Source Cutter encourages the output of layered applications. A typical Source Cutter
generated application will have the following classes generated:
- Model Class - A simple class that typically represents a single row of data
from a database table. The model class also serves as the primary communication
mechanism between different layers.
- Strongly Typed Collections (optional) - Generates collection and
dictionary classes that are strongly typed. Strongly typed collection can provide
compile time type checking, as well as take advantage of development tool features
such as intellisense.
- Data Access Layer - The data access class is responsible for persisting information to the database and
retrieving information from the database. The data access class accepts model objects
as parameters, and returns model objects or collections of model objects.
- Presentation Layer - The presentation layer is either your Web page or Windows form.
The presentation layers retrieves model objects from the data access layer and
presents them to the user. The presentation layer also allows users to modify data,
and passes modified model classes back to the data access layer for persistence.
