How do I make ObjectDataSource work with singleton Business object? My singleton business object is defined in Global:
[Code]....
I get an error:The type specified in the TypeName property of ObjectDataSource 'objThreads' could not be found.
I am using Visual Studio 2010 for the first time. I program in MS Access for a long time at decide to move to the ASP world. My problem is that I design my first web .aspx default page with a simple data grid. I decided to connect the data via the business object data adapter. I use the Dataset designer to great the dataset. All looks well and works fine on my PC. But when moved to the server I get the Terror "The type specified in the TypeName property of ObjectDataSource not found".
From my reading for the past two days, it seems that something need to be define (a class of some sort) to let ASP know where to find the data adapter. If this is the case, then why did not Visual Studio 2010 did not automatically build the class in the appropriate BIN/ APP_CODE or Global directory and more importantly, why would it work fine on the PC , but not on the server. I am totally blind-sided by Visual Studio 2010 allowing me to design and test on PC but throws me a curl ball with moving to a server. Am I assuming to much from Visual Studio 2010???
What is the solution.. What I am looking for is to know where exactly where and how to write this class. I am so new to ASP, all of my reading just confusing me more and more by reading so many post on this error. I know it is probably a simple class to write somewhere, but why did not Visual Studio 2010 write it accordingly.
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 have a dropdownlist that I'm binding to an objectdatasource within a edit template of a gridview. Everything works fine on our staging server, but when I view on our production server I get the following error:
"The type specified in the TypeName property of the ObjectDataSource 'ObjectDataSource2' could not be found."
The typename is correct. It works on our staging server. What would cause this to not work on our production server? Any way to re-write the code to get this to work? See the code below.

I've created my dataset in my App_Code folder. I tested it so it works, But then when I add in my page an ObjectDataSource, it can find any object the list is empty. I looked for online some solution but I didn't find something which worked. It works when I add the code manually, but i would like to understand how come, which part I misunderstood.

I want to call my business object class in which I have written my logic when any database status field change, what is the best way we can do, I want notification facility also.
I can do this window service. But there is any best way to acheive this like Notification and call my business object.
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

Is it possible to pass a domain object as session parameter in an ObjectDataSource. I'm doing this:
<asp:ObjectDataSource ID="ParticipantsDataSource" runat="server" OnInit="SqlDataSource_Load"
SelectMethod="LoadParticipants" TypeName="SB.Web.units.Players">
<SelectParameters>
<asp:SessionParameter Name="user" SessionField="User" Type="SB.BusinessLogic.DomainEntity.User" />
</SelectParameters>
</asp:ObjectDataSource>
But I get the error message that I can't create an object of the type System.TypeCode from the string containing SB.BusinessLogic.DomainEntity.User for the property Type.
I would like the ObjectDatasource insert and update data methods to return the inserted or updated object like LinqDataSource do.
View 2 Replieshow to pass an object to the selectmethod of the objectdatasource control?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to use an ObjectDataSource's SelectMethod() to retrieve a result set from a sql server database to populate a data table with various stored procs that have any given number of parameters. My approach is to pass an object which contains the stored proc name and information about its parameters into the SelectMethod(). My issue is that I don't know how to actually set the default value. Here is the code I have so far:
ObjectDataSource1.DataObjectTypeName = "WebApplication1.Children";
ObjectDataSource1.TypeName = "WebApplication1.Children";
ObjectDataSource1.SelectMethod = "Select";
Parameter odsParameter = new Parameter() { Name = "storedProc", Type = TypeCode.Object };
// How do you set the default value to reference an object?
ObjectDataSource1.SelectParameters.Add(odsParameter);
namespace WebApplication1
{
public class Children
{
public DataTable Select(object storedProc)
{
// do stuff here and get db values.
}
}
}
The default value of a Parameter object is a string type. Does anyone know how to set the default value with an object or how I can pass an object into the SelectMethod?
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.
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 have a whole bunch of data access methods where in each one I am doing this

and them moving on with my SqlCommand and SqlDataReader and so on.Is this creating to many instances of an SQLConnection?I was thinking doing this instead. Creating a SqlConnection Manager which would look like this

and then in my database access methods

Is this a good or bad idea and why?Also would this even be neccesary?
I have a lot of Singleton implementation in asp.net application and want to move my application to IIS Web Garden environment for some performance reasons.
CMIIW, moving to IIS Web Garden with n worker process, there will be one singleton object created in each worker process, which make it not a single object anymore because n > 1.
can I make all those singleton objects, singleton again in IIS Web Garden?
I am creating a singleton object in the first request to the web service and keeping it in the memory. This works fine for first few seconds. If I make a request 5 minutes later, I can see that the singleton object is created again? is my singleton object getting disposed after x no of minutes? how can i make increase the life-time of my object forever ?

using an ObjectDataSource and a FormView.In the FormView I have a set of controls. When the FormView is in edition, I have in particular a ComboBox and a TextBox which are related as follows: when the ComboBox takes some special values, the TextBox must be read only or not. or the moment I get that behaviour as follows: the ComboBox triggers a postback when its selected item is changed and in the 'OnPreRender' of my page I get the value of the ComboBox and update the Readonly property of the TextBox accordingly.What I don't like with this method is that I don't use my object model which is consumed by the ObjectDataSource. The problem is simply that when the FormView is in edition there does not seem to be a way to get the instance of the object which is being edited. The 'DataItem' is null and I haven't found any way to automatically build a new object from the values in the controls to pass it to my business layer. Of course I could do the whole job myself by getting explicitly all the values in the controls, but that's not nice.
View 1 Replieswhich one is better in "Session Facade Class" and "Singleton Object" design patterns in ASP.Net? Also, please state the scenarions where specific design pattern is advisable to use.
View 1 RepliesIf I run below ASP.NET code, it gives me same output in different post-backs. First Time
Name is = Smith
also After Post-back (Button Click)
Name is = Smith
I feel though I have defined singleton, it should return a new object every time in different ASP.NET post-backs. because once the function "PAGE_LOAD" is completed then there are no reference variables holding singleton object. So there is a change of unloading the singleton class from memory by CLR. that means there is a chance of losing private static reference variable and also single ton object stored. In ASP.NET stateless environment, why is it keeping earlier object in multiple post backs and btw, without having any reference variable to that object. Is this is known danger with singleton in ASP.NET environment?

I have a series of classes that loosely fit the following pattern:
public class CustomerInfo {
public int Id {get; set;}
public string Name {get; set;}
public class CustomerTable {
public bool Insert(CustomerInfo info) { /*...*/ }

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 have two business objects mapped via LINQ to tables. One of the objects contains an instance of the other object and share a key as an identifier.I want to retrieve Class A and within class A all of Class B's values as well. What I am doing is this:

This seems a little clunky, as in slow. Is there a better way to get the Class B (User) information without making a query every time?
