Your help and effort to help us (users) is best I could ever experience BUT there were really some missing parts (blank holes) in documentation or better say instructions for how to take an advantage of its funcionality (services, massager, behaviours) or avoid( replace) its limits (using events instead of propertychanged). "Feedback through support tickets made us realize that users struggled to adapt Scaffolding projects to their needs." I somehow can't agree with that. We know that especially EF Core mocked things upside down a lot. I must emphasize, that Scaff.Wizzard is (was) an essential and tremendiously helpful tool for generating solid sceleton of our applications (more than 250 related tables, 120+ views), with uniform navigation (model menu), collection and detail views so we could really focus on business "layer", data validation and reports (aka word documents and other reports). Hello guys, very sad about given decision, but I understand somehow.

Should you have questions about our decision to terminate Scaffolding Wizard-related development or the impact of this decision on a current project, please submit a support ticket via the DevExpress Support Center. We've prepared an example to demonstrate the user scenarios our new wizard will support: Implement CRUD Operations in the WPF Data Grid

The Item Source Wizard will allow you to generate simple code for CRUD operations based on your data source.

How our decision affects current Scaffolding users The wizard won’t create a complex hierarchy, so you will be able to easily adapt the generated code to your needs. While this is not good news, our experience with Visual Studio 2022 and its design time inspired us to create a new wizard that generates a simple and flexible code for CRUD operations based on a data source.

We have opted to end efforts to adapt the Scaffolding Wizard to Visual Studio 2022. We’ve been forced to make a tough decision and one that may disappoint some of our loyal users. We spent a long time trying to fix design-time issues, but ultimately realized that it’s almost impossible without reworking the entirety of the Scaffolding Wizard and its underlying structure. When Visual Studio 2022 was released, we noticed that the Scaffolding Wizard no longer had a viable path forward (due in part to significant design-time changes in Visual Studio). In recent years, we have only modified the Scaffolding Wizard to address bugs/issues. Major Visual Studio updates caused new issues: WinForms Scaffolding hanged in certain scenarios in Visual Studio 2019 and we couldn’t find a way to fix this. We could neither add new features, nor simplify Scaffolding without losing core functionality. Feedback through support tickets made us realize that users struggled to adapt Scaffolding projects to their needs. The Scaffolding Wizard could generate large projects with multiple folder levels, several classes and styles, and complex communications between different levels. The wizards were well received, so we continued to add new features to the wizard – features that made the Scaffolding increasingly complex.Īs complexity rose, so too did confusion. We developed the WPF Scaffolding Wizard rather quickly and added it to our WinForms suite a couple of years later. In 2013, we created our WPF Scaffolding Wizard to help generate a simple application from a data model. Public class MyDbContext : this blog post, we’ll quickly summarize the history behind our Scaffolding Wizard, and explain why we’ve chosen to cease additional development on the wizard itself. Note that without this NuGet package installed, you will be unable to work with entity models in this sample application.Īdd the following DbContext class descendant that will serve as the context for the DevExpress Scaffolding Wizard. Search for the Entity Framework 6 package in the online storage and click ‘Install’. Go to the Visual Studio’s Project menu and select the Manage NuGet Packages… menu item.
