The "Enumerable" makes no sense. "Validation" is an all or nothing proposition. If you want to return multiple error / messages, return a list. If the list is "empty", you might consider things valid and then do a "save".
Other than that, you've provide no information about the environment: online, batch, whatever.

So, instead of "one" call, he does multiple calls to get all the errors "because there may be multiple properties". Sorry, I fail to see the connection. The interface is at the "class level", not the property level.

No, there's one call to get the list of validation errors. Each error can be associated with one or more properties, by specifying the member names in the ValidationResult.
The interface is designed for validation rules on a class which need access to other properties of the class. Validation attributes on a property only get access to that property's value. That's fine for simple validation rules like "required" or "greater than zero", but it doesn't work for things like "confirm password must be equal to password".

Still doesn't answer why an enumerable is "better" than a list in this case. All you're doing is trading a yield for an Add (and making it more complicated for some … as indicated by OP's post).

The interface defines the method as returning IEnumerable<ValidationResult>.
If you wanted to return a List<ValidationResult> instead of using an iterator method, you could certainly do that. But I don't see how it would make things significantly simpler.

No one ever said it is "better".
This is just how the interface is built. Implementers are free to return whatever they want, provided it implements IEnumerable.

In this case, you could probably implement the validation by adding a navigation property:
public class Order : IValidateObject
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public int ItemId { get; set; }
public int Quantity { get; set; }
public virtual Item Item { get; set; }
public IEnumerable<ValidationResult> Validate(ValidationContext validationContext)
{
if (Quantity % Item.Multiple != 0)
{
yield return new ValidationResult("Quantity not multiple of item", new[] { Quantity });
}
}
} However, you'd need to test to make sure the property was always set.
Alternatively, you could override the ValidateEntity method on your DbContext:
DbContext.ValidateEntity(DbEntityEntry, IDictionary<Object,Object>) Method (System.Data.Entity) | Microsoft Docs[^]
NB: This wouldn't work with EF Core - it no longer tries to validate the entities before saving them. If you wanted to validate the entities before trying to save them, you would have to write your own validation logic - for example:

Hello,
I really appreciate some assistance in explaining how to create a collection property of the same class, as in the following example:
public class Person
{
public int PersonId { get; set; }
public int ParentId { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<Person> People { get; set; }
}
Note: I am using EF-Code First ..
Many Thanks

That should work if you make the ParentId property nullable.
public class Person
{
public int PersonId { get; set; }
public int? ParentId { get; set; }
public virtual Person Parent { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<Person> People { get; set; }
}

I think you don't need the ParentId property. You just need the Person Parent line and EF takes care of setting it up.
Of course, it's been a few years since I did this crap in EF, so YMMV.

Thank for your response.
I did what you suggested in a resourse class.
public class Resourse
{
public int ResourseId { get; set; }
public int? ParentId { get; set; }
public virtual Resourse Parent { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<Resourse> Resourses { get; set; }
}
the outcome is that EF created a foreign key dependency Parent_ResourseId .. The Null-able ParentId is just another property, please see the following:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Resourses] (
[ResourseId] INT IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
[ParentId] INT NULL,
[Parent_ResourseId] INT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_dbo.Resourses] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ([ResourseId] ASC),
CONSTRAINT [FK_dbo.Resourses_dbo.Resourses_Parent_ResourseId] FOREIGN KEY ([Parent_ResourseId]) REFERENCES [dbo].[Resourses] ([ResourseId])
);
so i think i should remove the property ParentId and Rename the Auto Generated Foreign Key to ParentId.
Any Idea on how to do that, maybe fluent Api statement.
Thanks for your help.

For EF6:
Fluent API - Relationships - EF6 | Microsoft Docs[^]
modelBuilder.Entity<Resource>()
.HasOptional(r => r.Parent)
.WithMany(r => r.Children)
.HasForeignKey(r => r.ParentId);
For EF Core:
Relationships - EF Core | Microsoft Docs[^]
modelBuilder.Entity<Resource>()
.HasOne(r => r.Parent)
.WithMany(r => r.Children)
.HasForeignKey(r => r.ParentId);

ICollection is implemented by List. You can create your list with:
public virtual ICollection<Person> People {get;set;} = new List<Person>();

Ok solved this, by implementing
modelBuilder.Entity<Book>()
.HasMany<Book>(g => g.Books)
.WithRequired(s => s.Parent)
.HasForeignKey<int?>(s => s.ParentId);
thanks for your help.

