SQL Generation Using Method Chaining – Richard King
Richard demonstrated generating SQL in an application offering many user selectable queries and optional conditions which can be applied to the selected queries. A technique known as “method chaining” was used to write the code which is very readable (even if it is not Queen’s English), is easy to write, extend and maintain.
