Why/Can we use 'virtual' for properties in classes?

public class Employee
{
public int EmpID { get; set; }
public string EmpName{ get; set; }
public string Address { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<Dept> dept{ get; set; }
}

public class Dept
{
public int DeptID{ get; set; }
public string DeptName{ get; set; }
public string Email { get; set; }
public virtual Division div { get; set; }
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The virtual keyword has an effect when used on properties in EF Code First.

Lazy Loading: Any virtual ICollections will be lazy-loaded unless you specifically mark them otherwise.
More efficient change tracking. If you meet all the following requirements then your change tracking can use a more efficient method by hooking your virtual properties. From the link:

To get change tracking proxies, the basic rule is that your class must be public, non-abstract or non-sealed. Your class must also implement public virtual getters/setters for all properties that are persisted. Finally, you must declare collection based relationship navigation properties as ICollection<T> only. They cannot be a concrete implementation or another interface that derives from ICollection<T> (a difference from the Deferred Loading proxy)

MVC application life cycle

Any web application has two main execution steps first understanding the request and depending on the type of the request sending out appropriate response. MVC application life cycle is not different it has two main phases first creating the request object and second sending our response to the browser.

Creating Response object: - The request object creation has four major steps. Below is the detail explanation of the same.

Step 1 Fill route: - MVC requests are mapped to route tables which in turn specify which controller and action to be invoked. So if the request is the first request the first thing is to fill the route table with routes collection. This filling of route table happens in the global.asax file.

Step 2 Fetch route:- Depending on the URL sent "UrlRoutingModule" searches the route table to create "RouteData" object which has the details of which controller and action to invoke.

Step 3 Request context created: - The "RouteData" object is used to create the "RequestContext" object.

Step 4 Controller instance created: - This request object is sent to "MvcHandler" instance to create the controller class instance. Once the controller class object is created it calls the "Execute" method of the controller class.

Creating Response object: - This phase has two steps executing the action and finally sending the response as a result to the view.

Step 5 Execute Action: - The "ControllerActionInvoker" determines which action to executed and executes the action.

Step 6 Result sent: - The action method executes and creates the type of result which can be a view result , file result , JSON result etc.

So in all there are six broad steps which get executed in MVC application life cycle.
