Kendo HTML Helper with VB in Razor/Webforms

[Nathan]

I've look everywhere but all the code/examples I can find for Kendo UI MVC helper appear to be in C#.

Can someone point me at the VB samples or confirm Kendo only works with C#.

[William]

They write the samples in C#, because it is more popular, but VB.Net is also a .Net language, so it should be able to do most everything C# can do.  If you have a specific example I might be able to help translating it for you.

Hello William!

Please help with these line of code (bold text) from C# to VB.NET.(I use this: Model(Function(m) m.Id(Function(c) c.ProductID))), but it not work.


@(Html.Kendo().Grid<Kendo.Mvc.Examples.Models.ProductViewModel>()
.Name("grid")
.Columns(columns =>
{
columns.Bound(p => p.ProductName);
columns.Bound(p => p.UnitPrice).Width(100);
columns.Bound(p => p.UnitsInStock).Width(100);
columns.Bound(p => p.Discontinued).Width(100);
columns.Command(command => { command.Edit(); command.Destroy(); }).Width(172);
})
.ToolBar(toolbar => toolbar.Create())
.Editable(editable => editable.Mode(GridEditMode.InLine))
.Pageable()
.Sortable()
.Scrollable()
.HtmlAttributes(new { style = "height:430px;" })
.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
.Ajax()
.PageSize(20)
.Events(events => events.Error("error_handler"))
.Model(model => model.Id(p => p.ProductID))
.Create(update => update.Action("EditingInline_Create", "Grid"))
.Read(read => read.Action("EditingInline_Read", "Grid"))
.Update(update => update.Action("EditingInline_Update", "Grid"))
.Destroy(update => update.Action("EditingInline_Destroy", "Grid"))

Hi Eugene,

The correct syntax is provided at

http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/getting-started/using-kendo-with/aspnet-mvc/vb#grid

.Model(Sub(m)
            m.Id(Function(c) c.ProductID)
      End Sub)

or

.Model(Sub(m)
          m.Id("ProductID")
     End Sub)

It is also possible to use more concise syntax

.Model(Sub(m) m.Id(Function(c) c.ProductID))

or

.Model(Sub(m) m.Id("ProductID"))
