Good technologies for developing a modular server component in .net?
I am using WPF, Prism and Unity to develop the user interface for a .net application. The UI will run from a PC, but I also need to develop a separate complex server component that will provide services to the PC component via WCF.
Is there anything in .NET that allows me to define a grammar and generate a programming language?
I have a course in which the proffesor has asked us to create a DSL for a our final project. He presented us in the first courses xText with Eclipse. This being a new course, I am still a bit fuzzy on what Domain Specific Languages means.
Designing a Database Application with OOP
I often develop SQL database applications using Linq, and my methodology is to build model classes to represent each table, and each table that needs inserting or updating gets a Save() method (which either does an InsertOnSubmit() or SubmitChanges(), depending on the state of the object). Often, when I need to represent a collection of records, I’ll create a class that inherits from a List-like object of the atomic class.
Better way to read XML

What should be done exactly when the most obvious class name for a component is taken by a framework? In my case, I need to make a class that describes an HTTP request. Of course, the most common name is “taken” as System.Web.HttpRequest. What should I do? This project will be used in a web context, so I’d really rather not force people to not import the System.Web namespace, or type out all of my class names manually.
Library Organization in .NET
I’ve written a .NET bitwise operations library as part of my projects (stuff ranging from get MSB set to some more complicated bitwise transformations) and I mean to release it as free software. I’m a bit confused about a design aspect of the library, though.
Are XML Comments Necessary Documentation?
I used to be a fan of requiring XML comments for documentation. I’ve since changed my mind for two main reasons:
Should I create repositories with special functions like getStaffActive()?
I have seen lots of articles but none really help me. That is because I want to use dapper as a DAL. Should I create repositories with special functions? Like getStaffActive()?
