Execution List

A simple way to build up a list of methods that will all be called at a specific point

I use this for 2 things:

• to schedule tests on the data to be run just before a commit to the database, e.g. to assess data integrity
• to make updates to repsonse data after a commit to the database, e.g. to return identity values set by the database

public interface IExecutionList : IList 
{
    void Execute();
} 

public class ExecutionList : List, IExecutionList 
{
    public void Execute()
    {
        this.ForEach(x => x());
        this.Clear();
    }
}

private void Test(Container container)
{
    container.Register();
    IExecutionList executionList = container.GetInstance();

    executionList.Add(() => Debug.Print("1"));
    executionList.Add(() => Debug.Print("2"));
    executionList.Add(() => Debug.Print("3"));
    executionList.Add(() => Debug.Print("4"));

    executionList.Execute();
}
