As some of you already now, I am about to embark on a much needed vacation. I will be gone for just under two weeks starting 3/12, and will be trying to disconnect from the technical world as much as possible. However, upon my return I have big plans on blog articles and yet again would like to get feedback and recommendations from others on things that they would like to see. Below is a sampling of the items to come shortly after my return on 3/24.
This is just a sampling of the "high demand" items that I have had in my queue, for quite a long time. I've been working on reducing the backlog a lot over the past few weeks and hope to hit the ground running upon my return. If you have any suggestions please post them below! If you notice delayed responses from me between 3/11 and 3/24, I apologize and will get back to you soon!
Hi Mitchel,I would like to read about:- Developing a module using Linq2Sql = another kind of DAL using "best practices"- Usage of the "StarterKit" (vci) of the current DNN version (5.x comes with a C# module template). In other words: what's your current recommended way to set up and use the development environment ... should be updated as new versions of dnn/the tools get available (VS 2010...).- How to develop a module for 5.x and make it available to 4.x (easy way? steps?)Thanks for ANY posts - I will come back often!
As for LINQ to SQL, that is one that I will sadly not be doing, it is not a development methodology that I believe in, so more than likely it will not show up here.As for development with the new starter kit, I have no new recommendations. I recommend the use of the install version of DNN and the compiled module templates...For building for DNN 5 and making available for 4.x, that is not possible. If you want DNN 5 features, you must do DNN 5 and the version that you build against is the minimum version that can be used.
