Assembly Neutral Interface in ASP.NET 5(vNext)

CodeProject
Recently Microsoft has open sourced it’s entire ASP.NET next version stack on GitHub and I have been closely watching this for a quite a some time to understand how they have created architecture of it and how they organize everything in such a large stack.

I have seen  [AssemblyNeutral] attribute in few of interfaces and I was curious why it was required. So I dig into it and learned about it.

Why we need Assembly Neutral Interfaces?

In earlier version of ASP.NET and Microsoft.NET Interfaces are bind to a assembly where it is declared. Let’s say I have written a interface under DotNetJalps namespace for my framework.

namespace DotNetJalps
{
    public interface ILogger
    {
        DoAmazingStuff();
    }
}

Now after some time this framework is super popular and everybody loves abstraction I have created and now they wants same abstraction so there are two ways we can do this.

1. Convenience me to write this abstraction.
2. Write implementation themself and maintain that.

C# 6.0–String Interpolation

This blog post is part of C# 6.0 Features Series.

As we all know, C# 6.0 provides lots of small enhancements to the language and string interpolation is one of them. In this blog post we are going to learn how this small new feature can help us for string concatenation.

So let’s take small example, Where I have created a new example of string concatenation. Following is a code for that.

using System;
namespace StringInterpolation
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string name = "Jalpesh Vadgama";

            //Old way of string concentaionation 
            Console.WriteLine("My name is" + name);
            Console.WriteLine("My name is {0}", name);

            //New way of doing this
            Console.WriteLine("My name is {name}");
        }
    }
}
