I've added some custom properties via the <profile> node in the web.config. In a view, I can access the custom properties using <%= Html.Encode(Profile.CustomProperty) %> so I know the class is being automatically generated. However, in the Controller, the ProfileCommon just doesn't exist. Do I need to include a specific namespace for this to work or is it simply not supported?
I'd like to add some properties to logged in user. The last time I did this was a website made in VS2005 and ProfileCommon worked just fine. It seems however that this class is not included in web applications in general and .NET 4.0 in particular. I there for assume there is now a better way of doing this. Could anyone tell me what it is? In short I'd like to add PersonID to user's login to make it easy to hide information not related to that particular user by setting controllers like
if (!User.IsInRole("Administrator") { var item = PickLists.GetPerson(User.Profile.PersonID); // or something like it return View(); } var item = PickList.GetPeople(); return View(); }
UML and Patterns: An Introduction to Object-Oriented Analysis and Design and Iterative Development, that follows the UP(Unified Process). It uses a Grasp Controller pattern to interact with domain classes by some methods like NewSale(), AddNewItemToSale() and CloseSale. In windows form, I can instantiate a object of this class in the UI and then use its methods to perform the actions. This works well in Client apps, but when I use asp.net mvc, I cannot find a way to instantiate an object (one for each user) that was always visible for a Controller (MVC). I cannot insert as an attribute inside Controller because it always create a new one.
I currently have a ProfileCommon enabled on my site and would like to know where I would start to transfer this ProfileCommon's context to a user's profile after he/she has logged in. Here is a snippet of how I have defined this ProfileCommon:
I try to get the user profile settings with this code. But all items in it are empty, in the database they are not empty. So there is going something wrong. First of oll how can i add a provider to the ProfileCommon ? Maybe i'm there then... the usrInfo is filled well...
my MVC2 delete and only my delete controller is refusing to return any class information. Its really similar to my edit function and the views are all auto-generated so I don't see the problem.
Function Delete(ByVal id As Integer) As ActionResult
I have a simple model where a Person has Gifts. I have a view which is a list of Gifts belonging to one Person.
My problem is with the Create action for a new Gift. I want it to default to the PersonID that we are already viewing the list of Gifts for. I tried simply passing the last PersonID (they are all the same)
Html.ActionLink("Create New", "Create", new { id = Model.Last().PersonID }) which works fine if there is already at least one Gift for that person but if this is the first Gift I don't have a value.
My Gift List controller knows the PersonID I want to pass but the view doesn't.
How do I pass this PersonID from my Gift List controller to my Gift Create controller via the Gift List view? Or is there a better way to do this?
I have a filter on my MVC web site. I display some records in a few different controller actions but when moving from one action to another I want to apply those filter values.
How can I persist values from controller to controller?
Should I use Session? TempData?
I am using Structure Map for IOC.
Maybe I could have a class that contains a Property for each Session Value that I use in my application and inject it on the controllers that need session?
I have a User entity and a department entity. I have a UserViewModel and DepartmentListModel which has List of departments.
UserViewModel has a property of type DepartmentListModel .
Now on user/create action I need to populate DepartmentListModel by calling DepartmentController's list action. List action returns populated DepartmentListViewModel.
From UserController how do I set DepartmentListModel ?
Say I have several Areas that are baed on user roles.Differnet roles have different functionality, but also have some "shared" functionality like say "Payments"Now, I created a PaymentController (and it's views for listing, creating messages) in Shared (not an area) and it works fine.
Would it be possible (and how?) to create a PaymentsController class in one of the Areas, have that inherit the PaymentController Class in Shared?
If I can do this, I can successfully share common functionality across areas, and at the same time extend the derived controller to include some 'area specific' functionality to common shared controllers. (Such as the "REturn to xxxx" text and route of the returnurl, which are a bit more complicated than I just made it sound)

After username and password are verified inHome Controllers method , i want to show the User Controllers index page , so i have to callindex method of Home controller..How can i do it.
Also on the page I have a link that goes to another view to add an assistant for the application. I want to pass it the application ID so that the new assistant can be "linked" to this application. How would I get the value of 1 and add it to my action link? This is what I have in my HTML so far:
<%: Html.ActionLink("Add New Assistant", "Create", "Assistant", new { applicationID = "id" }, null) %>
I cant get to directcontroller url (I have change the routing so it will fit into my paging system but I cant fit it also to get the controller url without action (I can gethttp://localhost:51443/home/inde )but I would like to get also "clean" url like http://localhost:51443/home
i get an error: "The controller for path '/favicon.ico' was not found or does not implement IController"
then i thought: how does the framework know for which files it has to instantiate a controller, because the same thing is true for script, css and other files (never thought of that, but now the favicon is complaining, i was wondering....
public ActionResult Details(int? aaaID, int? bbbID)
and I am trying to route the url http://..../controller/aaa/23432 to action Details.
routes.MapRoute( "controller", // Route name "controller/aaa/{id}", // URL with parameters new { controller = "controller", action = "Details", lblID = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults);However, the aaaID of function Details also get a null value?
