Hi Chad,
thats a good idea! I would prefer this over the lambda syntax you posted
before.
And we could have both: fluent api and initializer syntax.
ConnectionString.Is(
ConnectionString
.Server(“foo”)
.Database(”bar”))
vs.
ConnectionString.Is(
new ConnectionString {
Server = “foo”,
Database = ”bar”});
BUT I see one problem with this: discoverability. The
ConnectionStringExpression classes have the necessary properties so that
you will find them in IntelliSense. With the ConnectionString class you
have to know that it exists.
And the second problem is with different databases. There will be an
MsSqlConnectionstring and a PostgreSqlConnectionString. To make this
"typesafe" we need special parameter types for the In(...) method.
So maybe its better to stick with the solution we just started?
Cheers,
Stefan Lieser
