Delegates

A delegate is a type that represents references to methods with a particular parameter list and return type.When you instantiate a delegate, you can associate its instance with any method with a compatible signature and return type. You can invoke (or call) the method through the delegate instance.

When and Why to use Delegates

A delegate can be seen as a placeholder for a/some method(s).

By defining a delegate, you are saying to the user of your class "Please feel free to put any method that match this signature here and it will be called each time my delegate is called".

Typical use is of course events. All the OnEventX delegate to the methods the user defines.

Delegates are useful to offer to the user of your objects some ability to customize their behaviour. Most of the time, you can use other ways to achieve the same purpose and I do not believe you can ever be forced to create delegates. It is just the easiest way in some situations to get the thing done.

NHibernate QueryOver Class And Projection....

Introduction The ICriteria API is NHibernate's implementation of Query Object . NHibernate 3.0 introduces the QueryOver api, which combines the use of Extension Methods and Lambda Expressions (both new in .Net 3.5) to provide a statically typesafe wrapper round the ICriteria API. QueryOver uses Lambda Expressions to provide some extra syntax to remove the 'magic strings' from your ICriteria queries. So, for example: .Add(Expression.Eq("Name", "Smith")) becomes: .Where<Person>(p => p.Name == "Smith") With this kind of syntax there are no 'magic strings', and refactoring tools like 'Find All References', and 'Refactor->Rename' work perfectly. Note: QueryOver is intended to remove the references to 'magic strings' from the ICriteria API while maintaining it's opaqueness. It is not a LINQ provider; NHibernate 3.0 has a built-in

The Core Concepts of Angular -- Jithin CJ

I started to learn angular from 2016, I was very curious about the celibacy of this super hero. From my initial understanding is like, the power of angular is only limited on " html decoration "  But this JavaScript framework has the potential to re-define conventional html-css patterns . Modern browsers support for things like modules, classes, lambdas, generators, etc. These features fundamentally transform the JavaScript programming experience. But big changes aren't constrained merely to JavaScript. Web Components are on the horizon. The term Web Components usually refers to a collection of four related W3C specifications: Custom Elements - Enables the extension of HTML through custom tags.  HTML Imports - Enables packaging of various resources (HTML, CSS, JS, etc.).  Template Element - Enables the inclusion of inert HTML in a document.  Shadow DOM - Enables encapsulation of DOM and CSS.  Developers can create fully encapsulated (Shadow DOM) declar
