Custom Server Controls :: CreateChildControls Is Not Called?
Oct 12, 2010
I create a webcontrol (DefectsList as a gridview) with an icon that call an httphandler to open an other webcontrol (DefectEditor as an editor) but the CreateChildControls of the editor is not called!!
see the details below of DefectsList:
[Code]....
and the javascript:
[Code]....
see the details below of DefectEditor:
[Code]....
Why the CreateChildControls is not called, I think is due to the HttpHandler? so how to do?

I want to unit test my rendering engine for an ASP.NET app. I have some custom controls created in that app. Most of those control rely on having CreateChildControls() method called by the ASP.Net engine wheather during initial call or a postback.When running a test CreateChildControls() does not get called and the control is in an "invalid" state.
As a workaround to get the tests going I explicitly call some other public method that calls EnsureChildControls() in it. This in effect causes CreateChildControls() to be executed and the control being initialized properly (just as it would normally when hosted on web server). I would like to get rid of that extra method call and the control to still be in a proper state for testing.

I'm having the same issue as posted here:
http://forums.asp.net/p/1157529/1904541.aspx#1904541
I have a web user control that implements iWebEditable, and a custom editor part the implements EditorPart. In my custom editor part class, i define a text box, create the textbox in createchildcontrols() then render the textbox in RenderContents() using the following line:
_txtTitle.RenderControl(writer);
As soon as I add the line above (which displays the text box in the editor part) the functions createchildcontrols and applychanges are called in the wrong order. i click save button in the editor part to save changes to textbox, createchildcontrols() is called first, then applychanges() is called after the editorpart and the webpart (custom control) are rendered requiring me to refresh the page (which is not the desired functionality ;-] ). As soon as I comment out the line above in RenderContents() the functions are called in the correct order: appychanges() first, then createchildcontrols().

I'm making a custom modal popup using a bunch divs where the programmer can set how many buttons thay want to apprear on said popup programatically using a function. It works. The only problem is that when the programmer specifies the number of buttons he/she wants it wipes out the skin information for the whole control. If I comment out the call to CreateChildControls the skin works fine, but the new buttons are not created.
In my CreateChildControls function the first thing it does is call Controls.Clear(). I assume this is what's wiping out the skin information, but it's kind of necessary to prevent controls with duplicate IDs.

I have a weird design. I have page called A, it has control called C1 which has a control called C1-1 which has a control called C-1-1-1. C-1-1-1 is inside a modal popup extender. Whenever their is a postback, the C-1-1-1 's Pre_Render is called twice, first with the correct values and parameters which seem right. And second with all values seemingly reset (sounds like a new object construction).

Let me explain, describing the scenario:In a custom server control (in my case, derived from CompositeControl), in the overidden CreateChildControls method I create a complex tree of subcontrols, using information from a db.The db provides both information on which controls I need to create (the user interface's structure) and the data used to fill these controls.Than the user can interact with the control and change the data (that becomes different to what stored on db).
My custom control lives in the same page where there are other controls, obviously.And these controls can cause a postback at any time.What I need is that my custom control keeps the data entered by the user across these postback, without reverting to the original data and loose the user data entry.
Here is the first doubt:
1)I create the subcontrols dinamically in the CreateChildControls at any page refresh (both on first call than on postback).I know that the framework solves the reference between the posted data and the controls I create in the CreateChildControls in order to set properties and raise control events, but can you tell me when and how it actually does this? In which phase of page life cycle? What happens after the CreateChildControls?
A second doubt:2)If the user interface structure must change as a consequence of the data entered, I had to execute CreateChildControls twice (the first time to recreate the original interface to get the events and the second time to create the new interface)
In which phase of page/control lifecycle do I have to make the second call to CreateChildControls? I do it on Prerender now, but is it right or wrong, and why?

there is a sample code for creating a custom textbox control with built in validation posted here Building ASP.NET TextBox with Integrated Validation And Switchable Input Modes. Inside the code there is a call to Controls.Add(validator) which adds the asp.net validator control to the textbox. when the textbox is used on the page, the validator is rendered to the page although the validator is added to the textbox and not to the page!

I have a custom server control inheriting from CompositeControl. It consists of two RadioButtonlist controls that are rendered side by side in an html table. The number of ListItems in each RadioButtonList is not known until runtime. Depending on how many items each list contains, the RepeatColumns property of each list is set differently. To do this in the handler for the ItemDataBound event I need to get the count of ListItems in each RadioButtonList. How do I expose the Items.Count property of each internal RadioButtonList as a top-level property? I tried using a getter to return the count but this generates a compile-time error to the effect that the count cannot be assigned to--even though I have not created a setter.
Similarly, in the handler for the Submit event, I need to get the ClientID of each internal RadioButtonList to pass to a method that checks for data changes. How do I expose the ClientID of each component RadioButtonList as a top-level property?
I can of course index the Controls collection of the composite control to access the child control and read its properties--but that defeats the whole point of making a complex, independent custom server control.

I am trying to build a custom composite control, which allows me to add custom content to each child control. It's a similar concept to what you have with a GridView and TemplateColumn. The markup used to place the control on the page would end up being something like this:
[Code]....
I have the code below, which allows me to put that markup on the page without throwing any errors, and it renders all the correct HTML, except it doesn't render the contents of the ColumnTemplate. I have replaced the Render() code with a comment because it's quite long winded and doesn't add anything important here:
[Code]....
I have tried to follow examples on MSDN and other forums but I can't make this work. I think I'm missing the code to render the contents of the template, but I don't know how to hook that up.

How would I add a (dropdown) list of available values for a custom server control property?
(Just like 'Visible' property of most controls has valid values of 'True/False' and nothing else can be entered or selected)

I am creating a custom server control, and I am wanting to include a JavaScript file in the dll file when the control is built. I have tried suggestions from the following websites:[URL] But after following the directions, If I use firebug to see what errors show up, the JavaScript functions that are being called all say "goNext is not defined" which leads me to believe the JavaScript file is not being added correctly.
Some information on what my control looks like
I have the JavaScript File in a folder called Script. The namespace of the project is CustomControl, and the Name of the project is MaskedDateTextbox.
In my AssemblyInfo I have the following:
<Assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.*")>

From the above link i see that this is doable with Ajax Server Control, but i don't have it, i have Custom Server Control. Can i do this with Custom Server Control and how?

I've build a custom server control inheriting from WebControl. Basically it is a kind of button. All is working perfectly except one thing: the PostBackUrl is inoperative.
I probably forgot to implement something. Actually I just added the property PostBackUrl. Probably I should also implement an interface of call something.

I have a problem with custom authentication over https. What I need is a secure channel and authenitcation on message level. I got it working quite well, but my custom validator never gets called when I send a message to the web service using SoapUI. The service is called, however the Validate method in the custom validator is never called. The validator is available for the runtime, I have checked by misspelling the type in customUserNamePasswordValidatorType which caused an exception saying it could not find type when I accessed the WSDL.
Here's my config:

I have a control inherited from datalist because I want all the same functionality but with a couple of extra properties.
I have a method that goes off and gets the data inside the control (instead of using a separate datasource ID). It's reading it from XML into a datatable.
If on the code behind of the aspx page I put the control on I put a thecontrol.databind() in the page load, all works well.
However I'd rather not have to do this, instead the control should bind itself.
I gather it's something to do with the order of events but I'm not sure what to do about it.
I don't want to reinvent the datalist wheel, just add a couple of properties and get it's own data
Sample code (some code removed for clarity)