I have a txtSearch and btnSearch and i have a web browser. a webrowser have a Textbox1 in element and a Button1. Is that possible, once i entered a value in txtsearch automatically inputted to the Textbox1 in web browser. and lastly how to avoid to clear the value in txtSearch once the webbrowser refreshing.
Thanks in advance
Code below is working for automatically click the button in web browser once click the BtnSearch.
private async void BtnSearch_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
HTMLDocument doc = (HTMLDocument)MyWebBrowser.Document;
HTMLInputElement btnsearch = (HTMLInputElement)doc.all.item("Button1", 0);
btnsearch.click();
}

Hi , I have here an ping application implemented as a console application.
I want to turn this into a continuous ping application. Can someone give me a tip how to change this code so it runs continuously.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Threading;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.NetworkInformation;
namespace PingAppConsole
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
string host, data;
byte[] buffer;
int timeout;
Ping pingSender = new Ping();
PingOptions options = new PingOptions();
options.DontFragment = true;
data = "Rodham street";
buffer = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(data);
timeout = 120;
host = "www.google.no";
PingReply reply = pingSender.Send(host, timeout, buffer, options);
if (reply.Status == IPStatus.Success)
{
Console.WriteLine(" Ping communication status for {0}:", host);
Console.WriteLine(" ------------------------------------------");
Console.WriteLine(" Address: {0}", reply.Address.ToString());
Console.WriteLine(" RoundTrip time (mSec): {0}", reply.RoundtripTime);
Console.WriteLine(" Time to live: {0}", reply.Options.Ttl);
Console.WriteLine(" Dont fragment: {0}", reply.Options.DontFragment);
Console.WriteLine(" Buffer size: {0}", reply.Buffer.Length);
Console.WriteLine(" ------------------------------------------");
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine(" Error connecting to network address/name {0}", host);
}
Console.WriteLine(" Press CR or Enter to Quit the application");
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
|
|
|
|
|
put an infinite loop around the ping call
while ( true ) {
PingReply reply = pingSender.Send(host, timeout, buffer, options)
else
{
Console.WriteLine("Error ... ");
}
}
Not sure if you could ever break out of that, though. You'd probably want to reduce that to one line of output, similar to what you get from ping from the command prompt. Oh, and you'll probably want to add a delay at the bottom of the loop so you don't flood the network with ping requests. Thread.Sleep() seems like a good option.

Thanks 
Is there a way I can check all the nodes in the network and also get the number of the nodes in my network segment?
|
|
|
|
|
It used to be that most nodes on a lan would respond to a broadcast ping, but most systems do not do so any longer. Many hosts also employ firewalls to block pings. And firewalls can be used to block all connections except from certain hosts, or maybe even all incoming connections.
If all your nodes are connected through a simple hub, then you might be able to sniff packets on the wire and see what the source and destination nodes are. If you're using smart switches then the switch might only forward packets between the ports the nodes are attached to, so you might not see packets.
So there's not any good way to do that. There's only the brute force approach, a la Windows | Nmap Network Scanning.
Be aware that scanning networks where you do not have permission to do so is not advised. Its not unlike someone going around the outside of your hose checking to see if any of your doors or windows are openable. There might not be any intent to create mischief, but it certainly looks like you're trying to break in!

Ok thanks. If you would write pseudocode for it, how would it look like based on my initial code?
|
|
|
|

Use a Timer. Call your routine from the Timer's Tick event. Disable / enable the Timer each time you handle the event to avoid reentrancy with short intervals. Though with a timer and status reporting, I would probably use a Windows app instead of a Console app.

Hi!
I have a question regarding the topic I mentioned in the subject.
I am trying to process numbers (voltage values) and print them nicely on the user interface of my software. What I do now is that I manually code everything. I have 8 different values and I do the following:
Label1.Text = value1.ToString("0.###") + " V";
Label2.Text = value2.ToString("0.###") + " V";
.
.
.
Label8.Text = value8.ToString("0.###") + " V";
"
It works, and everything, but I wonder if there is an elegant solution which runs through the labels and the variables at the same time? And also, is it faster in the more elegant way?
And I have another question related to the code above. Let's say, these values are smaller than 1. In that case, it would be nicer to print the voltage in milivolts, so we see the digits in a more convenient way. For that, my idea would be a simple if-else statement:
if(value1<1.0)
{
Label1.Text = (1000*value1).ToString("0.###") + " mV";
}
else
{
Label1.Text = value1.ToString("0.###") + " V";
}
But, the problem is similar as the first part of the problem. Should I go through each of these cases manually by writing 8 if-else statements for each values, or there is a better (faster), more elegant way?
My code is starting to have a lot of if-else statements because of similar things (for example, checking the state of check boxes) and I start to think whether it has a negative impact on the performance or not?
Thank you very much for your input!

You could put the values in a list or array and use a simple loop to format them. You may also need another array to contain all the label references.
