Features of Generated Applications

 

AJAX-Style Adaptive Filtering And Sorting
Learn how your users can take advantage of adaptive filtering and sorting features available in applications created with Data Aquarium Framework and Web Site Factory from Code OnTime, the premier provider of code generation software for ASP.NET / AJAX.

 

Three-Level Master Detail

Learn to create multi-level master-detail pages in ASP.NET+AJAX web applications created with Code OnTime Generator and Web Site Factory. In this example we will create a 3-level master-detail page layout that links customers, orders, and order details.

 

Quick Find with Multiple Words

Users can enter multiple words in a single search field. The application framework will construct an extended WHERE clause that will probe for each word in every compatible column.

 

Code OnTime Designer

 

Use Excel to Build ASP.NET AJAX Apps

Learn to use Microsoft Excel to create modern ASP.NET/AJAX database web applications. We will demonstrate how to modify data field layouts in grid views, configure a floating data field layout for a form view, set up a virtual many-to-many field, and activate auto-completion.

 

Grouping Tabbed Data Views

Learn how to group several data views under the same tab activator in master-detail page layouts. We will show how to configure a three level master-detail page with "Customers" master presented on the top and "Orders" and "Order Details" presented at the bottom of the page on the same detail tab.
 

Building ASP.NET/AJAX Forms with Code OnTime Designer

Learn ASP.NET/AJAX web form customization with Code OnTime Designer. We will start with an automatically generated single-column AJAX web form that lists all fields on an employee record. We proceed by creating the following form layouts in real time:

  • A single column form with employee fields broken into four categories
  • A two column form with compact field layout
  • A form with four tabs for each category and fields displayed in compact layout.
  • A form with two tabs that bring up two categories each displayed in a standard layout.

 

User Controls in ASP.NET AJAX Applications

Create custom ASP.NET User Controls in ASP.NET AJAX applications generated with Code OnTime Generator and Web Site Factory for ASP.NET / AJAX. We will create a page and add four ASP.NET User Controls arranged in two rows.

 

Generate ASP.NET/AJAX web apps with Code OnTime Generator
Code OnTime Generator for Microsoft.NET creates modern ASP.NET/AJAX web applications with live ad hoc data export and reporting without external dependencies.

 

Reporting

 

Learn to create ad hoc reports in Web Site Factory projects.
 

Part1

We will show how to create an ad hoc report based on a business object layer class generated by Code OnTime Generator. Then we will replace the business object layer object with a ControllerDataSource component.

 

Part2

We will create a dataset with a table adapter based on a free-form SQL query or optional stored procedure. Then we will replace ControllerDataSource component in the AJAX web application created in the first part of the tutorial with an ObjectDataSource hooked to the data table adapter.

 

Custom RDLC Reports for AJAX Web Apps
Data Aquarium Framework automatically creates RDLC reports in WYSIWYG style at runtime for any data grid views and replicates sort order and filters specified by the end users.You can quickly create custom reports that have the same behavioral properties.  

 

Security

 

Pages

Learn to secure access to pages in ASP.NET AJAX applications created with Web Site Factory and Code OnTime Generator. Standard ASP.NET Membership provides an excellent mechanism to protect your site.

 

Fields

Learn to secure access to data fields in data views of ASP.NET AJAX applications created with Web Site Factory and Code OnTime Generator. Standard ASP.NET Membership roles are used to control who is allowed to read/write field values.

 

Actions

Learn to secure availability of actions in data views of ASP.NET AJAX applications created with Web Site Factory and Code OnTime Generator. Standard ASP.NET Membership roles are used to control who is allowed to execute actions.

 

Actions

  

Learn to configure the client-side action state machine to create complex AJAX-enabled user interface workflow sequences without writing a single line of code.

 

Part 1

We will implement a Navigate action that brings the user to a dedicated Customer Information page.

 

Part 2

We will implement custom Save and Cancel actions that return the user to the previous page.

Application Development

 
Learn how to enable batch/mass editing in ASP.NET AJAX applications. Batch editing will allow your end-users to modify multiple records at the same time.
 
Learn to create input field validators based on regular expressions to detect errors in user input and/or to provide automatic formatting of input values in AJAX applications created with Web Site Factory and Code OnTime Generator for ASP.NET/AJAX.
 
Learn to configure a universal lookup functionality to provide extensible data structures for your ASP.NET/AJAX web applications. We will provide an overview of typical universal lookup architecture.
 
Universal Lookup, Part 2
We will refine the standard generated lookups with a drop down list of categories, dependent radio button list of subcategories, and list box of suppliers.

 

Data-Enabled Modal Popups

Learn to create a data-enabled modal popup that can be invoked by end-user on an arbitrary data record in a Web Site Factory web application. 

 

Multi Field Lookups

Learn to configure a multi field lookup to copy several fields from the lookup view into the details record. The same technique also works when a user creates a child record of a selected master. read

 

Many-To-Many Virtual Field in 3 Minutes

We will show you how to set up a many-to-many field derived from a junction table and lookup in under three minutes without writing a single line of code in ASP.NET+AJAX web application generated with Code OnTime Generator and Web Site Factory premium project.
 

Many-To-Many Fields

Learn to defined many-to-many fields in ASP.NET AJAX applications without writing a single line of code with Code OnTime Generator. We will show you how to use the Check Box List lookup style with Target Controller property to create many-to-many fields. Automatic insertion and deletion of records in the junction table is supported and explained in the code walkthrough. read

 

Business Rules

 

Learn to create server-side calculations in ASP.NET AJAX applications triggered in response to the changes made to the fields presented in a web browser. We will create a business rule method to calculate order shipping information for a selected customer in a Web Site Factory project.
 
Learn to attach server-side business rules to AJAX-enabled user interface of Web Site Factory applications. Implement business rules to execute custom SQL statements or stored procedures in response to user actions
 
Learn to define declarative code formulas to introduce just-in-time calculations in ASP.NET AJAX applications without writing a business rule to support the server-side calculations. The code generator will automatically produce a business rule to incorporate your formula. read
  

User Interface

 

Custom Form Templates
