Inheriting From DataSourceControl Doesn't Produce IDataSource

Feb 15, 2010

I am trying to create a custom datasource control. I have been following this article to the letter (I think...). I have a skeleton / basic implementation of my datasource, however when I declare it in the markup and try to statically bind it to a gridview, I receive the following error:

The DataSourceID of 'grdVw' must be the ID of a control of type IDataSource

This seems extremely strange to me, since my datasource inherits from DataSourceControl, which in turn implements IDataSource. Even if I explicitly implement IDataSource in my custom datasource, it makes no difference. My Markup is:

<DataBrokerDataSource ID="objSrcDBroker" runat="server" />
<div>
<asp:GridView ID="grdVw" DataSourceID="objSrcDBroker" DataMember="Table0" runat="server">
</asp:GridView>
</div>
<div>
<asp:GridView id="grdVw2" DataSourceID="objSrcDBroker" DataMember="Table1" runat="server">
</asp:GridView>
</div>

And my control is:

Public Class DataBrokerDataSource
Inherits DataSourceControl
Implements IDataSource 'Have tried with this statement included AND excluded = same result
Protected Overrides Function GetView(ByVal viewName As String) As System.Web.UI.DataSourceView Implements IDataSource.GetView
'Code here
End Function
Protected Overrides Function GetViewNames() As System.Collections.ICollection Implements IDataSource.GetViewNames
'Code here
End Function
End Class

Looking at the stack trace shows that the error originates at:
System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataBoundControl.GetDataSource().

I have examined this method in reflector (see below), looking at this (based on the error message that I am getting) it appears to me as though the FindControl part is succeeding but that the source = control as IDataSource; leaves source as a null value, i.e. the conversion fails - But Why?

protected virtual IDataSource GetDataSource()
{
if ((!base.DesignMode && this._currentDataSourceValid) && (this._currentDataSource != null))
{
return this._currentDataSource;
}
IDataSource source = null;
string dataSourceID = this.DataSourceID;
if (dataSourceID.Length != 0)
{
Control control = DataBoundControlHelper.FindControl(this, dataSourceID);
if (control == null)
{
throw new HttpException(SR.GetString("DataControl_DataSourceDoesntExist", new object[] { this.ID, dataSourceID }));
}
source = control as IDataSource;
if (source == null)
{
throw new HttpException(SR.GetString("DataControl_DataSourceIDMustBeDataControl", new object[] { this.ID, dataSourceID }));
}
}
return source;
}

Forms Data Controls :: Paging And Bidirectional Sorting Gridview Without DatasourceControl?

Aug 11, 2010

I've reviewed a couple other sources and none seem to be complete, there is always a 'oh, ya, but you have to do this if you have this, or comments left about it not working etc... So this is my attempt to get a complete answer in one place. No datasourceControl, datasource being assigned programatically upon a button click event. My button click event that originally binds data to the gridview looks like this:

[Code]....

and of course the first code I try to implement the paging, doesn't work. Which is this:

[Code]....

the result is not an error, just an empty gridview. What am I missing? That's just an example of most of the examples out there saying how simple it is and you only need a few lines of code being wrong, or maybe not wrong, but incomplete. So I'm not going to even bother with the bidirectional sorting examples I came accross as there are usually comments about it not working, or not actually being bidirectional. I'm sure it is simple, once you actually have the information you need, getting that information is the harder part. So, anyone here care to take a shot at a complete example of implementing paging and bidirectional sorting on a gridview when not using a datasourceControl?

SQL Server :: Produce DDl Box From DB Query

Feb 11, 2011

I am trying to produce a DDL box with the following listing from a DB query.

13245
12345-
12346
12348
12348-R

Some 5 digit codes do not include a suffix in the record, the following query will only show the 5 digit codes with a suffix.

SELECT itemCode + '-' + itemSuffix AS code, keyID, itemCode, itemSuffix
FROM item
ORDER BY itemCode

How can I get the codes without a suffix to appear with the codes that have a suffix? The itemSuffix field in the DB is NULL for no data records.

AJAX :: Inheriting From ServerControl That Uses IScriptControl

Mar 30, 2010

I've written a ServerControl that contains a significant amount of javascript, and I'm using IScriptControl to pass parameters from the server code to the javascript. The javascript file is configured as an embedded resource, and a script reference to the file is being injected into the html by IScriptControl.GetScriptReferences(). The ServerControl is contained in a DLL assembly. When I use the control in a test page everything works fine.

What I want to do is to extend the control - to derive a new control from it, in a second assembly, that provides some extended functionality. (The first assembly contains code that is shared across customers, the second code that is shared across several projects for the same customer). So, my problem: I create a new ServerControl that derives from the first, but doesn't yet provide any new functionality.

[Code]....

Then I change my "<%@ Register ... %>" tag in the test page to reference the derived control. Things compile just fine, and the code-behind runs fine, but I get an undefined variable error in javascript. Sys.Application.add_init() is calling $create(), passing the <namespace>.<classname> of the javascript class, and it's throwing an error on the namespace.

