I'm trying to figure out if its possible to have multiple inheritance in a view in ASP.Net MVC. Right now I'm trying to print out a list of entries from two different tables from my model in a single View. I have the following line at the top of my view:
I went ahead and created a composite class as follows:
namespace GEApproval.Models
{
public class Listings: GEApproval.Models.CoursePrefix, GEApproval.Models.ICourse
{
public List<CoursePrefix> CoursePrefixObjList { get; set; }
public List<Course> CourseObjList { get; set; }
private GEApprovalDataModel _db;
//Constructor
public Listings()
{
_db = new GEApprovalDataModel();
}
//Generate a list of all courses associated with the prefix and place in ViewData model
public void listCourses(ViewDataDictionary viewData, int prefixID)
{
var test = _db.CoursePrefix.Include("Course").First(cp => cp.id == 1);
//Show total courses for this prefix
viewData.Model = test.Course.ToList();
viewData["prefix"] = test.Prefix;
viewData["courseCount"] = test.Course.Count;
int courseCount = test.Course.Count();//Test
}
}
}
I'm still a little confused because I still cannot access the properties of the Course object when listing them in my view, because I'm only inheriting directly from CoursePrefix. I'm not sure what I'm missing. Do I need to have a constructor for the composite object? Do I need the inherit and implementation statements for CoursePrefix and ICourse respectively if I'm already, supposedly, exposing the properties of each within the Listings wrapper class?
I have a view which takes two objects: booking and list of reasons for canceling that booking.I have two classes: clsBooking, clsBookingCancelationReason I can read both objects in my view - no problems there. After I read the objects, I display the booking details and I generate a list of cancelation reasons in the following way:
[Code]....
The code above generates a list of cancelation reasons.How do I pick up the selected ReasonId from the list? I need to generate a link that will contain the bookingId and the selected reason for canceling the booking.I can get the bookingId out easily since it's stored in the Model...but how do I go about the selected ReasonId?
one thing that has been puzzling me since learning MVC2 is the following case scenario: I have a view which contains two latest news lists, a login form and a signup form. Every example I found on Views and View Models so far has a one-to-one example such as a simple login form etc. But how do I create a model that provides the properties and validation for a login and signup form and manages the data for the news lists. can I pass multiple models in the strongly typed view? When I created one model the form validation would fail as it expects all fields - login and signup to be filled. I am missing some advanced examples or information.
I have an application that needs to render a page that will have multiple Radio Button Groups as well as multiple CheckBoxes. The desired layout is determined by a database table.
This table defines a "Package". The "Package" can contain many different "Items" that require different controls used in the View. The "RadioGroupName" field is used to mark which RadioButtons should be grouped together. The "ViewControl" field marks which control should be used on the View to display the field. The query in my repository will return a result set such as
Given this result set, I need to render the view as follows:
A RadioButton group with 3 options (Item1, Item2, Item3) A CheckBox (Item4) A CheckBox (Item5) A RadioButton group with 3 options (Item6, Item7, Item8)
I have read that it is possible to use "if" conditions and looping structures inside the View. I have also read that this is a bad practice. Another issue I see is knowing which Item has been selected from each RadioButton group when I hit the Controller POST function. Previously I have built a page that has a single RadioButton group. My ViewModel was as follows:
I would like to create one view for my CRUD actions. The view contains 3 basic DIV updatetargets ("search form", "search result listing" and "action" (would be create,detail,edit,delete). Basic flow would be: "Search" updates the "Search Result Listing", click on CRUD actions in listing would show partial view in "action".
how do I call to refresh the "Listing" after I do any add/update/delete without having user click search again?
what is best to use in CTP 5 for inheritence. Ive heard of 3 ways of doing it. (This is indirectly addressed to Serenarules )
Table per Hierarchy ? Table per Type ? or able per Concrete Type ?
For those who wondering what the hell is that.. refer to http://weblogs.asp.net/manavi/default.aspx which is a nice blog about inheritence and polymorphism in CTP 5.
All my controllers inherit from a BaseController that has an ActionFilter attribute:
[AnalyticsData] public class BaseController : Controller {} public class AccountController : BaseController {} Some of my Actions in my controllers reuse the AnalyticsData ActionFilter: public class AccountController : BaseController { [AnalyticsData(Page="AccountProfile")] public ActionResult Profile() { // return View } }
I notice that the AnalyticsData ActionFilter only runs once. This is a good thing and I only want it to run once, but I'm wondering how that happens. If I set my breakpoint inside the OnActionExecuting:
public class AnalyticsAttribute : ActionFilterAttribute { public override void OnActionExecuting(ActionExecutingContext filterContext) { // break point set here } }
only gets hit once when AccountController serves it Profile view. How do ActionFilters and/or Attributes work that [AnalyticsData(Page="AccountProfile")] on the Action overrides/replaces [AnalyticsData] on BaseController?
