Again, I am new to the ASP.NET world, and I come from a Windows Forms background. I'm working with an ObjectDataSource that retrieves a collection of business objects. With the collection, I am going to be binding it to a CheckBoxList and other various controls. The business object that I am using is an Employee.
To get all of the employees, I create an ObjectDataSource and set the "Select" method. I then set the DataSourceID of the CheckBoxList to be that of the ObjectDataSource. When I load the page for the first time, I see all of the employees. Now, the user goes through this page and selects all the employees they want to see information about (by checking the box next to the employee name). Finally, the user hits the button called "Display." Upon postback how do I get a list of those employees? I've tried the following solution, but I'm not sure if it's the best practice in obtaining all those employees again. Here's my solution...
In the CheckBoxList, I set the DataTextField to the Employee's name. I also set the CheckBoxList's DataValueField. This property is a little different. I set this to be a UNIQUE IDENTIFIER, which can distinguish this employee from other employees. Now, when the user hits the button "Display" I use my ObjectDataSource again and MANUALLY call ObjectDataSource.Select(). I cast the returned value as a List<Employee>. Finally, I iterate through all list items in the CheckBoxList...
[Code]....
If the item is selected, I parse through my list of employees that was returned from the bjectDataSource.Select(). I use the item.Value and compare it to each employee's "key." If the key is found, I know that the employee is selected. I put this employee in another list called EmployeesSelected.
Finally, I take EmployeesSelected (which is a List) and set my GridView's .DataSource and call .DataBind() on the GridView.
Is this the "best practice" of re-obtaining the Employees that are selected on my page, or am I making this too complicated?
I created a class library: PRTreatmentReviews. I created a reference for the class library on the website. I checked the property pages and the reference to the class is there. I put objectdatasource on a page and tried to pick up the PRTreatmentReviews class but it's not there? The Class
I have a DetailsView (DV) control, an ObjectDataSource (ODS) control, and a button on a page. I have 2 classes in the App_Code directory (Customer and CustomerDAO). The DAO class provides static methods for the ODS control and simply hack values in (ie...no real database selects/updates). The Customer class has 2 properties (Id and Name) and a default constructor. The page takes an ID on the querystring and determines if the DV control is in insert or edit mode. If in edit mode, it sets the SelectParameter on the ODS (id field), calls ODS.Select(), and then calls DV.DataBind(). The existing (although fake) customer is loaded and display properly when this happens. I then change the name of the Customer in the DV and click the Button to save the new data.
Everything seems to be wired up correctly as the UpdateMethod that is specified in the ODS control is called and succeeds (even in my real example with my database). The problem is that the BoundFields in the DV control have not been updated with the new values and therefore the existing values are updated in the database and my changes are lost. I have handled the OnUpdating event of the ODS and the values are still the old values. I have also handled the OnItemUpdating event of the DV control and the NewValues IOrderedDictionary still has the old values in it also. In looking at the MSDN article for the UpdateMethod, it states the following:
Parameter Merging Parameters are added to the UpdateParameters collection from three sources:
From the data-bound control, at run time. From the UpdateParameters element, declaratively. From the Updating event handler, programmatically.
I am using the BoundField classes in my DV control so I would have assumed that the first bullet above would have handled the updating of values, but it doesn't appear to work with the way I am doing it. If I set the values explicitly in the OnUpdating event that is fired by the ODS control (the 3rd bullet) the right values are updated (again...even in my real database situation). It seems like my only issue is that the automatic binding that I expect from the DV control isn't working as I would expect it to. Here is the code that I have in my fake example:
I am trying to call web service from jquery..trying following way but i am not able to pass to complex type parameter to WCF service.My wcf function is as follows
<OperationContract()> <Web.WebGet(UriTemplate:="/GetData?strErrMsg={strErrMsg}&chrErrFlg={chrErrFlg}", ResponseFormat:=WebMessageFormat.Json, BodyStyle:=WebMessageBodyStyle.Wrapped)> _ Function GetData(ByRef strErrMsg As System.Collections.Generic.List(Of String), ByRef chrErrFlg As String) As String strErrMsg is System.Collections.Generic.List(Of String)
I am trying to call as follows
var Type; var Url; var Data; var ContentType; var DataType; var ProcessData; var parameters;
[code]...
And I am able to call other methods in same way having string and integer parameter.I have gone through this but didnt get anything. URL...
How to set Height and ItemSource(Business Object as DataSource for Cell) for every Cell in DataGrid/ Grid? Shown below is part of code I am currently using with Grid Control. What I am currently doing is that I am using ListBoxItem, set Item Height and ItemSource at ListBoxItem Level, Add ListBoxitem to ListBox and then Add ListBox to Grid, It leaves me with just one row and multiple columns in the Grid, which is perhaps not the best way of doing it as it doesn't allow me to take benefits from UI Virtualization of Grid.
