocator' that matches the specified binding constraints threw an exception.' Line number '12' and line position '10'

Someone else has this error? What do you think it can be?

Thank you.

New Post: Older Version?

daviddesloovere — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 08:45:17 GMT

Hey loneranger,

You can download all code from the 'source code' page. There is nothing on the downloads page, as you already know probably.

On the bottom of 'source page' is a pager, which allows you to go back in time to previous Change Set thus enabling you to download a version from 2008 fex.

Good luck.

New Post: Older Version?

Loneranger — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 20:00:47 GMT

Hello,

The book "Architecting Applications for the Enterprise" shows in its appendix a NSK project organized by Data, Business and Presentation folders.

Is there a place where I can download this version of the NSK project?

Thank you.

Andrea,

Thanks for your reply. I just read your book over the summer and love how you and Dino bring together all of the concepts and technologies to give an overall picture of where things fit in.

I am mostly self-taught and work as a team of 1, but I'm eager to make my solutions more layered, maintainable and extensible. So far, most of what I have made has been Windows Forms applications. Are the concepts captured in the MVP UI's still applicable and considered best practices today for Windows Forms? Are they usable for WPF or is MVVM going to be the way to go?

Thanks again for your wonderful book and especially for this project which really helps bring the concepts of layered solutions and patterns to life.

Rick

Hi Rick, that project is no longer supported: we are working instead on a backoffice based on "MVVM on WPF", but it's still only an early preview, so I do not recommend to bother with it at the time. As of today, we are concentrating on the MVC powered UIs, with with you could start having a look at the solution.

I've updated the readme.txt file in order to show the urls from which to download ASP.NET MVC 3 and the code contracts toolkit. Other toolkits (Moq, SharpTestsEx, Unity, ...) references are managed by means of nuget, so they should work "out of the box" provided you load the project on a computer connected to the Internet, so to have nuget downloading the toolkits at compile time by means of a pre build action. Just download the latest changeset, open it in VS2010, compile it and let me know.

Have you found anything yet? I am looking for the same information...

New Post: Getting Started...

msmithcodeplex — Thu, 17 Nov 2011 22:39:51 GMT

I am a big-time newbie to Visual Studio and C# (a recent convert from Delphi development). I have downloaded checkin 94085.

The readme states the below as the build requirements:

In order to build the solution, it is required to install:

- Visual Studio 2010

- Microsoft Enterprise Library v5

- Microsoft DevLabs Code Contracts extensions

I found and downloaded the following NuGet package and installed it:

Install-Package EnterpriseLibrary.Source

What do I need to do for the "DevLabs Code Contracts extensions"? I found the http://ccextensions.codeplex.com/ project and downloaded it, but I can't build it either. I have ordered Microsoft® .NET: Architecting Applications for the Enterprise by Dino Esposito, but have not received it in the mail yet.

Should I just wait until I get the book? Will all become clear?

I am currently getting the below error when attempting to build the ManagedDesigns.Nsk.OnlineStore solution:

Error 1 The type or namespace name 'Mvc' does not exist in the namespace 'System.Web' (are you missing an assembly reference?) C:\AppDev\nsk\Baseline\src\ManagedDesigns.Nsk.Web\Mvc\Rss20Result.cs 5 18 ManagedDesigns.Nsk.Web

Any help would be appreciated! I don't even know if I'm on the right track!

Is there any document to help with installation of all the third party tools and their correct version like MVC, NUnit, Unity etc?

I am having the most difficulty with running the MVC application. I am newbie.

New Post: Help getting started

habakkuk4 — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 19:53:52 GMT

Hello and thanks for creating this project.

I have read "Architecting Applications for the Enterprise" and will likely give it a second read to make sure I have digested it all.

I have downloaded the latest build of NSK (nsk-93269). I have gotten over some of the first "humps" (EL 5.0, Code Contract Extensions, etc., installing Northwind sample, MVC 2.0)

I am getting some persistent behaviour and am wondering if there is something I'm doing wrong. I've listed 3 examples below, but what I'm really looking for is this:

Which version(s) of all the Presentation Layers are the most complete?
Which DAL is the most complete?

1. I set "ManagedDesigns.Nsk.Windows.UI as the startup project. I then built the project and ran it.

• I opened the "Customers" and clicked on "Add".
• I filled out the fields with example data and pressed "Apply"
• I get a NullReferenceException in CustomerDetailPresenter.cs.

When the following line is executed, newCustomer.MainPostalAddress is null:

newCustomer.MainPostalAddress.Address = this.view.Address

Should there be a line like newCustomer.MainPostalAddress = new PostalAddress() ?

2. Also using ManagedDesigns.Nsk.Windows.UI:

• On the Customers form, I selected the first customer in the left listbox (Alfreds Futterkiste on my system).
• I clicked the "Edit" button. On the Customer form I changed the name to Alfreds Futterkisted.
• I clicked "Apply".
• I get a dialog stating

A problem occurred while updating "Maria Anders".
item
Parameter name: The specified customer does not exist.

It looks like the underlying repository (ManagedDesigns.Nsk.Data.EF.Poco.Repositories) is hard-coded to return false in "public bool Contains(T item)".

Should I be using a different repository? How might I do that?

3. When I click on "Run all tests in solution", 61 tests pass, 21 tests fail. I assume they are all meant to pass. One example:

• "CompanyName_Cannot_Be_Null_For_Registration" Error Message: Assert.IsFalse failed.
• I took a quick look at the code for this

Customer c = Customer.CreateNewCustomer("41", "Managed Designs", "Andrea Saltarello");
c.Name = null;
Assert.IsFalse(c.IsValidForRegistration);

I looked in the App.Config of "ManagedDesigns.NSK.Domain.Tests". Under the Rule Set "IsValidForRegistration", I did not see a Validation Target for Property "Name".

I tried adding one, perhaps I didn't do it right. This test still fails.

Again, I understand that this is a work in progress. I just want to make sure I understand what's going on in this solution as it is quite a bit for me to digest all at once.

Thanks,

Rick

Hi Chris,

to my knowledge, there shouldn't be references to EL 4.1 in changeset 89744; can you target me to the wrong reference?

thanks,

New Post: 89744 Referencing EntLib 4.1??

doktorHallam — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 02:28:30 GMT

Hi,

I just pulled a copy of the 89744 revision and it is referencing Microsoft Enterprise Library v4.1. I was under the impression that the newer builds referenced v5.0 (http://nsk.codeplex.com/discussions/241508) and so 5.0 is what I have installed.

Do I need to replace 5.0 with 4.1 or did I somehow get an incorrect source revision? (Or perhaps I am overlooking something else altogether??)

TIA for any assistance/clarification with this.
