C# - Binding To A List <string> Using DataBinder.Eval?

Sep 3, 2010

I have the following object:

CrossTabDataObject
{
string RowName{get;set;};
int RowId{get;set;}
List<string> CellContents = new List <string>();
//Constructor..... etc.
}

I'm building a dynamic crosstab grid using GridView in asp.net 3.5

I wish to bind to CellContents[0] for dynamic column 1, CellContents[1] for dynamic column 2 (dynamic column 0 is the RowName field from the CrossTabDataObject) etc. I am using:

object boundValueObj = null;
Control ctrl = (Control)sender;
IDataItemContainer dataItemContainer = (IDataItemContainer)ctrl.NamingContainer;
boundValueObj = DataBinder.Eval(dataItemContainer.DataItem, strSelectedID);

This code is in the InstantiateIn function of the gridview as I'm creating drop down list templates in each cell of the crosstab.

I have code (not shown) that sets strSelectedID depending on the column being created.

When strSelectedID is equal to "RowName" for dynamic column [0] the DataBinder.Eval function works fine and sets boundValueObj as expected. The problem comes when strSelectedID is set to "CellContents[n]" where n is the Column Index.

DataBinder.Eval only works with properties and fields of objects. How do I get around this?

DropDownList Data Binding To List <String> Not Working?

Oct 22, 2010

I'm trying to bind a List<String> to a DropDownList in a user control. I think I'm doing the right thing, but it seems that after my code executes the bindings are cleared. Here's the code for review!

User control:
<asp:DropDownList ID="subjectNameDropDown" runat="server"/>
<asp:DropDownList ID="yearLevelDropDown" runat="server"/>
Auto-generated designed code-behind:
public partial class NewSiteMetadataUserControl {
protected global::System.Web.UI.WebControls.DropDownList subjectNameDropDown;
protected global::System.Web.UI.WebControls.DropDownList yearLevelDropDown;
}
Code-behind:
public partial class NewSiteMetadataUserControl : UserControl
{
protected override void CreateChildControls()
{
subjectNameDropDown = new DropDownList();
yearLevelDropDown = new DropDownList();
}
protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
{
base.OnLoad(e);
EnsureChildControls();
// Attempt 1
List<String> subjectNames = GetSubjectValues();
foreach (var subjectName in subjectNames)
subjectNameDropDown.Items.Add(subjectName);
subjectNameDropDown.DataBind();
// Attempt 2
List<String> yearLevels = GetYearLevelValues();
yearLevelDropDown.DataSource = yearLevels;
yearLevelDropDown.DataBind();
}
}

Should this approach work? If it should, how can I debug what happens after the code executes?

Forms Data Controls :: URL Binding Using Eval In A Datalist/ How To Remove The Current Page URL

Jul 23, 2010

I am using Eval inside a datalist to populate a hyperlink within the datalist with a navigateURL value and I am using it as follows:

<asp:HyperLink ID="HyperLink_FullStory" runat="server" Text="Full Story" NavigateUrl='<%#Eval("LinkAddress")%>'></asp:HyperLink>

The issue I am facing is that the current page URL is getting appended to the 'LinkAddress'(the URL being fetched from the database) and thus,the final URL formed is not a valid one.Can someone suggest how do I remove the current page URL? Is there any way it can be done without writing code in the code behind page?

Javascript - Display A Truncated String Using Eval

Jul 29, 2010

I have a ASP gridview control. I have a ASP label control in the item template column. I bind data to the grid using -

<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lblDesc" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Description") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>

But, the value of this string can be upto 80 characters. But, I cannot afford to have the column length to be so high. And, there are limitations so I cannot use Wrap="true" and limit the column width. So, I figured the solution could be to display only about 50 characters in the grid and display the entire string as a tool tip. I managed to do this by using this -

<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lblDesc" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Description").ToString().Substring(0,50) %>' ToolTip='<%# Eval("Description") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>

This displays the first 50 characters of the string in the grid column. And, the complete string is displayed as a tool tip when the mouse pointer hovers over the text. But, the problem arises when the string length is less than 50 characters. In this case, an exception is thrown. I tried modifying this piece of code to allow conditional display by checking for the string length. But, I could not get this to work. Is there a way to fix this problem? Can we call a javascript function within Eval() ?

C# - Binding A List Inside Of A List To A GridView

Dec 1, 2010

I have a class with all different kinds of data members, including a list of strings. When I bind the data to a GridView, I want to be able to separate out the list of strings into different columns in the GridView. These strings are more like flags, there is a max of 3 flags. The list could be empty, if no flags apply, or it could contain only one or two flags. How can I separate out these flags into different GridView columns? Do I need to do it in the OnRowDataBound event?

Current, my aspx code looks something like this. I want to be able to change the ImageUrl of the Image controls based on if the flag is raised or not.
