Comment on NDjango: Getting cozy with ASP.MVC by RobertTheGrey

Hey Mike,

This looks like an awesome laundry list of features! I'm gonna have to take this baby for a spin sometime soon! Been having a look at Bistro recently, very similar to the OpenRasta style of doing MVC. I really am attracted by the RESTful approach to MVC - seems very neat.

Anyways, keep up the good work,
All the best,
Rob

Sorry. Some last minute problems with the setup - I should've hold on with the post. Tomorrow I will make it available for everybody, but for now feel free to download the source and build it for yourself http://bistro-framework.googlecode.com/svn/Bistro/branches/WithMethodsEngine/ProjectExtender

Mike - this looks fantastic! Is there an official release for this, or do you suggest building from Bistro/branches/WithMethodsEngine/ProjectExtender ?

Did you try to kill it? copy the content into your own and remove the collection?

Thanks Mike - yeah unfortunately I haven't had any luck modifying it. It's a ReadOnlyCollection in some sort of COM wrapper it seems and any time you try and modify the set by adding items it throws a wobbly. Oh well, I'll just have to be happy with the extra tab until I can figure it out.

Thanks again...

This is exactly the difference between the old (beta2) design and what we have now in RC. Nobody is going to do your work for you - how do you want stuff combined with what's already there is up to you. When your source provides a brand new completion set the standard completion presenter just shows it in a separate tab. With the old design this was the only option immediately available (unless you write your own presenter). Now through the completion session you have access to the existing completion set and, I think you can try to mess with it in some way. I have to admit though that in my scenario it was not necessary and I did not try it myself. In my experience modifying the existing completion sets can be tricky

Hey Mike, Great series on building this editor, I've been following it with great interest. Regarding the new Augment methods, you mention that you can also add/filter existing completion sets. I've been playing around with this and all I can get so far is a new Completion Set "tab" showing up next to the "All" tab and my completion items are not merged in alphabetically with the main "All" list - my terms only exist in my tab list for some reason. Did you find this a problem for your completion sets? Or do you do something special to merge your items in amongst all the other HTML tags etc? Keep up the great posts! All the best...
