    Creating custom datatype in 4.5.x

    Hi All,

    Quick question, I going to create a new data type but want to check that this method is still valid in 4.5

    3 slasses methodby Tim

    I've used this method in 4.0 but want to make sure that this is still valid in 4.5 and if not what I need to look out for.

    Cheers

    Tom

    I'd use the abstractDataEditor instead - much easier:

    Hi Tom,

    Take a look at the uComponents project.  We are developing data-types specifically for Umbraco v4.5+.  We are using the AbstractDataEditor as the base class for the majority of them.

    http://ucomponents.codeplex.com/SourceControl/list/changesets

    The project isn't released yet - so take a look at the source-code for now.  Should give you some nice pointers.

    Aside from that, as Niels says - check out Tim's blog post about the AbstractDataEditor.

    Cheers, Lee.
