CSLA .NET reference?

RockfordLhotka posted on Monday, July 27, 2009

Every now and then I get an email from someone who is considering using CSLA .NET. They often would like to know if anyone else has used it to create an app like theirs.

That might mean high-scale web, super-complex Windows Forms, as a service-consumer, as a service-creator, etc.

I maintain a page with some limited information: http://www.lhotka.net/cslanet/Usage.aspx

But the reality is that most companies (for various reasons) won't allow their name to be used.

I understand that, but I'm wondering if there's a workaround of sorts. I'm wondering if some of you on the forum, as individuals rather than companies, would be willing to act as a reference? Be willing to occassionally accept an email or phone call from someone considering using CSLA .NET to discuss (in broad terms) your experiences. Without revealing your organization of course.

Thoughts?

I should point out that this is spurred by an immediate need for someone with very complex Windows Forms (tons of controls per form, etc).

We use it for a fairly complex web application, but I would be willing to act as a reference.

Once you "get" CSLA, you just can't think of using another framework.

Hi Rocky,

You can add me to your reference list. I've been using CSLA for since versjon 2.1 on primarily WinForms applications, some web services (WCF) and a small webapplication.
