Accessing Controls From Separate Classes
Jun 23, 2010
I have an ASP.NET Web Site I am creating in Visual Web Developer 2008 Express using Visual Basic as the language. It is actually a rewrite-with-mods of an existing ASP script and I'm trying to chew what I've bitten off. I created my page with a text box (txtOutput) on it and since the end product is very complex, and it's generally good practice to separate like functions, I have created 4 separate classes in the App_Code section.
My main page is Sync.aspx and has a code file Sync.aspx.vb with it.
One of my code files is SyncDatabases.vb and in it I have created
Public Class SyncDB
In that class I have created some routines such as
Public Function ReadMSDB(ByVal SQLString as string) as Boolean
In this routine I want to put information in my text box txtOutput on the main form (the default - Form1).
My problem is that if I try:
Form1.txtOutput.Text = "Hello world"
or just
txtOutput.Text = "Hello world"
it says Name 'Form1' (or 'txtOutput') is not declared. I am sure I am missing something simple but have no clue what it is. I assume it's the fact that the write command is in a file (class?) outside the file (class?) containing the page itself but I don't know how to address it properly.

I'm wondering how I can go about accessing page controls from a separate class I've made. I've tried a few things I found using google, but no luck :(
What I'm trying to do is keep a function that is used often, in a global class.
The function then accesses a page literal and calls ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript. I was hoping this is possible, so then this function wouldn't have to be copied to all of the pages.

I have an application which contains different modules from different databases, for instance, I have a table called "ITEMS" in each database. When I create the classes for the table ITEMS I wonder how I can differentiate among them.
For instance, for now, I have "ItemDetails.cs" under App_Code folder BUT I need to create another "ItemDetails.cs" class which will reference the table ITEMS from a different database. If I create folder under the App_code the class name still remains the same.
I could add an acronym in front the class to differentiate which database I am working from but that makes the class name too long.

I just want to know if anyone stores their helper classes or methods in a separate assembly and why...just for clean management of them? I've seen so many posts about using a helper folder inside your MVC project and that brings me back to the messy old days in ASP.NET where people were using an App_code folder instead of cleanly separating things out physically like this into its own project. And likewise nobody doing real architecture is going to put models in some folder in your MVC web assembly. They would go in MyApp.DataLayer assembly or MyApp.Models or something like this.

In ASP.NET I have a form that has a Textbox named txtOutput and a button. In the main file.aspx.vb I can call a function from the button handler and in that function I can have
txtOutput.Text = "Some Message"
with no problem. I have a bunch of functions in several other classes. For instance I have a class named AbleCommerce that does some database functions. These functions are called from my main class. In those functions, however, I have no visibility of txtOutput. All of my classes are, unfortunately, in the default namespace which I understand is not optimal but didn't seem to impact this issue.
I know this is an easy one I've just not understood properly but it has me stumped. My gut says that I probably need to pass the Textbox object to my "other class" but can't for the life of me figure how.

Normally i have a static class that reads and writes to HttpContext.Current.Cache
However since adding threading to my project, the threads all get null reference exceptions when trying to retrieve this object.
Is there any other way i can access it, workarounds or another cache i can use?

I have a single master page in my application. It has a Label control for displaying Error Messages. I want to be able to access this Label control from any child page or Class module within the application. How do I reference this label from a Class module. I simply wish to use a Try Catch construct in the Class Module and reference the MP Label in the Catch segment.

I have access to two seperate databases (mySQL) located on two servers. I need to get the data, link the tables on a key field and display the results in a datagrid. My challenge is that if the search criteria changes for the display it affects rows returned from on table and should thus automatically affect the linked table and resulting data returned.
what the best approach would be to achieving this? So far I have set up a dataset with a dataadapter and table for each connection and then linked the tables in the dataset. The problem that I'm having is getting the linked resultsets to work.
On my form I have the datagrid with two Objectdatasources one for each dataadapter and i believe that's where I'm going wrong...

I am new to LINQ. when we drag tables we get a dbml file and designer file.
For example DataClasses1.dbml and DataClasses1.designer.cs.
Once we have them then we can start using our LINQ Queries.
In my company project I do not see this designer files and instead there are .tt files which were used as templates to greate ABC.generated.cs files. Is this same as designer class?

I am following the Nerd Dinner tutorial as I'm learning ASP.NET MVC, and I am currently on Step 3: Building the Model. One part of this section discusses how to integrate validation and business rule logic with the model classes. All this makes perfect sense. However, in the case of this source code, the author only validates one class: Dinner.
What I am wondering is, say I have multiple classes that need validation (Dinner, Guest, etc). It doesn't seem smart to me to repeatedly write these two methods in the partial class:
[code]....
This doesn't "feel" right, but I wanted to check with SO to get opinions of individuals smarter than me on this. I also tested it out, and it seems that the partial keyword on the OnValidate method is causing problems (understandably so). This doesn't seem possible to fix (but I could very well be wrong).

I don't know if this has to do with how FindControl works or how scope works. But my base class is having a hard time seeing the fields of child classes. Currently I'm planning have the derived class set a property in the base class, but there are a lot of derived classes, so that isn't a very attractive solution.

I'm curious as to what people consider better practice, between duplicating model structure in the view model and using a mapping tool to move data between the two, or aggregate the model inside the view model, i.e. have a property on the view model class that is a reference to the actual model. Which is considered a better approach in general?

We have a ASP.NET 3.5 application where we want each user to have their own database. Everyone uses the same web application, but the database their data is kept separate from all others. So every customer has his own database. All database structures are identical, so the only thing the application has to do is connect to the right one when the user logs in.
I envision that we look up a connectionstring to their data at the time they log in and set it globally for that session. With Linq, the connection is handled automatically though, in the background, based on the setting in the web.config file. Unlike SQL Server where you set it each time you use it, with Linq it is hidden in the .NET generated class files. So how do we make this vary by user, while using the same application for everyone?

I was wondering if you should write code so that external classes and functions of that external class can access the webform controls in the main class???
Or should you only use the external class to process some data, return that data back to the main class (that instantiated that external class object) and then have an internal function in the main class to deliver the data to the control? (back to the screen)

Is there anyway I can extend LINQ classes through different namespaces?Typically in my class libraries I have a namespace for each class object and their associated DAO and service classes in a folder of my project, therefore on the front-end I can only use the namespaces associated with the given page and not clutter my intellisense or load in a bunch of excess stuff.
However, I have found that upon adding my .dbml LINQtoSQL file, whatever namespace that is in, whether it's the project root namespace or a custom one, is the only namespace I can use partial class extension in.I have tried even creating a custom workspace (placing the .dbml file in a folder) and then including a using statement to that namespace and I still cannot extend the partial classes.Is there anyway I can do this? Or to have the .dbml file count as being in every namespace? I don't want to remove all namespaces but the root one either.such when I try doing the partial class from a different namespace I get the following error:
Error 1
'Id' is not a member of 'LCFVB.EntityNS.Entity'.

Does anyone know if it is possible to create a gridview from a class on a seperate webpage?
So I have webpage 1, that calls Class 1, in Class one there will be a Select Query that will call some info from a database and then return it to a gridview. The gridview wont work obviously as it is in the class and not on webpage 1.
Is there anyway to reference the fact I would like the gridview created on webpage1?
