How to implement Unit of work in MVC: Responsibility

Question

Who has the responsability

---

Who has the responsibility to start and finish the Unit of work in a MVC architecture?

Answer 1

As zihotki said you would be violating the SRP if you give this responsibility to the controller. This is a data manipulation oriented pattern, and as such should not be a concern for the controller ... that would make it two violations: one for the SRP and anothrt for the SoC principle.

As for who has the responsibility, that's something to be defined by your architecture. The StartRequest/EndRequest suggestion seems solid enough.
