How do I save updates in a GridView control in VB to an existing XML document?
I have an existing xml document with music playlist information, which is read into a GridView control in Visual Basic. I am now wanting to save any updates in the GridView to that xml document. How can I do this?
Private Sub cboUsers_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cboUsers.SelectedIndexChanged
Dim songList As New XmlDocument
songList.LoadXml(s.GetPlaylist(cboUsers.SelectedItem.ToString()))
Grid.Rows.Clear()
Dim songs As XmlNodeList = songList.DocumentElement.SelectNodes("//Song")
Dim song As XmlNode
For Each song In songs
Dim artist As String = song.SelectSingleNode("artist").InnerText
Dim title As String = song.SelectSingleNode("title").InnerText
Dim length As String = song.SelectSingleNode("lengt开发者_如何学Goh").InnerText
Dim album As String = song.SelectSingleNode("album").InnerText
Dim popularity As String = song.SelectSingleNode("popularity").InnerText
Dim row() As Object = {artist, title, length, album, popularity}
Grid.Rows.Add(row) ' Add as a row in the Grid
Next
End Sub
Thanks
One approach would be to add your own Update command column
<asp:CommandField ShowEditButton="True" HeaderStyle-Width="80px" />
Then use the grids Updating event to do your work. You can either retrieve the new (and old) values from the
GridViewUpdateEventArgs e
Eg
String foo = e.NewValues["columnFoo"].ToString();
Do your update to XML then cancel the update itself
e.Cancel = true;
C# code examples but easily copied to VB.
Edit, added VB code as requested
Protected Sub GridView1_RowUpdating(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewUpdateEventArgs) Handles GridView1.RowUpdating
'Get some new values
Dim foo As String = e.NewValues("fooColumn").ToString()
'Im not sure how you plan to find the unique XML node so lets assume that your using title
'So either get it from a datakey, if your using them in the gridview
Dim titleFromDataKey As String = GridView1.DataKeys(e.RowIndex)("Title").ToString();
'Or from the old values
Dim titleFromOldValues = e.OldValues("Title").ToString()
'Insert your logic to find the XML node and update it here
'Cancel the update
e.Cancel = True
End Sub
