Question about Design

[Amer Seifeddine]

Hello,

I am wondering which design would be better than the second for a business appliation managing user sessions (active/inactive etc):

1- Leave incoming threads to interact with sessions/database
2- Have internal threads managing incoming threads and serve their requests? How would I do that?
3- Any other idea is welcome.

Thanks!

3a. Use a framework that handles sessions and threading for you. Learn how to use it. Then worry about your business issues, and less on threading and sessions.

I am trying to build my own framework along with the business application.

The great thing about open source projects is that the source is available to actually look at. Pick a couple of existing frameworks you like, and look at their source code to see how they handle it. What do you feel you need to do differently?

You can learn a lot by reading source code. One of my favorite tech bloggers, Scott Hanselman, does a weekly source code post where he talks about what he learns from reading the source of different types of applications. Great stuff for developing your own skills.

As a mental game, thats cool. But life is too short to re-write code that someone else has designed, written, tested, and documented.
