I have inherited a really terrible web form application that is all kinds of bad - the elusive hairy mess of Page_Load datasets and events. Object Oriented? N-level? Unit tests? source control? All the academic subtleties for the team that built this mess.
This is the beginning of life as a classic asp application that has mostly ported to VB.NET. The management rejected my request to "destroy the entire site from orbit" and start all over again.
[Paste the discourse on how ASP.NET MVC is absolutely, positively the only normal way for .net sites anymore]
I know that we could interact between legacy web forms and mvc. The question is, can we leave the legacy code in VB and build new material in C #? I want to force the conversion to C # so that the team does not return to bad habits.
Is there an Arec MVC 2 strategy we could use here?
