Hi Friends,

I have a scenario where i need to subscribe to the table events, form data source events and form control events eg: Button Clicked event. Could you please help me in knowing what is the best practice from the extension class creation point of view. My doubt is do i need to copy all the events w.r.t table,form data source and form control in one extension class only or i need to create a new extension class for the each scenario accordingly.

Regards

Venky

RE: Extension classes

This is solely depends on your companies dev-standards and naming conventions.

I would suggest(and it seems that it is a common case) to create a new class for each scenario.

MS uses EventHandler prefix to name their classes, like: smmActivityAdvancedPromptEventHandler. But that is not the optimal solution in some cases.

Let's say we have SalesTable table and form, and we need handler for both events on table, datasource on the form and UI

I would suggest to have something like:

SalesTable_Table_EventHandler

SalesTable_Table_Extension(if needed)

SalesTable_Form_EventHandler

SalesTable_Form_Extension(if needed)

In this case it is easy to differentiate between code.
