When implementing MVP in a ASP.NET project, what are your preferences for how you organize the relationship between your presentation project and your web project?
View 1 Repliesi know some thing about the MVP pattern... but when you want to develop a project(web project) based on the MVP pattern from where we need to start... i mean which component we need to start developing first ...
Model or View or Presenter... what are the points that we need to keep in mind....
+1 if you are specific to ASP.NET MVC projects.
Update 9:42 PM:
I am thinking about this from now as I need several developers across the globe to work on this project. We will be using VS 2010 and I heard some thing about web application templates.
I've looked all over the web for the best way to organize an ASP.NET MVC2 project. I've only seen examples of people using the default template for MVC2 projects. But is this the best way to organize your project if it is going to contain a large number of files?
We're in the process of building an application that is heavily built around jQuery for UI and ajax using JSON. So, as you can imagine, we will have many custom .js support scripts.
In our solution, we have placed all our support libraries (3rd party and custom) into respective projects. The MVC2 project that is also in the solution is using the default MVC2 template.
In the MVC2 project, the "starting" structure is still pretty much unchanged. Under the Controllers directory, we have each controller AccountController.cs and HomeController.cs (for example). Under the Views directory, we have three subdirectories named Account, Home, and Shared. In the Scripts, directory we have also divided that up with three directories, Account, Home, and Shared. And finally we have the Models directory, that is also divided into Account, Home, and Shared subdirectories.
As you can see we haven't deviated from the basic template that much. But, as we start adding stuff to this, we're realizing how cumbersome this might become when we get upwards to 20 or 30 views and 100 support .js files.
I work in a suite of ASP.NET applications that have several different "modules". The applications all share a main menu, so they all link to one-another. The modules are the high-level areas of the application. So, for example, it might be Payments, Orders, Customers, Products, etc. And Payments and Orders are in one app and Products and Customers are in another. Some of these menu links are "deep links", for example it might be a link to a particular page within the Customers module, such as Create New Customer.
We are about to start a project that will add several more modules to this suite, probably as a new .NET application. I'm thinking about doing these new modules in Silverlight (for various reasons that are not material to the question). If I were to do that, I need to make the menu look the same as the menu in ASP.NET, as the users still need to feel like they are inside one "application".
How should I organize the Silverlight project(s) so that I can "deep link" from ASP.NET pages into particular modules in the Silverlight app? What is even the best idea for creating these different Silverlight "modules"? If I had something that would've been a page in ASP.NET (for example - Create Customer), should each one of those be a separate Silverlight app? Or should it be a separate User Control? Or something else? Should I reuse our shared ASP.NET menu, and deep link to different Silverlight "modules" even within the new application? Or should I reimplement the menu in Silverlight for navigation within the app? Are there menu controls for Silverlight that look similar to ASP.NET menus (with flyout submenus in this case)? Could I maybe even share a SiteMap XML file between them?
I have been asked to join a very small team where one main developer has been buiding the web app (.NET 4.0) during ~6 months. The project should be delivered within next 2 months.
After first look at the code I can say that I would never allow it to go to production (things like catch { }, no tests at all with WebForms etc).
So the code quality is incredibly low.
My task is to improve that and still deliver the solution. So I plan to start with unit testing and MVC2 reimplementing most of the functionality (though using some of the existing code).
I estimate that I will need about 6 weeks to catch up with the current progress and be on te same functionality level as the application will be in 6 weeks.
The problem is that the main developer who has been working on the project seems to be really starting in IT and many basic things are unknown to him. It will take significant amount of time and effort to educate him how to do the proper testing, development and apply some patterns.
I am ready to take responsibility for the reimplemnting the application but at the same time I don't want the main developer to be on idle but as he won't be able to significantly contribute to the better-world project at this stage I am not sure what would the best way to keep productivity high for both of us.
Currently I think following solution is good enough: He proceeds doing what he does until I will catch up with him and then start working on a new project together.
The problem is that of course this approach is not very productive as one developer will do better-world project while the other will proceed with what he did, effectively doing similar tasks.
Another approach would be to pair and try to do things together, but again not sure how productive we will be.
Can you suggest how we could better organise the work together in order to be most efficient for the overall project?
When I turn on Code Coverage in my test settings, on a project that references the Unity DI container I get the following error:
Cannot initialize the ASP.NET project'{Project Name}'.
