C# - Using ELMAH With Areas In MVC 2?
Jan 24, 2011I'm following this blog post about setting up ELMAH with MVC: [URL] I've only done part 1. Everything works correctly if I simply go to the Home controller, and then cause an error. I can view /elmah.axd as well, and my errors are logging in the database correctly.
However, I've added an area to my application named Admin. If I navigate to /Admin, I receive the following error:
System.MissingMethodException: No parameterless constructor defined for this object.
public override IController CreateController(RequestContext requestContext, string controllerName)
{
var controller = base.CreateController(requestContext, controllerName); //Error here
var c = controller as Controller;
I'm assuming this has something to do with my Area.
EDIT for jfar:
For instance, I have an Employees controller in my Admin area:
public class EmployeesController : Controller
{
private IEmployeesRepository employeesRepository;
public EmployeesController(IEmployeesRepository employeesRepository)
{
this.employeesRepository = employeesRepository;
}
//...
}
How To Use An Areas Mechanism With MVC 1
Apr 14, 2010To use separation of concern and to optimize the clearness of the controllers we decided to split each action of a controller into different controllers (FunctionalLocationEditController, FunctionalLocationCreateController and such).
Problem now is the Global.asax is currently a bit big for just a few pages registered in routes.
We would need to use an area type of mechanism but for business reason we are not ready to upgrade just yet to MVC2.
Basically, is there a way in MVC1 to map the Urls to something like <folder>/<controller>/<action> ?
MVC :: Use Areas Or Not In Web Configure?
Jan 18, 2010Been starting a new project (MVC 2) based on the first version of the same application (MVC 1).In the first we breaked out Controllers and Views into seperate projects, which resuted in a clean and organized structure.Now with version 2, I've been reading about this "Areas".Keeping the old structure and using areas sounds like overkill to me. Keeping the old way OR use Areas is what I'm trying to decide on.Just wanted to hear your thoughts about this.... Is it really that usefull (ie have other benifits)? No use to make some major changes just because something is there IMHO

Jan 29, 2011I'm starting a new ASP.NET MVC project, and I decided to put my controllers in a different assembly.

View 1 RepliesMVC - Share Partials Between Areas
Mar 5, 2011is there some way to share a partial razor view between areas? For example a login partial, it is found if i use @Html.Partial("_LoginPartial") but the URLs Html.ActionLink generates are local to the calling area (even though the partial itself is not part of the area).
_LoginPartial.cshtml is in /Views/Shared/_LoginPartial.cshtml
Calling view is inside /Areas/Somearea/Views
Links generated are like: [URL]
But should always be: [URL]
Partial view source:
@if(Request.IsAuthenticated) {
<text>Welcome <b>@Context.User.Identity.Name</b>!
[ @Html.ActionLink(@Messages.Logout, "Logout", "Account") ]</text>
}
else {

View 4 RepliesHow To Structure MVC 2 Project With Areas Sensibly
Aug 24, 2010I want to structure my ASP.NET MVC 2 web application sensibly using Areas. The application consists of the two main parts Website which is the default part and Dashboard which administrates the site using a CMS. (Probably, more Areas will follow later on.)
How do I structure my project best? Should I ...
create the Area Dashboard and put the stuff belonging to the Website part into the main application folder or should I create both Areas Website and Dashboard?
Additionally, where should I place my Entity Data Model and the corresponding Repository classes that have to be accessed by both Areas?
MVC :: Custom Error Pages For Different Areas?
Feb 6, 2011I have two areas: Frontend and Backend - I would like to have two different error pages - so I have two files NotFound in /Areas/Frontend/Views/Shared/NotFound and /Areas/Backend/Views/Shared/NotFound. I have added also to Web.config in area Frontend:
<customErrors mode="On" defaultRedirect="Error">
<error statusCode="403" redirect="NoAccess" />
<error statusCode="404" redirect="/Areas/Frontend/Views/Shared/NotFound" />
</customErrors>
and in area Backend in Web.config:
<customErrors mode="On" defaultRedirect="Error">
<error statusCode="403" redirect="NoAccess" />
<error statusCode="404" redirect="/Areas/Backend/Views/Shared/NotFound" />
</customErrors>
But when I come in bad website url - for example: http://localhost/Backend/blablabla I don't see my NotFound website but:
Server Error in '/' Application.
The resource cannot be found.
Description:
HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.
Requested URL: /Backend/blablabla

