The conversation has started …

ReMixUK 08 is announced. Go register now.

This is going to be a great event, with some great speakers lined up; I can’t say who just yet, but keep an eye on the site and blog and I’m sure details will be released in time. We’re also going to have a great community involvement, with a really funky community room, great speakers and some fun events.

Extending Dynamic Data

At the NextGenUG Fest I gave a talk on Dynamic Data and had a couple of good questions to follow up on. The first was how to sit Dynamic Data on top of existing data layers rather than using LINQ-SQL or EF; the answer is to create a DataModelProvider and associated TableProvider and ColumnProvider to expose the metadata that Dynamic Data requires. There are some samples on the Dynamic Data Samples Site

The second questions was how to hook authorization into Dynamic Data, so that columns/actions only become available depending upon the users’ roles. There is a good set of notes and samples at http://csharpbits.notaclue.net/2008/06/dynamicdata-project-file-update.html.
