    New PropertyEditor: DotNet Class Picker

    I suggest to add a new PropertyEditor that allow web-editor to select a .NET Class that implement a specified interface, like as DotNet datatype already do with IDotNetDataSource.

    When user define a new DotNet Class Picker DataType, he can select a interface inside some Assembly.

    Then, when web-editor edit a document with this datatype, he can select one (or more?) Class that implement selected interface.

    Hi Flavio,

    Thanks for the suggestion, can you give an example of how this could be used ?

    For example, I am developing a webProject that will download data from external resources, in JSON, XML, RSS formats.

    I will use a Content Node to configure any source of theese. The Node will have:

    • Resource URL: location of resource
    • Parser: Parser class that will download, normalize, then save data to local DB.

    A Parser class is a C# class that implement ISourceParser C# interface.

    Addon

    For non-technical users, list of class would be converted to a "user-like" name, using an apporpiate Attribute:

    [nuPickers.DotNetClassPicker.ClassName("XML Format")]
    public class MyXmlParser : ISourceParser {
        ....
    }
