Dapper - a simple object mapper for .NetOfficial Github clone: https://github.com/SamSaffron/dapper-dot-net FeaturesDapper is a single file you can drop in to your project that will extend your IDbConnection interface. It provides 3 helpers: Execute a query and map the results to a strongly typed Listpublic static IEnumerable Query(this IDbConnection cnn, string sql, object param = null, SqlTransaction transaction = null, bool buffered = true)

" Castle DynamicProxy is a library for generating lightweight .NET proxies on the fly at runtime. Proxy objects allow calls to members of an object to be intercepted without modifying the code of the class. Both classes and interfaces can be proxied, however only virtual members can be intercepted. "

"Lurking on any machine that has Windows Scripting Host installed (virtually all machines these days, although scripting can be disabled), is a powerful Regular Expressions facility, the VBScript.RegExp scripting object. You can get to it from any COM client that supports the IDispatch interface. IDispatch, you'll recall, is COM's popular late-binding interface - it allows applications to use COM components without knowing anything about them at compile-time. In T-SQL, we get to IDispatch via the sp_OA stored procedures. Via a simple UDF, we can access the RegExp object as though it were part of T-SQL:"

F# is ideal for data-rich, concurrent and algorithmic development: "simple code to solve complex problems". F# is a simple and pragmatic programming language combining functional, object-oriented and scripting programming, and supports cross-platform environments including PC, Mac, and Linux. We'll provide the tutorials, resources and tools you'll need to begin working with F# right away.

"I've written before about one kind of memory leak the .Net Garbage Collector cannot protect against: those caused by event handlers keeping objects alive beyond their best-before date. Daniel Grunwald has a very comprehensive article on CodeProject explaining the problem in depth, and giving a number of solutions, some of which I've used in the past."

Hammock is a .NET CouchDB library modeled directly on NHibernate and strives for much of the same functionality while avoiding the vast complexity of mapping object data to a relational system.

" Are you tired of fighting with overly complex ORMs such as Entity Framework and NHibernate? Are you tired of poorly generated SQL or having to change your business objects to work with your ORM? Do you miss the power and performance of ADO.NET and SQL, but not the manual tedious work? If so FluentData might be the framework for you."

"Visual Studio 2012 comes with a lot of enhancements. One of the significant one is the Solution Explorer enhancement and it has many. Solution Explorer looks like a build from scratch. The new Solution Explorer is the combination of Object Browser, Class View, Find All References etc. Ideally you do not need to go to any other Window to work"

"I was astonished to be invited to what became the meeting that originated the Agile Manifesto because my work had always been based around building models. The Structured Development for Real-Time Systems trilogy with Paul Ward and the pair of Object-Oriented Analysis books with Sally Shlaer all focused on analysis and design, placing much less emphasis on the coding and testing favored by agile practitioners."

"In an earlier blog post, Creating or modifying Entity Framework EDMX files from code: an introduction to HuagatiEDMXTools.dll, I wrote about the EDMX file wrapper that is used by the Huagati DBML/EDMX Tools add-in for parsing, updating, creating, and writing EDMX files. HuagatiEDMXTools adds an easy to use object model on top of EDMX files (see documentation at http://huagati.com/edmxtools/help ), making it a lot easier to create/read/update EDMX files, and to write LINQ queries against Entity Framework 4 metadata. It also has a number of built-in queries and lookup functions that make it a breeze to work with Entity Framework 4 EDMX files from code."

"JustMock Free Edition is a developer productivity tool designed to make it easy to create mock objects.

"There can be a great difference in the performance of a particular routine in a test database, and in a fully loaded production system. When you hit performance problems in a database under load, and there is excessive locking and blocking, how can you determine exactly where the problems lie, in order to fix them? Read on..."

"This topic describes patterns that you can use to load related entities. Entity types can define navigation properties that represent associations in the data model. You can use these properties to load entities that are related to the returned entity by the defined association. When entities are generated based on the data model, navigation properties are generated for entities at both ends of an association. These navigation properties return either a reference on the "one" end of a one-to-one or many-to-one relationship or a collection on the "many" end of a one-to-many or many-to-many relationship. For more information, see Navigation Properties and Defining and Managing Relationships. "
