Ninject is for dependency injection, which is a good practice but does not address your current need.
Gerry suggested having a look at EF, and I would personally agree. You can bind EF to a Stored procedure, if that's where you heart is, or to tables. You can also have multiple database contexts with multiple connection strings. I would also advise that you take a look at it.

Nathan,
I agree that doing the database joins from entity framework is the correct way to go. Now, the biggest problem is the stored procedures not only do table joins but also access several database views. The relational design of these databases is crazy. I have a team that are writing all of the database stored procedures but what I can't find is an example of a SQL stored procedure doing the actual database joins for the entity framework model. Also, how would the additional views play into this? I do see how it is done directly in Entity Framework but if someone has an example of the the SQL stored procedure entity join syntax that would be very helpful.

You're looking at it incorrectly.
When you handle objects in Entity Framework, the underlying SQL is abstracted and, frankly, immaterial. You can treat a table, SP, or view in exactly the same manner, they're mapped out in the .edmx file. Since you're clearly using Database first, you'll want a look at Entity Framework Relationships - EF Designer[^]. In Entity Framework there aren't really "Joins" (since that's more of a database concept) there are "Associations" (as a more OOP concept) that are defined in your application, and parsed into joins by Entity Framework when querying the data source.
What this allows you to do is ignore the relational structure of the database and implement your own within the confines of your application. It doesn't change the database itself, just how your application looks at it. The best part is that it doesn't lean on the database to provide those details; ie the implementation of a store procedure has no impact on the functionality of Entity Framework.
For my money, it's generally best to use tables as a data source, but that's not always possible. In my mind it gives the purest look at the current state of the data and avoids some of the "gotchas" that can creep up when calling code (functions or SPs) rather than the data itself, or the holes that are often created by views. As a final caveat, tables are the only clean way to write transactions to the database. You can use Functions or Stored Procedures for that, but the implementation and business rules are dependent on the DBA, and I'm not a giant fan of handing off application critical items to a third party; at least in a data-driven, enterprise system. If those are your only options, though, you can work with them seamlessly.
Regardless of the underlying method used to derive the data, it is consumed in exactly the same way in an application context. You will have a collection of entities, defined as classes in your application, mapped to the database by your .edmx file, and instantiated as called by Entity Framework.
So the short answer (that I meandered greatly from) is that it doesn't matter what a Stored Procedures looks like or how it is invoked, as long as it exposes the data that you need in your application, to include the data that you need to form concrete Associations.

Nathan,
I think I understand and was making things more complicated then they are. Because the stored procedure uses a main database to pull back the data then I only need to map to that one database an not worry about the other databases or views that the stored procedure it pulls from. I am sorry for all of the posts back and forth I have causes but now I have learned something I did not know before. Thank you very much!

How to use Datarelation to Create Menu in c# asp.net?
|
|
|
|
|
There is no reason to have to use a DataRelation. Where are you stuck?
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.
|
|
|
|
|
actually, I have to create menu dynamically using data of two tables... pls guide ....
|
|
|
|
|
It all depends on what kind of menu you want. I'd suggest finding an example online and then implementing it. There are tons of different ways of doing it.

thank you.......

Your code is vulnerable to SQL Injection[^]. NEVER use string concatenation to build a SQL query. ALWAYS use a parameterized query.
Everything you wanted to know about SQL injection (but were afraid to ask) | Troy Hunt[^]
How can I explain SQL injection without technical jargon? | Information Security Stack Exchange[^]
Query Parameterization Cheat Sheet | OWASP[^]
Also, you should never connect to your database as sa; that's an administrator account which could be used to totally destroy your server, or even your network. Your application should connect as a specific user which has only the permissions required by your application.
And if that's your real sa password that you've just posted to a public forum, you should change it immediately. And this time, pick something secure!
Rather than hard-coding your connection string every time you open a connection, store it in the <connectionStrings> section of your web.config file. That way, when you need to change it, you only have to do it in one place.
Your SqlConnection and SqlCommand objects should be wrapped in using blocks to ensure that their resources are always cleaned up:
using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(WebConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["connectionString"].ConnectionString))
{
...
}
It's generally considered a good idea to move data-access code out of your controller and into a separate "repository" class. That makes it much easier to test the data-access code without having to hit the controller, and to test your controller without touching the database.

Has anyone tried to use the Metro-UI-CSS framework with ASP.NET 5.0 in Visual Studio Community 2015?
If so, were you successful? What parts of Metro-UI did you use? Did they work straight out of the box or did you have to add extra code to make them work?
My own experience, which was a very simple test, did not work. I was testing the "slide" capability of a tile where the text changes by sliding down when the cursor is placed within the tile. The initial condition displayed my text at the chosen font size. When the cursor was placed over the tile, the text slid down displaying the new text at my chosen font size, but it also displayed the text at the default font size over the top, thus making it unreadable.
In addition, the footer section, which should be displayed underneath the body section, was placed within the body section of the page; something I have never experienced before.

Isn't this effectively the same question you asked back in March[^]?

Yes it is, to some extent. I have now tried Metro-UI-CSS and found it to be buggy. I am now asking if anyone else has tried it and were they successful or not.
It seems to me that something fundamental is wrong if the classic footer section is placed inside the body section.

All I could see that you are using the same SelectList for Gender dropdown. What is your error? Unless you specify exactly what issue you are facing we cannot help you.
Are you expecting the dropdown showing the correct gender by default while Edit view in the page?
|
|
|
|
|
im expecting what is the data(male or Female) on edit field that should be come on dropdown list..
|
|
|
|
|
I would suggest you implement the same logic as you have done for Dept dropdown. GEnerate the select list in the action and set the selected gender in the select list before sending to View.

Hi to Everyone
What I want to do is read from a database a list of already entered data which has a date as part of the record, I am fine with that, then using the standard ASP controls + free AJAX controls or other free controls where there is no caveat to their use.
Display in a calendar control or the like a standard month style layout but with all the previously used/ selected days highlighted in some way so the user knows what dates have been previously used.
So with the current date being 09/May/2015 (UK Time) if data had been previously entered against
(02/05/2016), (05/05/2016), (08/05/2016)
Those days would be highlighted in the calendar control or similar
I could of course provide a side list of previously used dates in a separate control but where is the challenge in that.
I am not a seasoned ASP person my background is desktop development in VB3, VB5, VB6 VB.Net and C# and T-SQL so I know a thing or two about programming just not the ASP controls or what they can accomplish.
Thanks to all who reads this

Most calendars support what you are trying to do. What calendar control are you using? JQuery , that sort ?

Good day
We have a asp.net website high traffic website. When a user registers we store the ip address i that user,when the login we store all ip addreses he used and we have a blocking module which blocks a username and all the ip's associated with that username. So that those who want to create other accounts from same location will be blocked. This morning we had few incidents where we needed to block the fake user. Can anyone scrutinise my approach and there is anything to my approach that i can add to make it rock solid i would appreciate. We also have a mobile app which also does the same in terms of Imei and it blocks the phones which is easy.
Vuyiswa Maseko,

You can ask Chris how hard it is to block the same user, based on data from some previously banned account...
As you may already know IP banning has it disadvantages, but to be honest, there is no really reliable method to block new users based on old data...
No IP address, no email, no user-name and nothing other will for sure connect one account to an other, so always will miss someone bad, why probably block someone innocent...
So with all the sorrow - there is no 'rock solid' solution, but bad and worst only...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Unfortunately it is very hard to identify the users using IP addresses because for some ISPs all customers might have similar IP address. The only way of doing this is installing small programs in the browser and getting their MAC address which is unique for all users but which is not possible without user permission.
