Save dynamically created Raddoc into the database

[prayag ganoje]

Hello,
I am trying to save the dynamically  created raddoc in to mssql. GetRegisteredDocksState() does not recognize the newly created raddoc.

Public Sub SaveState()
        Dim dockState As String
        Dim serializer As New Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer()
        Dim stateList As List(Of DockState) = RadDockLayout1.GetRegisteredDocksState()
        Dim serializedList As New StringBuilder()
        Dim i As Integer = 0
        While i < stateList.Count
            serializedList.Append(serializer.Serialize(stateList(i)))
            serializedList.Append("|")
            i += 1
        End While
        dockState = serializedList.ToString()
....
....

 Do you have any KB article on the same ?

Hello Prayag,

In order for the GetRegisteredDocksState method to return the state of all docks, each dock needs to be a child control (it doesn't need to be direct child) of the RadDockLayout. Also, the dock needs to be added before invoking the method to retrieve the state.
We have two projects in our Code Library that demonstrate how to dynamically create RadDock controls and save their state in a DataBase. Here are links:
