C# Mvc 3 Using Selectlist With Selected Value In View
Jan 2, 2011I'm working on a MVC3 web application. I want a list of categories shown when editing a blo from whe applications managements system. In my viewmodel i've got the following property defined for a list of selectlistitems for categories.
/// <summary>
/// The List of categories
/// </summary>
[Display(Name = "Categorie")]
public IEnumerable<SelectListItem> Categories { get; set; }
The next step, my controller contains the following edit action where the list of selectlistitems is filled from the database.
public ActionResult Edit(Guid id)
{
var blogToEdit = _blogService.First(x => x.Id.Equals(id));
var listOfCategories = _categorieService.GetAll();
var selectList = listOfCategories.Select(x =>new SelectListItem{Text = x.Name, Value = x.Id.ToString(), Selected = x.Id.Equals(blogToEdit.Category.Id)}).ToList();
selectList.Insert(0, new SelectListItem{Text = Messages.SelectAnItem, Value = Messages.SelectAnItem});
var viewModel = new BlogModel
{
BlogId = blogToEdit.Id,
Active = blogToEdit.Actief,
Content = blogToEdit.Text,
Title = blogToEdit.Titel,
Categories = selectList //at this point i see the expected item being selected
//Categories = new IEnumerable<SelectListItem>(listOfCategories, "Id", "Naam", blogToEdit.CategorieId)
};
return View(viewModel);
}
When i set a breakpoint just before the view is being returned, i see that the selectlist is filled as i expected. So at this point everything seems to be okay. The viewmodel is filled entirely correct.
Then in my view (i'm using Razor) i've got the following two rules which are supposed to render the selectlist for me.
@Html.LabelFor(m => m.Categories) @Html.DropDownListFor(model=>model.Categories, Model.Categories, Model.CategoryId)
@Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.Categories)
When I run the code and open the view to edit my blog, I can see all the correct data. Also the selectlist is rendered correctly, but the item i want to be selected lost it's selection. How can this be? Until the point the viewmodel is being returned with the view everything is okay. But when i view the webpage in the browser, the selectlist is there only with out the correct selection. What am I missing here? Or doing wrong?

View 1 RepliesMVC :: SelectList And Dropdown Value - Get A Null?
Nov 18, 2010I cannot get my code to work with the usual workarounds. I have a model which exposes a SelectList and a value for the selected item in it. The list is built like: new SelectList(persons, "Id", "Name");
where persons is an array of type Person with a *string* property named Id and a string property named Name. My model has a SelectList property returning a list built as shown, and a SelectedPersonId *string* property which should be updated by the dropdown. Here's my view code:
Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.SelectedPersonId, Model.PersonList)
I can see the persons in the dropdown and select one item, but the model's SelectedPersonId property never gets updated (I get a null). Of the two workarounds I found googling around, one stated to build the SelectList in the model, using the constructor shown above; another recommended to ensure that the selected value is a string. I did both, but still it does not work.
MVC :: Instantiating SelectList In Code?
Feb 25, 2011I had been building my SelectLists in the View, but I found examples doing it in code that I liked better. Now I'm creating one of my SelectLists like this:
[Code]....
And all is good, but I'm not sure how to do two things. First, I'd like to add an initial SelectListItem that prompts the user to select a value. When instantiating the SelectList in a loop this is easy, but I was hoping to keep this approach. The second problem is setting the default selected item. In the constructor it shows the 4th parameter to be used for this purpose, but I'm not certain how to do it. There's a property of this object named "DefaultView". It's a boolean, and I'd like that to determine the selected state. Is this possible?
To Get The EditorForModel / Want To Use A SelectList Instead Of A TextBox For Status?
Jul 1, 2010I have written an Enum extension method that allows me to create a view model and allows me to easily bind a generic Enum to a SelctList like:this.ProductStatusList = new ProductStatusTypes().BindToSelectList<ProductStatusTypes>
(product.Status.ToString());
In my View I can then have:
<% using (Html.BeginForm()) {%>
<fieldset> [code]...
Notice I am using EditorForModel and then a seperate DropDownList. My question is: Is there a way to get the EditorForModel to be clever enough to pick up that I want to use a SelectList instead of a TextBox for status?

Feb 13, 2011I'm trying to display a dropdown on my view page that has a custom text value.

