Getting Started with Dynamic Data

Please install Silverlight or click download to watch video locally.

In this video we'll build an entire ASP.NET application with ASP.NET Dynamic Data using the Northwind Data by using Dynamic Data's code generating, scaffolding and templates. The finished application is complete with AJAX Behaviors and a database layer with full CRUD functionality.

Joe,

This was a great series, thanks!  I have started a new Dynamic Data Web Site and things are looking good.  I have, however, run into a snag.  

I was able to change the insert, update, and delete behaviors to use stored procedures, no problem.  But how do you change the select to use a stored proc?  In general we do not allow users direct table access, only stored proc. access.  Further more I would like to use a stored proc to control the records that are allowed to be return. (i.e. No "discontinued" items should be returned to an item list.)  I really want to do this through the generic pages and not develop custom solutions for each page.  Any suggestions?

Thanks

Feels like MS folks were shown a Ruby on Rails demo and that sparked their minds.

All nice and shiny, but the devil is always hidden behind tiny details, for example the use of custom codes, like SPs in the above comment. One need more experience to really evaluate a beast like this. I always have a bad feeling with these Next-Next-Finish wizards. Let it prove wrong :)

OFF: Why can't I log in to MS's central ASP.NET site with Live ID? Oh, why?

Great video as always. However, I'm just learning and am a bit lost on how to replace the step where you drag the local data files to the 'App_Data' folder. How would this work with a full SQL Server back-end connection? I have no issue with the SQL-2-LINQ creation.

Thanks.

Gonna answer my own question in the event anyone had the same issue.... I edited my 'Global.asax' file to point to my 'App_Code/<MyFile>.dbml and, at that point it worked. Nothing needed to go into the 'App_Data' folder.

Here is the line of coded edited in 'Global.asax':

//model.RegisterContext(typeof(YourDataContextType), new ContextConfiguration() { ScaffoldAllTables = false }); <-- replace the 'YourDataContextType' with dbml filename minus the 'dbml' extension.

Your videos are not optimized.

Too much time to view!

But Thanks.

Where has this technology been, this technology will certainly speed up web development.

Awesome Video. The speed of development is definitely a plus,but this allows for more standardazation(at least at the start of development.
