ASP.Net MVC Magic Strings - Can You Always Avoid Them?

Question

Ok, take this example below,

public ActionResult ViewProfile()
        {
            //Load the profile for the currently logged in user
            if (Membership.GetUser() != null)
            {
               //Do some stuff get some data.

                return View(ReturnViewModel);
            }

            return RedirectToAction("MainLogon","Logon");
        }

In any case, to avoid the "magic lines" when redirecting to the login page?

Answer 1

In this case, I will not approach MVC Futures.

I would recommend using T4MVC

David Ebbo talks about it here: http://blogs.msdn.com/davidebb/archive/2009/06/17/a-new-and-improved-asp-net-mvc-t4-template.aspx

With the updated version, it also includes refactoring support for action methods:

, :

<% Html.RenderPartial("DinnerForm"); %>

intellisense :

<% Html.RenderPartial(MVC.Dinners.Views.DinnerForm); %>
