C#: Auto-Property Initializer in C# 6.0

Any developer who has worked with C# must have used properties sometimes during development. As you know, Auto-Property is declared with simple get and set (i.e. without any backing field), and can be initialized in the constructor once they are declared.

In C# 6.0 a new features is introduced names as Auto-Property initializer. Auto-Property initializer allows property to be initialized like any other field in the same line where it has been declared.

Let’s see Auto-Property Initializer in action:
public bool UserName { get; set; } = "Sandeep";

Auto-Property initializer in C# 6.0 also allows us to initialize read only Auto-Property in the same line where it has been declared. In older version of C#, we had to use a private set for read only properties, but with C# 6.0, without a private set, you can declare and initialize a property in the same line.

Auto-Property Initializer for read only properties:
public bool UserName { get; } = "Sandeep";

C#: Merging Excel cells with NPOI HSSFWorkbook

In this post we’ll see how to merge the two or more cell with each other while creating the excel sheet using NPOI . Mentioned below is code to merge multiple cells, in this example we are merging first cell to fifth cell of first row (you can adjust row or cell range by passing particular parameters in CellRangeAddress). //Created new Workbook var hwb = new NPOI.HSSF.UserModel. HSSFWorkbook (); //Create worksheet with name. var sheet = hwb.CreateSheet( "new sheet" ); //Create row and cell. var row = sheet.CreateRow(0); var cell = row.CreateCell(0); ; //Set text inside cell cell.SetCellValue( "This is Merged cell" ); cell.CellStyle.WrapText = true ; //define cell range address // parameters: -> first row to last and first cell to last cell var cra = new NPOI.SS.Util. CellRangeAddress (0, 0, 0, 4); //Add merged region to sheet. sheet.AddMergedRegion(cra); Hope this solution helps you J

Difference between Web API, WCF and Web Service

So now we have got the basic idea about Web API , now let’s do some comparison of Web API with WCF and web services. Web Service WCF Web API Web services are created as files with .asmx extension. WCF create with .svc extension Web API are simple class file with .cs(for C#) extension. Web API is inherited from “ApiController” and the class name must end with “Controller”. It is SOAP based service and returns data in XML form. It is also based on SOAP and returns data in XML form. Web API is HTTP based service and by default, it returns data in JSON or XML form. It supports only HTTP protocol. It supports various protocols like TCP, HTTP, HTTPS, Named Pipes, and MSMQ. It supports HTTP protocol. It can be hosted only on IIS. It can be hosted within the application or on IIS or using window service. It can be hosted within the application or on IIS. It is no...
