    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.

    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 {
    ....
}
