MVC :: Using RenderPartial To Display A List Of Objects?
Mar 12, 2011
I am making my first attempt at using RenderPartial to display a list of objects, but so far having little success. Here is my code, can somebody give me some guidance on what I am doing wrong?
I'm creating in my code a list of object which must be displayed later in a table.
In Winforms I'd simply bind the DataGridView to the list, and everything is fine.
However, when I try to set the GridView's data source to the list, nothing happens, and I can't find a way to do this with any of the procided data sources(Such as ObjectDataSource, etc.).
have some Objects, lets say Employee and Role defined as below and I have defined relationships in my database that gives me a list of objects say employees and thanks to my framework each employee object also has a Role object linked via the RoleIDID, UserName, Password, Email, RoleIDRoleID, RoleNameSo in code I can do something like this
I know how to bind a simple objects to a dropdown list. However I am having problems binding my objects which contains sub objects to the control.i.e. with simple object i just do ddl.DataValueField = "myproperty" with my objects they contains sub objects which i want to bind. I have tried ddl.DataValueField = "sub-object.myproperty" which doesnt work.
Currently i am having a list like List<Tickets> allTickets.I need to select in the same list some corresponding info about the ticket writer like List<Ticket, aspnet_User>.
I have a list of objects (List1) and I am trying to make a copy of this list (List2) and then change one of the fields in the new list.I used :
List<MyObj> List2 = new List<MyObj>(); List2.AddRange(List1); I alos tried: List<MyObj> List2 = new List<MyObj>(List1); But regardless of the method, when I do: foreach (MyObj o in List2) o.some_field = 2
it not only changes the field in Lis2 but alos in List1. Not sure what I am missing here.
I have a list of objects and I would like to create my own custom control that pages through the list using Jquery to make the Ajax calls to my pager methods. I've had some experience with Jquery but need a helping hand and I really don't want to use update panels etc. So the scenario is.....user clicks next, the C# method is called using Ajax, the code gets the relevant data and sends re-populates the UI with the next item in the list.
I'm using asp.net mvc2 and trying to send a list of json objects with hard coded values from the home controller, and receive them in index.... in the code below i'm sending 1 json object. how do i send many?
I have a List of objects in an asp.net page. when the page loads in the browser for the first time, I fetch data from the database, create objects with those data and populate the list. All these are done inside the page load event handler. Now when the page is posted back to the page, the previous list is gone, since the variables were all freed.
How can I cache that List, so that when this page is posted back, all my objects are available?
Action method takes as id parameter and returns 2 lists (eg. List<object1> and List<object2>) of objects back to the view. In order to achieve this, the viewmodel is created as below;
I finding myself repeating myself and the DRY side is nagging me to find an abstraction. I have a number of different entities in an MVC3 Razor web app. They are all business objects and each has a number of different properties that I show to the user in a list. So I have Index views and List partial views for each of these different entities (there are at least 10). I would like to abstract the List partial view so that it's capable of displaying a list of any type of entity. It simply shows them in a table with a column for each property and a row for each entity. My current thinking is that I could receive a list of objects and then use Reflection to see what properties those objects have and use those to make columns. I really wish I could receive a generic List somehow and from my various controllers just pass in an anonymous object (new {Parameter 1=param1, Parameter 2=param2}, etc.) but then I discovered that it's not possible to pass anonymous objects around.
I'm really new to MVC (just started a few weeks ago) and new to Ajax (never looked at it before today). I need some design / technical advice concerning Ajax, MVC, loading partial views, and posting / getting from a view. What I'd like to do it load a partial view that takes in a list of objects that have been queried from my db into an details-type view. The details view already has some other content that has been handeled and loaded from information pulled from my database and setup through some actions. It is strongly types to a model.
Below is the partial view I've created thus far:
[Code]....
And here's a portion of the Details page:
[Code]....
I'm not sure what to do for the Ajax.ActionLink. I'd like for a use to be able to type into the text box on it's left and hit "Add" (the Ajax link) and have the application add the content in the text box to the database. Should it be something else? An <input>? The Controller code piece is below:
[Code]....