The event log specifies the following reason:
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Practices.Unity, Version=2.0.414.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. Strong name signature could not be verified.
I am trying to use a 3-tier architecture (UI, BAL & DAL) for my project. I have each of the tier in different physical machines.
UI - Machine 1
BAL - Machine 2
DAL - Machine 3
How can DAL & BAL interact? What would be the best way to call one component from another?
I have been creating my BLL and DAL with in the same project as my UI. These have been logical tiers in their own folder with in the same project, that's with in the same solution. I want to try to create a solution that is more like a truly multi tiered app.
I've heard people talk about using a separate projects for their DAL and BLL. My understanding is that these would be separate dlls that would contain the appropriate code for each of the these tiers. I have a few questions regarding this.
Is this a good way to do this? It seems like a logical approach. It also seems like the next step in me moving towards an architecture that's truly tiered. Should I do this differently?
Should the projects for the BLL and the DAL use the same namespace? I think I read that some people use a namespace for each of these that indicates what they are, such as BLL and DAL.
I am trying to use Domain Driven Development (DDD) for my new ASP.NET MVC2 project with Entity Framework 4. After doing some research I came up with the following layer conventions with each layer in its own class project:
[code]...
Currently my Repositories layer holds a reference to the Domain layer.From my understanding injecting a UserRepository to the UserService class works very well with unit testing as we can pass in fake user repositories.So with this architecture it looks like my Web project needs to have a references to both my Domain and Repositories layers.But is this a valid?Because historically the presentation layer only had a reference to the Business Logic layer.
We have a web solution. In it we have 2 websites and a core project in the core project are some classes that encapsulate data that a database utility class searches using sql and populates the entities. The entities are stored in generic lists.
We have just upgraded our project and I want to start using linq, I was wondering the best way to go about it. SHould I creata new linq project? Or Should I just use ling on new pages only and stick to our current data access layer for pags that already exist?
Its vital that we start using linq as it will save us time in the future
I am using asp.net 3.5 and I am trying to create a project structure (asp.net web solution with UI/Business/Data access) which would be like a base and ready for any new projects in my team and all could use this standard structure only as a base(outer boundary) and they can expand the structure. Also adding on to it I wanted to include certain features like adding libraries of reusable code/functions, so that every team member could use functions from my library within this base structure. To summarize the above, I need to create standard .net project structure/framework/architecture with resusable code library included in it. How can I do this..

I am not new to ASP.Net application development but I haven't used some of the new frameworks or features that are used in applications these days.
For cross-cutting concerns, things like: Logging, Caching and DAAB are used in projects these days to implement proven and efficient source code from either Microsoft or other third party vendors such as Log4Net for logging purposes.
I'm about to begin a new asp.net application using .net 4.0. Only concern I have is since the project calls for reporting, I cannot use SSRS with SQL Server 2008 b/c the tempate for Bus Intelligence Projects is missing from 4.0. I've been told that the next release of SQL Server 2011 (some time this year), will resolve this problem. Meanwhile, I'm wondering if the following approach would work:
1) Create the application in VS2010 using the SQL Server 2008 db.
2) Create the SSRS Bus Intelligence project using VS2008 and create a seperate website pointing to the same SQL Server 2008 Db?
Kind of a hack, but I guess the only problem with this is, the Bus Intelligence project will not be able to reference and leverage and DLL or code from the application.
how to design following small webproject and database .i am totally new in this area.
I need to quickly develop a system so that everyone can access the status of the job going online into the system
Activities
Move the job between work centers when it's completed.
Transfer button. So when design is done we should be able to click the transfer button and move the job from Design to Procurement
Here are the work centers.
plan cerement TST Shipped Each work center should have due dates User will have to update manually due date for each work center and this will be different for each job.
I'm going to have to write a big system in January with ASP.NET MVC3 / C#, and need to know how to write a system that will WORK. I do have a bit of experience with ASP.NET MVC and C# but would not call myself an expert. It needs to be extensible so that I can extend it later with new features. How would one go about this? Is there books that explains this topic in detail or should I use trial and error? In short I need to know good design practice in my code thats extend-able for the future.

After searching web, and I found that I'd better to create a web application project using my current existing website project. From solution explorer, add new project ->using existing website. My questions is: what impact will have for my current website to create the new project? Should I just convert my current website to web application? If do that, will it cuase problems on my website?
