ListView Databinding to an object list – Part 1

3/29/2008 3:04:02 PM UTC

The past 2 weeks I spend my time trying to fix a bug that ended up in re-writing the entire feature from scratch. But this allowed me to learn and experiment with some new things such as binding data to a DataList. It’s something I haven’t touched before, so it was to say the least interesting. I decide to write this up as an article but when I started to write the demo application, I figured out that it would be nice to bind it to the new asp.net 3.5 ListView control. I also used a few new things that I started to touch for retrieving the demo data: Linq (to Xml).

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you had to write a stored procedure that needed to combine data from 2 different databases? Not that difficult, is it? But what if your procedure needs to be ‘generic’ so that it can run on different environments such as developing, testing and production where they all use different database names? I found myself in this situation today and I’d like to share my experiences here.

Sick and learning

The past month I spend most of the time sick in bed. But luckily I found a way to "make use of my time" by having a stack of books next to my bed and start catching up with some technologies that I wanted to catch up with for over a year, but never had the time for. Now I had, although not in the best circumstances.
