Adding a new Listview item using a template calls the Create action multiple times!

[Martin Kelly]

Hi,
I have an MVC4 application and am trying to use the Listview using the MVC wrappers. I am using an edit and a view template. 
 If there are 4 items in my list and I add a new one the Create action is called 5 times, thus 5 records get added.

I am using the latest Q2 trial version. However I previously had downloaded the beta trial version which included an MVC example project which showed the exact same behavour. Is this a bug?   
(Note the same issue occurs for other actions as well)

<div class="k-toolbar k-grid-toolbar">

    <a id="addRoleButton" class="k-button k-button-icontext k-add-button" href="#"><span class="k-icon k-add"></span>Add new Role</a>

</div>

 

    @(Html.Kendo().ListView<iProjX.Models.RoleModel>(Model.Roles)

        .Name("rolesListView")       

        .TagName("div")       

        .ClientTemplateId("rolesList")       

        .Editable()

        .Pageable()

        .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource           

            .Model(model =>

                {

                    model.Id("RoleId");

                    model.Field(f => f.ProjectId).DefaultValue(Model.ProjectId);

                    model.Field(f => f.Title);

                    model.Field(f => f.Description);;

                })

            .Events(e => e               

                .Error("rolesListViewData_error")

                .Change("rolesListViewData_change")

                .RequestStart("rolesListViewData_requestStart"))          

            .Create(create => create.Action("createRole", "Project"))           

            .Read(read => read.Action("getRoles", "Project", new { projectId = Model.ProjectId }))

            .Update(update => update.Action("updateRole", "Project"))   

            .PageSize(30)           

         )

        .Events(e => e

            .Change("rolesListView_change")

            .Edit("rolesListView_edit")

            .DataBound("rolesListView_databound"))     

    )

View Template

//View template

<script type="text/x-kendo-template" id="rolesList">

    <div class="roleView" >

        <div> ${Title} </div>

        <div> ${Description} </div>

        <div class="edit-buttons">

            <a class="k-button k-button-icontext k-edit-button" href="\\#"><span class="k-icon k-edit"></span>Edit</a>

            <a class="k-button k-button-icontext k-delete-button" href="\\#"><span class="k-icon k-delete"></span>Delete</a>

        </div>

    </div>

</script>

Edit template

@model iProjX.Models.RoleModel

 

<div class="roleView" id = "newRoleForm2" >

    @Html.ValidationSummary(true)

 

    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.ProjectId)

    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.RoleId)

 

    <div class="editor-label">

        @Html.LabelFor(model => model.Title)

    </div>

    <div class="editor-field">

        @Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Title, new { style = "width:99%", maxlength = 100 })

        <span data-for="Title" class="k-invalid-msg"></span>

    </div>

 

    <div class="editor-label">

        @Html.LabelFor(model => model.Description)

    </div>

    <div class="editor-field">

        @Html.TextAreaFor(model => model.Description, new { style = "width:100%; height:100px"})

        <span data-for="Description" class="k-invalid-msg"></span>

    </div>

 

    <div class="edit-buttons">

        <a class="k-button k-button-icontext k-update-button" onclick="updateClick()" href="\\#"><spanclass="k-icon k-update"></span>Save</a>

        <a class="k-button k-button-icontext k-cancel-button" href="\\#"><span class="k-icon k-cancel"></span>Cancel</a>

    </div>

</div>

Can you provide the code for your controller?  The action method should be caught there for example, ...

public ActionResult ContactResearch_Read([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request)
         {             
            return Json(GetContactResearch().ToDataSourceResult(request));         
         }

The _Create would be just another line item here and should not call the read method.  Otherwise, are you 
returning the entire list back or just the item that you edited.  I believe it only expects the item that was 
edited.
