Git - Update submodule

Sometimes in the large project when we separate it in different repositories we need to take reference of one repository in another where some the sub-module concepts. Now if we move our submodule to a different repository or renaming its repo-path then we've to also update the repository where this sub-module is getting referenced.


Let's see how to update the git submodule. 


Step-1: First clone the repo

Step-2: Open git UI to create a new local branch from master

 Step-3: Open git bash

-- Now run below command to (remove submodules & add them): 

-- Remove submodule

git submodule deinit YOUR_FIRST_REPO
git rm YOUR_FIRST_REPO
git commit -m "Removed submodule YOUR_FIRST_REPO"
rm -rf .git/modules/YOUR_FIRST_REPO

-- Add submodule 
git submodule add <<..YOUR_FIRST_REPO git URL>>

Step-4: All good, let's push our changes to the master

EFCore - Collate function

Search in SQL server query is generally case insensitive (by default or based on database level collation). Suppose we have an employees table with a row having first-name column value as "My-First-Name", so if we want to do the case-sensitive search we have to explicitly use the related collate: In EF 5 (currently in Release Candidate version [RC.2.20475.6]) Collate function got introduced which helps us to use our specific collation based search.  C# with EF5 code sample: var employeeCaseSensitiveSearch = _dbContext.Employees .Where(x => EF.Functions.Collate(x.FirstName, "Latin1_General_CS_AS") == "my-first-name") .FirstOrDefault(); A related database query will be something like this: T-SQL: Case sensitive search (use specific collation e.g.: Latin1_General_CS_AS) SELECT * FROM dbo.Employees AS e WHERE e.FirstName Collate Latin1_General_CS_AS = 'my-first-name' Some of the useful CSharp function which g...

EFCore - Parallel db call on same dbContext

Practically there are multiple instances when we want to do parallel DB call which will save us some time. Like if we want to get a few employees details as well as users detail and if both entities are independent of each other better to go with a parallel call to fetch the details.  With the growing ORM usage and enhanced & optimized framework of like EFCore, in most of the application (related to C# development), we generally prefer to use EFCore. With EFCore if we try to use the same DB context to do parallel db call we are getting an error (... different thread using the same DbContext....). Because dbContext call is not thread-safe Parallel DB call on the same dbContext:  Code snipped: which will throw an error private void DbCallWithParallelCallOnSameDbContext() { try { var employeesTask = _dbContext.Employees.ToListAsync(); var usersTask = _dbContext.Users.ToListAsync(); ...
