c# - Is my approach to Winforms coding old-school -

-

the project i'm working on quite large , have framework developed building simple ui screens easily. 2 fundamental types have search (search parameters + grid of results) , detail (a set of editors populated model object).

the application c# .net winforms.

in detail have following process.

  • load - populate edit controls based on appropriate model object. invoked prior detail being shown

user clicks ok

  • validate - validates detail ensure consistent
  • accept - copy updated control values model

this works nicely simple stuff in more complex cases i've noticed perhaps above approach not smoothest.

the more complex cases mentioned above when detail represents model object , there grid embedded in detail holds 'child' objects can added , removed. typically want launch child detail , pass in parent model object, not populated/up date @ point because happens when ok clicked. find myself working round in annoying fashion leads me following question.

at high-level, accepted/best practice approach detail screens describe copy values model object when control changed, rather waiting until ok clicked?

if so, in winforms app, best way achieve this? found articles mentioning control.databindings it's not ideal because of lack of compile-time safety on binding. i've read wpf has binding support, unfortunately, i'm not using wpf.

for winforms suggest model-view-presenter pattern. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc188690.aspx

magically formatted comments change reported line number of javascript errors in browsers; this: //@line n "f" n line number , f file name. unfortunately, //@line appears ungoogleable. know there documentation on feature, , browsers support it?

c# - Is it possible to remove an existing registration from Autofac container builder? -

-
something along lines: builder.registertype<mytype>().as<itype>(); builder.registertype<mytype2>().as<itype>(); builder.deregistertype<mytype>().as<itype>() var container = builder.build(); var types = container.resolve<ienumerable<itype>>(); assert.istrue(types.count == 1); assert.istrue(types[0].gettype == typeof(mytype2)); scenario: go through bunch of assemblies , go register types want make sure have 1 implementation of given type. need before create container. track on own nice if autofac me bit. this cannot done directly using containerbuilder , unless start on new one. mind you, having first built container should able construct new container filtering away unwanted types , reusing registrations first container. this: ... var container = builder.build(); builder = new containerbuilder(); var components = container.componentregistry.registrations .where(cr => cr.activator.limittype != typ...

php - Mysql PK and FK char(36) vs int(10) -

-
i have read mysql can handle indexes , searches better if tables keys integers rather char(36) uuid's. is worth converting int(10)? note: use 1 server , have have plans use multiple databases concurrently therefore removing 1 of big reasons using uuid. our tables innodb if makes difference. thanks in advance. usually rdbms can handle integer keys pk more efficient, other datatypes. reason how build index column, yes: long dont require string (or other typed) keys, should use integers. however: char(36) , int(10) far away being equal, because int(10) much smaller, char(36). dont know, if require many different keys, should keep in mind. update, complete last paragraph: int(10) 32-bit, char(36) 36 - ^byte^ (= 288-bit). not mean, int consumes less space, means, char(36) has 4 times more different keys.
