First of all I'd like to remark that I'm not following PoEA Repository pattern. I just like this name! =)
Repository and Dao interfaces still remains hot topic today. While developing my last ASP.NET MVC application I've created my own interface, which I think suits best for me.
public interface IRepository
{
IQueryable<T> CreateQuery<T>() where T : class;
void Execute(Action<IPersister> action);
}
public interface IPersister
{
void Delete<T>();
void SaveOrUpdate<T>();
}
The most thing I like here is that I can hide transaction management in execute method implementation by wrapping Execute method delegate in "using transaction block" with try.
Sketch implementation of Execute method.
void Execute(Action<IPersister> action);
{
using (var transaction = this.session.BeginTransaction())
{
try
{
action(this.persister);
transaction.Commit();
}
catch (Exception)
{
transaction.Rollback();
}
}
}
What you think of that? Please leave a comment.
