    <p>I have a web service and some methods and I do NOT want to use this code below, which works fine, because I intend to use this in a multi-threaded app where static (I have read) is not thread safe.</p> <p>So, what I have done now is simply repeat the code that is in the static method 'returnisTrue()' below, in the body of my web service method "myWebMethod", at points //1 of 3, //2 of 3, and //3 of 3. This works fine but results in bloated code. Is there a more compact way, using functional programming or anonymous methods or what have you that I can use?</p> <p>Note the compiler choked when I tried to create a class inside the method...which would have solved my problem.</p> <p>As I say the code I have now works fine but it is bloated, as I repeat the 'static' method 'returnisTrue' three times.</p> <p>Thank you.</p> <p>EDIT: in response to some questions about making my static method thread safe, which I rather not bother with, but in the interest of getting a solution I include below.</p> <p>All this code is server side in a web service </p> <pre><code>// I cannot unfortunately use this static method below--not thread safe static private bool returnisTrue() { bool isTrue = false; // do a bunch of stuff here return isTrue; } public bool myWebMethod (string XYZ) { //public Class myClassReturnisTrue { … } //will not compile bool isTrueOrNot1 = returnisTrue(); //1 of 3 /// more code here bool isTrueOrNot2 = returnisTrue(); //2 of 3 ///more code here bool isTrueOrNot3 = returnisTrue(); //3 of 3 return isTrueOrNot1 &amp;&amp; isTrueOrNot2 &amp;&amp; isTrueOrNot3; } // here is the static method 'returnisTrue' it looks something like this: static private bool returnIsTrue(string A, string B) { if (A.Length() &lt; B.Length()) { return true; } else return false; } </code></pre>

    1. COWhy not refactor `returnisTrue` to be thread safe?

    2. COThere is not enough information – nothing that looks like a possible lambda or anonymous type – to address the question in the title.

    3. CO@Richard--thanks for your reply. I think locks have a performance cost--as several thousand times a second this static method will be evaluated. From J. Kommer it appears the static method is thread-safe. It's strange C# does not have something simple inline to address this problem. Oh well... I got lucky this time.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
