PostSharp

[mchastings]

Hello,

I am new to PostSharp and AOP so I apoligize if this obvious. I will assume everyone here is familiar with SubSonic. We use SS to generate active record classes for our Asp.NET application. It generates nice ActiveRecord objects somewhat like :

class Widget
}

public Widget()

public string WidgetName
public string WidgetDesc

public Save()

public static Destroy(int id)
}


This is nice when I want to access the database, but it seems irresponsible to pass around an object with so much power. For example if I have a WebForm that displays a widget, I don't want the developer colding the webform to be tempted to call the Save() or Destroy() methods instead of using my business services.


Is there a way to use PS to transform the above class into something like this.


class Widget
}

public string WidgetName
public string WidgetDesc

}



Thank you for your help,

Mitch

Hi,

This is pretty easy to do, but you have to use PostSharp Core for this... which is no that easy .
