RAD Tool breaking change #8595

dmux created 4 years ago

Hi Guys,

Once again, I really love the RAD tool!

But some time between Feb 9 and Feb 22, something changed, and that broke stuff without me realising straight away, and that stung me. (Look, maybe I reinstalled my VS about then, and got a new version of the RAD tool...?)

It looks like it now has a "ViewType" property on the NavigationProperty. This is a cool feature, being able to have a dropdown... But the tool auto-populates the property with value "null", so when I regenerated some entities I didn't realise it just left out the selectors altogether from the modal. That means using the auto-generated modal now throws an error because the foreign keys are not set. It would be better if it auto-populated it with "LookupTable" for backwards compatibility.

Now that I have figured this out I'm going back through all the entity json files and populating the property.

I hope this is helpful.

Thanks again for the great tool.
