MVC :: Computed Column Vs Field In Partial Class?
Jun 28, 2010
I have a table of people with columns holding bits of info about them. I also need a variety of computed columns such as FileAs (lastname + ", " + firstname) and CityStateZip (you get the idea). I am wondering where best to put these definitions. It's worthwhile to note that the user will want to search for things as seen on the page, not the little atoms in the table. For example, searching on ", e" finds everyone whose first name begins with E. Typing ", az" to get everyone who lives in Arizona.
I noticed that linq-to-sql queries only recognize the fields in the table definitions, not any that are added in the partial class associated with the dbml. Linq-to-sql does work against computed columns in the database; however, the column definitions--especially for international address formats--will become very complex and much better handled in code.

I have the following GridView:
<asp:GridView ID="gv" AutoGenerateColumns="false" runat="server">
<Columns>
<asp:BoundField DataField="productName" HeaderText="Item" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="unitCost" HeaderText="Cost" DataFormatString="{0:c}" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="originalCount" ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center" HeaderText="Old Count" />
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="New Count" ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center" >
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="NewCount" Width="20" runat="server" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
And I want to add a final 'Total' column that calculates (originalCount - NewCount) * unitCost and updates it as the user enters a number in the NewCount text box. Can I do this just with .net, or do I need to use Java? If the latter, how do I tell which Gridview cell to update?

After looking for a driver to open legacy dbf drivers to connect, the next level trouble a have is this one: first, i can retrieve the data but when trying to filter by a parameter (somesc columns) i get an error. The error says about the database can't determine. The error is a columm tha is formated ( 1234 ) about 8 space, fixed. The values in the query appears like that. I resolve this by Trimming Ltrim(ColumnName) and i get this (1234). Now in SqlExpress, how can i filter by the new Trimmed Expression? (This is a primary key that the DBF use)
Sample:
SELECT column1, column2, column3
TABLE FoxProDB
Now
SELECT Ltrim(column1) as NewExp, column2, column3
TABLE FoxProDB
Where NewExpre = @NewExpres -Error-

Using vs2008 I have a SQL Server database attached to my web app. I want to use a computed time column in the database, along the lines of :
timenow is 1 column
hoursleft is another column
timeend would be another column.
I want timeend to = timenow + hoursleft. Is it possible to do that, and if so what would the formula be that I would enter into the computed column field, and, what datatype would the columns be, timenow and timeend I would expect to be time(7) and hoursleft an int. But is that correct?

I have a datatable in MS SQL that has FirstName and LastName. In MS SQL I created a computed field called FullName that was ((rtrim([LastName])+', ')+rtrim([FirstName])) I created a DataSet and a Business Logic Layer. In my typed DataSet I saw FullName in the listing when I created it. I am able to use FullName in my webpage. I use it to populate a dropdownlist. However, now when I make changes to the Customer Table I am getting this error message (seen below)
Question: Should I have created the field FullName in my MS SQL Table or should I have left it alone and somehow just added a column to the DataSet and placed an expression in the FullName column? The column "FullName" cannot be modified because it is either a computed column or is the result of a UNION operator. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

I have stumbled into a problem in which Im having a hard time solving. I have a linq data setup(based on a mssql) where a Purchase Order contains a number Equipments - each equipment has a price. I have a gridview that shows the summed price of the equipments that are included in a Purchase Order. This sum is currently being calculated on RowDataBound through a "listOfEq.Sum(Eq => Eq.PurchaseOrderPrice);" expression which works without any problems. My problem is that I want to be able to sort the gridview based on this summed value, which I cannot do with a normal sortexpression. My next thought was to create a function in my database to calculate the sum instead and then use this is my data basis for the summed column. I have created a function like this:
[Code]....
I want to create a sortable column based on this data. My thought is something like this:
[Code]....
Displaying the correct information is not a problem, however creating the sorting is. Im not sure what to put in the SortExpression. Anybody got an idea of what to do? Perhaps I am forced to use a computed column for this however I dont know to create this column when its based on another table. If this is the case, any idea about how to do create a computed column thats based on data from another table?

I'm trying to define a computed column that will contain an auto-incremented number. In other words, I want it to work exactly like identity, but since I can have only one identity column per table, I wanted to make a computed column that reads its latest value and increment it by 1.

I am using Visual Studio 2008 with .Net 2.0
I am maintaining and old application in ASP.Net and it has one CustomGridView control with 4000 lines of code. I see that in that file only, when I try to modify any code the IDE does not respond quickly as it does for other files. I thought of creating partial classes for the same but it seems that VS is not reconginzing the new partial class. I am trying to use the variables from the old partial class and it is not able to reconize any variable or method.

I have 2 projects. A data project, which contains my database and my Entity Framework model. I have table called 'User', and then have a generated EF class for user. I am trying to add a partial class:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Data.Linq;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
namespace Data
{
public partial class user
{
public bool isValid
{
get {
return (GetRuleViolations().Count()==0);
}
}
public IEnumerable<RuleViolation> GetRuleViolations()
{
yield break;
}
partialvoid OnValidate(ChangeAction action)
{
if (isValid)
throw new ApplicationException("Rule violation prevents saving");
}
}
public class RuleViolation
{
public string ErrorMessage { get; private set; }
public string PropertyName { get; private set; }
public RuleViolation (string errorMessage)
{
ErrorMessage = errorMessage;
}
public RuleViolation(string errorMessage, string propertyName)
{
ErrorMessage = errorMessage;
PropertyName = propertyName;
}
}
}
This is following the MVC 1.0 NerdDinner example. However, I am getting a design time error on the OnValidate method:
partial void OnValidate(ChangeAction action)
{
if (isValid)
throw new ApplicationException("Rule violation prevents saving");
}
No definining declaration found for implimenting declaration of partial method 'void OnValidate(ChangeAction action)' What am I doing wrong?

I've looked around and I can't seem to find a good answer on this. Is there any cleanup needed on a strongly typed dataSet? I'm using DataSets as my DAL but I don't really have a BLL. I'm handling this in my code behind like this:
[Code]....
I'm assuming it handles the opening and closing of the connetion? The adapter has a dispose method. Should I be using this? Is there any cleanup necessary or does the partial class (that inherits system.data.dataset) handle all of this?

i am using linqtosql dbml to create table classes automatically.
however each time i update my database or dbml diagram, it refreshs designer.cs file and all code i wrote is gone.
so, i decided to make partial class to keep certain information alive.
but here is my question :
for example, User class is defined as follow in designer.cs file :
[Code]....
public string UserID{get;set;}
}
but if i do this, i get error message because UserID is already defined in designer.cs file.
should i delete all UserID variable in designer.cs each time i update the dbml?
i believe there should be a better way to do it

I am tasked with customizing a third-party web application. Since the application is updated (ie new files are copied over the existing files) several times a year, I was hoping that I could put my custom code in separate files -- sort of like having asecond code-behind file for each page that is modified.

I have a website that i converted from asp .net 1.1 to 2.0 and now i have one page that said ambiguous reference because in 1.1.all controls needed to be defined in the class as well. Well after deleting those and leaving only the declares in the Markup,it says that the variables do not exists in current context. Intellisense allows me to use and reference them from the page but when trying to build it leaves me with that error.
