ASP.net MVC 3 Improvements

-
• The Razor View Engine


o http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2010/07/02/introducing-razor.aspx

Some new Razor features include the following:

• @model syntax for specifying the type being passed to the view.

• @* *@ comment syntax.

• The ability to specify defaults (such as layoutpage) once for an entire site.

• The Html.Raw method for displaying text without HTML-encoding it.

• Support for sharing code among multiple views (_viewstart.cshtml or _viewstart.vbhtml files).

Razor also includes new HTML helpers, such as the following:

• Chart. Renders a chart, offering the same features as the chart control in ASP.NET 4.

• WebGrid. Renders a data grid, complete with paging and sorting functionality.

• Crypto. Uses hashing algorithms to create properly salted and hashed passwords.

• Support for Multiple View Engines

o The Add View dialog box in ASP.NET MVC 3 lets you choose the view engine you want to work with, and the New Project dialog box lets you specify the default view engine for a project. You can choose the Web Forms view engine (ASPX), Razor, or an open-source view engine such as Spark, NHaml, or NDjango.



• Controller Improvements

Global Action Filters

Sometimes you want to perform logic either before an action method runs or after an action method runs. To support this, ASP.NET MVC 2 provided action filters. Action filters are custom attributes that provide a declarative means to add pre-action and post-action behavior to specific controller action methods. However, in some cases you might want to specify pre-action or post-action behavior that applies to all action methods. MVC 3 lets you specify global filters by adding them to the GlobalFilters collection. For more information about global action filters, see the following resources:

Visual Studio debuggin perfromance Improvement.

Solution Improving Visual studio debugging performance. 1. Disable Intellitrace completely 2. Tools -> Options -> IntelliTrace -> [ ] Enable IntelliTrace 3. Delete all the Visual studio breakpoints a. You may need to delete all your breakpoints---note that you need to click the "delete all breakpoints" button (or use Ctrl-Shft-F9), NOT just delete them one by one. If Visual Studio has mangled your solution settings the latter will not work. You may need to add a breakpoint first, in order for this to work (clever, eh?) i. If worst comes to worst, you may need to delete your .suo file and let Visual Studio start a new one from scratch. Note that you will lose your personal solution configuration settings, however (only for this solution, not any others). However, you may want to move/rename the file temporarily until you determine whether or not this is the problem; that way, you can always move it back. I have seen some online resources recommend del...
