How to separate logic of a module into multiple projects in XAF

To separate logic of a XAF module. I decided to break it into some projects projects:

Accounting
---Accounting.Module
---Accounting.BusinessModels
---Accounting.Data

Inventory
---Inventory.Module
---Inventory.BusinessModels  ( Contains POCO)
---Inventory.Data            ( Contains DbContext)

But unfortunately I cant find the business models of Accounting.BusinessModles in the Model Editor of Accounting.Module. I've already added required references to the Accounting.Module project.

Is it true that XAF just discovers the models inside the BusinesObjects folder of Accounting.Module project?

Solution

  • Your projects should be a XAF module which means that they should contain a class that derives XAF ModuleBase. Then XAF is able to recognize your objects wherever you put them.