View 8 RepliesVb.net - Placing The Same Control In Different Areas Of A Page?
Feb 4, 2010This page is a directory search, it has controls identified by record ID, however there exists a situation where there can be more than one result with the same record ID, thus making .NET barf. I had originally implemented a check that just didn't put the control on the page, if it was already there, but we've been getting negative feedback.
My question is this: Is there a way to put the same control in two places at once, for instance having if a user checks one, the corresponding one checks as well? I'm not terribly well versed in how .NET behaves, but I'll try to provide as much additional context as possible, if needed.
EDIT: Here's the updated code that generates the controls by looping over a datatable of results
Dim cbxSendInfo As CheckBox
Dim strCheckboxID As String = "cbxSendInfo-" & drOrganizer("ID") & "-" & i
Debug.text = Debug.text & " Loading Checkbox (" & strCheckboxID & ")...<br />"
cbxSendInfo = New CheckBox
cbxSendInfo.ID = strCheckboxID
cbxSendInfo.enableViewState = true
And here's the code that finds the controls and builds the contact list:
Dim strCheckboxID As String = "cbxSendInfo-" & drOrganizer("ID") & "-" & i
Dim cbxSendInfo As CheckBox = Me.tblResults.FindControl(strCheckboxID)
If cbxSendInfo.Checked Then
alOrganizers.Add(drOrganizer("ID"))
End If
Where drOrganizer("ID") is the record ID, and i is the result record number.
I know this is a terrible way to do this, at least from my background, but like I said, this is inherited code that's been hacked to pieces.

Setting The Application Focus On Other Areas Of A Form?
Jun 24, 2010I am not sure how to explain my current issue. Right now I have a Form that spans a couple of pages. I have divided the Form into multiple section as well including a File Upload section, a File Download section, and have an 'Update' button at the bottom of the Form. I also have Error labels within each section, and have an Error label at the bottom of the Form under the 'Update' button.The problem that I am experiencing right now is that when I produce one of these errors, the Form automatically displays the very top of the page. So in other words, if the error message is displayed at the bottom of the Form, the user has no idea unless they scroll all the way down.Is there anyway to keep the application focus at the area where the button is clicked on? This way if the user produces an error, they will see it right away.

Nov 16, 2010I've seen a few postings about MVC's inability to recognize a web.config in the areas sub folder.
I have a situation where each area is in a separate solution/project. There is history and organizational goals that prevents us from following the current standard. Is there anyway possible mechanism for me to dynamically load the web.config located anywhere within the area?
I've looked at the WebConfigManager but I believe that just opens the config and returns a configuration object. It doesn't really load the web.config in the current context.
MVC :: UrlHelper Extension Methods For Areas (Best Practices)
Apr 20, 2010In the previous version of our application we worked one we used MVC 1, so no area's. Following the ASP.NET MVC Best Practices by Kazi Manhur, I Created Extension methods of UrlHelper to generate your url from Route
Now with the new version, we are using MVC 2 and Areas. I was just wondering if one should implement it as before or have a new "best practice" regarding this emerged?
What I'm doing right now is:
1) Create a route in my area's route registration:
[Code]....
2) Creat an UrlHelper Extension method:
[Code]....
3) then just call it like this:
[Code]....
While typing this I started wondering what is the use of the ID you specify for the Area route..cant one just call the route using that?

Jan 24, 2011I'm researching how Portable Areas work with the MVC Contrib project. I've been reading a couple good blog posts and tutorials like the following:

And in them they mention a method call to perform after defining your routes in the area:

I don't see that method call anywhere. Googling it did not seem to provide much. Is this method call gone? Or am I just not understanding the intent?
