Understanding CSLA...

VMI
I'm trying to understand the concept of CSLA (and using it with n-tier), but
I'm having trouble with it (even after browsing Lhotka's book).
Let's say I have a webform (presentation) that will insert a product into
the products table. My webform instantiates my Products class (business
layer), and calls addProduct(a,b, c,d, ...). Products.addPro duct creates and
configures the SQLCommand to run the SP (data layer) that inserts to
Products. Finally, the SP returns an error code (i.e. 0 or i) which another
method in Products will interpret as "An error occurred" or "The Insert was
successful". This string will then be sent to the webform.
How do I add CSLA to this architecture?

Thanks.
P.S. - I always thought that in 3-tier architecture the data layer was
another class that would make the actual call to the database and the
business layer would only make sure that the data being sent to the data
layer was correct and that the information sent to the windows/web form was
user-friendly.

Hey guys, need some help understanding some things that maybe someone can explain or clarify it a little better then a text book. Here is my understanding so far: Class - basically a shell for your code Fields - basically just a variable but can be "write protected" Properties - access fields, they can retrieve data contained in the "variable"

Hi, I understand what one the differences between std::vector, std::deque and std::list is, the std::vector can have data inserted/deleted at the end. The std::deque can have data inserted/deleted at the end and at beginning and the std::list can have data inserted/deleted anywhere. But how can those differences be physically understood?

Is my following understanding correct ? Data abstraction means providing the interface - that is, the set of functions that can be called by the user of a class. Information hiding means mentioning the class members(functions, typedefs, data) under the access control labels : public, protected, private. Encapsulation means providing the implementation of class member
