and my ItemCommand event:
protected void lvECOItems_ItemCommand(object sender, ListViewCommandEventArgs e)
{
Label ecoItemIDLabel = (Label)e.Item.FindControl("IDLabel");
string id = ecoItemIDLabel.Text;
// get the list item id from the ListView
if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(this.ecoID) && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(id))
{
if (e.CommandName == "Delete")
{
ECOItemsRepository ecoItemsRepository = new ECOItemsRepository();
ECOItems ecoItems = new ECOItems();
ecoItems.ECOID = this.ecoID;
ecoItems.ID = Int32.Parse(id);
ecoItemsRepository.Delete(ecoItems);
}
else if (e.CommandName == "Update")
{
ECOItemsRepository ecoItemsRepository = new ECOItemsRepository();
ECOItems ecoItems = new ECOItems();
Label IDLabel = (Label)e.Item.FindControl("IDLabel");
TextBox txtDocumentNumber = (TextBox)e.Item.FindControl("txtDocumentNumber");
TextBox txttitle = (TextBox)e.Item.FindControl("txttitle");
TextBox txtRevisionFrom = (TextBox)e.Item.FindControl("txtRevisionFrom");
TextBox txtTo = (TextBox)e.Item.FindControl("txtTo");
ecoItems.ECOID = this.ecoID;
ecoItems.ID = Int32.Parse(IDLabel.Text);
ecoItems.DocumentNumber = txtDocumentNumber.Text;
ecoItems.title = txttitle.Text;
ecoItems.RevisionFrom = txtRevisionFrom.Text;
ecoItems.To = txtTo.Text;
ecoItemsRepository.Edit(ecoItems);
}
BindListView();
}
}
and I am even trying the ItemUpdating event:
protected void lvECOItems_ItemUpdating(object sender, ListViewUpdateEventArgs e)
{
ECOItemsRepository ecoItemsRepository = new ECOItemsRepository();
ECOItems ecoItems = new ECOItems();
Label IDLabel = (Label)lvECOItems.EditItem.FindControl("IDLabel");
TextBox txtDocumentNumber = (TextBox)lvECOItems.EditItem.FindControl("txtDocumentNumber");
TextBox txttitle = (TextBox)lvECOItems.EditItem.FindControl("txttitle");
TextBox txtRevisionFrom = (TextBox)lvECOItems.EditItem.FindControl("txtRevisionFrom");
TextBox txtTo = (TextBox)lvECOItems.EditItem.FindControl("txtTo");
ecoItems.ECOID = this.ecoID;
ecoItems.ID = Int32.Parse(IDLabel.Text);
ecoItems.DocumentNumber = txtDocumentNumber.Text;
ecoItems.title = txttitle.Text;
ecoItems.RevisionFrom = txtRevisionFrom.Text;
ecoItems.To = txtTo.Text;
ecoItemsRepository.Edit(ecoItems);
this.lvECOItems.EditIndex = -1;
BindListView();
And finally, my binding method:
protected void BindListView()
{
if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(this.ecoID))
{
ECOItemsRepository ecoItemsRepository = new ECOItemsRepository();
this.lvECOItems.DataSource = ecoItemsRepository.GetECOItems(ecoID);
this.lvECOItems.DataBind();
this.lvECOItems.Enabled = true;
}
else
{
this.lvECOItems.Enabled = false;
}
}
When I click the edit link, the ListView goes into edit mode like it should.
When I click the update button in the EditItemTemplate it doesn’t trigger the ItemCommand event. The delete and cancel both work.
The ItemUpdating event does not fire at all.
One note: This ListView is in a user control within a sharepoint webpart, so the user control is dynamically created. I have a sneaking suspicion it has to do with binding the grid on a postback. But if I don’t, the listview does not populate except on the intial load of the page.
I decided to take a different approach because I could not get the update to work. Instead, I just use the Select command and the SelectedIndexChanging event to populate the control-set that I am currently using for inserts. The link button in the ItemTemplate is labeled “Edit” but uses CommandName=”Select”. Not a perfect solution but it works.
