Hi Guys,
Am currently working as Junior .Net Developer,
However, Am requested by my manager to develop a web page called staff deployment plan that will involve two GridViews, that is the Parent GridView and Child GridView. The Parent GridView will display two columns which are EmployeeNames and WorkingDays - the working days column is a heading of Child GridView and the child gridview displays columns as current working days for example: the month of November 2014 has 20 working days excluding weekends and public holidays in South Africa, so the columns for child gridview are like this: 3 Nov, 4 Nov, 6 Nov...etc The problem that am experiencing now: Is to add LinkButton for each column on the Child GridView and to create command event for each linkbutton inside a child gridview (remember this child gridview is inside a parent gridview) and the link button when is click it should display a popup window. Any help in terms of how to accomplish this will be highly appreciated Kindest Regards Lucky Khoza

I need some help with the fundamentals.
I have a VB.Net Desktop app that I am converting to a Web App. I do not understand how the variable are stored/saved, etc.
Can something walk me through this?
The structure is the following:
1. Visual Studio 2013
2. Startup main page is a C# module. This does screen / view handling and OAuth authentication.
3. It references a class that is written in VB.2013 (this has the main business logic). Call this vbMain.
4. The VB.2013 class invokes another VB.2013 class (call it vbServHandler. This 2nd VB class handles all the real interface to the web services (REST) that was authenticated in the C# module.
It seem that the variable in the 1st VB Class (vbMain) are not preserved across requests but those in the 2nd VB class are.
I just do not understand this.
Can somesome please give me some?

The best I can do here is this, perhaps someone else can explain it better, but looks like there are no takers on this post.
A windows app, is really different. Within a windows app, you have access to so many resources, and can make global buffers, that can be used from form or dialog to form or dialog.
A web page, is a 1 time deal. you create the web page, and when done, or the page is unloaded, everything dies with it. When you create another page, you start all over again, and the process repeats. There are ways to store information from page to page, or transfer information from page to page, but that's provided by the web server or through the use of hyperlink query strings.
[Sort of an Anwser]
Some of the code is reusable, the rest just supports the windows controls and objects.
You really need to start from scratch, and design a web based system with the UI first. Now write the navigation part, 1 page to the other, make it look pretty, then start plugging in your logic from the other program, 1 piece at a time until it works correctly.
Sounds to me like you have very little experience at building a web application, and mid level experience at building a windows application. It's important to understand the different between the 2 before you try to port the windows app to a web app.
There's no magic or easy way to do it.

Thanks
I understand that there is no magic and no converter and that each page is new and any variables should be as initialized when built or saved in either viewState, SessionState, ApplicationState a cookie or other external source.
This does not explain why variables in the 2nd VB class (vbServHandler) has new data in it while the 1st (vbMain) does not. What would cause this?
|

It sounds like vbServHandler is using Shared fields.
You should generally avoid Shared fields in ASP.NET applications unless you really know what you're doing. For example, the data in the fields will be shared across all requests from all users, which means you could easily end up showing data meant for user A to user B by mistake.

They are NOT shared. I think it may be when a button control is hit on the page that the vbServHander is not getting re-initialized (vbServHandler variables still have data). I have done this:
1. By just click in the upload button on the vbMain button multiple times.
2. Clicking on the C# menu button (Upload) to reload the page.
3. Going back to the main page and clicking on the Upload button to reload the upload page.
4. Even refreshing the main home page via F5.
In all cases the constructor for vbMain (i.e. sub new) shows data in the vbServHandler variables.
I am programming around this (I actually think it is better) but just do not understand it.

If the variables are persisted between requests to your site, and they're not stored in application or session state, then either they're stored in Shared fields, or the instance of the containing class is stored in a Shared field somewhere.

They are not saved anywhere.
If they are in some shared object then I do not know where it could be.
Here is the definition of the object I was checking in the Sub new of vbMain.
Public AccountCollection As Collection
in what I was calling vbServHandler. Real name is QBAPIV3Cl which is part of DLL QBAPIV3VS2013.
This is invoked via by vbMain
Imports QBOAPIV3VS2013
.
.
Public aQB As New QBOAPIV3VS2013.QBAPIV3Cl()
which is defined in a module within vbMain.
.
.
Which is referenced by the C# Web App
using vbMainDLL;
In the C# program it is defined as
vbMainDLL.vbMain vbMain;
vbMain = new vbMain(TheRealmID,TheAccessToken,TheAccessTokenSecret,
TheConsumerKey,TheConsumerSecret,
TheContext,TheDataService,
pOutReason: ref pOutReason);
The Sub New for vbMain has aQB.accountcollection.count
Referenced object has a value of nothing the first time.
then 121 every other time. I would expect a value of nothing each time.
The c# program has no references to the aQB class/QBOAPIV3VS2013.QBAPIV3Cl.
So what am I missing?

