Question

I have a LOG table like this.

Process_Type (Could be Update, View),
Username, Date

In my page I have only one Gridview.

I want to log user’s information (username, date, process_type) in LOG table.

1.View

Should I use Page_Load() function? (Because Gridview binding on the load of page) I think I should update my table like this;

UPDATE LOG
SET PROCESS_TYPE = 'VIEW', USERNAME =  Request.ServerVariables["AUTH_USER"],
DATE = DateTime.Now

2.UPDATE

Should I use Gridview1_OnRowUpdating() function ? I think I should update my table like this;

UPDATE LOG
SET PROCESS_TYPE = 'UPDATE', USERNAME =  Request.ServerVariables["AUTH_USER"],
DATE = DateTime.Now

Is this a good plan for logging my simple page?

Or, How can I do that more easily?

Answer 1

To log the View, you should use DataBound and for update use RowUpdated

protected void GridView1_DataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    // is Called when data is binded to gridview
}
protected void GridView1_RowUpdated(object sender, GridViewUpdatedEventArgs e)
{
    // is called when Row is Updated
}
