Pre-purchase question -- dynamic digital goods

[medusa11365]

A major customization that I'll need is to be able to hook into a successful order completion and dynamically create the digital good purchased. The goods will be various-sized jpg's, created on-the-fly. Will I be able to customize the cart without purchasing the source in order to achieve this? I'm a developer, so it's not a question of HOW to do this, just if it's possible. I need to determine the total cost of the software to get my store up, and purchasing the source would add to it considerably..

Thanks

Yeah I think its possible without source code. For example one way to accomplish this could be to put dynamic digital good creation in CheckedOut event handler in Website/ConLib/OnePageCheckout.ascx.cs file. This event handler is called just after checkout completion. In there you check if this checkout was a success by doing something like

Code: Select all

if (response.Success)
{
......................
......................
Order order = OrderDataSource.Load(e.OrderId);
//DO YOU CUSTOM DIGITAL GOOD CREATION HERE USING ORDER INFORMATION

}

Thank you for your fast reply. It's very nice to find a forum that is apparently well-maintained.
