Change generated JS class name

[Andy]

I am using the MVC Helpers and would like to customize the generated Javascript - in particular, the js class name that is used.

For example, if I do something like this:

                @(Html.Kendo().Grid<ResourceViewModel>()
                    .Name("Grid")
                    .BindTo(Model.Resources)
                    .YadaYadaYada(...)
                )

... then it generates JavaScript for me like this, which creates a kendoGrid in JS:

        jQuery(function(){jQuery("#Grid").kendoGrid({ ... yada yada yada ...

I would like to change the kendoGrid class above to my own custom Widget class. So instead of kendoGrid, I have created a kendoCustomGrid which I would like to have generated instead.

What's the best way to do this?

Hi Andy,

 This is not something which Kendo  Complete for ASP.NET MVC supports out of the box. If you this is mandatory requirement you should consider modifying the source code of the Kendo.Mvc assembly. That code can be found in Kendo.Mvc\Infrastructure\Implementation\JavaScriptInitializer.cs 

 Have in mind though that Telerik does not provide support for any source code modifications.
