MVC :: Entities Data Models With Multiple Categories Using A Membership Table?
Sep 18, 2010
(Using SQL Server 2008 and ASP.NET MVC2)I have a simple business table and a category table. I have a 3rd table to map business to category, a many-to-many relationship. the Map table contains a BusinessID and CategoryID. I'm lost as to how I can load the categories into my Business View Model using the entities model.Without incorporating categories, my code looks like this:
[Code]....
with Business View Model defined as:
[Code]....
but if i want to populate the Categories with the mapped categories, how would one do that?

I have a datamodel with a couple of tables. One of my tables have about 40 fields (I know that is a lot, but we have to keep the structure in place as we are upgrading a classic ASP project to MVC). Some of my Actions only updates 1 or 2 fields in my table.
Is there a way to create Entities, for instance, that only contains the contact details of the client table, and not any other details, and then another entity that contains only the address details. I don't want to submit the entire row when I only update telephone details, or the client's picture.

I have a parent View that uses a few partial views. Each partial view has its own custom model. The parent View is a model containing each of the partial view's model. In other words this parent View model is NOT flat.
How do i get POST data to bind with the parent's model object? Do i have to write a custom model binder?
Update I'm not binding to a collection of objects of the same type (ie: a collection of uploaded files). I'm binding to object that contains multiple of objects. For example:

When i use the query **var NewMatchs = (from x in entity.matches select x).LastOrDefault();** I got error like this **LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method 'SocialSports.Models.match LastOrDefault[match](System.Linq.IQueryable`1[SocialSports.Models.match])' method, and this method cannot be translated into a store expression.**

quick question: I have a view on my HomeController which is used to create a new 'model'. This view posts to a different controller to keep things tidy. The problem I am having is when I enter invalid details into the form, the rules I specified never seem to make it back to the original view and thus my validation messages or summary never get populated. Is there a way around this because I am using a view model with two IEnumerable lists in it.

I am building a little app to upload a picture and various downloads for different file types for the photos, but I also need be able to select the catergory they will go into. So I have two tables one that stores the catergory names and one that holds the paths to the photos and downloads the tables are related through the catergoryID.
What I need is those catergories to show up in the photo's and downloads table so that when I go to upload the photos I will be able to select the categories.
I have also built the DataSet and the Business Logic.

I've got three different tables of which I need to take data from to use in a gridview.
I have no problem binding data from a single table to a gridview using EF, but how would I go about joining?
I'm thinking about using Linq to Entities to do it, just not sure of the syntax?

I have a dozen dropdowns and each one is bound to an SP. The page was taking much time to load as time times db is getting connected and sps are called.I thought of using a single sp returning multiple recordsets and iterate through each record set.
Ex:create procedure getdeptsemps
as
begin
select
*
from emp
select
*
from dept
end
I am able to iterate through both the result sets using NextResultset but all I need to know is, how I can assign the recordset into multiple entities like Emp and Dept ?I will assign these Emp and Dept into corresponding dropdown lists.

I'm using Entity Framework.
I have 3 tables:
- Products (Primary key productId)
- Categories (Primary key categoryId)
- Product_to_categories (Table with two fields, CategoryId and ProductId)
One product can be assigned to multiple categories.
How should I download the products from specific category?
Now I retrieve them in that way:
int PageNum = 1;
int PageSize = 10;
int categoryId = 5;
var categoryModel = db.Categories.FirstOrDefault(c => c.CategoryId == categoryId);
var results = (from p in categoryModel.Products select p).Skip((PageNum - 1) * PageSize).Take(PageSize).ToList();
But when there is a lot of products in category my server crushed. I want only 10 products per page.

Using a very run-of-the-mill database, with identity int for primary keys, a Dynamic Data Entities Project (EntityFramework) displays the primary key for view and edit. When using Linq to Sql, the primary key fields are not displayed.
I would like to hide the primary keys and use Entity Framework (VS 2008, .Net 3.5 sp1).

How do I display more than one model per view? The above line limits me to only display UserProfiles. I want to also display other models, like UserJob and etc....how would I go about doing so?

