)

insert 4 record

Stored procedure to retrieve data


Create procedure spGetAllEmployees
as
Begin
Select Id, Name, Gender, City, DateOfBirth
from tblEmployee
End

Step 1: Create an ASP.NET MVC 4 Web application with name = MVCDemo

Step 2: Add a Class Library project with Name="BusinessLayer"

Step 3: Right click on the BusinessLayer class library project, and add a class file
with name = Employee.cs.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

namespace BusinessLayer
{
public class Employee
{
public int ID { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public string Gender { get; set; }
public string City { get; set; }
public DateTime DateOfBirth { get; set; }
}
}

Step 4: Right click on the "References" folder of the "BusinessLayer" class library
project, and add a reference to "System.Configuration" assembly.

Step 5: Right click on the BusinessLayer class library project, and add a class file
with name = EmployeeBusinessLayer.cs.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Configuration;

namespace BusinessLayer
{
public class EmployeeBusinessLayer
{
public IEnumerable<Employee> Employees
{
get
{
string connectionString =
ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["DBCS"].ConnectionString;

List<Employee> employees = new List<Employee>();

using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(connectionString))


{
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("spGetAllEmployees", con);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
con.Open();
SqlDataReader rdr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
while (rdr.Read())
{
Employee employee = new Employee();
employee.ID = Convert.ToInt32(rdr["Id"]);
employee.Name = rdr["Name"].ToString();
employee.Gender = rdr["Gender"].ToString();
employee.City = rdr["City"].ToString();
employee.DateOfBirth = Convert.ToDateTime(rdr["DateOfBirth"]);

employees.Add(employee);
}
}

return employees;
}
}
}
}

Step 6: Right click on the "References" folder of the "MVCDemo" project, and add a
reference to "BusinessLayer" project.

Step 7: Include a connection string with name = "DBCS" in Web.Config file


<add name="DBCS"
connectionString="server=.; database=Sample; integrated security=SSPI"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>

Step 8: Right click on the "Controllers" folder and add Controller with name
= "EmployeeController.cs".
public class EmployeeController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Index()
{
EmployeeBusinessLayer employeeBusinessLayer =
new EmployeeBusinessLayer();

List<Employee> employees = employeeBusinessLayer.Employees.ToList();


return View(employees);
}
}

Step 9: Right click on the Index() action method in the "EmployeeController" class
and select "Add View" from the context menu. Set
View name = Index
View engine = Razor
Select "Create a strongly-typed view" checkbox
Scaffold Template = List
Click "Add" button
