Overview Web Pages MVC Web Forms ASP.NET Framework
ASP.NET MVC Controller Request (Controller\Action) Model View
ASP.NET MVC Controller Route Handler http://localhost/Event/List Model View
Why ASP.NET MVC • More control over HTML and JavaScript • Clean separation of Concerns • No ViewState or Post Back events • Test Driven Development • Cleaner and SEO friendly URLs • ASP.NET Providers (Session, Caching, Member Ship) works • Easy integration with Client Side libraries • Not a replacement of Web Forms
ASP.NET MVC • Visual Studio 2012 • Visual Studio 2010 • Visual Studio 2008 SP1 + Download and Install MVC Package
ASP.NET MVC Request Flow View Request View Engine Perform Routing Response Execute Controller/Action Create HTTP Handler Create Controller
Benefits….. • Post back • ViewState • Tricky page life cycle Interview Questions No Design Time Support
Model • Core of your Application • Contains business logic , data models( View Models), Validation… etc • Any data access technology can be used like Entity Framework, ADO.NET or any other
Controller • Controls the execution flow • Executes logic, Load the data and chooses the view • Can call other controller, redirect to other URLs
View • Responsible for displaying UI. Contains information for presentation, formatting, searching, sorting.. • Knows the models and display the data accordingly (No logic here) • HTML helpers are used for generating the mark up • Can be used with loosely typed and strongly typed data
HTML Helpers • A static methods that returns the html string • Can have our own custom HTML helper methods • Few are like • Html.ActionLink() • Html.BeginForm() • Html.CheckBox() • Html.DropDownList() • Html.EndForm() • Html.Hidden() • Html.ListBox() • Html.Password() • Html.RadioButton() • Html.TextBox()
