    WebForms to Razor view converter tool

    We just love inventing tools. It’s one of those things hardcoded in our genome. There’s a great joy in seeing your invention work for you and all you have to do is sit back and sip a beer debug the hell out of it. But I digress. During the conversion of our online examples to the Razor view engine we’ve came up with a simple tool to help us. We didn’t have great hopes for it, as completely automatic conversion is hardly possible. It’s purpose was to take care of the bulk of the conversion, leaving the more fine points to the human...

    Full Razor support and examples coming in SP1 of Telerik Extensions for MVC (2010 Q3)

    We’ve “signed off” the first service release of the Telerik Extensions (2010 Q3) just a few minutes ago and it’s on its way to you. Apart from the usual fixes this release adds full support for the new Razor view engine. The official MVC 3 release has been out only for a few days, but the interest in this new view engine is deservedly high. This view engine required some tinkering under the hood of the Extensions, but it has all been taken care of. Any issues you might have had until now (nested content rendering out of place, syntax errors in template...

    Binding Telerik Grid for ASP.NET MVC to OData

    We have just made a nice demo application showing how to bind Telerik Grid for ASP.NET MVC to OData using Telerik TV as OData producer. The grid supports paging, sorting and filtering using OData’s query options. To do that we implemented a helper JavaScript routine (defined in an external JavaScript file which is included in the sample project) which is used to bind the grid. Here is how the code looks like: @(Html.Telerik().Grid<TelerikTVODataBinding.Models.Video>() .Name("Grid") .Columns(columns => { columns.Bound(v => v.ImageUrl).Sortable(false).Filterable(false).Width(200).HtmlAttributes(new { style="text-align:center" }); ...
