Updated Release: ASP.NET 4 Providers for AppFabric Caching

stefsch — Mon, 31 Oct 2011 23:48:41 GMT

Update: The ASP.NET 4 providers for AppFabric Caching are now available as part of the Windows Server AppFabric v1.1 CTP release. For the latest and most up-to-date providers please download and install the Windows Server AppFabric v1.1 CTP.

For more information on the Windows Server AppFabric v1.1 CTP: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh351318.aspx
For information on installing and using the ASP.NET providers for AppFabric: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh361705.aspx

This release contains two prototype ASP.NET 4 providers that use Windows Server AppFabric Caching as a backing store. The release includes a prototype session state provider and a prototype output cache provider - both of which use Windows Server AppFabric Caching.

Note: The providers have been updated with the Refresh 1 - July 2010 release. New functionality includes: configurable connection retry parameters, additional configuration settings for the session state provider, the output cache provider uses the same model for declaring connection information as the session state provider, and both providers support programmatically specifying connection information as an alternative to static configuration.

See the document in the download .zip for for more information on software pre-requisites when using the providers.

The prototypes are being posted as an early preview to try out and provide feedback. Feel free to post questions and feedback on the following forum: http://forums.asp.net/22.aspx

Updated Release: Dynamic Data 4.0 Samples (Oct 20, 2010)

jsgoupil — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 18:54:38 GMT

ASP.NET Dynamic Data 4.0 Samples

Dynamic Data Prototypes

This sample shows some of the things the ASP.NET team prototyped but did not offically make it into .NET 4. You can see examples of how to build advanced filters for Dynamic Data pages, examples of loading metadata from memory instead of on the actual objects, a field template for display images and much more.

Scaffold Demo

This is a simple application that shows what a fully scaffolded application looks like. It is basically the Dynamic Data project template with the Northwind database added, and with a LINQ for SQL Class generated for all tables. The data model is registered in the Global.asax file and scaffolding is enabled. This shows what a Dynamic Data Web site can do without requiring any code from you.

Double Column

This sample shows how to take two columns from the database and expose them in one single column in the data bound control. This is an advanced sample that shows how a field template control can use the Dynamic Data API's to get access to data from other columns and still keep the metadata driven display formatting.

DynamicDataSProc

This is a sample that shows how to use stored procedures with Dynamic Data. In the example the Contacts table in the Linq to SQL designer is mapped to used stored procedures for Insert, Update and Delete. Then there is a custom page for Contacts that overrides the OnSelecting event in the LinqDataSource and calls a stored procedure to return the data. The stored procedure supports server side paging, sorting and filtering.