I have placed a textbox, dropdownlist and command button in a section of my master page. The textbox, named txtsearch, will be used to input a search string. The dropdownlist, named ddlsearch, will be used to specify in which field to search in the table, either part name or NSN.
Questions:
What VB code do I use to save the value entered into txtsearch as a search string? How do I pass that value to my entitydatasource? How do I tell entitydatasource to search in either the part name or NSN field based on the value of ddlsearch?

I'm trying to design a page that displays all suppliers by their location. I'd quite like this to work from a query that will automatically include new locations added in the future.
At the moment my design has a table that holds 'locations' with locationID and locationName fields. In my 'suppliers' table I also have a locationID to join them.
I'm not sure how to query the database to return all the suppliers in location 1, then all in location 2. (Or even sure of the terms I need to Google to get some examples!) For example:
Location 1
Supplier 1
Supplier 2
Location 2
Supplier 3
Supplier 4

How do you handle multiple models in a view?. I have 2 tables. Member and MemberAddress
Member class contains Collection of MemberAddresses since a single member may have a billing and shipping address:
public class Member
{
public virtual int MemberId { get; set; }
public virtual string Username { get; set; }
public virtual bool IsActive { get; set; }
public virtual bool IsSame { get; set; }
[Code]....

i posted a question yesterday but it got taken off by moderator mbanavige with the reason indicating it was a duplicate post. i know for sure it was the first time i was asking that question. i will have to ask it again NOW because it was deleted. hope THIS one does not duplicate the one i made yesterday. so here goes:
I need to query a products table based on categories selected by the user. The selection of the categories is a checkbox list, and user can select any number of categories (including none at all). I only know how to compare one parameter at a time. Like this:

I'm trying to learn the ropes of ASP.NET MVC and so far so good. One thing which I haven't seen addressed yet is the 'right' or most elegant way to pass multiple data models to a view. To help put the question in context, take this example: Say I was making a blog. When I log in I want the home screen to display a list of all new unapproved comments, as well as a list of recently registered users, and a list of the most recently submitted blog posts.
Most discussions I've seen suggest strongly-typing the view page so it can be called with something like "return View(RecentComments)" and iterate through the comments in the view, or to cast the data model like "var NewUsers = (MembershipUserCollection) ViewData.Model". What I'm ideally after is the 'right', or at least a 'right-enough', way of passing multiple models while still maintaining appropriate logic separation.

<p>Hi</p> <p>I'm a newbie in MVC but a veteran web forms developer. I really like the idea of strongly typed views but what if I have multiple objects to pass to my razor view. Would I then NOT use strongly typed views and just use the ViewBag?</p>

So far I've seen demos of MVC that have simple pages, one for login, one for register, one for listing a table. In order to understand better the transition for WebForms developers into MVC patterns, I would like to understand how can I put together multiple CONTROLS (like the one provided by the default MVC project that VS2010 creates for us ...and make it work. OK so as an example, imagine we want to change the LogonUserControl.ascx to allow us to login (so to show UserName and Password textboxes and Logon button) from the Home Page.
1) We update the Control as follow:
2) We update the HomeController.cs file to handle the Logon Button Post event as follow:
We needed to move some code from AccountController to HomeController in order to get the control to work under the Index view. So ...with little luck it seems to work! Now the problem happens when you navigate to the Register view, considering that now we are not any longer on the HomeController "domain" but we are under AccountController. Register page shows perfectly and since the LogOnUserControl.ascx belongs to the MasterPage, it shows too. Since we are not logged yet, it will be displaying the UserName and Password textboxes. But we don't really care about that, because we are on the Register view and after populating the Register values, we click on the Register button. This is the error I get:
>>> To me that I come from the WebForms world, it seems like even if the event fired was the Register button (therefore under the AccountController domain), there is a kind of hidden OnInit event fired for any control on that view, in this case the Logon event. I'm sure this is NOT the case but the real question is... if we are allowed to have only one Controller x view, how can we put together controls that come from different "controller domains" and display them inside a single view?
Could I develop an eCommerce site using MVC that has the home page displaying different controls like [Most Purchased Product, Product of the Month, Special Promotions, Messages Inbox, Company Events ... and each control has it's own button to click and do something (so a proper POST request)] on the home page, unless I only have ONE single Controller which i'm not even sure if it will work or if it would make sense ....since MVC is all about separation of responsibilities.
