I already use java at work. I was just wondering about C# because I want to leave my job (my first job and ive been there 8 mo, i cj and write plugins for rational team concert lmfao. and now they have me maintaining this previously outsourced j2ee app part time....) and there seems to be a lot of C# in the area I'm looking at. so as a resume booster i was thinking about doing a c# project that would involve some topic thats a gap in my CS knowledge

c# is pretty easy to use and learn coming from java and the web stuff is currently the best.

if you dislike windows enough you don't want to use it full time on your mac, you are probably not a good candidate for a c# job.

There's always something at the bottom of the bag.
I have been tasked with making an internal web app that is just a collection of forms that call various stored procedures. I'm using asp.net mvc and I get the gist but it seems that every online reference does it differently.

do I want the sql calls in the controllers or the model? the general consensus is that it goes in the controller but also fat controllers are also bad? also how many controllers do i want,1 per model?

Shaggar

i usually create an interface w/ methods/models representing all the db calls and then build the controller against that interface/model.

then write an implementation using w/e db code.

your model objects should all be dumb as hell pocos and then you can also have some view models for extending the models for your views.

everyone does it differently but the way i do it is correct.
