Apollo.Common

Project Description

Apollo.Common is a set of libraries that implement common functionality required by enterprise applications. The emphasis has been placed on expected use by services and web based applications.


Apollo.Common consists of the following:

• Apollo.Common.Configuration, which creates a common system for storing configuration settings.
• Apollo.Common.Logging, which creates an easy to use method for logging, (uses NLog)
• Apollo.Common.Cache, creates a simple consistent interface for using memcached. (based on BeIT client)

Considerations

• Instead of using ILMerge I'm going to combine the three separate projects in the solution into a single project, with three folders for name-spacing. I am also going to embed NLog from source, and limit direct access to NLog, providing only for the simplified external API.

TODO:

• Combine separate projects into a single project.
• Embed NLog, and internalize NLog's functionality.
• Release unsigned version of the extended assembly.
• Modify projects for delayed signing
• Create setup project that signs the projects
• Have the setup project create C:\Apollo.Common.Configuration\ directory
• Include default logging, and sample memcached config
• Have setup project create C:\Apollo.Common.Logging\ directory for default logging config.
• Documentation
