- #3307
- relative paths are now supported in `View()` calls from components and view components,
`Html.PartialAsync()` and similar calls, and `RazorPage.Layout` settings.
- support absolute paths, relative paths, and view location lookups consistently / everywhere
- support view paths in `TemplateRenderer` e.g. passing an absolute path to `Html.EditorFor()`
- take a big swing at the `IRazorViewEngine` and `IViewEngine` interfaces
- split lookups (view names) from navigation (view paths)
- remove `Partial` separation; use parameters to set `IsPartial` properties
- correct `ViewContext` copy constructor and add unit test
- extend unit tests to cover relative paths
- fix existing tests to handle newly-required extension in an absolute path
- add functional test that chains relative paths
nits:
- remove some YOLO line wrapping
- `""` -> `string.Empty`
Project/Assembly names are all like 'FeatureWebSite' root namespaces
updated accordingly. This makes processing all of the functional tests and
deploying the web sites much simpler.
