Is there any attribute or other method of getting T4 to skip trying to transform custom methods? Where it shows a warning saying T4MVC.tt doesn't support MyController.Method because it doesn't return a supported ActionResult type? For example: On a BaseController having this method: public UrlHelper GetUrlHelper() { return new Ur...
I have the following line: <link href="<%= Links.Content.Site_css %>" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> which is rendered to <link href="Views/Shared/%3C%25=%20Links.Content.Site_css%20%25%3E" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> So expression is not executed. If I remove quotes: <link href=<%= Links.Content.Site_css %> rel="styl...
I'm running into an error with T4MVC and named parameters. I have a controller: public class ProductsController : Controller { public virtual ViewResult List(int page = 1) { // foo.DoSomething() } } It seems T4MVC creates an overload List() as well. The result is that calling myProductsController.List(3) correct...
There seems to be no extension method to include some arbitrary route values that normally I would expect to go into the querystring. Old code: <%: Html.ActionLink(Model.ParentMessage.Category.Text, "index", null, new { category = Model.ParentMessage.CategoryID }, new { })%> I want to change it to this but it takes the category as an...
I'm having a problem with T4MVC losing the code it generated each time I do an SVN update. I can fix it by deleting the .generated.cs files and re-running the template. But this is proving a bit tiresome. Is there something I am missing? First a little background information ... I am using C# v4, VS2010 and ASP.NET MVC2. I use subver...
I find myself pasting this code over and over on many views that deal with forms. Is there a simple approach to refactor the following markup from a view in MVC2? The only changing part is the route for the cancel link (LocalizedSaveButton and LocalizedCancelLink are helper methods I created). I tried extracting it to a PartialView but I...
Hi, I'm trying to use the T4MVC project from the MVCContrib project on codeplex (v2.6.13). I'm using ASP.NET MVC 2 RTM running against .NET 4 in Visual Studio 2010. Using the Default project template that you get when creating a new MVC 2 Web Application I modified the Home ActionLink in the Master Page to: <%= Html.ActionLink("Home", ...
Why does T4MVC generate controller default constructor? Just curious. ...
Just added the T4MVC templates to my project, built and then tried to use the cool new features it introduces. I tried to update RedirectToAction("NotFound", "Error"); to RedirectToAction(MVC.Error.NotFound); I get the following error at build: Argument 1: cannot convert from 'method group' to 'System.Web.Mvc.ActionResult' Also, i...
I'm very new to VS2010, so this is more a question about using Visual Studio 2010 than T4MVC. Anyway, I wanted to remove T4MVC from my solution, so I deleted the two files from my root directory. However, when I rebuild and debug my solution, I still see compilation warnings associated with T4MVC.tt. What step am I missing here? Th...
Just heard about T4MVC but i can't get it to work in my sample project (ASP.NET MVC 2, Visual Studio 2008). I get the following erros when trying to build the project: Error 1 The type or namespace name 'Account' does not exist in the namespace 'Northwind.Web.MVC' (are you missing an assembly reference?) C:\Users\Bruno\Documents\My ...
Hi all, this may or may not be possible (and could well be in the docs but i've just missed it). How do i structure a Url.Action() inside my view using T4MVC that will allow me to use jQuery selectors. I've been attempting the following (in my javascript) without success: function cancelHoldBooking() { var url = '<%= Url.Action(MV...
I just create an empty MVC2 project. Add an Area and a controller and a view to it. Include T4MVC files into the project and run the custom tool. Everything is generated except the ViewNames for the views in the Area. My tree structure: Areas MyArea Controllers MyTestController.cs Views MyTest MyTestView.aspx MySecondTestVie...
