LINQ : Query expression vs Lambda Expression

All the time I was using LINQ on projects I was wondering whether there is a performance difference between query expression and lambda expression.

So I decided to dig into it. I wanted to examine MSIL for both of these situations. I wrote small class which has two methods. One is using query expression and the other one is using lambda.

code

I complied this code and got the dll and view the MSIL using ildasm.exe. This following picture will show you the MSIL of GetFirst() method.

m1

And this following picture will show you the MSIL of the GetSecond() method.

m2

Yes!!! you can see that there is no different between these 2 MSIL. Will there be a performance difference???

Exit a T-SQL Cursor When Condition is met

Have you ever wanted to exit from a cursor when a condition is met? I wanted to do it. So this is how I did it. DECLARE @Field1 AS INT DECLARE @Field2 AS INT DECLARE CursorName CURSOR READ_ONLY FOR SELECT Field1, Field2 FROM TableName OPEN CursorName FETCH NEXT FROM CursorName INTO @Field1, @Field2 WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0 BEGIN IF @Field1 = 1 BEGIN GOTO ENDCURSOR END FETCH NEXT FROM CursorName INTO @Field1, @Field2 END ENDCURSOR: CLOSE CursorName DEALLOCATE CursorName I have set my fonts to bold where you want to notice. So that's all I hope you will get something out of it and it is true that this is not a big deal. :)

How to use DataBinder.Eval in HyperLink NavigationUrl - ASP.net

I wanted to append page Url with DataBinder.Eval value in ASP.NET hyperlink control on ASP.NET HTML source.

Common Design Principles

There are number of common design principles that, like design patterns, best practice over the years to build maintainable software. I'm up to describe some widely used design principles though out the post. Following common principle are extracted by the same book that I mentioned before ( Professional ASP.Net Design Patterns - Scott Millet ). Principles are as follows: Keep It Simple Stupid (KISS) One common issue in software programming is over-complicating a solution. So main concern of this principle is keep the code simple but not simplistic. Eventually this will avoid unnecessary complexities. Don't Repeat yourself (DRY) Main concern of this principle is to avoid the repetition. In other words this is all about abstracting out the common functionalities into a single place. Ex: If there is a price calculation method in a system. It should lay in a single place there. Tell Don't Ask The Tell, Don’t Ask principle is closely aligned with encapsulation and the assignin...
