Get selected row in Gridview (dxexprince 10 aspx.net)? - devexpress

Im new on Dxpreince 10.(and don't think im expert on this)
I wrote simple webpage. For setting values in grid view i use list and bind that to Aspxgridview.Datasouce. so how access to the selected row ?(plz help with sample code)
I want to get this value in my self defined method not in Selection-changed method! and access to all part of this record no one part of that
should use client-side event

Have you tried the FocusedRowIndex property?
Documentation:
FocusedRowIndex

Use the
ASPxGridView.GetRow(ASPxGridView.FocusedRowIndex)
method for this purpose.

Use custom value on symfony2 choice form type using choice_list

I'm trying to use custom values in a choice form type which gets its data from a database query that needs post-processing. For this reason I opted to use the choice_list option and extending Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\ChoiceList\ChoiceList\ChoiceList. The problem is that I need custom index/value for the resulting dropdown instead of the default 0-indexed style. 0-index doesn't work form me as I will access the values using Javascript and need the data I retrieved from the database.
I already tried replacing the createIndex() method in the ChoiceList class but to no avail :-(
Any tips?
I can't believe it...I have tried the whole day and couldn't find the answer. 5 Minutes after having published the question, I solved it.
For future research:
You need to overwrite the createValue() method in the Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\ChoiceList\ChoiceList class.

Flex: DataGrid and the Command Pattern

I am using a command pattern, so any changes to object state need to happen within a command execution. A normal itemeditor in a DataGrid would just make its changes on the underlying bound object, but I need to intercept that change and make it use a command.
I'm pretty new to flex, so I'm looking for ideas of how to implement this. A basic example is that I have an object with a "date" field. In the datagrid I am using a flex "DateField" component as the itemeditor. When I select a new date, I don't want it to update the datasource, I want it to call a different method where I can access the newly selected value and pass it to a command to execute. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Use the itemEditBegin and/or itemEditEnd events on the DataGrid and build your command in the handler. This page has a few examples of capturing the edit operation with those events.
In my opinion, you're over-engineering this to hell, to the point that it becomes unusable. Why would you need a command to just change data on the fly? I've been doing Flex for 3 years and I yet to see it done this way. The only time commands are used is for receiving information from the server.
Either way, if you really want to implement it (against my recommendation), you would probably want to do event bubbling with a controller listening higher up the display list for the event, then from there trigger a command. From within the item renderer:
this.dispatchEvent(new Event('someEvent', true));
And then higher up the display list:
dataGrid.addEventListener('someEvent', someEventHandler);
And within the handler you can run the command.

How to configure Update Method for object data source in ASP.Net

I have a gridview with all columns read only except one. I want to configure the update method for the object data source to update only one column. The code i have written works when i make all columns editable but fails when i try to make only one column editable. Can someone tell me what i should do?
Try to figure out what arguments the Object datasource is trying to give to your method when updating. It might not pass the uneditable ones, and this could be the cause of the failure.

list box control in asp.net

Hello friends I have a list box control in my asp.net project.
I want to know how to get selected index to set currently updated item in database.
Please help me with this. Do i need to perform some data base operation to find the key for currently updated data and then i'll have to set it or there exist some property to deal with this? thanks in adavance
One thing to watch out for, which I have come accross more than once is that if you call your CompanyListBox() method in your Page_Load method, you will lose the selected index unless it is only called on the first page load. To make sure of this, place your call to CompanyListBox() within the following block:
if(!Page.IsPostBack)
{
CompanyListBox();
}
You can access the selected index in your postback by using the following code:
var id = (Int32)listCompany.SelectedItem.Value
Then it is up to you to use that in your data access to update the record in the database. Looks to me that you are using some kind of framework or manager class for your database access. The companyManager should have methods for saving your updated item to the database. Good luck.

ASP.Net: Is it possible to skip databinding of an element if an error occurs?

I use a lot of repeaters for different elements of our sites, and I've always wondered if there was a way to have the repeater skip an element if an exception occurs instead of having the whole page crash?
In particular, I've inherited a system from another developer that using a similar design, however he didn't include any kind of validation for his business objects, and it a single property is missing, the whole thing goes up in smoke.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
The simplest suggestion I can offer is the check the validity of the data before it's passed to the repeater. I don't believe there's any way to get the stock repeater to skip a data element on error.
The other approach is to build your own repeater, inheriting from the base Repeater, to add that functionality but I've no sample code to offer. Perhaps someone else may be able to help there.
The way I see it, you have at least three options.
You could create a custom repeater control that inherits System.Web.UI.WebControls.Repeater and override the databinding behaviour to be more try-catchy (probably fail silently on databinding errors). You couldd then easily replace all instances of the standard Repeater with this new one.
You could filter your datasources before databinding to remove items you know are going to cause problems beforehand. This option may be quite laborious and something of an iterative process.
You could try adding default values to the business objects, so that the properties you're binding to return a default instance rather than null (not nice either).
That's my thoughts anyway.
One question - you say "when a property is missing". Do you mean he's using a style of databinding syntax that offers no compile-time checking and is referencing properties that don't exist, or is referecing properties that are null?
Edit
OK, so you're referencing properties that are null. If you have access to the code for the business objects you could modify them so they return a new, non-null instance (this is the third option I gave).
You don't say if you're using .net 3.5, but I'll assume you are. You could add a new property "IsValidForDataBinding" on to each of your business objects. In the getter logic you could check each of the necessary properties and sub-objects to check for validity, non-nullness etc and return a bool. When you come to bind your repeater, write a simple linq statement that filters-out the invalid items (i.e. where IsValidForDataBinding = false). Having said that, I still think that writing a derived repeater control could be your easiest option.
Have you tried using string.isnullorempty("the string") to check for a value before referencing the property?