Now, the namespace is registered on the first line of javascript file. Which makes it look like the javascript file might not be being included, when using the derived control. So I stuck a "debugging" line in front of the Type.registerNamespace(). Using the base control, the debugger breaks as it should. Using the derived control, it does not.

So, I look at the script includes in both versions of the page. They are identical. The sources are src="/testing/WebResource.axd?<random junk>", or src="/testing/ScriptResource.axd?<random junk", so I'm not sure which one refers to my embedded javascript file, but whichever one it is, the includes are identical between the page using the base control that works and the page using the derived control that does not.

Web Forms :: Inheriting From A Web User Control?

Mar 3, 2010

I have a web user control, let's call it Control1.Control1 has a placeholder control in it defined in the Control1.ascx, and that placeholder control gets a bunch of controls connected to it dynamically at run time.I recently found the need to extend Control1, so I inherited from it. Now I have Control2 : Control1.

Control2 also has a placeholder control defined in it is aspx, Control2.ascx. However, when the Control2 class calls a member method of the base class, I find that the base class placeholder control goes out of scope and the member method tries to refer to the base classes placeholder (which, having never been initialized, is null).

How do I ensure that the two classes refer to a shared instance of the placeholder class?

C# - Inheriting From A System.Web.UI.UserControl Base Class?

Feb 28, 2011

First off, I am wondering if this is possible. I read slight grumblings around the internet about this, but I was not entirely sure.

My scenario: I have a base chart class which has some methods which all charts should have.

public partial class BaseChart : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
public BaseChart()
{
}
public void ToggleLegend()
{
Chart1.Legends[0].Enabled = !Chart1.Legends[0].Enabled;
}
}

There is also some mark-up for this BaseChart -- setting background colors, etc. All charts which inherit BaseChart should use this starting mark-up and be able to build upon it.

I would then like to do this:

public partial class HistoricalLineChart : BaseChart
{
public HistoricalLineChart()
: base()
{

public HistoricalLineChart(int reportID)
: base()
{
Chart1.Titles[0].Text = "Hello World";
}
}

where HistoricalLineChart is a web user control with no mark-up e.g. "HistoricalLineChart.ascx"

The problem is that Chart1 is undefined when in HistoricalLineChart's scope. Is there something that I am missing here?

Make Custom Validators Produce Alert

Mar 3, 2010

All ASP.Net client validation messages can be shown as an alert by setting the ShowMessageBox="True" property on the ValidationSummary control. This works fine for anything that happens on the client.

For the custom validators that validate server-side I had assumed that what would happen is that when the page is returned to the browser, ASP.Net would inject some javascript to show the alert box. However this isnt the case.

If you had relied on the message box to show detail and just have a * next to the erroneous field (as per my clients req's) then it wont work as intended. Does anyone have a solution for doing this? What I want is a way to possibly override the ValidationSummary control to inject javascript onto the page or something like this.

I've written a ASP.NET app that I hope to sell to businesses, I could host the trial but it's designed to connect to the customers data so customers will certainly want to install it to do a successful evaluation.

I've never produced anything commercial before so I'm looking for advice on how best to limit the trial, a 30 day trial seems most common, do you simply rely on the clock of the PC/Server they install it on? keep in mind this is ASP.NET app so will be installed on their web server.

C# - How To Make Property Declarable As Any Inheriting Type In Markup

Feb 2, 2010

I've seen various controls in ASP.NET with "collections" of objects, which you can use markup to define. For example:

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
<Triggers>
<asp
/Triggers>
</asp:UpdatePanel>

In the above example, you can add any number of triggers, and they can be of any type that extends UpdatePanelTrigger. I'd like to do something similar, but with only a single item instead of a collection

MVC :: Inheriting From RequiredAttribute Breaks Client Side Validation

Feb 22, 2010

I've subclassed the RequiredAttribute with am implementation that leverages existing localization resources. When I use my subclassed attribute, the client side validation code generated MVC when Html.EnableClientValidation() is invoked doesn't work as it fails to recognise the parent RequiredAttribute type.

I've tried to override the GetType() method to try and cloak my subclass and this didn't work. I've also had a look at some of the solutions out there for implementing a localizable RequiredAttribute where some solutions require you to subclass it or implement a provider which I already have. For the purpose of my implementation, another layer of localization is not an option.

Here is my implementation of the RequiredAttribute subclass leveraging a localization provider:

[Code]....

When I attribute a model property with the above, client side validation is broken, however, with the original RequiredAttribute class, client side validation works as expected. Does anyone have a workaround to solve this issue or would it be suitable to recommend that the code that generates the client side validation scans the inheritance hierarchy for a RequiredAttribute type and morph my subclass into the base class.

Want C# ASPX Page To Produce Plain Text Rather Than HTML

Jul 29, 2010

I have a C# project in Visual Studio that produces an aspx page. The code I am editing is in default.asp.cs. When I build the project a file default.aspx is produced. This file looks something like this:

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="CSRValidationConnector._Default" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" [URL]-transitional.dtd">

<head runat="server">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>

When I make my web request most of this page comes back. But I want the page to return only plain text and not any of this HTML. How do I configure things so that nothing is returned except what I add via Response.Write calls in default.aspx.cs?
