Set The DataTextField To A Property Of A Navigation Property?
Jan 30, 2011
i get a list of objects from the Entity Framework data context.
var list = context.EntityA;
the EntityA is the main object (contains the primary key), but has a navigation property called "EntityALanguages", which contains language specific properties.
now i want to bind the list to a dropdownlist and need so set DataValueField and DataTextField properties from the dropdownlist.
how can i set the DataTextField to a property of a navigation property, something like:
this.ddl.DataValueField = "GUID";
this.ddl.DataTextField = "EntityALanguages.ShortDescription";

I have a State class defined like this:
Public Class State
Public Property StateId As Integer
Public Property Name As Dictionary(Of Integer, String)
End Class
Name(x) contains the state name in different languages. I get a collection of State from the method StateManager.GetAllStates() and I want to bind this collection to a DropDownList. The problem is that I can't find how to set the DataTextField property to let's say stateList.Name(1) which is the english name of my state.
Dim stateList As StateCollection = StateManager.GetAllStates()
Me.DataSource = stateList
Me.DataValueField = "StateId"
Me.DataTextField = "Name(1).Value" <-- Problem here
Me.DataBind()

I have a list <Department> say Company.Departments with object Manager and ManagerId, ManagerName as property of Manager. I would like to fill the dropdownlist with managers as below
ddlManager.DataSource = Company.Departments;
ddlManager.DataTextField = "ManagerName";
ddlManager.DataValueField = "ManagerId";
Is there a way to specify the property of an object in DataTextField or I need to copy a Manager list for the DataSource?

I would rather not magic string my DataTextField/Values on the dropdownlist after setting up the source as a List collection of objects.
I was thinking I could use the DataSource properties but it doesn't seem to like the couple of ways I tried.
WORKS BUT NOT IDEAL
//set the datasource to the returned List<Cart>
this.cartDdl.DataSource = CartManager.Load(WebProfile.Current.UserName);
//set the DataValueField to the Cart.ID property
this.cartDdl.DataValueField = "ID";//would rather use the obj property Cart.ID
//set the DataTextField to the Cart.Description property
this.cartDdl.DataTextField = "Description";//would rather use the obj property Cart.Description
//Bind the ddl to the datasource
this.cartDdl.DataBind();
HOW I WOULD THINK IT COULD WORK this.cartDdl.DataValueField = ((Cart)this.cartDdl.DataSourceObject).ID; this.cartDdl.DataTextField = ((Cart)this.cartDdl.DataSourceObject).Description;

I have two Entity classes: Order and OrderItem. Order contains a navigation property OrderItemSet of type
System.Data.Objects.DataClasses.EntityCollection<OrderItem>
On an aspx page is a FormView bound to this EntityDataSource:
[code]....
When I run the application I get an exception pointing to the line DataSource='<%# Eval("OrderItemSet")%>' in markup and telling me:
DataBinding: System.Web.UI.WebControls.EntityDataSourceWrapper does not contain a property with name 'OrderItemSet'
What is wrong here?

I'm using EntityDataSource to retrieve my items, and i want to get the items for a particular region. (items and regions has a many to many relationship, thus item has a regions navigation property). and I'm using "IN" to filter the items. tried several combinations and it kept on throwing various errors. how can i get this sorted out:

I have a class (SearchClass) in which i have Origin property which is a "Address" datatype. I want to use the "Search" class in my Search.aspx. I want to bind the City field data to a CheckBoxList, but i could not do so? If it is a straight property of Search class i could do so, but if it is a property then i could not. "I am getting error "City" is not a valid DataTextField of something like that. The point is it is not recongnised. I even tried to inherit the Address class from Search.cs class, but i just see blank data. Now i am trying to a different thing. i.e. Inherit the Address in Search.cs class and while pouplating the Search Results in to a List object i am also planning to set the data of City too, along with populating the whole Address objects and try to use it in my binding. Is there any other way to do this (i mean more efficiently)?

I have an asp.net repeater control with a series of asp:hyperlink's
<asp:HyperLink runat="server" ID="name" NavigationUrl="~/Pages/display.aspx?fileid={0}&user={1}" />
and then on the OnItemDataBound method:
fullname.NavigationUrl=string.Format(name.NavigationUrl, user.fileid, user.userid);
So that gives me a series of URLs in the repeater:
[URL]
OK, so with a simple proxy tool someone can replace either of the parameters with some OTHER number to get access to what they shouldn't see.
server-side validation and authentication aside, is there a better method other than passing parameters when trying to create a dynamic URL within a repeater?

