If I have a Web application that has approximately 50 pages, and 10 of them I want associated with an AgilePoint process. I have developed the data model of the whole application using an entity framework, now I want to add these 10 pages "generated" by AgilePoint, is it possible to use the AgilePoint Web Controls but on top of my EF data model?
Binding data controls to an existing data model is implemented using the regular ASP.NET methodology (like providing the DataProviderID, and selecting the DataTextField to bind data from an entity's property). AgilePoint Web Controls provide the mechanism to bind and persist “Process” related data to the AgilePoint Database. Hence any database (entity-relationship) implementation which is not AgilePoint related can be done the usual way (but AgilePoint provides a Data Population feature to persist data directly into a custom database table without the need to implement a Data Access layer). Also a point to note here is that AgilePoint Web Controls have been inherited from the base ASP.NET Web Controls and function the same way as any other ASP.NET Web Control.
