Better documentation for the new rad rotator

[Charles Faramarzirad]

Hi ;
i am currently using the newest version of  RadRotator for rad controls for asp.net ajax.  I'm trying to create a webpart that reads from a list in sharepoint 2007.  upon looking at some online documentation on how to do this, all i can find is http://blogs.telerik.com/ToddAnglin/Posts/07-08-27/How_to_Create_RadRotator_Programmatically.aspx  which unfortunately deals with the older version of radrotator.  In particular there is a line  in that document:

void img_DataBinding(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

Image img = sender as Image;

RadRotatorFrame frame = img.NamingContainer

as RadRotatorFrame;

img.ImageUrl = (

string)frame.DataItem;

}

that uses RadRotatorFrame object, that is not present in the current version of RadRotator.  I'm stuck on how to proceed from here.

any help would be appreciated.

thanks
charles

Hi Charles,

To make this code work with RadRotator for ASP.NET AJAX, you need to replace RadRotatorFrame with RadRotatorItem. FrameTemplate is changed to ItemTemplate as well

e.g.
rr.FrameTemplate = new RadRotatorTemplate();
becomes
rr.ItemTemplate = new RadRotatorTemplate();

I hope this helps. We are working on the new rotator's documentation and it is improved with every update.