I have a question, much liket this unanswered one. I'm trying to work with the entity framework, and having a tough time getting my foreign tables to update. I have something basically like this in the DB:
Incident (table):
-ID
-other fields
Responses (table):
-FK:Incident.ID
-other fields
And and entities that match:
Incident (entity)
-ID
-Other fields
-Responses (EntityCollection of Responses via navigation property)
Each Incident can have 0 or more responses.
In my Webpage, I have a form to allow the user to enter all the details of an Incident, including a list of responses. I can add everything to the database when a new Incident is created, however I'm having difficulty with editing the Incident.
When the page loads for edit, I populate the form and then store the responses in the viewstate. When the user changes the list of responses (adds one, deletes one or edits one). I store this back into the viewstate. Then when the user clicks the save button, I'd like to save the changes to the Incident and the Responses back to the DB. I cannot figure out how to get the responses from the detached viewstate into the Incident object so that they can be updated together.
Currently when the user clicks save, I'm getting the Incident to edit from the db, making changes to the Incident's fields and then saving it back to the DB. However I can't figure out how to have the detached list of responses from the viewstate attach to the Incident. I have tried the following without success:
Clearning the Incident.Responses collection and adding the ones from the viewstate back in:
Incident.Responses.Clear()
for each objResponse in Viewstate("Responses")
Incident.Responses.add(objResponse)
next
Creating an EntityCollection from my list and then assiging that to the Incident.Responses
Incident.Responses = EntityCollectionFromViewstateList
Iterating through the responses in Incident.Response and assigning the corresponding object from viewstate:
for each ObjResponse in Incident.Responses
objResponse = objCorrespondingModifedResonseFromViewState
Next
These all fail, I'd like to be able to merge the changes into the Inicdent object so that when the BLL calls SaveChanges on the changes to both the Incident and Responses will happen at the same time.

In an MVC view, I'm looking for a way to determine if a parent entity's collection of child entities is empty, so I can decide if I need to call a RenderPartial() or not.
For a one-to-one I've been using the following:
<% if (Model.Book.GenreReference.EntityKey != null) %>
{.....}
but I'm unsure how to do it in a one-to-many scenario, or if it can even be done without the use of Include() or Load().

So what I'm trying to accomplish is this
[Code]....
The user control has public properties named accordingly and the page has protected properties accordingly which I've verified have the desired values.
For some reason the values are always empty strings or 0s in the usercontrol, no matter what the page property is.

Can anyone add a complete input about how to create Parent Property with multiple child properties or in short nested properties.
Example: Style tag: which has properties like font, color, display... etc? which accept objects and its value.
[code]....
As soon as Rainbow property is typed, user should get intellisense for list of number of colors. Then accordingly user can select list of those colors and assign a value to them.

Is there any difference between accessing a property that has a backing field
private int _id;
public int Id
{
get { return _id; }
set { _id = value; }
}
versus an auto-property?
public int Id { get; set; }
The reason I'm asking is that when letting ReSharper convert a property into an auto property it seems to scan my entire solution, or at least all aspx-files.
I can't see any reason why there should be any difference between the two from outside the class. Is there?

In the Web.Config we have a timeout property. Ex:
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="~/Login.aspx" timeout="2880"/>
</authentication>
When loggin in, we can specify a ticket expiry date. Ex:
FormsAuthenticationTicket ticket = new FormsAuthenticationTicket(
1, id.ToString(), DateTime.Now, expiryDate, true,
securityToken, FormsAuthentication.FormsCookiePath);
Why there's two places where I can set expiration info about forms-authentication? What's the difference between them? What has more relevance?

I'm using Entity Framework. The following code throws a runtime error "System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object." The line before the error, it looks like newControl is in fact instantiated.
My model has a Control entity and a ControlType entity. Control includes the Navigation Property "ControlType." I'm trying to set ControlType.Type = 2.

<a title="Pick Date from Calendar" onclick="calendarPicker('<% txtstart.ClientId %>');" href="javascript:void(0);">
