Am I the only one tired of clicking through the "External Assembly Reference" dialog when adding business rules? Or just the only one using external assemblies?
Here is what I would like:
* a set of attributes: [OnBeforeInsert], [OnBeforeUpdate], [BusinessRule]
* maybe some parameter for the attributes to be able to define post and pre steps: [OnBeforeInsert(Order=Post)]
* decorate the methods in the assembly with those attributes
* point AA to the assembly. Have it automatically link the business rules and entity events.
* Bonus points:
+ pull the XMLDOC and put it as description on the business rules.
+ "prune" missing methods (the ones that are still defined in AA but got removed from the assembly)
It should also be possible to create such a tool externally, if anyone is interested in an open source (or commercial) endeavor.
Have been using External Assemblies for QuickForm/Control event handlers and I feel teh smae pain there are well.
Have been wondering what an improved experience would look/work like - great ideas Nick.
Believe it or not, you're not the only one using external assemblies
There are quite a few places where the experience could be flattened for the user.
