ObjectDataSource update using callback instead of postback

G

Guest

It would be udeful to be able to get the current on-screen values from a
FormView that is databound to an ObjectDataSource by using a callback instead
of a postback. For example:

public void RaiseCallbackEvent(string eventArgs)
{
// update the data object with the values currently on screen
FormView1.UpdateItem(true);
}

In an ordinary postback, such as a button click handler, calling UpdateItem
would force a call to the following business class update method, and the obj
parameter would contain the values currently on screen:

public static void Update(MyBusinessClass obj)
{
// validate, store, etc. here
}

However, if I call UpdateItem in RaiseCallbackEvent, then the obj parameter
in the business class update method will not have been updated with the
values the user has just typed in the form.

Hi Jim,

As for ASP.NET script callback, its request (call back to serversdie...) is
different from our normal post back request. For performance consideration,
some of the normal processing in the server request have been bypassed in
scrpit call back. Such as the Control Tree constructing and populating and
some normal postback data processing and events other than the script call
back. So we don't recommend that our serverside script call back function
will have any code logic which rely on the page's control model. Is you'd
like to do data updating, it is recommended, that we use Sqlconnection and
SqlComand and executing the command separately and return the executing
result to clientside whicn will be better.

Thanks,

Is it possible to update the viewstate on the server from the client for just
the one formview control - ideally without doing a postback? Is it possible
to update the entire viewstate on the server from the client without doing a
postback?

Please elaborate on "executing the command separately". Note that the goal
is to get updated data FROM the form rather than sending updated data TO the
form.

Thanks,

Jim

Hi Jim,

Thanks for your respones. As for ViewState, I'm afraid this is not
updatable from external code. Actually, the script call back event at
serverside just provide an interface for us to make a post back to client
without refreshing the client browser view. However the serverside
processing pipeline has bypass those page/control related constructing ,
viewstate mapping, event mapping. steps. So we can not access those
features in script call back.

And for the below you mentioned:

form.

Yes, what I means is update date through code and then use the result to
modify the FormView's clientside view. I'm afraid we 're not able to
access the FormView or any other controls in script callback (like what we
do in normal postback).

Thanks,
