Greetings! I am trying to learn WEB MVC in general. I already have Entity Framework background, but I am trying to get back into the web. The sample projects that are available, which include Durandal or Angular, are quite overwhelming for a beginner--so I'm leaving those out and opting for a multi page application. I want to interface with everything in APB... Using the SimpleTaskSystem as a guideline, I am trying to make a MULTI PAGE application. I want to add a controller to list all the Tasks in the SimpleTaskSystem.... but i am absolutely LOST. I have no idea how to call the Application Services created. I don't want to learn Durandal or Angular just yet. Is there a small sample project somewhere that uses the multi-page (non SPA, non Angular, Non Durandal) approach that might be able to help me out?
Or can someone simply show me how I can add a view-only page which calls the GetTasks() method of the TaskAppService in the SimpleTaskSystem sample project. I am quick learn and I hope that if I can get a explanation for this that I will be well on my way.
Thank you

Hi,
Welcome to ABP :)
As I understand, you don't want to call application service via AJAX. You want a classic MVC solution. There may be different approaches. One could be:
- Create a controller and action (Say TaskController and Index action).
- Inject TaskAppService in this controller and call GetTasks method (with needed parameters) from Index action to obtain list of tasks. It returns a GetTasksOutput object.
- Create a view that has GetTasksOutput as model. From the Index action, pass this GetTasksOutput to this view.
- In the view, just render GetTasksOutput properties using loops and razor syntax.

Thank you, that may point me in the right direction. The whole injection part is what is really confusing me I guess; I understand it, I'm just not used to it and I think that's what is throwing me off. I will see if I can get anywhere using your advice.
I've tried Googling for a sample project, similar to the ones available, do you happen to know if anything exists like that (even if its not the SimpleTaskSystem sample)?

Hi again,
I strongly recommend to read Dependency Injection documentation: <a class="postlink" href="http://www.aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Documents/Dependency-Injection">http://www.aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/ ... -Injection</a>
Unfortunately, I've not a sample code that I can share here. I will create MPA version of Simple Task System if I can find time for it (<a class="postlink" href="https://github.com/aspnetboilerplate/aspnetboilerplate-samples/issues/3">https://github.com/aspnetboilerplate/as ... s/issues/3</a>).
If you try to create some code, we can fix it.