A Module is effectively a class in which every member is Shared. If your fields are stored in a Module, they they're Shared by definition.

Here is the class
Public Class QBAPIV3Cl
... No Module
Public AccountCollection As Collection
AccountCollection is the variable that I am checking for persistence.
It is references by the vbMain module as
Module Common which is a separate vb source file.
Module Common
..
Public aCL As New vbMain.QBAPIV3Cl()
So what you are saying since MODULE common is a MODULE everything in it is Shared/Static including all of aCL????

Yes, that's correct.
A module has the same lifetime as your program. Because its members are all Shared, they also have lifetimes equal to that of the program.
...
All members of a module are implicitly Shared.

So for a web app it last forever???
Is there a way of making a module non-Shared so I do not have to re-organize the program? Or what is the best way to have the module non-Shared?
|
|
|
|

Yes, in a web application it will last until the AppPool recycles.
There's no way to make a module non-shared. However, you might be able to get away with changing the field to a property, and adding code to retrieve the value from the current session if the code is running in an ASP.NET application. Something like this should work:
Imports System.Web
Imports System.Web.Hosting
Module Common
Private Const SessionKey As String = "Common::aCL"
Private aCLNonWeb As vbMain.QBAPIV3Cl
Public ReadOnly Property aCL() As vbMain.QBAPIV3Cl
Get
If Not HostingEnvironment.IsHosted Then
If aCLNonWeb Is Nothing Then
Set aCLNonWeb = New vbMain.QBAPIV3Cl()
End If
Return aCLNonWeb
End If
Dim context As HttpContext = HttpContext.Current
If context Is Nothing Then
Throw New InvalidOperationException("No current request.")
End If
Dim value As vbMain.QBAPIV3Cl = DirectCast(context.Session(SessionKey), vbMain.QBAPIV3Cl)
If value Is Nothing Then
value = New vbMain.QBAPIV3Cl()
context.Session.Add(SessionKey, value)
End If
Return value
End Get
End Property
End Module

Can someone, please, please come to my rescue again?
I have been struggling with this code since last night.
On the markup page, we have 4 very important dropdownlists.
One dropdownlist has a controlId called tripType.
This dropdownlist has seven values. If a user selects any of the first five values, the dropdownlist with control id of from_city_and_state is visible. The other two dropdownlists, HourlyCharter and LongDistance are hidden.
If user selects Hourly from the tripType dropdownlist, from_city_and_state and LongDistance are hidden and the HourlyCharter dropdownlist is visible.
If Long_Distance dropdownlist is selected, Hourly and from_city_and_state are hidden.
By default, from_city_and_state dropdownlist is visible on page load.
So far, everything to this point works.
The issue is on codebehind.
If a user selects any of the first five values of the tripType dropdownlist as stated earlier, on codebehind, we would like to show one query.
If user selects Hourly value from tripType, we would like to show a different query.
Finally, if user selects Long_Distance, we would like to show yet another query.
So far, I am stuck on the hourly query.
If user selects any of the first 5 values of tripType dropdownlist, the query works flawlessly.
Other than that nothing else works.
Can someone please, please see what I am doing wrong?
Sorry for long explanation.

Using jQuery for this is pretty simple. For what you're trying to do, you may want to refer to the following:
http://api.jquery.com/after/[^]
Basically, you're inserting new nodes into the DOM dynamically.

Hi thanks buddy Anurag, I saw some of your articles also very interesting and useful. As I am very new to this ASP.Net MVC, I am the following question.
How can I use this .js file in my ASP.Net Application, can I just add it in my applications folder and reference it similar to ASP.Net Webforms?
Thanks & Regards,

Yes, you can use it the same way and it will work.
However, from performance and code optimization point of view, you may wish to look into bundling and minification.
Life is a computer program and everyone is the programmer of his own life.

I have several ASP.NET web pages that use a Master page. All of them have an AJAX update panel on the content page. I found this as the only workable solution to maintain scroll position because none of the standard code worked. And, all the pages behaved properly with this addition. I made some updates to a few content pages. One page is built with C# code. All others are VB. I made the same change to pages using the different code. All the VB code pages still maintain scroll position on post back. But the C# code page does not. I even rolled back to undo the change that I made, and it still rolls back to the top of the page on post back. Nothing seems to work. Am I missing something fundamental? I am using VS2010 with .net 3.5. I appreciate suggestions for a fix. Or commiseration.
