ASP.Net MVC Membership Starter Kit
Yesterday, I read a cool blog post from Troy Goode about his new CodePlex project MvcMembership. I also noticed his call for help, so I decided to dedicate some of my evening hours to his project. Almost every (ASP.NET) website is using some form of authentication, in most cases based on ASP.NET membership. With this in mind, Troy started an ASP.NET MVC version of this. The current release version provides a sample application containing some membership functionality: After an evening of contributing code, there's additional functionality in the source control system:

ASP.NET MVC Framework out on CodePlex
This morning, I was browsing the new projects page on CodePlex and noticed something nice! The ASP.NET MVC team already rumoured around making the ASP.NET MVC framework source code available on CodePlex, but here it is: the ASP.NET MVC project on CodePlex. The CodePlex project does not allow people to make their own contributions, but you can easily look under the hood or fix bugs for your production environment. How cool is that! Happy coding! Update 4:45 PM: Seems like I've stolen the thunder from Scott Guthrie :-) To be complete: the official announcement was made a little bit later than my unofficial announcement. You can read about it here.

ASP.NET MVC - Testing issues Q and A
When playing around with the ASP.NET MVC framework and automated tests using Rhino Mocks, you will probably find yourself close to throwing your computer trough the nearest window. Here are some common issues and answers: A: When testing a controller action which expects Request.Form to be a NameValueCollection, a NullReferenceException is thrown... This is due to the fact that Request.Form is null. Use Scott's helper classes for Rhino Mocks and add the following extension method: [code:c#] public static void SetupFormParameters(this HttpRequestBase request) { SetupResult.For(request.Form).Return(new NameValueCollection()); } [/code]

ASP.NET MVC framework - Security
Some posts ago, I started playing with the ASP.NET MVC framework. In an example I'm creating, I'm trying to add Forms-based security. "Classic" ASP.NET offers a nice and easy way to set security on different pages in a web application, trough Web.config. In the example I'm building, I wanted to allow access to "/Entry/Delete/" only to users with the role "Administrator". So I gave the following snip a try: [code:c#] <location path="/Entry/Delete"> <system.web> <authorization> <allow roles="Administrators"/> <deny users="*"/> </authorization> </system.web> </location> [/code]

ASP.NET MVC Framework - Basic sample application
You might have noticed that I'm quite enhousiast about the new ASP.NET MVC framework. Basically, this new ASP.NET MVC framework is an alternative to standard ASP.NET webforms, with some advantages: For more information and a step-by-step tutorial, check Scott Guthrie's blog: For an article I'm working on, I am writing a sample application using this framework. This sample application is a very basic photo album website, listing some albums and photo's. Anyone who's interested in a sample MVC application (no data entry yet!) can download it.
