Yesterday
Hammett announced that part of the project that
Castle Stronghold has developed for Timok is now available
on
using.castleproject wiki. I'm really happy to be able to
somehow contribute to Castle and hope that opening up
this code will help more people getting the Zen of Monorail
and the rest of Castle projects...
I would like to point to one thing that I really like about this
code: it uses service layer. Current support for binding
ActiveRecord objects to Views is nice and sweet, specially
for demos/screencasts - but I'm not sure I would ever
use it in real life project.
There are some instances when adding additional layer may
be overkill, but I believe it is best practice most of the times.
I really wish Castle gets more support for Service Layer in
next version...
Enjoy it.
