[Solved] Model Browser

[sitefinitysteve]

Is there by any chance a clickable model browser somewhere?

I'd like to be able to click around the nodes and collections to make sure everything is working okay and browse the data...

oData service the only way?...some sort of consumer application?

Hello Steve,

If you would like to have an application that retrieves your data from the SQL server and display is to you then I am afraid we don't provide such an application nor we have plans to develop one. Basically it shouldn't be really hard to implement a simple tree-view like application that uses linq to retrieve your data and display it to you (given the fact that you have your model in place).

If you are looking for a model explorer (one that displays your clr types and properties) then we already provide such. The window you would be looking for is called OpenAccess Model Explorer and is available under View->Other windows. Be aware that this explorer would display you your clr representation of the meta model. The explorer will not show you any data from your sql server.

All the best,
Petar
