Declaration
Property Value
Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|
Boolean | true | false, if an XAF WinForms application uses new templates; otherwise, true |
Remarks
The Solution Wizard enables new templates for all XAF WinForms applications created in v14.2 or later. Your application uses new templates if you can find the following line in your solution:
If you cannot find this line, your application uses old templates. You can add the following code to the Program.cs(vb) file to activate new templates in your application:
public class Program {
public static void Main(string[] arguments) {
// ...
MyApplication winApplication = new MyApplication();
winApplication.UseOldTemplates = false;
// ...
}
}
We recommend using new templates when possible. We no longer fix bugs and develop new features for old templates.
