Simple CTP Samples - Win and Web

Before the forums changed, I had posted a sample web application that used the Admin Entity templates with the Northwind database.  There have been a couple of posts from people asking to get the download again, so I have updated the sample to use the latest CTP templates.  I have also included a very simple windows client.  It has a single form with binding source, binding navigator and datagridview controls.  The code uses the Customers table in Northwind.  It allows you to edit, add and delete records.  This is very simple code and is not meant to demonstrate best practices.  There is no error handling, data validation, etc.  It shows a quick and dirty way to get things wired up and going.

You rock sir. There needs to be [:nod:] smiley.

Quick point, in case some people have not added Entlib to GAC.

In the projects, DataAccessLayer and DataAccessLayer.SqlClient your references to Enterprise Library will have to be re- added and referenced from the {root}\References folder.

Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Common
Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Data
Microsoft.Practices.ObjectBuilder

I hope this helps.

Thanks, Ben! This is great to have any samples of using .NetTiers with Win and Web.

Object reference not set for Web application and Could not find stored procedure 'gen2_Customers_Get_List' for Win app. :-/

This is due to the stored procs not being created in your database.  You have two options.  First, you can regenerate the NetTiers projects yourself which will create the necessary procs.  I included the CodeSmith settings file (NorthwindSettings.xml) that I used to create the projects.  Second, you can run the NetTiers\SQL\procedures.sql file manually.

Hi Ben! Awesome sample! Post it to documentation please.

Because of Filter table this is difficult to customize control.
Do you have any suggestions or how do you do it yourself?
Looks like the easiest way to do it in html editor.

this post is listed in the documentation.

Cool. After I set theme for page everything is fine now :) Btw: Nice theme!

Thanks Ben, great inspiration for further ideas!!!

Calendar client script does not work in Opera and shows 'false'?

Hi, Ben!

I have a suggestion to use MultiView control instead of Table for switching between GridView(with Filter) and FormView.
This will allow to customise gridview in designer and also controls will show its content on page.
Let me know do you think.

Thanks!

Would be great to have public properties to be able to use filter from page code on which control is present.

I've looke throw code and see that most of properties are private.
At least Filter property can be public?

Alex,

Yes, I was aware of the problem with editing in the designer.  If the Multview resolves this issues, then great!   If you have this working, have you modified the templates?  If so, post them here and I can integrate them into the repository.

As for the filter property (or any other), I don't see why they couldn't be public.  Again, post any changes you make and I will get them intergated.

If type of table foreign key is guid - no dropdown control is shown for this field, only label?
