Creating a custom module (add,edit,delete,view)

hello friends, I wanted to know your experts thoughts on this. How about IF I create 3 tier architecture projects for a custom module which i need to develop using LINQ. I mean to say is:

[1] CustomModule.Data (This is a class library project which holds the dbml file and other db related classes)

[2] CustomModule.Business (This might hold business related classes and code - but only if required)

[3] Finally CustomModule.Web (The ascx controls- UI)- This is a WAP

and finally writing the build events to copy evrything in main Mojo web portal site. and install the ascx as feature and configure them in a mojo portal page.

How about this method of development? Is it fine to go with this way? anybody find any issue with this way? Please let me know. Any help appreciated.

Re: Creating a custom module (add,edit,delete,view)

Sounds reasonable to me. There are no rules about how you do data access, you don't have to do it the same way I do, you can use Linq, or Entity Framework or NHibernate or whatever you like. Though using those technologies you may need to add/uncomment/update the connectionStrings section in Web.config whereas the included code uses it from appSettings.

Best,

Joe
