I purchased LS3.11 as I really liked the Domain Driven Design concept but have found difficulty in utilizing it in ASP.NET web applications. I have followed the good example application called WebGrid which converts the Domain Model into something usable for the ASP.NET webforms design method. In trying to follow the prescribed or best practices for Domain design I thought that I would give MVC or at least the Dynamic Data methods a try. I followed the nice screencast for the Dynamic Data website creation which looked to be very simple but in doing this with Visual Studio 2010 and ASP.NET 4 I found that there is a problem because the LinqDataSource is not used any longer, replaced by the EntityDataSource. Therefore the question is, can I use LightSpeed with this data source and if so how? |

LightSpeed doesn't depend on the LinqDataSource -- in fact one of the steps in building a Dynamic Data site with LightSpeed is to go through the autogenerated pages and replace LinqDataSource with LightSpeedLinqDataSource. So I would expect that the same thing would apply to VS2010: create a Dynamic Data site in the normal way, then go through replacing all references to EntityDataSource with LightSpeedLinqDataSource. However, we've not had the opportunity to test this, so it's possible there may be other changes in Dynamic Data 4.0 which mean additional steps are required. I'd suggest giving it a try, and if it doesn't work smoothly, let us know and we'll investigate further. |
