Back from holiday -- will consume response in the next days. But it's clear from a quick-skim I think this post will help many who were poking around the edges of configurations. I thank you for your detailed response! Very enlightening.
Perhaps this thread can turn in to a (?) help note in Studio to guide users to the tech debt after selecting cms kit in the various combinations.
Thanks again for now. Most excellent response.
Followup: Based on the instructions above about properly configuring Blazor Admin solving for why only Poll shows up seems clear and I can test. But it seems there is one other combination I did not document clearly that the public and myself should about. What about CMSKit + Blazor app itself (not enabling/installing the public site in Studio). I would guess/think the secondary topic of needing to roll-your-own support for Blazor would then be true as well and the fact CMSkit is public or not with Blazor is irrelevant. Would that be a fair assessment? or if not, would there be other configurations for that case that should be noted?
Hurm. I finished the work i was doing and was able to move the entire folder of slns out of the folder they were in and to the deskop.
in opening the app, Recents panel cleared out --- but i still cant utilize the Open dialogs. Odd. Not the expected result admittedly.
Yeah.. gonna need a try/catch inside that folder-file parsing loop, then . Because I certainly changed the pathnames and filenames of a SLN due to the fact it was IMMENSELY large -- and which of those 20 test slns they are i don't know. . but i could move them all out of the way if thats a test. But remember: you can't control your end-users; be pessimistic. ;-)
Do you need to see my system with this information tho? I think we found the common cause. You've described the dependence on structure and internals pre-opening. I've described i've mucked with a structure/sln for brevity. Yet, that shouldn't stop an end user from ever opening any other solution ever again.
I'm going on holiday an back the 18. If we really need my system to inspect I'm 100% here to help!
Best.
note: for MVC admin solutions the CMSKit seems far more robust, so trying to find what is supported if blazor is used. Template choces are offered.. etc. But perhaps it's the installation that is wrong due to partial blazor support -- or simply it not supported in full ( such as perhaps Widget)
Okay but that would be doing so in over 7 or 8 solutions as i've been trying to test differences in CRMkit on Blazor (? see other ticket) so i have other solutions.
So if you're saying an offending solution is in Studio's way -- then there is something offensive in Studio's file-open code; that is far-too-dependent on what the user may-or-may-not of done with file and folder organization.
DynamicWidgetProvider? nothing of that in the docs listed.
oh yeah.. no problem. it's kinda an odd one. i'll schedule the meeting.
I will note I did try clearing the appsettings.json to see if that helped.. but it didn't . was considering a reinstall but simply didn't get that far yet before reporting it.
I can open the solutions if they are in the "recent panel".. its if i go to the naked "open solution" button next to 'new solution' button. Either on the welcome screen or from the toolbar.
i just realized i could get to one project via recent.. but not as described.
i've snooped around the Studio json files ( i have it saved in my finder from all my troubles before costing me months of delays ) so i was able to find it.. but i can't quite figure out what to remove/clear this time.
i did do some path renaming recently.
or maybe something in Suite is bugging it. hard to say.
I've restarted the computer and Studio many times. Studio is updated.
By the way, I opened an issue to add Blazor Web App to the deployment document. See: https://github.com/abpframework/abp/issues/22654
Can/will this cover CLI and YAML .. or do we need a ticket for each topic/issue?
Each caused a misdirection and should be followed-through especially with self-similar vocabulary.
