MVC4 and Simple messaging system
MVC4 Developer preview with mobile support just released. And, because best way to deal with is within an application, I decide to create a simple messaging system for any site that is made with MVC.
Description:
I begin with a registered user. What he can do:
1. Create messages ( subject + body ) to send to another registered user. The list of the users on the system will be taken either from database, either from an Application variable. The message will be recorded to a database( configured by the owner of the site ) with the possibility to be send also by email
2. When login, the registered user can see the list of messages and replies send to/by him. Also, if he has unread messages he can see an advertisement.
3. The application could be seen also from a mobile device.
What should be done also:
4. The install of the application should be easy for any developer ( xcopy or some package – like Nuget or recipe)
Wish me luck to finish !
Goodluck. Hope you’ll post updates on your progress.
Hi Sir, I have a few questions regarding this.
1) Can this be used in Mvc3?
2) Can the edmx db used for this feature be implemented alongside CodeFirst?
3) Is it possible if i can integrate it using the default ASPNETDB.mdf database?
1. Yes.
2 Yes,
3 Yes.
This will be a great app. I wish you good luck.
what are tools used to connect to the oracle db,
is there any 3rd party tools using in mvc to connect OracleDb.
MVC is about database independence.
