Hi,
(I have posted this thread in the architecture topic. However I think it might be more appropriate to post it here. Please let me know how to move thread from 1 topic to another so I don't double post which might tick some one off! Thanks)
I want to create an 5-tier web application using llblgen. Let's say I have an employer table. I like the idea of using EmployerManager and EmployerGuiHelper that HnD used. I, however, prefer to use adapter instead of the selfservicing template. I also prefer to use the VS designer and click/drag/drop instead of writing much code behind. I want the llblgen to be encapsulated from the GUI developer.
In asp.net, using ODS I can specify the select/update/delete/insert method to bind to. Using llblgendatasource it does not allow me to specify the individual select/update/delete/insert function to bind to (it uses dataaccessadapter, entitycollection, and entityfactory). Though I can specify the filter criteria using RelationPredicateBucket and code behind as in http://weblogs.asp.net/fbouma/archive/2006/06/09/LLBLGen-Pro-v2.0-with-ASP.NET-2.0.aspx but as mentioned above I don't want the GUI developer to have to learn llblgen.
So, here are my questions:
1) Is it possible for the GUI developer to use ODS and bind to llblgen functions to select/update/delete/insert record to persistence dbase using the adpater method (preferably with minimal code behind).
2) Is it possible for the GUI developer to use llblgendatasource and specify with select/update/delete/insert method of the entitycollection or dataaccessadapter to bind to?
Thanks a bunch,
BZ
