Different Types of Software Design Principles

1. SOLID :
It is a combination of five basic designing principles.

A. Single Responsibility Principle (SRP)
This principle states that there should never be more than one reason for a class to change. This means that you should design your classes in such a way that each class should have a single purpose.

Example - An Account class is responsible for managing Current and Saving Account but a CurrentAccount and a Saving Account classes would be responsible for managing current and savings accounts respectively. Hence both are responsible for a single purpose only. Hence we are moving towards specialization.

B. Open/Closed Principle (OCP)
This principle states that software entities (classes, modules, functions, etc.) should be open for extension but closed for modification. The "closed" part of the rule states that once a module has been developed and tested, the code should only be changed to correct bugs. The "open" part says that you should be able to extend existing code in order to introduce new functionality.

Example – A PaymentGateway base class contains all basic payment related properties and methods. This class can be extended by different PaymentGateway classes for different payment gateway vendors to achieve their functionalities. Hence it is open for extension but closed for modification.

C. Liscov Substitution Principle (LSP)
This principle states that functions that use pointers or references to base classes must be able to use objects of derived classes without knowing it.

Example - Assume that you have an inheritance hierarchy with Person and Student. Wherever you can use Person, you should also be able to use a Student, because Student is a subclass of Person.

D. Interface Segregation Principle (ISP)
This principle states that Clients should not be forced to depend upon interfaces that they don’t use. This means the number of members in the interface that is visible to the dependent class should be minimized.

Example - The service interface that is exposed to the client should contains only client related methods not all.

E. Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP)
The Dependency Inversion Principle states that:

High level modules should not depend upon low level modules. Both should depend upon abstractions.

Abstractions should not depend upon details. Details should depend upon abstractions.

It helps us to develop loosely couple code by ensuring that high-level modules depend on abstractions rather than concrete implementations of lower-level modules. The Dependency Injection pattern is an implementation of this principle

Example - The Dependency Injection pattern is an implementation of this principle

2. DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself) :
This principle states that each small pieces of knowledge (code) may only occur exactly once in the entire system. This helps us to write scalable, maintainable and reusable code.

Example – Asp.Net MVC framework works on this principle.

3. KISS (Keep it simple, Stupid!) :
This principle states that try to keep each small piece of software simple and unnecessary complexity should be avoided. This helps us to write easy maintainable code.

4. YAGNI (You ain't gonna need it) :
This principle states that always implement things when you actually need them never implements things before you need them.

How To Implement NLog With WebAPI In Asp.Net(C#).

What is NLog? NLog is a flexible and free logging platform for various .NET platforms, including .NET standard. NLog is easy to apply and it includes several targets (database, file, event viewer). Which platform support it? .NET Framework 3.5, 4, 4.5, 4.6 & 4.7 .NET Framework 4 client profile Xamarin Android Xamarin iOS Windows Phone 8 Silver light 4 and 5 Mono 4 ASP.NET 4 (NLog.Web package) ASP.NET Core (NLog.Web.AspNetCore package) .NET Core (NLog.Extensions.Logging package) .NET Standard 1.x - NLog 4.5 .NET Standard 2.x - NLog 4.5 UWP - NLog 4.5 There are several log levels. Fatal : Something terrible occurred; the application is going down  Error : Something fizzled; the application might possibly proceed Warn : Something surprising; the application will proceed  Info : Normal conduct like mail sent, client refreshed profile and so on.  Debug : For troubleshooting; the executed question, the client confirmed, ...

Generating serial numbers and keys in Asp.net(C#).

here we are using GUID for generate serial numbers and GUID is always unique. Example format: XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX. Guid SerialKeyGuid = Guid.NewGuid(); string AccessKey = SerialKeyGuid.ToString("N"); string AccessKeyLength = AccessKey.Substring(0, 28).ToUpper(); char[] serialArray = AccessKeyLength.ToCharArray(); string SerialNumber = ""; int P = 0; for (int B = 0; B < 28; B++) {                 for (P = B; P < 4 + B; P++)                 {                     SerialNumber += serialArray[P];                 }                 if (P == 28)                 {                     break;                 }         ...

Extracting Values from PDFs in .NET Core 8 without ASP.NET

Extracting data from PDF files is a common necessity for various tasks such as data analysis, content indexing, and information retrieval. While ASP.NET Core 8 offers robust tools for PDF manipulation, there are instances where developers may prefer alternatives for flexibility or specific project requirements. In this article, we'll explore how to extract values from PDF files within the .NET Core 8 ecosystem without relying on ASP.NET, using the PdfSharpCore library. We'll provide a step-by-step guide along with examples in C# to demonstrate how to accomplish this task effectively. Understanding PdfSharpCore: PdfSharpCore is a popular .NET library for PDF document manipulation. It provides functionalities to create, modify, and extract content from PDF files. In this guide, we'll focus on utilizing PdfSharpCore to extract text from PDF documents.