<%= Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.ContactId, new SelectList(Model.Contacts, "ContactID", "LastName"), "- Select a Contact -") %>

Does Model Binding With A Selectlist Work?
Jan 5, 2011I'm having problems retrieving the values of a selectlist in my form collection. I've tried making a viewmodel with an attribute with the same name as the select list.
I'm honestly just realizing I REALLY don't understand how model binding works with selectlists. I've just been assuming that the following conventions apply:
Name the select list the same thing as the attribute on the model you want it to bind to. Apart from that, I really don't get it. I've looked at several books on it and they're useless frankly. How does a select list work with a) form collection and b) a particular model?
MVC :: Set DataValueField Of SelectList When Binding To A List?
Jan 14, 2010What do I use to set the dataValueField of the Select List when I'm using a list of strings. I want to be able to set the value of the option in the select. If i have:
List<string> list = new List<string>();
list.Add("apple");
list.Add("orange");
and I want my html to be:
<select>
<option value="apple">apple</option>
<option value="orange">orange</option>
</select>
Storing SelectList ID Using MVC EditFor Templates & Annotations (.net 4, Mvc3)
Mar 23, 2011I can currently populate and display a Drop Down using the following model annotations, viewmodel, and custom Editor template - but am having problems persisting the submission (more on that below):
//Domain
Public class Person
{
public string FirstName {get;set;}
public string LastName {get;set;}
public string ClassName {get;set;}
public int ClassId {get;set;}
...
}
//ViewModel
Public class PersonViewModel
{
public Person Person {get;set;}
Like I mentioned, the above works fine - as in the drop down is displayed properly, but obviously in its current state it's not saving the classID (or name) to the Person entity, I understand the problem but not sure how to fix it.
My questions:
How can I save the selected value from the drop down to the Person entity
How can I save both the ID and the Name into the Person entity - I'm guessing only way is a hidden field that gets populated with an onchange event (this sounds weird, I'm sure, but it's being stored in a document DB, so it's not normalized - I may just store Name in the end)
C# - Convert List<Roomtype> To SelectList For ASP, MVC DropDownFor<>, And Get The Correct Values Per Option Item?
Jun 1, 2010I have my class RoomType:
Int32 Id
String Name
String ColorCode
My viewmodel gets a List<Roomtype> RoomTypes which should be displayed in a dropdown.
Each dropdown option item should have: 1) as title the Name, 2) as value the Id, and 3) the style background-color #ColorCode.
My problems are how to convert this list correctly into a List<SelectListItem> as required by ASP.NET MVC's DropDownFor helper, and then to have the correct values inserted for each option.
I've tried to have a new readonly property in my viewmodel, which has a getter RoomtypeSelectList which returns new SelectList(RoomTypeList) but I can't get the correct properties to show (Name, Id, Background color).
C# - Why DataClassesDataContext Has No Default Constructor
May 25, 2010I have a connection string defined in my web.config like:
<connectionStrings>
<add name="LibraryConnectionString" connectionString="Server=.SQLEXPRESS3;Database=Library;Integrated Security=true" />
Well...lI do not understand why when i drag-and-drop tables into a new DataClasses dbml it does not construct a default constructor specifying the connection string. I only have constructor with params like:
public DataClassesDataContext(string connection) :
base(connection, mappingSource)
{
OnCreated();
}
I do need a default constructor for LinqDataSource..

C# - Why Need A Private Constructor
Apr 6, 2010if a class has a private constructor then it cant be instantiated. so, if i dont want my class to be instantiated and still use it, then i can make it static. what is the use of a private constructor? Also its used in singleton class, except that, is there any othe use ? (Note : The reason i am excuding the singleton case above is because I dont understand why do we need a singleton at all ? when there is a static class availble.

Microsoft Unity. Specify A Certain Parameter In Constructor?
Oct 30, 2010I'm using Microsoft Unity. I have an interface ICustomerService and its implementation CustomerService. I can register them for the Unity container using the following code:
container.RegisterType<ICustomerService, CustomerService>(new TransientLifetimeManager());
If CustomerService has a certain parameter in its constructor (e.g. ISomeService1), I use the following code (I need to specify SomeService1):
container.RegisterType<ICustomerService, CustomerService>(new TransientLifetimeManager(), new InjectionConstructor(new SomeService1()));
No problems here. The problem appears when CustomerService class has two parameters (not one param as in the previous example) in its constructor (e.g. ISomeService1 and ISomeService2). It works fine when I'm using the following code: container.RegisterType(new TransientLifetimeManager(), new InjectionConstructor(new SomeService1(), new SomeService2()));The problem is that I do not want specify SomeService2() for the second parameter. I want to specify only first parameter - SomeService1(). But I get the error that I need to specify none or both of parameters. How can I specify only first parameter of constructor?
