writing update methods

petre ricardo

Hi,
i have an update method in my busines Layer that takes a Dictionary collection as an argument. The method updates the database with the passed values.
is this the standard way of writing an update method (i.e to take a Dictionary Collection) to update data in a table?

cheers

Accepted answer
A dictionary is actually just another collection of Key/Value pairs, just like a HashTable, except that you declare a type for the Key and Value. These are any type you want. The Key or Value can be a primitive, array, enum, or even a struture.
So you can use dictionary collection to update the records.
Even you also use array, arraylist, hash table to hold the records and update one by one.
