How many typed datasets should I have?

I am creating an application that will have around 20 web forms. Should
I create only one strongly typed dataset that includes all the
DataTables required for all the forms or should I create one strongly
typed dataset per web form that includes only the DataTables required
by that specific form?

I usually create 1 DataSet per "business problem" or "display needed".

Sometimes you can reuse a few, but usually you write in a 1 per scenario.

on which assembly to keep DataSets in, if you're interested in N tier
development.

I've been attempting to design an n-tiered framework leveraging .NET's strongly typed Dataset. My Framework will serve as the foundation to several client apps from Windows applications to web sites and web services. The architecture consists of a business rules tier, a data tier, and a common tier. The common tier contains my typed Datasets while the business rules and data tiers contain functions to populate and save the common...

I am consuming a web service that returns arrays of classes which can contain other classes (a hierarchy of data). Is there a simple way to move the data into a typed DataSet without writing too much additional code? Observe that this web service does not return a DataSet explicitly, but I still want to handle the data as a DataSet at the consumer end. I havn't found any source of information on how SoapHttpClientProtocol.Invoke works...

Hi, I've been tasked to come up with a new architecture for a large application at one of my customer's sites. In the past, I have developed multi-tier applications whereby the business objects maintain the database using stored procedures etc and provide the data to the GUI layer via a set of objects and collections. After using the typed datasets with .NET, it appears that you van provide the same functionality as objects and...

I've always used untyped datasets. In a Microsoft course, it walks through creating typed datasets and harps on the benefits. It has you drag all these things around ..wizard, wizard, wizard... code gen, code gen, code gen. What's at the end looks slick, but then there's a ton of generated code that I'm going to have to maintain now. I.e. I like typing things myself (don't like wizards) so I can know exactly what I've done.

Hi, I'm delevloping a webservice that returns typed datasets with visual studio 2005. The problem is, that the typed data set in the client app is not the same as in the webservice. If I change the property 'NullValue' of the row to (empty) the dataset on the client does still throw an exception. I added a column to see if the project updates the reference.cs - and it does! This is the generated code from the original dataset:

Hi all, This post is sort of tangentially related to my earlier posts on configuration files for DLLs. Does anyone know how to create typed DataSets using VS2005's new DataSet designer, but with the ability to configure the connection string via a config file? The designer seems to hard-code the connection string into the dataset itself, which just can't be right.

I have a web reference WSDL, but it doesn't really create an XSD. I'm trying to generate datasets from the WSDL file but not sure how to do so. I successfully created the proxy class, but the WebServices all return/ send domain typed data, so I am seeing if I can turn these "classes"/ WSDL into Typed DataSets. Anyone have ideas on where to start?

Hi, I have understood Data Sets but what is meant by typed/untyped/ strongly typed datasets. Can any one explain me or suggest any site/ article, to get these concepts (and their comparisions) cleared? Thanks, Rachana

I'm trying to decide if it is better to use typed datasets or business objects, so I would appreciate any thoughts from someone with more experience. When I use a business object to populate a gridview, for example, I loop through a datareader, populating an array list with instances of a custom class in the middle tier, and then send the array list up to the presentation layer and bind the gridview to it. If I use a typed dataset, I...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
