I would like to create a project structure with nested areas. For instance I have a "Home" area and underneath this I would like the "News" area that handles it's own route registration and will properly find views when a route points to a controller in the "News" area. By changing the "News" area name to be "Home/News" instead of simply "News", the proper views are found. In the main Global.asax.cs, I instantiate all of the areas ("Home" and "News") and register them individually because the RegisterAllAreas() function only finds areas one level deep (i.e. it only finds and registers the "Home" area).
Has anyone else tried something similar? Is this a major hack or can this be a stable long-term solution? Any advice you can offer is much appreciated.
