[Original address] ASP. NET 3.5 Extensions CTP Preview Released
[Original article publication date] Sunday, December 09,200
Earlier today, we released the first CTP preview version of ASP. NET 3.5 Extensions we have been developing (Click here to read my previous post on our product roadmap ). This preview version provides additional runtime functions for ASP. NET and. NET 3.5. You can download it here (if you want to use the MVC function, click here to download the MVC Toolkit ).
The first preview of ASP. NET 3.5 Extensions includes:
- ASP. net ajax Improvement: ASP. NET 3.5 new ASP. net ajax functions include better browser history support (backward/forward button integration, server-side history management support, etc.), and improved AJAX content link support using permanent links (permalinks, and the improvement of the additional JavaScript library.
- ASP. net mvc:This ASP. NET model, view, controller (MVC) framework provides a structured model that facilitates clear separation of concerns in web applications, facilitating unit test code and supporting TDD processes. It also provides more control over the URLs you publish in the application, as well as more control over the HTML output from the application.
- ASP. NET Dynamic Data Support: ASP. NET 3.5 Extensions provides some features that can accelerate the rapid development of data-driven web applications, and provides a wide range of frameworks (scaffolding) that will promote the use of ASP. NET WebForms and ASP. net mvc to quickly develop data-driven websites.
- ASP. NET Silverlight support: In ASP. NET 3.5 Extensions, we will provide the ability to easily integrate Silverlight into your ASP. NET application support. These support will include some new controls that allow you to integrate Silverlight video, audio, and interactive content on your website.
- ADO. NET Data Services: At the same time, we will release ADO. NET Entity Framework (Entity Framework ). This provides a new modeling framework that allows developers to define conceptual models that correspond to database data definitions. This conceptual model is closer to the realistic world outlook of information. We will also release a new data service (codenamed "Astoria") to show you the REST-based API endpoint from ASP. NET applications.
We will post many blog posts and videos in the future to discuss related new features. Click here to view a set of initial Quickstart routines, which discuss some new features of the preview version.
Below, you can find links to several tutorials I have written (and a cool TDD post by Phil Haack). These posts discuss the new ASP. NET MVC framework. I will also write more posts in the future to discuss the features unrelated to MVC in the extended preview:
- ASP. net mvc Framework (Part I): overview
- ASP. net mvc Framework (Part 1): Build MVC applications
- ASP. net mvc Framework (Part 2): URL path selection
- ASP. net mvc Framework (part 3): Upload ViewData from the Controller to the view
- ASP. net mvc Framework (part 4): Process Form editing and submission scenarios
- Scott Hanselman's ASP. net mvc preview screen play
- TDD and Dependency Injection with the ASP. net mvc Framework
- Writing Unit Tests for Controller Actions
