I have a class that stores data in
asp.
net c# application that never changes. I really don't want to put this data in the database - I would like it to stay in the application. Here is my way to store data in the application:
public class PostVoteTypeFunctions
{
private List<PostVoteType> postVotes = new List<PostVoteType>();
public PostVoteTypeFunctions()
{
PostVoteType upvote = new PostVoteType();
upvote.ID = 0;
upvote.Name = "UpVote";
upvote.PointValue = PostVotePointValue.UpVote;
postVotes.Add(upvote);
PostVoteType downvote = new PostVoteType();
downvote.ID = 1;
downvote.Name = "DownVote";
downvote.PointValue = PostVotePointValue.DownVote;
postVotes.Add(downvote);
PostVoteType selectanswer = new PostVoteType();
selectanswer.ID = 2;
selectanswer.Name = "SelectAnswer";
selectanswer.PointValue = PostVotePointValue.SelectAnswer;
postVotes.Add(selectanswer);
PostVoteType favorite = new PostVoteType();
favorite.ID = 3;
favorite.Name = "Favorite";
favorite.PointValue = PostVotePointValue.Favorite;
postVotes.Add(favorite);
PostVoteType offensive = new PostVoteType();
offensive.ID = 4;
offensive.Name = "Offensive";
offensive.PointValue = PostVotePointValue.Offensive;
postVotes.Add(offensive);
PostVoteType spam = new PostVoteType();
spam.ID = 0;
spam.Name = "Spam";
spam.PointValue = PostVotePointValue.Spam;
postVotes.Add(spam);
}
}
When the constructor is called the code above is ran. I have some functions that can query the data above too. But is this the best way to store information in
asp.net? if not what would you recommend?
