Honestly women are more of a bother than a benefit. Part of maturing is learning to reject nature for your own self interest. Women will use your precious time for unproductive and impractical activities. They require constant upkeep and they will try to shape you into their ideals (a lot more of a nerd).

I do not need a woman to be happy. I do not need a woman to have children. There are plenty of children in need of a parent already (even if that is a single parent). Save for your own retirement and enjoy life.

How to create a self hosted API for development and testing 12 years ago

You can allow non-administrator access using netsh[1] as an administrator. That way you don't need to run VS as admin.

    netsh http add urlacl url=http://+:8080/ user=DOMAIN\username

You don't need attributes based routing in this example. Convention based routing is built into WebAPI.

For the Delete method you can return an HttpStatusCode instead of throwing an exception.

    public IHttpActionResult Delete(int Id)
    {
        var result = (from b in ourbooks
                      where b.Id == Id
                      select b).FirstOrDefault();

        ourbooks.Remove(result);
        return StatusCode(HttpStatusCode.Accepted);
    }

Introducing ASP.NET vNext 12 years ago

My VB is a bit rusty, but you will need to define associations in the configuration.

First add foreign keys to to models (e.g. In the Build class add MainlineID for the Mainline object).

Then you can define the configuration:

    Public Class BuildConfiguration
        Implements EntityTypeConfiguration(Of Build)

        Public Sub New()
            ToTable("Build")
            ' Other mappings
            ' Define one-to-many
            HasRequired(Function(x) x.Mainline) _
            .WithMany(Function(x) x.Builds) _
            .HasForeignKey(Function(x) x.MainlineID)
        End Sub
    End Class

Inside your context you load the configuration:

    Public Class MyContext
        Inherits DbContext

        Public Property Builds As DbSet(Of Build)

        Protected Overrides Sub OnModelCreating(modelBuilder As DbModelBuilder)
            MyBase.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder)
            modelBuilder.Configurations.Add(New BuildConfiguration())
        End Sub
    End Class

Then you can use the Include extension method (or eager loading) on the DbContext to populate the object.

    Using context As New MyContext()
        Return context.Builder.Include(Function(b) b.Mainline)
    End Using
