Hi

I'm new to DNN.

I have a class that is similar to this:

What is the correct way in DDN to set the UnitTasks property.  This is a List<T> of objects. Should I just create a method myself that sets this property or is there a DNN method that would be more efficient.

Thanks

A

public class Unit:ContentItem{

public int UnitId {get;set;}

public String UnitName {get;set;}

public String UnitDescription {get;set;}

public List<Tasks> UnitTasks {get;set}


public override void Fill(System.Data.IDataReader dr)

{

base.FillInternal(dr);

UnitId=Null.SetNullInteger(dr["UnitId"]);

UnitId=Null.SetNulIString(dr["UnitName"]);

UnitId=Null.SetNullString(dr["UnitDescription"]);

}

public override int KeyId{

..............

}

}

Hi Andy,

You have to manage your Tasks like any other class, here the steps:

  1. Create a Task class implementing IHydratable
  2. Create your CRUD methods in DataProvider, SqlDataProvider and your Controler to manage this class
  3. At the end of the Fill method of your Unit class, add this line:
    1. UnitTasks = CBO.FillObject<Tasks>(DataProvider.Instance().GetTasks(UnitId));

We (team members) are Humans offering their knowledge, their work and their spare time FOR FREE to benefit the community. It would be so particularly appreciated that your messages begin with "Hello" and end with "Thank you" or any other form of politeness. Ask yourself what your reaction would be, if you were approached by me (a total stranger) on the street to ask you something without saying "Hello" nor "Thank you"? After several years of services dedicated to the community, I begin to be tired to read requests without any form of politeness.
