I have just gotten a very odd error and I can't explain, or trace it out. My forum entity maintains a list of child forums. The list is internal, and exposed as an ienumerable, along with some methods like AddChild, FindChild and RemoveChild. Now to the code:
[Code]....
I have stepped through this several times, testing values along the way. It works perfectly, so I cannot explain the error. If a parent forum id is given, forumRepository.Update(parent) runs with no errors, it just doesn't actually save the new child to the db.
Incidentally... until I restart VS2010, the nhibernate session actually THINKS it HAS worked, and the new record shows on the page.
What is the best way to design the Domain objects which can have multi-lingual fields. An example can be a Product class with Description being multi-lingual.
I have found few links but could not decide which one is the best way.

Can be a problem if we query from Sql) http://ayende.com/Blog/archive/2006/12/26/LocalizingNHibernateContextualParameters.aspx (This one has a warning at the beginning that it is a hack and no longer supported) http://www.webdevbros.net/2009/06/24/create-a-multi-languaged-domain-model-with-nhibernate-and-c/ (This does not describe how multilingual data will be structured in the database.)
Anyone having experience with using NHibernate with multi-lingual data.
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.
firstly a static class only ever exists once and is not an instance. Any static members (ie static int NoOfPeople;) is stored in one place and is shared between all sessions (like the old global variables). Now static methods is where i'm not 100% sure. If I have a static method that doesn't use any other static members could this cause inconstant results, example (this is a fairly pointless method but just a quick example of the top of my head)
[Code]....
So in this example if two sessions (or threads) were to call this at the same time - would they both get back the expected results, because the method only uses private data (a, b and totalToReturn).Im sure this sounds a little simple but I will be using static methods to build user objects and various other objects that there will have to be a 100% garentee that the objects will not get mixed up between sessions and the wrong things return to the user.
I'm working on a project in which we have a database, data layer (entity framework), business layer and web/UI layer.I want to use ASP.NET Dynamic Data for the web layer, but don't want it to access the data layer or database, as I want it to be purely running off business logic, and not directly accessing the data.However, it appears that Dynamic Data only allows Linq-to-SQL or entity framework data sources to be used.Has anyone used it with business-layer objects instead?
Lets say I am doing a shoping cart. I authenticate the user with a session variable.For example:
If(Request.IsAuthenticated) // Here I want to add to the shoping cart. // Can I do the following Session["Cart"] = "Washing Machine"; Now will this Session["Cart"] value which is washing machine here be unique to diff customers?
I'm building a web application that has a particular model representing some events. Users need to be able to add N number of people to a given event. Choosing people is handled by a partial view.
I'm trying to build a menu that displays when users click "add a person" to the event. Because the event hasn't been filled out completely yet, there is nothing in the database to persist between requests.
I also have validation logic on the event page.
My proposed solution is to add the form to search or add for people on the event form itself and have a submit button that sends the values that have been added back to the server, where I can store them in ViewData or Session.
Unfortunately, doing this flags the validation.
My second solution is to load a partial view responsible for loading the UI to add/search for a person. I could add a little code on the method in the controller that returns a partial view storing the existing data in a session variable or viewdata. Trouble is, I have to submit the form to do it--again tripping the validation!!!
I'm wondering if perhaps I chose the wrong tool to do this...because in webforms, there would probably be a postback and you would just perform an operation on that postback. I'd like to avoid rewriting the application in webforms and am wondering if there are ways I'm overlooking in ASP.NET MVC.
Alright, so here's my basic ASP.NET page setup: I've got a page with a GridView that has ContentTemplates in it. You can add a row and edit/remove rows at any time. There's a "New" button that creates a new row.
All of this data is bound to custom data objects. So if I have a GridView of "People" and each row has "FirstName", "LastName", and "Gender" (with TextBox and DropDown controls), I then have a "Person" object which has public properties for "FirstName", "LastName", etc. I have the binding set up correctly, and I can push data into the GridView from the object, and I persist the object with the Session variable. My page lifetime structure looks something like this:
Page_Load: Loads the List(Of Person) from Session()
Any events fire, and modify the List(Of Person).After any event, the List(Of Person) gets saved back into Session(), and is then DataBound to the GridView (and any subsequent fields are also DataBound, such as the DropDownList.
My question is: Whenever I fill in rows in the GridView, and then add a new row (there is no database saving going on whatsoever), my fields clear out and don't persist across PostBacks. So, how can I persist my custom data objects with databinding across postbacks?
