I was looking at ASP.NET MVC 4 and it appears that System.Web.SiteMapProvider doesn’t have support for MVC features like controller and action names.
After a quick search I noticed a lot of people are creating their all provider and/or custom solution.
So it made me think: is there a reason the MVC team didn’t work on a MVC Site MAP provider? Is there a more elegant way, or even a best practice to deal with menus and breadcrumbs on a large project?
I appreciate any comments.
Thanks in advance;
No there is nothing built-in for SiteMaps in ASP.NET MVC.
You should look at MvcSiteMapProvider which is an ASP.NET MVC SiteMapProvider implementation for ASP.NET MVC – although I dont think it has been tested with MVC 4.
MvcSiteMapProvider is based on areas, controller and action method names as opposed to fixed URL references.
