Found out how to make most mmWebForm controls work in HTML designer with "Intellisense" -- popup elements and values within the tags.
1) go to:
http://www.dandyvibe.com/Default.aspx?g=posts&t=23Get zip file containing "Mere Mortals Framework Web Forms.xsd" at the end that post.
2) Unzip into C:\Program Files (or wherever you've installed VS.Net 2003)
...\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\Packages\schemas\xml
3) In your .Aspx file edit the body tag to include:
<body ... xmlns:mm="urn:http://schemas.oakleafsd.com/MM/WebControls" ...>
That's it!
NOTE:
a) Kevin may wish to change the Visual Studio description and friendly name, and xml namespace to something that works better for Oakleaf. I set them to:
vs:friendlyName="MM Web Forms Controls"
xmlns:mm="urn:http://schemas.oakleafsd.com/MM/WebControls"
b) I couldn't quickly figure out how to make asp schema elements work inside of mm: containers, for example,
... inside mm:mmDataGrid. Please someone do this and upload a better .xsd.
Tip: I usually create a temporary asp:DataGrid, sort out the inner controls, and then paste back into the mmDataGrid...
Next up: Getting MM classes and MM webforms stubs in the VS.NET "Add New Item" dialog. See picture in help page: MM .NET Developer's Guide/Creating Custom Business Rule Objects. There's a suspicious "MM .NET" category not actually in my dialog. Somehow "ADONET PowerToys" did it, shouldn't be that hard. Please someone figure this out too.
Thanks!