In this instance I can't load the datagrid in page_init as the results of the datagrid are determined by a checkbox and the checkbox would always be set to true during page_init to the viewstate not being loaded.
I have an OnItemDataBound event on the datagrid that dynamically creates controls and later on I want to access the value of some of these controls (e.g. a text box)
Of course the problem is I can't access these controls values as they don't persist over a postback.
I am new to ASP.NET MVC and I am using ASP.NET MVC 2. I am trying to implement the following feature and I need your expertise on this:
Authentication is Windows Authentication. Every user has at least one country associated to his/her account that he needs to manage.When a user navigates to the site we have to look up his/her associated country and persist it somehow (session?).With every call to the backend we need to pass the country as a filter. When a user has more than one country associated to his/her account, we need to display a dropdownlist on the site and the user should be able to change the "current" country at any time. I have a couple of questions:
Where exactly in the lifecycle in the ASP.NET MVC framework should I retrieve the country or countries for the currently logged on user and where should this be persisted? In ASP.NET I would solve this by creating an intercepting filter using a HttpModule to set the Countries in the session state. What is a good way to implement this in ASP.NET MVC 2? (strongly typed session state wrapper?, magic strings?)Should I put a dropdownlist for the selection of the countries in my masterpage? How can I make sure that the current country remains selected in this dropdown?How can I make sure that with every call to the backend the country is passed, should I use an action filter?
I've got a master page with a section for subnavigation links on it:
<div id="sub_nav" runat="server"></div>
I programatically populate this with Hyperlinks when my main asp:Menu data is bound depending on the address of the page I'm on.
This works fine and all my correct submenu stuff shows up on each page. The problem is that when one of these pages does a postback, I lose all the links that were in my sub_nav div.
Now, I could just populate the div with links every time regardless of whether the master page load is a postback or not, but I figured there is a better way of doing this. I was thinking enabling the viewstate on the div and links inside it might persist them through postbacks, but apparently that is not how viewstate works.
I am retrieving results from a SQL database based on a user file upload, and I am saving the returned results in a datatable. It can be up to 15,000 rows. I need to use this datatable in other requests in this same page - i.e. saving the data back to another table, exporting to a file....How can I store the datatable to access again? I read up on viewstate, session , and cache, but they all seem to have an affect on performance and memory.
Suppose I have created a spgridview with the following code.

To persist the checkbox states between pagebacks ,currently i am using session states.It has some draw backs.Now how can I persist the checked states,when the user manually checks all the checkboxes,how can i make a check on the header checkbox?
I am persisting the search selection criteria of a listbox onto another page which is called AreasLb. Multiple areas can be selected, I simply want to set the listbox items that the user selected as .Selected = true
I think the below code should work, but it doesn't, with no items in the Listbox being selected.
if (s == "Areas") { string[] area = nv[s].Substring(0, (nv[s].Length - 1)).Split(';'); int i = 0; foreach (ListItem item in AreasLb.Items) { foreach (var s1 in area) { if (s1 == item.Value) { AreasLb.Items[i].Selected = true; } continue; } i = i + 1; } continue; }
I have an ASP.NET page that contains two div's. Both have search fields and a search button contained within each of them. When I first come to this page, Div A has the class 'SearchDiv' while Div B has 'SearchDivDisabled'. These classes change the appearance so the user knows which search type they currently have enabled.
When Div B is clicked, JavaScript changes it's class to 'SearchDiv', and changes Div A to 'SearchDivDisabled'. This all works like a charm. The problem I have is when a user changes to Div B, clicks Div B's search button (which obviously redirects to a results page), and then uses the browser's back button. When they return to the search page, Div A is enabled again, and Div B is Disabled, even though they last used Div B. In the search button event handler I set the class attribute of the Divs before I redirect, hoping this will update the page on the server so when the user returns, their last-enabled Div will still be enabled (regardless of which one was enabled when the page was first visited).I believe this involves the ViewState, but I'm unsure why the class attribute is not saved so when the user returns to the page it is restored.
RedirectToResults() is called from the actual button event handler with the enum representing the selected search panel and the results page url. SearchContainers is a dictionary mapping an integer to the search Div. The important code is the last line, where I'm updating the selected search container with the 'active' search class, rather than the disabled one (which I assign to the other div(s) )
Additional Update: I have been battling with this issue for the last couple days. I was sort of able to get the following code to work (in page_load):
But this really isn't a solution, as everything else that gets cached correctly is lost, which leaves me worse off than when I started. Everything else seems to persist fine, it is just the class of the div that is causing me struggles.
