1)What is model-view-controller?
The Model-View-Controller (MVC) is a pattern separates the modeling of the domain, the presentation, and the actions based on user input into three separate classes.
Model. The model manages the behavior and data of the application domain, responds to requests for information about its state (usually from the view), and responds to instructions to change state (usually from the controller).
View. The view manages the display of information.
Controller. The controller interprets the mouse and keyboard inputs from the user, informing the model and/or the view to change as appropriate.
4)How can we maintain session in MVC?
var empdetails=vp.GetData();
Session["employee"]=empdetails;
5)What is partial view?
partial view can be compared to user control in Asp.Net Web forms.Which is mainly used for code re-usability.Partial views are reusable in the Header and Footer views. By this ways it helps in reducing code.
6)What is JSON? How to use in MVC?
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format.It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language.
JSON is built on two structures
a.A collection of name/value pairs. In various languages, this is realized as an object, record, struct, dictionary, hash table, keyed list, or associative array.
b.An ordered list of values. In most languages, this is realized as an array, vector, list, or sequence.
7)What is the difference between tempdata,viewdata and viewbag?
TempData
1.TempData is a dictionary object that is derived from TempDataDictionary class and stored in short lives session.
2.TempData is used to pass data from current request to subsequent request means incase of redirection.
3.It's life is very short and lies only till the target view is fully loaded.
4.It's required typecasting for complex data type and check for null values to avoid error.
5.It is used to store only one time messages like error messages, validation messages
ViewData
1.ViewData is a dictionary object that is derived from ViewDataDictionary class.
2.ViewData is used to pass data from controller to corresponding view.
3.It's life lies only during the current request.
4.If redirection occurs then it's value becomes null.
5.It's required typecasting for complex data type and check for null values to avoid error.
ViewBag
1.ViewBag is a dynamic property that takes advantage of the new dynamic features in C# 4.0.
2.Basically it is a wrapper around the ViewData and also used to pass data from controller to corresponding view.
3.It's life also lies only during the current request.
4.If redirection occurs then it's value becomes null.
5.It doesn't required typecasting for complex data type.
8)What is GET?
Post request is sent via HTTP request body or we can say internally.
GET request is the default method.
Since GET request is sent via URL, so that we can not use this method for sensitive data.
GET request has a limitation on its length. The good practice is never allow more than 255 characters.
GET request will be better for caching and bookmarking.
GET request is SEO friendly.
GET request always submits data as TEXT.
9)What is POST?
We have to specify POST method within form tag like
Since Post request encapsulated name pair values in HTTP request body, so that we can submit sensitive data through POST method.
POST request has no major limitation.
POST request is not better for caching and bookmarking.
POST request is not SEO friendly.
POST request has no restriction.
10)What is PUT?
Used to update an existing data record
11)What is DELETE?
Used to delete an existing data record
12)How to perform validations in MVC?
public class Employee
{
[Required(ErrorMessage = "Name Required")]
public string Name { get; set; }
[Required(ErrorMessage = "Valid Email Required")]
[Email]
public string Email{ get; set; }
}
13)What is ActionResult?
An action method responds to user input by performing work and returning an action result. An action result represents a command that the framework will perform on behalf of the action method. The ActionResult class is the base class for action results.
