    Need class reference MSDN style

    where can I find a API class reference, with all the classes and all the members (props, methods, events) of all the classes?

    ps. the dynamic type is pain in the butt.. why not use strong types?

    Hi Andrew

    I think that you should be able to use the object browser in Visual Studio? Don't think there is MSDN like documentation for the classes anymore. There was for some older versions a long time ago but I don't suppose that will be helpful.

    But hope that the object browser might help?

    Umbraco supports both dynamic and strongly typed models so you can use strongly typed if you would like.

    You can find more information using the documentation here https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/ and you can learn more about the API's here https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Management-v6/ - Nevermind it says v6 - It's the same for v7. A bit confusing...yes indeed.

    Hope this helps a bit.

    /Jan

    Thanks.
    The existing documentation helps.. ofcourse. but it doesnt cover everything. Just randomly bits and pieces. 
    It is good practice (Google, Microsoft etc) to have all the classes and all the members documented.
    There are frameworks for that.. just include some XML description above the definition of the member within the source code.

    If it doesnt, then thats a lack. no?

    e.g. this blog item .. 

    https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/reference/templating/macros/razor/using-dictionary-items

    i want to know - in which namespace is this @Dictionary class located? 

    at least it could have the date when the blog item was posted
