Using Infragistics controls with Web Client Software Factory?
posted

Hi,

I am beginning a new web application and am considering using the Microsoft Web Client Software Factory (WCSF) as a basis. My question is: Can I expect that most/all Infragistics controls will work fine together with the WCSF? Especially the grid controls...which will be very important in our application.

We were previously considering using the Microsoft MVC framework, and want to use Infragistics controls. We abandoned Microsoft MVC because:

  • It appeared that there would be difficulties in making the Infragistics controls work smoothly with MVC
  • Our developers are primarily experienced with ASP.NET WinForms development
  • We do not want/need to get into clientside(Javascript)-based controls at this stage

However, after my first look at WCSF, it seems very similar to Microsoft MVC...because of the similar Model-View-Presenter separation. Can I expect similar issues with WCSF, with respect to the Infragistics controls?

    Hello joelvogt,

    Thank you for posting on Infragistics forum.

    WCSF is an extension of Visual Studio 2008/2010 and our controls should work with it properly. You can test the controls that you need for development with WCSF and if they meet your requirements you can use them in your project.

    If you still do not abandoned the idea of using MVC in your project I can recommend you to use our new product “ASP.NET MVC and jQuery Controls for Web Developers” -http://ko.infragistics.com/dotnet/netadvantage/jquery-controls.aspx#Overview – that is specially designed for MVC and is fully compatible with this technology.

    Let me know if you need further information regarding this question.