[code]....
I am open to use any control i.e. Grid/ DataGrid provided it allows me to set Cell Height and item source at Cell level. In my requirement, Cell height depends on the Item duration and size of image, which means the height of the cells may not be same across cells in any particular row.
i wanted to retrieve things from the data base and perform mathmatical operations on it then post it to the user, so i was told to use the bullited list and bind it to the object dataSource
I have an ASP.NET 4.0 site that I expect to come under extremely high volumes in the next month or so and I am attempting to maximize performance. The site is divided into the front end UI pages, as was as a business and data layer. My thought was to pull the business and data layer out and wrap them in a NamedPipes Connected Windows Service running in Singleton mode.
I created the windows service, got the connection setup correctly and now I am wondering if this is just asking for trouble. Is this a good idea or should I just leave the Business/Data layers in the main solution and let IIS spin those objects up and down for each request? In essence I was thinking that using a WCF Windows Service as an Application Server would be more efficient but that is just a theory
I am working on Vs2005 and asp.net 2.0. I have a solution with 4 projects (business object, components, data access, webclient)When I change any existing method or property in Business object or data access, it is not reflecting in the application. I have deleted the existing references to the project and added them after the new build. I always get errors like "method not found or No overload method "It seems like old verion of dll is still there in the reference.
I'm working on a project in which we have a database, data layer (entity framework), business layer and web/UI layer.I want to use ASP.NET Dynamic Data for the web layer, but don't want it to access the data layer or database, as I want it to be purely running off business logic, and not directly accessing the data.However, it appears that Dynamic Data only allows Linq-to-SQL or entity framework data sources to be used.Has anyone used it with business-layer objects instead?
On Edit Click, the DropDownList in the GridView brings the previously selected value.On Update Click, the error is: "System.FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format."
ddlRegionNavn.DataTextField = "RegionNavn"; ddlRegionNavn.DataValueField = "RegionID"; // from RegionNavn to RegionID
On Edit Click, the DropDownList values in the GridView is not firing and the following error shows.Object reference not set to an instance of an object. How to implement the code when having a value of type Int ?
I would like to enable/disable the field BagNo in my gridview, depending on the value of another field in the gridview called ScriptNo, when I click the edit button I get this message "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".
here is the code
Protected Sub GridView1_RowEditing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewEditEventArgs) Handles GridView1.RowEditing Dim row As GridViewRow = GridView1.Rows(e.NewEditIndex) If DirectCast(row.FindControl("ScriptType"), TextBox).Text = "TTA" Then
When I am executing the below code on Visual Studio 2008, then it is executing properly with out any error. But when i am executing it on Visual Studio 2012, then it showing me following error (System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object) at line 64
Why is it so?
.vb Code is below :
Imports System.Data.SqlClient Imports System.Data Partial Class grid Inherits System.Web.UI.Page Function constr() As String Dim i As New IO.StreamReader(Server.MapPath("constr.config"))
I have a dropdownlist attached to a cell when edit is selected. I am using the following code to populate the drop down list with the value that is on the row.
dlBU.Items.FindByValue((e.Row.FindControl("lblBU") as Label).Text).Selected = true;
This works famously when I have a value in the cell. It fails when the cell has not yet been populated. Is there an if then clause that if the value of e.Row.findcontrol("lblBU") is null no default value?
I am trying to get an idea on the best way to do the following:
[1]I have a list of object type (my_object_type), one of the my_object_type members is called SortOrder, which corresponds to the location within the list.
[2]I bind this List<my_object_type> to a GridView, that looks something like the following when displayed:
[1]|[something]|[something]|MOVE TO [DropDownList 1-6]|[Move Button] [2]|[something]|[something]|MOVE TO [DropDownList 1-6]|[Move Button] [3]|[something]|[something]|MOVE TO [DropDownList 1-6]|[Move Button] [4]|[something]|[something]|MOVE TO [DropDownList 1-6]|[Move Button] [5]|[something]|[something]|MOVE TO [DropDownList 1-6]|[Move Button] [6]|[something]|[something]|MOVE TO [DropDownList 1-6]|[Move Button]
[3]When I select a drop down list item from column 4 of the GridView and then select the MOVE BUTTON, I would like to be able to move an object to a specific NEW location - basically reorder the List<my_object_type> and then BIND the new List Order back to the GridView.... (example: current list item #3 -> select #5 from drop down list -> press Move Button ||| then BIND changes back to the GridView)
Question: any recommendations about the best way of doing this within the gridview, etc...?
I have read your article from aspsnippets.com about custom paging it really work, but there are a problem that if there are more record in database (2000 to 5000) than number of page index will be goes in large number. like 1 to 200, any way which can divide it like 12345678910...2000.
