Final Note
When using the technique presented in this article, it's a good idea to separate the business logic in a different class (file) from the presentation logic. For example, we can put this logic in a different class (or in a different file):
class BusinessLogic
{
public DataSet GetData()
{
DataSet ds = new DataSet() ;
// Creating a new DataSet to hold the XML Data.
ds.ReadXml("employees.xml") ;
// Getting the XML Data into the DataSet created.
return ds;
}
}
and then instantiate and use it in the file where we have presentation logic, like this:
BusinessLogic BL = new BusinessLogic(); DataSet ds = BL.GetData();
This approach gives us an easy port when we finally convert all CGI code to ASP.NET.
