Created Module Upgrades? 

I am pretty excited that I have been able to successfully build my DNN 03.03.07.  I plan to upgrade the entire core sometime, but for now I am happy with Visual Basic.NET 2003.

Anyhow, its a real pain to have to UNINSTALL, rebuild, and then Install my custom modules all the time.  Is there an easier way?  I have noticed that the core team's projects offer upgrades so how I can upgrade my own modules without the hassle of the uninstall, install process?  What am I missing here?

Re: Created Module Upgrades? 

Why do you think you need to uninstall, rebuild, and install your custom modules for a simple Core build? I never needed to, and I can not see any benefits doing that.

Re: Created Module Upgrades? 

Perhaps I am not doing something correct then.  I just was able to write my own SIMPLE Hello World application today that just creates simple little rows in the ModuleSettings table in SQL with INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, SELECT functions.

The install of the core portal is up at MaximumASP's server and I build everything locally here.........create a .ZIP file with my .DNN file.........build support and compiled .DLL file and then use the self module installer which is really easy.

Re: Created Module Upgrades? 

:-)

I am sure you don't. If you wan't to handle ModuleSettings, for example the setting fooBar, you do it this way:

SELECT:

dim x as string = Settings("fooBar")

INSERT,UPDATE

dim mc as new  Entities.Modules.ModuleController()
mc.UpdateModuleSettings(ModuleID, "fooBar", yourValue)

DELETE

dim mc as new Entities.Modules.ModuleController()
mc.DeleteModuleSetting(ModuleID,"fooBar")

Please use the framework!

Re: Created Module Upgrades? 

If you don't run any sql scripts during install, you don't need to uninstall and install again. Just installing is enough