Edit: Just wanted to update this for anyone else that comes across this. While I believe there is a solution here with setting the cacheability of the page to force the browser to postback, I could not get it working 100% with all browsers (primarily Firefox was giving me fits, which is a documented bug). I do believe the cookie solution would work, but I felt that may be a bit more complex than necessary for just trying to store the state of a couple div's.
What I ended up doing was tying the div's class to the state of it's correlating radio button (there are radio buttons next to the div which allow the users a more visual way of enabling search panels). I noticed these radio buttons retained the correct checked value when the back button was used, so I could guarantee they would indicate the correct div to be enabled. So in JavaScript's onload I check which radio button is enabled, and then adjust the classes of the search div's accordingly. This is a pretty big hack, but has worked 100% across all browsers, and only took about 10 lines of JavaScript.

This code works fine when selecting multiple days in one month. But when you switch to display a different month, the previous months selections are lost. how to persist the selections when the visible month changes.
I am building a chat control, which is a div with a background image, textarea, text box and some image. The CSS for this div on the Master Page is:
[Code]....
When a user navigates to the page where they can start a chat session by clicking on an icon, I use jQuery to change the CSS, like so:
[Code]....
The CSS for showing the chat is the same as the above CSS, only .chatWindowShow does not have the display:none property.
The problem is that once I navigate to another page, the div is hidden again, the CSS does not persist accross postbacks for some reason. What I want is that once the chat window is shown, no matter what other pages the users go to it will continue to show, until they click the close icon in the chat window.
So, how can I persist this CSS page accross all pages? I thought that removing the CSS class and adding the new one via jQuery actually modificate the inline HTML, but I guess not. Do I need to use some other jQuery to accomplish this?
Here is the HTML markup for my chat window:
[Code]....
And the jQuery which toggles the view when you click on the chatRight div:
I wish to persist a class object across postbacks by using a single session variable/object/whatever.
The class has about a dozen single variable properties; and about a dozen table properties; and several methods. The main table tracks rows of sporting event results. The web site will collect one row at a time for each postback. The data in the object's constructor is based on a dataset, but the data in the class will grow each time I do a postback so I don't want to loose the information in the class. The data isn't very big - it will fill a single computer screen.
Being new to programming I am thinking that I can store the dataset in the session but that would slow down the response time because I the methods would have to be called to refine the data - or maybe I can just store the entire class object in a session.
I have an action where I get the list from the database and pass it to the view. Now, I want that when I fire another action I can somehow get hold of that list (List). How can I do that since ViewData and the TempData is erased on each request.
At present i am able to persist that using session InProc mode. except that i cant use either stateserver or sql server as the HTTPPostedFile is not serilizable. i can't use viewstate either for the same reason. Is there any work around to persist that httppostedfile across postbacks for session modes other than inProc or viewstate?
Maybe it's been a long day but I'm having trouble persisting a collection backed by the ASP.NET ViewState in a CompositeControl. Here's a simplified version:
public class MyControl : CompositeControl { public Collection<MyObject> MyObjectCollection { get { return (Collection<MyObject>)ViewState["coll"] == null ? new Collection<MyObject>() : (Collection<MyObject>)ViewState["coll"]; } set { ViewState["coll"] = value; } } } public partial class TestPage : System.Web.UI.Page { protected void btn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { myControl1.MyObjectCollection.Add(new MyObject()); } }
When the button is clicked, the event hander btn_Click executes fine, but the setter for MyObjectCollection never gets called, hence the new MyObject() never gets persisted.
I have this problem - I'm working on an ASP.NET AJAX-application on a server without .net 3.5 which means I can't use ListView (BOO!).
I decided to simply do the ugly way of making a table and giving the tbody an ID and a runat server tag, and put HtmlControls inside from the codebehind (btw - this is a usercontrol, in case it makes a difference).
This all works fine - until the page does a partial postback - and all the elements disappear, since the tag is runat server I assume it requires to be repopulated in the page load.
Is there no way to actually persist the data on partial postback? And only have the content of the control change when I say so in the back end?
I guess I could save the content in a session object upon populating the control, and just repopulate in the Page_Load with the session object - but I was hoping there was a better way to do this?
