Mapping two objects using convention and coded/configurerd mappings. This comes in handy when moving through the layers of a solution (data > business > viewmodel) Every property with the same name is automatically mapper – hence the name.

The newest version of AutoMapper offers an Interface for use with IoC. Save the MapperConfiguration and use it every time to construct the IMapper impementation (config.CreateMapper())

Working in a DevOps team is the best thing that happened to me. I like challenges and sharing the solutions with others. On my blog I’ll mostly post about my work, but expect an occasional home project, productivity tip and tooling review.
