[Solved] Similar cast like columns.Template in Datakeys ?

[Jon Baron]

So I hope to be able to do something like:

columns.Bound(x => x.ID).Template(
                                        @<text>
                                                 @item.ID.ToString()
                                        </text>);

IN data keys, like:

keys.Add(@<text>
                                               @item.lId.ToString()
                                            </text>
                                            ).RouteKey("lId");

Is there something like this possible?

I need to do this because my 'lid' is a complex object, I need to somehow return its string value. I tried .ToString() and got an error that it could not be null.

Thanks!

Hello Jon,

I am sorry to say that there is no such feature available. The ID should be non-complex property (string,int,guid) - not a method or complex object.
