Exporting Win Model to Blazor on the fly

created 6 days ago

We'd like to create a new application in XAF.

Requirement is fast and available by browser.

Winforms is faster than web

So XAF would be an ideal framework, if speed is an issue, they can use the winforms version, if they want to do their stuff externally, they can go webbased.

Problem is the Model Storage in the database. I understand the core base is WinForms , because you have no model editor in the blazor version, but we do in Winforms. And we like to have a (totally) different Model per Tenant.

Is it possible to take the model of Winforms and automaticly uses this for Blazor (i can understand limitations, like editors and so, but that should be considered development and using only default editors, of make editor aliases for blazor and winforms together).

    Hello,

    Thank you for your patience. While there is no built-in way to automatically move a model between platforms, the following tool allows you to copy one model difference to another: Enable the Administrative UI to manage End-User Settings in the Database. Please try it. If this mechanism meets your needs, you can research how it works internally:
    c:\Program Files\DevExpress 24.2\Components\Sources\DevExpress.ExpressApp\DevExpress.ExpressApp\SystemModule\ModelDifferenceViewController.cs.

    I hope this helps you automate the copy process.

    Let me know your results.

    Regards,
    Andrey
