Hi,@ fatih uyanık. Welcome to Microsoft Q&A.
It sounds like you're on the right track with your layered architecture using the MVVM pattern.
Presentation Layer (PL):
This layer contains your WPF views (XAML files) and their corresponding view models (C# classes).
Views are responsible for displaying UI elements and interacting with the user.
View models handle the logic and data binding between the views and the business logic layer (BL).
Views should not contain any business logic; they should delegate that responsibility to the view models.
Business Logic Layer (BL):
This layer contains the business logic of your application, including validation, calculations, and data manipulation.
It should be independent of any specific UI technology (e.g., WPF) and should focus solely on implementing business rules.
The BL layer interacts with the data access layer (DAL) to retrieve and persist data.
Data Access Layer (DAL):
This layer is responsible for interacting with the database or any other data source.
It contains classes that encapsulate database operations, such as querying, inserting, updating, and deleting data.
The DAL layer abstracts the details of database access, allowing the BL layer to work with data in a more abstract and business-focused way.
Dependency Injection (DI):
Use DI to inject dependencies (e.g., services, repositories) into your view models and other components.
Configure DI container at the composition root of your application (e.g., App.xaml.cs) to register dependencies and resolve them as needed.
Inject dependencies into your view models using constructor injection, property injection, or method injection.
Regarding the structure and setup of your project:
DAL: Contains database configurations, entities (EF models), and data access classes (repositories, data services).
BL: Contains business logic classes and interfaces. It should depend on the DAL but should not depend on the PL.
PL: Contains views, view models, and any UI-related components. It depends on the BL but should not depend on the DAL directly.
To ensure loose coupling and maintainability:
Define interfaces in the BL layer for services and repositories.
Implement these interfaces in the DAL layer.
Use dependency injection to inject concrete implementations of these interfaces into your view models.
