Forms Data Controls :: Binding Formview To Strongly Typed DataTable In Session Object?

Sep 29, 2010

Okay, here's something that I could easily do the hard way and manually wire up each form element and save it to a datatable in memory, but there has to be a more efficient way to do it.

Here's what I have:

1. A strongly typed datatable and tableadapter in a XSD name Orders

2. A formview control which currently is connected to an ODS connected to the Orders tableadapter, this makes it easy to wire up the databindings for each form field in design view

I would like to:

- bind the the formview to an instance of the strongly typed datatable, and then save the dt to a session object without interacting with the actual database

- load forms on subsequent pages from the dt in session

- ultimately save the dt info to an actual database table on the third page

I've read some solutions where a custom class is created, but to me this seems like almost as much work as wiring up the form field to the table columns manually in code.

Strongly-typed Or Weakly-typed Binding In Codebehind In Front End?

Feb 23, 2010

So my question is more in relation to what people consider to be the best practice and why:

I've been dropping literals into pages and repeaters and binding them in code behind for a while. Is this considered bad practice?

ie:

ASPX Page:

<asp: Literal id="litTextToInsert" runat="Server" />

Code Behind:

litTextToInsert.Text = objData.MyText;

OR (repeater):

[code]....

I personally dont like doing this as i find it makes it harder for me to know if someone changed the field name, or mis typed it during development - the other way you won't know until the page loads.

With the strongly typed version if something changes in your DAL etc the build will break - letting me know I've messed up.

Why do so many people appear to use weakly typed code in ASP.Net (in examples, MVC, etc)?
Am i missing something?

MVC :: Strongly Typed Views: Only One Object Allowed?

May 11, 2010

Just a quick question really but with the strongly typed views where MVC can autobind form fields to the propertys of an object I define, how does this work when supporting multiple forms on the same view?Is it possible to have two objects with different properties,

Object1 { Name, Age }
Object2 { StartDate, EndDate }

Then on the view have two seperate forms, one for each object and the controller can work out which object it is to post back because of the form which eventually gets posted back?

ADO.NET :: Return A Single Row From A Database As A Strongly Typed Object?

Nov 10, 2010

I have a products table whereby I want to return a single row via a product id and use it as a data object.

I have used a .xsd dataset and a product class where I return a dataset and add the values into the product object that I created but I don't like having to write code like

"Product[0].ProductDescription" to get the product description. Is there a way of returning is straight as an object rather than a dataset?

MVC Strongly Typed Versus Dynamically Typed Views

Nov 25, 2010

Given the benefits of using strongly typed views to eliminate typed errors and the use of lambda expressions why would one use a dynamically typed view? When I use them I don't feel as safe as with strongly typed views. Am I missing something? Is there a special use for them?

Web Forms :: Dropdownlist DataBind Using Strongly Typed Property For DataTextField?

Aug 13, 2010

I would rather not magic string my DataTextField/Values on the dropdownlist after setting up the source as a List collection of objects.

I was thinking I could use the DataSource properties but it doesn't seem to like the couple of ways I tried.

WORKS BUT NOT IDEAL
//set the datasource to the returned List<Cart>
this.cartDdl.DataSource = CartManager.Load(WebProfile.Current.UserName);
//set the DataValueField to the Cart.ID property
this.cartDdl.DataValueField = "ID";//would rather use the obj property Cart.ID
//set the DataTextField to the Cart.Description property
this.cartDdl.DataTextField = "Description";//would rather use the obj property Cart.Description
//Bind the ddl to the datasource
this.cartDdl.DataBind();
HOW I WOULD THINK IT COULD WORK this.cartDdl.DataValueField = ((Cart)this.cartDdl.DataSourceObject).ID; this.cartDdl.DataTextField = ((Cart)this.cartDdl.DataSourceObject).Description;

Forms Data Controls :: Binding CheckBoxList In FormView?

Jul 22, 2010

I have a FormView which will bind values from the database using a ID parameter from queryString. In my database, I have a field named CategoryList which can store multiple CategoryID (From Category table) in CSV format (eg: "1,3,4,5"). I'm using SQLDataSource as my datasource.

So, I want to show the selected category in CheckBoxList. Meaning that, the checkbox will be checked (on page load) if its ID is in the CategoryList. Also, I want to allow the user to check/uncheck the CheckBoxList and updates to the database in CSV format. How can i do that?

Forms Data Controls :: Binding Datatable To Listview

I have a function that constructs a datatable from a file that the client uploads. And I want to bind that datatable to a listview but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong... Say, the datatable is like:

FirstName LastName
John Smith

Here's how my aspx looks like:

[Code]....

In my names.aspx.cs file, I do: lvNames.Datasource = dt; //dt is a datatable
lvNames.DataBind();

When I run my aspx page, the listview is empty, is there something obvious I'm doing wrong?

Forms Data Controls :: Conditional Binding Of Selected Value In Formview DDL?

May 4, 2010

I have a sql-bound formview with three DDL's bound to individual SQL datasources. In edit mode, I want to set the selected value to the formview's value, and this works:

<asp:DropDownList
ID="ddl2"
runat="server"
DataSourceID="ddl2lDS"
DataValueField="Name"
SelectedValue='<%# Eval("Name") %>'
/>

But it only works when there's a match between what's in the formview's DS and the DDL's DS.

Unfortunately, there may be instances where the the formview's DS may return a null value or a value different from the DDL's datasource...and when that happens I receive a compilation error like:

'ddl2' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items.
Parameter name: value

What do I need to do to trap that condition before attempting to set the selected value? Do I need to set the selected value of the DDL in formview's dataBinding or dataBound event, by looping through the DDL and checking for a match first?

Forms Data Controls :: Binding DataTable To Chart Control?

Nov 19, 2010

I have a DevExpress WebChart Control that binds to a DataTable. The chart control renders fine from the DataTable until I try to import data from a details view(i think the chart control renders before the detailsview?).


Here is three renderings.

Chart 1. just rendering from the datatable

Chart 2 The sqldatasource gets its para. from the values of two label controls to render the detailsview. The detailsview renders fine

Chart 3, the problem comes in when I try to extract the values from the DetailsView to populate the Chart, I loose the value. I am assuming the the datatable is built before the rendering of the detailsview? Lost at this point.
