Working on Optional Interface options.Using a tutorial video by Todd Davis in regards to the setup of Optional Interfaces, but these questions still remain.
Question #1: Title Optional Interface Using Localization.GetString
After following the tutorial and analyzing sme of the core module Optional Interfaces, it seems to be an issue with the Public MustInherit Class tag.
Here is sample code from the "events" module
Namespace DotNetNuke.Modules.Events
Public MustInherit Class Events
Inherits EventBase
Implements Entities.Modules.IActionable
The orange section is the section is the section I believe is giving the resistance.
It appears that the name within the orange section must match exact to the end of the Namespace tag.
Here is what my version of code looks like in order for it to work correctly:
Namespace YourCompany.Modules.ModuleName
Public MustInherit Class ViewModuleName
Inherits Entities.Modules.PortalModuleBase
Implements Entities.Modules.IActionable
The problem is that I cannot match name exactly, because in order to work correctly it must be input as: ViewModuleName
And even then it throws an error mentioning that verious buttons are not a member of: 'YourCompany.Modules.ModuleName.ViewModuleName'
So I can see that the Public MustInherit Class tag is adding an extra value:
Should be: YourCompany.Modules.ModuleName
Presently: YourCompany.Modules.ModuleName.ViewModuleName
It looks like I might need to rename a few .ascx's and/or namespaces, because it has to inherit a value, I just want to be sure.
If anyone can shed some light on this, it is appreciated.
The tutorials are advanced, but seemed to skip some of the necessary pre-setup steps for understanding.
Feedback Appreciated,
