Forms Data Controls :: Gridview Cannot Find The Method With The Signature?
Apr 23, 2010
i have a dynamic data layer, i.e every user can add custom fields to database tables, so i need dynamic methods in my application.
i know i can use params to specify a variable number of parameters for a method, but the gridview in asp.net looks for a method with the same fields it is updating, i.e if gridview updates fields :name, age, phone, email(suppose email is a custom field of a certain user i.e it doesn't exit for another), and the object data source calls the update method with signature : (name, age, phone, params object[] custom_attributes) an error is generated that the gridview can not find the method with the signature(name, age, phone, email)
I have two methods that do the similar thing. There are small differences here and there, which I can control by passing arguments to them when I call them, so I can effectively merge them. However one returns a string, and the other one an ArrayList. On the top of my head, I could merge them and return an Object, and then get the information I need. Is there a way though to return multiple types in the method's signature? What's the proper way to implement this?
I have method that I call which needs to find all the panels in the page but it fails. I have another method that was created by the VS has the traditional paraeters such the object sender, EventArgs e that the similar code works fine but the (simplyfied) code below. It is clear to me that these parameters contain information that makes one method work while the other not, but I don't know why.
The code breaks on the last line of code: _pnlAssetInfo = (Panel.....
I have datagrid that is connected via an object data source (VS 2008 / VB). I want to use paging. I have created the required attributes in the ASPX code shown below and with a corresponding Select method. Yet I get the error shown below even throug there is a select method that should work. I have set forth below the error, the ASPX code and the first part of the Select Method.
Most likely the later, I think. In my page I have a GridView, DatailsView, and the ODS. None of my commands work. For the Udate command I get a an error "ObjectDataSource 'ObjectDataSource1' could not find a non-generic method 'UpdateVirtual' that has parameters: name, notes, active, original_ident." For the Delete command I get "ObjectDataSource 'ObjectDataSource1' could not find a non-generic method 'DeleteVirtual' that has parameters: ident, original_ident." Yet the Insert command in the DetailsView works fine. Originally I've copied a file that performs virtually identical task, the only difference is a different database and the Select command. I had the Delete command working for for while but that one too broke. Can someone point out what I'm doing wring?
I need to validate a digital signature which consists of thumb impression,signature and tokenid which is in pendrive with a columns of a table in sqlserver2008 database. I am using capicom.dll in asp.net 3.5 using c#.
I have a DetailsView control about a store products.
When I hit the "Edit" button of the DetailsView control, I want to bind a DropDownList to list products categories and select the current product category in it.
I used the method "ModeChanged" to select the current product category like this:
[Code]....
the FindControl method DOES NOT find the "ddlCategory" (returns null) although it's present in the EditTemplateField.
I'm thinking to use "DropDownList's PreRender" event for doing the purpose I aim, but I want to know what is wrong!
I have detailsview control with bound fields...some using Templatefields. I am trying to access values in those fields but i get nulls....i really dont know why..I am proving all my code....
I guess something might be getting messy with the mode changing event... a postback? But if i remove the databinding code, i get an error! why find control returns null??

I would like to find controls in the detailsview control placed in the EmptyData Template of the gridview. I am trying to create Insert new record for the gridview control.

When I click on the Insert button it saves new record and sets the field with the value (code attached - works fine). I also have a popup extender that opens detailsview - this works just fine.
2, If ther are not records in the table - saves record but cannot find and set controls on the detailsview Same thing setup in the EmptyData Template. The record is saved but I cannot Find and set the field value on the control.
1. Link button (on click) in the gridview footer (works fine)
