Codename ‘DiscMaster’ – MVC 2 migration and more maps!

After following the upgrade instructions in the release notes (see previous post) i’ve now updated the sourcecode so it’s now based on MVC 2 Preview 2.

First thing to try was the new support for Areas:

areas You’ll find pretty much all the information you need on MSDN and blog articles when it comes to defining your areas and creating the initial code.

I’m convinced the areas addition is one of the key features when it comes to using ASP.NET MVC in the enterprise scope. Scoping your application thru the use of Areas is great when you consider large-scale projects where x number of developers could be working on x number of things, it not only helps the developer but also even branching strategies could benefit from this approach.

After that i had some time to wire up another map, this time it’s a map showing all the registered courses:

courses

i've decided to release the entire code on codeplex once i'm done at the project space i've recently set up (discmaster.codeplex.com), figured that's the only decent thing to do to keep it alive since i'm right now without a hosting environment so hopefully someone will pick it up and (ab)use it when it's released :)

until the next post, take care..
