Selecting Most Recent News Article In A Collection With Linq To Sql?

Aug 18, 2010

I have a bunch of news articles and I want to select the most recent one using Linq to Sql. I have an MVC action method like so

[ChildActionOnly]
public ActionResult LatestNews()
{
var article = mhndb.NewsArticles.Single();
return PartialView("LatestNews", article);
}

I would like to know the syntax for selecting the most recent item in the NewsArticles collection using Linq.

DropDownList For A Collection Not Selecting Value?

Mar 28, 2011

i'm using a strongly typed view with a custom viewmodel. this viewmodel contains a collection of books.

public IList<Books> Books { get; private set; }

i'm also passing a select-list to the view. however the DropDownListFor helper class doesn't automatically preselect the default value of the book.

@Html.DropDownListFor(m => Model.Books[i].AuthorID, Model.Author as SelectList)

everything else works, e.g. it does pass the selected value back to the controller.

i figured out a workaround by creating the select list in the viewmodel:

@Html.DropDownListFor(m => Model.Books[i].AuthorID, new SelectList(Model.AuthorList, "Value", "Text", @Model.Books[i].AuthorID.ToString()))

however i don't want to implement this workaround if there is a simpler solution. is there a way that the view can handle values from a collection?

ADO.NET :: Constructing A Linq Query Using A Collection?

Mar 13, 2011

I'm constructing a query using linq, but I'm having trouble using a collection, i.e. where field in database = anything in the collection.

Below is an example of what I mean:

dim keywords as string ="test,test2,test3,cats,dogs,frogs"
Dim getKeywords = (From cp In myDataContext.pages
Where cp.pageKeywords = currentPageKeywords.Split(",")

The aim of the above code is to return all records where the "pageKeywords" field contains 1st keyword, or 2nd keyword, or 3rd keyword etc.

ADO.NET :: Table Collection Missing In LINQ Query / DataContext?

Aug 13, 2010

I'm new to LINQ and have a problem with my query not showing me the Table Collection. I manually created my Cart class and specified the table attributes on each property (works fine for inserting records via LINQ see below). DataContext dc = new DataContext(Conn);

var q = (from c in dc.NOTABLES?? where ((c.UserID == userID)) orderby c.CreateDateTime Based on examples I would expect to see dc.Cart But I don't, so I tried to access it via dc.GetTable<Cart>() which at least gets me data but doesn't seem to convert the rows to my Cart object since this:
foreach (var cart in q) Log.Info("UserID: " + cart.UserID + " CartID: " + cart.ID.ToString());
blows up with a "Specified Cast is Not Valid" exception.

No Problem Inserting Also, I had no problem inserting data into the database:

DataContext dc = new DataContext(Conn);
Table<Cart> Carts = dc.GetTable<Cart>();
Cart aCart = new Cart();
aCart.UserID = userId;
aCart.Description = description;
aCart.CreateDateTime = System.DateTime.Now;
aCart.UpdateDateTime = System.DateTime.Now;
Carts.InsertOnSubmit(aCart);
Carts.Context.SubmitChanges();

DataSource Controls :: LINQ Load Collection To Populate Dropdownlist?

Apr 5, 2010

I have a partial class extending my Entity Model. I'd like to write a method that returns a collection of types from my entity framework model. For example, I'd like to get all the states to populate a drop down list. So I've written a method called getallstates(), similar to the example below:

[Code]....

I tried returning a list of Objects, and a list of states to my calling method to be used to bind to a drop down list. However I get an error that:

Server Error in Application. Unable to cast object of type 'System.Data.Objects.ObjectQuery to type 'System.Collections.Generic.List`1[System.Object]'.

What should my return type be for this function?

Forms Data Controls :: Selecting Radio Buttons In A Gridview With Dataset From Linq Query?

Oct 13, 2010

I've got a gridview that will allow clients to edit options they've already entered on another page. The gridview has three radio buttons in it each with a value of 1,2,3. The option value in the dataset is 1,2 or 3 respectively. I would like to have the radiobutton with the corresponding value selected in the gridview so they can see what they previously chose and will then be able to edit, if they wish.

Here's my code so far:

Forms Data Controls :: Bind A Collection Within A Collection To A Gridview?

Jul 26, 2010

I have a list of objects that I want to bind to a gridview. Creating that list and binding it works fine for most of the public properties in that list.

There are some objects contained in each of those objects... for instance there is an Address object.

object.Address.Line1;

object.Address.Line2;

When I bind this to my gridview, I have no issues with stuff like object.DateRegistered, but how can I access things like object.Address.WhatEverProperty? I always get this error:

"A field or property with the name 'xxx.xxxx' was not found on the selected data source."

C# - How To Set The Prioritise The Most Recent Requests To An .Net Handler

Oct 20, 2010

've got a slightly odd requirement that I'm not sure how to properly articulate.I essentially want to prioritise the most recent requests to an ASP.Net handler. I'm not sure if this should be client-side or server-side. I'm leaning towards server side to ensure it's enforced on all clients.So, as requests come in, they're essentially stacked according to some internally-defined time interval, per client. Then, the top of the stack (most recent) request is processed first.

Add Controls To A Collection And Update From Collection?

Mar 25, 2011

I have an ASP.NET app with lots of textboxes all over the page that need updating at various points through program execution.

These textboxes actually belong to a certain class, so for easy updating I thought I could create a Dictionary(Of string, object) and add the control.ID and the control to it and then for updating do something like this:

(in case of updating textbox.text):

[code]....

However the text property of the textbox does not actually get updated. I'm mainly trying to avoid having to manually do textbox.text = somestring for each one of my textboxes every time I have to update them.

C# - NHibernate Select Most Recent Record That Meets Criteria?

Last night I started working on an NHibernate provider. I'm creating a criteria that several records will match, however I only want to return the most recent record (the record with the largest Id). I thought UniqueResult() would do this it cannot be used if a list would be returned otherwise.

I could theoretically select the full list and then return the desired record, but I believe there is a better way.

Forms Data Controls :: Get Recent Opened Records To The Datagrid?

Feb 28, 2011

I have a table which have different records in it, When user click on each record I save the primary key of the record to another table (recent viewed) with short date and time. It checks first if that record is already there so it just update the data and time but if record is not yet there then it will add it.

I want that the recent viewed table only store 15 records in it. Not more then 15 and most oldest added record should be overwrite. Is that possible in MS SQL server 2008?