So it should be adding the member into the repo / db and then reload the contents of the partialview. Instead, it's reloading the whole page and not just the partial view. (the url is changing from /project/details/5 to /project/membersection/).
I am using Linq To Sql to get List of objects with data from database. To bind data with a grid view i am creating a dataset explicitly and then adding List values to that explicitly created dataset.
Now my question is whether it is a good pratice to do what i am doing (in terms of resource utilization) or is there any better way to this...
I am just learning ASP.NET c# and trying to incorporate best practices into my applications. Everything that I read says to layer my applications into DAL, BLL, UI, etc based on separation of concerns. Instead of passing datatables around, I am thinking about using custom objects so that I am loosely coupled to my data layer and can take advantage of intellisense in VS. I assume these objects would be considered DTOs?
First, where do these objects reside in my layers? BLL, DAL, other?
Second, when populating from SQL, should I loop through a data reader to populate the list or first fill a data table, then loop through the table to populate the list? I know you should close the database connection as soon as possible, but it seems like even more overhead to populate the data table and then loop through that for the list.
Third, everything I see these days says use Linq2SQL. I am planning to learn Linq2SQL, but at this time I am working with a legacy database that doesn't have foreign keys setup and I do not have the ability to fix it atm. Also, I want to learn more about c# before I start getting into ORM solutions like nHibernate. At the same time I don't want to type out all the connection and SQL plumbing for every query. Is it ok to use the Enterprise DAAB for now?
I have a model containing a List with custom objects, let's say Customer objects. Like this:
[Code]....
In the View I print out (for simplicity) the name and id of the customer objects on the model. How to restore these values on postback if the method signature looks like this:
[Code]....
Should I use hidden values? This is not possible if the List contains items of interface type, for example List<ICustomer> where ICustomer is an interface. Is there any other way to "save" the values on each postback? For example I may want to view validation error messages when the user submits the form and then the properties of the customer object must still be there..
Nothing I find on the Internet is working.This is the closest I've gotten. It produces an output file without exceptioning but the output file has blank lines. But it's the correct number of blank lines.
Code: public void WriteCSV<T>(IEnumerable<T> items, string path) { Type itemType = typeof(T); var props = itemType.GetProperties(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance) .OrderBy(p => p.Name);

I have a List of Customers. Now I want to display these customers in a gridview and that is easy. I just set the datasource and use the databind method of the gridview. (I use template fields). But now I want to display FirstName and LastName of the customer as one column.I am aware of how to use the rowdatabound event to manipulate the gridviewrow's controls, but I am not sure how to gain access to the customer object within this method.So here is some code which of course not works.
I need to pass a list of Entity Objects from Controller to View but not put it in the Model context. It is the users homepage, but I am putting a list of alerts on the users home page(somewhat like facebook). So I need the User Context as the Model I pass but need to pass the Alert model as well so I can show the list of alerts.. How would I do that? The code below is what I have so far..
I've created a blog for my first asp.net website. Ive got a blog class as my object. Ive created a number of methods to access my blog articles using LINQ to SQL.
Each method returns a list of objects ready to be used in the appropriate web user control.
In my head i need to cache these lists of objects that are returned, but need to know the best way of approaching this. So i have come up with two possible options
1: Make one method to retrieve all blogs in a list<Blog> and cache this list to be used for all other methods or
2: Cache only the required methods that really need it.
I'm new on LINQ and I'm searching the best way to do this:
I have an object client that has a list of subscriptions. Subcription has a boolean attribute "Active". Now I want load only the clients with list > 0 and subscription active.
The question is: If a client has 3 subscriptions, but only 2 are active, how can I load only the latters ? I tried in this way:
[Code]....
The query selects clients that has at least one subscription active, but viewing the results, it loads also subscriptions not active of the same client.
I have a form that I don't want to post back so I need to get the form values into my controller via jquery's ajax method.Here is my test controller method:
[Code]....
When I debug the controller method and look at the lineItems parameter, it always contains 0 items. I've tried various formats for the javascipt lineItems parameter but still 0 items. I'm also open to some other way of getting these values in like the jquery form serialze method or something else.
