Feature Requests

Add DataContract Namespace to generated DTO types

In order to completely control the serialization, allow the user to specify the DataContract namespace for generated types.

Reference out-of-namespace known types without qualification

The DSL should know all declared types allowed, and be able to reference them without writing the fully qualified type name.

Declare Bounded Contexts

Commands and Domain Events should then have DataContract namespaces corresponding to the bounded context's name.

Support for C# keyword Identifiers

Support for Identifiers like @event and other reserved C# keywords.

Emit DebuggerDisplay for types with more than one field

Currently, this is emitted only for single-field types.

Configurable DebuggerDisplay on types

Allow a way to configure the DebuggerDisplay on the generated types, e.g. declaring a way to generate [DebuggerDisplay("{FirstName} {LastName}")] on a value type, (defvaluetype StudentName (string FirstName, string LastName)).

Validate model before generation

Validate allowed types in DTO types (Commands, Events, DTOs).

Commands and Domain events should only be able to have properties that are primitive types, arrays of these or other Data Transfer Objects.

Emit friendly error when code is not generatable

E.g. for multi-dimensional arrays in Equality.

Multi-dimensional array equality

Currently one single-dimensional arrays are supported when generating equality members. Implement these, too:

	(namespace TestCases.TypeDeclarations
		(defcommand PrintArraySimple2D (int[,] Value))
		(defcommand PrintArraySimpleMulti (int[][,] Value))

ToString Generation on Value Types for Array properties

Currently, the ToString does not expand and print the values of arrays in the generated ToString method. Add this (see GeneratedValueTypeWithArrayTest for ToString).
