One of the things that we will be discussing at the Nashville .NET User Group Tomorrow night, March 19, 2009, is a sample application that has a service layer built in F#. To access the sample code click here.
A few notes:
- The code is broken out into two main layers: Service and Presentation.
- The service layer is built in F# and the presentation layer is build in C# with ASP.NET MVC RC1.
- The tests are written in C# (even in the service layer) to provide examples of language interoperability.
- To keep things as simple as possible, the data is stored in an XML file rather than a database. All interaction with the data is through Linq to XML.
- The intent of this example is to help existing object-oriented developers ease into the language. Because of this, many functional programming approaches are not utilized to the full extent.
- This uses the F# Sept. 2008 CTP.
Hi Dan,
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to your presentation. As a F# newb, I should learn a lot. Thanks for stepping up and sharing with the community.
