a little bit different... 1. the model is formed from classes that assembles your domain and your business logic. Let say that there you will find classes like person, account, or something similar. But the model does not power lifting, it simply offer services. 2. The controller takes al user information/events from the view and uses the services ofered by the model to make necesary changes. 3. View pass to the controller al user information/events and then query the model about its state changes to reflect them on the view. Simply: the user does something, the view announce the controller that the user has done something. The controler, makes necesary calls to the model to cary out the needed actions. The view sees if there are model changes and display them. ----- Original Message ----- From: Homme, James To: programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, September 07, 2010 9:59 PM Subject: MVC Hi, Is this how Model View Controller works? 1. You have something on the back end, the model, that does all the heavy lifting. 2. On top of that, you have the controller, which sits between the user and the model that calls the methods of the model. 3. The view simply passes information from the user to the controller which the controller interprets for the model. Thanks. Jim Jim Homme, Usability Services, Phone: 412-544-1810.