I work in a web agency and thus we are plenty of websites from several customers. They're built upon a cms we made, so websites are quite identical for the 90% of code. However, remaining 10% struggles me and my team as it involves not only the presentation layer but behavioral logics too (ex: a website1 requires simply user/pass registration while website2 needs more data, facebook connector, etc. But this is a very easy example). Making ad hoc development for our customers is becoming painful as keep each version aligned is getting really hard for us What I really dream to have is an extendible website that works by itself, but in which I can override a part. This behavior should sound like "look for the specific part, if it doesn't exists get the base one". The parts could be a method, a class, a page, a control, a static file.
example: Suppose I want website2 to have an own login component, let's so imagine that we have a situation like:
The first entity has a list of MyExtendedEntity. Is there any way I can bind this with the entity framework. I'm targetting ASP.NET and WPF. The main probnlem I have is that I need an ObservableCollection in WPF, while the EF generated class only has an EntityCollection which doesn't even seem to derive from ObservableCollection.
I think I know the answer to this but hoping someone has a neat solution. We are currently using two kinds of drop down controls (telerik and .net). I'm hoping to combine these into one control but struggling with a user friendly design.
Ideally the control would be created in the design file with a bool property of say "SimpleBox", to determine which kind of control to inherit. The instantiation would then be generated in the code behind design file and the constructor would then dynamically load the base (which isn't possible). The easy solution would be for me to create a IDropDown interface then have a factory create the correct one. The only real problem with this is the fact the instantiation has to be manually written every time. Which is a hassle, and does not speed up our process at all.
Although it isn't directly possible i'm looking for a solution along the lines of a factory which is ran inside the object constructor for setting the base, based on a bool property.
I have a solution with quite a few different MasterPages / BasePages which all inherit from somewhere else. My problem is that I have a virtual string in BaseMaster, which is overridden by BaseManagement, but when I try to access this string I always get the base valueThe point of inheriting masters and pages is obviously to avoid having duplicate code everywhere.
I am currently trialing EF4 code-first. My POCO classes inherit from an Audit class that contains CreatedBy, CreatedOn, UpdatedBy, UpdatedOn. I was hoping the framework would include the Audit properties in my Action table when creating my database, however this doesn't appear to be the case. Does anyone know how to enable this without overriding the OnModelCreating() method?
Public Class Audit Public Property CreatedOn as DateTime End Class Public Class Action inherits Audit Public Property ActionId As Int32 End Class
I have created a Entity named MediaItem which is Abstract and Game inherits form it. I create the database automatically and I get a table MediaItems and MediaItems_Game.
The issue is when I do the following in my ASP.Net Controller:
private Models.DBContainer dataModel = new DBContainer();
dataModel. ---> Intellisense shows me MediaItem but I can find no way to either navigate to or use MediaItems_Game, how can I solve this? i.e. How can I grab a list of 'Games' with some 'WHERE' constraints on another table (not pictured).
I have ASP.NET Page - PageBase and some pages that inherits this page:
public class PageBase : System.Web.Page public class SomePage : PageBase
I would like to have some controls placed in PageBase that every page that inherits from this page (like SomePage example) will have it displayed as well. This works perfectly in WinForms. If I place control (in designer mode) to WinForm A, I will get it displayed in form B - that inherits from A. This is perfect for building complex solution and I need to extend my WinForm solution to web.How will I do it in ASP.NET?
I have a problem with Master Page InherItance. I make master page Item and past Index in the source of Master page Item and Design of Master Page is Ok but in Web page , in Source , I whrit ,
I'm using VS2008, and I've got 10 ASP.NET 3.5 sites which all have a virtual directory which maps to one ASP.NET 3.5 subsite.
I'm trying to get a WCF service to work with client-side ajax on the subsite. I've modified my web.config file on the subsite to use baseAddressPrefixFilters, but I can't get this to work with every site. For example, I can add an entry for one site, but the ajax calls will only work for that one site. All the other sites will fail.
I'm trying to add a IsImage property that I wrote myself to the HttpPostedFile class, so that if a user is uploading a file, I can do something like this:FileUpload1.PostedFile.IsImageHow can I do that in C#?
I have a base page called let's say Login.aspx with Login.aspx.cs code behind.Now...I would like to derive page from that page for several specyfic customers. Basically nothing changes in layout (aspx file), the only think is difference in handling Page_Load event. However when I access my derived login page LoginClientName.aspx no output is rendered - my aspx file contains only:
I have a table which houses two entities. StaticProgram and DynamicProgram. There is one column in that table called ProgramType which determines if a program is of Type static or Dynamic. Though these two entities are stored in one table (I am guessing because the primitive fields for Static and Dynamic programs are exactly the same) but from a business point of view these are two VERY different entities.
So, I created two Classes StaticProgram and DynamicProgram. However, I donot want to create two seperate Data Access Classes because it is going to be the exact same code replicated twice. I tried creating a "Program" class as base class and inherited StaticProgram and DynamicProgram classes but down casting is not supported so I can't return a "Program" object from the data access class and cast it to "StaticProgram" class.So, what are my options? Can I create an IProgram interface and have StaticProgram and DynamicProgram implement that interface and have my Data Access class return IProgram?
How do I display more than one model per view? The above line limits me to only display UserProfiles. I want to also display other models, like UserJob and etc....how would I go about doing so?
