Referencing Dynamically Created GridView

[Eduardo Lorenzo]

Hi guys,

Am in a bit of  rut here :)

I create a gridview through server-side C#, then bind it to data from a SL Enabled WCF WebServie (List<customers), add it to a stackpanel, add the stackpanel to the page and so on.

I have also attached a double click handler to the grid and I now do the edit in a modal window.

Next thing to do of course is to reflect the change in the data on the grid when the modal window is closed. Here lies my problem, how do I rebind to that grid if I can't reference it since it was created runtime?

For those who understand better with code, here are some snippets:
1. Create the grid
  newGrid = new RadGridView();
                    newGrid.Width = 800;
                    newGrid.Height = 400;
2. Bind it with wcfWebService
 void ws_CustomerListCompleted(object sender, CustomerListCompletedEventArgs e)
        {
            newGrid.ItemsSource = e.Result.ToList();
        }
3. Create the modal
modalPopup myModal = new modalPopup(cc); <-- cc is a customer object based on which row was doubleclicked
4. Modal pops up, populates the textboxes, then saves the record

What I would happen is, when the modal closes, the grid is rebound.

Thanks in advancE!

Hi Eduardo Lorenzo,

Grid will be able to automatically update the its displayed values if the object that it is bound to implement INotifyPropertyChanged. Could you please check if the data objects implement INotifyPropertyChanged? Usually Visual Studio automatically generates classes which implement this interface.

Hi Milan,

Am sure it does not implement it. Will apply now and get back as soon as I break it again. :)

Thanks in advance!

Hi Milan,

I did an implementation on the object but it did not update. did I miss anything?
Here is part of the object

 public class Customer : INotifyPropertyChanged
    {
        
        public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
        private string accountNum;
     
        public string AccountNumber
        {
            get { return accountNum; }
            set
            {
                accountNum = value;
                  OnPropertyChanged("AccountNumber");
            }
        }

      
        protected void OnPropertyChanged(string name)
        {
            PropertyChangedEventHandler handler = PropertyChanged;
            if (handler != null)
            {
                handler(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(name));
            }
        }
    }

Do I have to do any changes with the WCFWebservice also?

Hi Eduardo Lorenzo,

Will it be convenient for you to send us the application? It will really help us to pinpoint the exact problem.
