Combining features from other projects in an ASP.NET MVC application

I am writing an ASP.NET MVC application that combines a set of features from existing applications. The new application is suppose to use UI features and logic created (especially for this purpose) in the existing applications.

For that reason I wanted to create in the existing applications some kind of a "blackbox" that I will be able to drop in my new a开发者_运维知识库pplication along with a matching connection string, and it will work independently, binding data on it's own.

I thought about using partial views, but I am having trouble with passing the model data to it, since the controller of the new application should not know about the model of the existing applications.

I can not use ASP.NET WebForms, since my application should be a "postback-less" application, and ASP.NET AJAX toolkit or frameworks alike are out of the question.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Katie
