Функция сшивания из разных проектов

Question

У нас есть 2 проекта в Visual Studio.

Project 1 имеет 2 особенности.

        Feature A is site scoped module 
        Feature B is web application scoped feature stapler. (empty element with FeatureSiteTemplateAssociation)

.

Project 2 имеет 1 функцию (функция X), которые развертывает список.

Я хочу сконструировать функцию X к функции B. Поэтому я помещаю идентификатор функции функции X в пустой элемент (функцию b) проекта 1 как: <FeatureSiteTemplateAssociation Id="IDofFeatureX" TemplateName="GLOBAL" />

Это хорошая практика?

Answer 1

There is n o restriction as such that both the features should be in same project. It is always good practice to keep a separate project for site columns/content types/List & Libraries.Below are the points to be kept in mind while creating feature stapling:

1. Staplee feature should be having higher scope than stapled feature. eg: if stapled feature is site collection or web scope , then staplee feature should be web app scoped.

2. Since you are trying to activate the feature in every template ie TemplateName="GLOBAL" , it is helpful to understand about the AllowGlobalFeatureAssociations property of templates. If this property is set to FALSE, global association features will not be activated.So for such templates you will have to explicitly add FeatureSiteTemplateAssociation .Shared Services Provider site template and the Blank Site site template use the AllowGlobalFeatureAssociations="FALSE" property.
