ASP.NET Framework Features That Are Compatible with MVC

It might appear that Web Forms and MVC are very different technologies. However, both of these technologies are built on the ASP.NET framework. Therefore, most ASP.NET framework features that you have used to create applications that are based on Web Forms are also available to you for developing MVC applications. This includes features such as membership, authentication, roles, and configuration, which work the same way in an MVC application as they do in a Web Forms application. Most ASP.NET namespaces, classes, and interfaces can be used in an ASP.NET MVC application.

 ASP.NET Framework Features That Are Incompatible with MVC

Because ASP.NET MVC does not maintain state information by using view state, you must find other ways to manage state information, if you need it. In addition, server controls that rely on view state and postback will not work as designed in an ASP.NET MVC application. Therefore, you should not use controls such as the GridView, Repeater, and DataList controls.

准备工作:

//一个Student类:
 public class Student
    {
        public int Number { get; set; }
        public string Name { get; set; }
    }
//Dummy Data构造的绑定数据如下:
  List<Student> students = new List<Student>();
 students.Add(new Student { Name = "lee", Number = 123 });
 students.Add(new Student { Name = "Zen", Number = 234 });
 students.Add(new Student { Name = "angle", Number = 101 });
 ViewData["Students"] = students;

 

问题是什么?

      在View中使用Repeater的问题其实就是绑定事件的执行,明确了这一点其实问题就很简单了.

 

方案一:页面级解决

我们设计一个View的基类,该基类在页面Load的时候完成DataBind,这样不管页面中有没有需要绑定的控件,需要绑定的控件是什么,这个方法执行完之后就会完成绑定.首先验证我们的想法:

 

//View基类
public class AutoBindViewPage : ViewPage
{
    protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
    {
      this.DataBind();    
      base.OnLoad(e);
    }
}

页面代码片段:

 

<%@ Page Title="" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Views/Shared/Site.Master" Inherits="AutoBindViewPage" %>

<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="TitleContent" runat="server">
    Helloworld
</asp:Content>
<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent" runat="server">
    <h2>
        Repeater Test</h2>
    <%=Html.Encode(ViewData["Students"])%><br />
    <asp:Repeater ID="Repeater1" DataSource='<%#ViewData["Students"]%>' runat="server">
        <ItemTemplate>
            Name:<%#Eval("Name")%><br />
        </ItemTemplate>
    </asp:Repeater>

</asp:Content>

  

注意:Inherits="AutoBindViewPage"

跑一下程序,成功.

原理:

我们看一下继承关系:AutoBindViewPage-->ViewPage-->Page-->TemplateControl-->Control

考察一下Control类的DataBind事件:

 

protected virtual void DataBind(bool raiseOnDataBinding)
{
    bool flag = false;
    if (this.IsBindingContainer)
    {
        bool flag2;
        object dataItem = DataBinder.GetDataItem(this, out flag2);
        if (flag2 && (this.Page != null))
        {
            this.Page.PushDataBindingContext(dataItem);
            flag = true;
        }
    }
    try
    {
        if (raiseOnDataBinding)
        {
            this.OnDataBinding(EventArgs.Empty);
        }
        this.DataBindChildren();
    }
    finally
    {
        if (flag)
        {
            this.Page.PopDataBindingContext();
        }
    }
}

 

 

 关键就在这里:this.DataBindChildren();

 

 方案二:AutoBindRepeater

     扩展ViewPage不是什么好主意,把"Repeater绑定"看做一个职责,那么这个职责应该属于Repeater自己的.想到这里也就简单了,删除掉刚刚扩展的类,实现一个AutoBindRepeater:

 

namespace TestControls
{
    {
        protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
        {
            this.DataBind();
                 base.OnLoad(e);
        }
    }
}

 

 

页面代码片段:

 

 

<%@ Page Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Views/Shared/Site.Master" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage" %>

<%@ Register Namespace="TestControls" Assembly="ZenMvc" TagPrefix="My" %>
 … … 
<My:AutoBindRepeater DataSource='<%#ViewData["Students"]%>' runat="server">
        <ItemTemplate>
            Name:<%#Eval("Name")%><br />
        </ItemTemplate>
    </My:AutoBindRepeater>

跑一下,通过.

 

方案三:AutoBindRepeaterUseDataKey

方案三其实是做一点简单的改造,可以看到 DataSource='<%#ViewData["Students"]%>'在每一个Repeater中都是重复的,改造的目的就是为了简化这一语句.方法也很简单:添加对数据源的解析就可以.

 

 public class AutoBindRepeaterUseDataKey : System.Web.UI.WebControls.Repeater
    {
        private string _dataKey;
        public string DataKey
        {
            get { return _dataKey; }
            set { _dataKey = value; }
        }
        protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
        {
            ViewPage viewPage = (System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage)Page;
            this.DataSource = viewPage.ViewData[DataKey];
            this.DataBind();
                  base.OnLoad(e);
        }
    }

 

页面代码片段:

 

 <My:AutoBindRepeaterUseDataKey DataKey="Students"  runat="server">
        <ItemTemplate>
            Name:<%#Eval("Name")%> &nbsp;&nbsp;
            Number:<%#Eval("Number") %><br />
        </ItemTemplate>
 </My:AutoBindRepeaterUseDataKey>

 

调试,通过.

 

方案四:MVCRepeater

       细心地你一定发现了,在上面的改造中,我们已经在标准的Repeater实现中引入了MVC框架的内容.在MvcFutures项目中的Microsoft.Web.Mvc.Controls里面,我们找到了一个MVCRepeater的实现:

 

<%@ Register Assembly="Microsoft.Web.Mvc" Namespace="Microsoft.Web.Mvc.Controls" TagPrefix="MVC"  %>
 <MVC:Repeater  Name="Students" runat="server" >
    <ItemTemplate>
     Name:<%#Eval("Name")%><br />
    </ItemTemplate>
    </MVC:Repeater>

 

MVCRepeater的实现略. 

方案五:foreach语句

 

 继续追究为什么要使用Repeater,是因为我们要展示一组数据,走到这里我们的调整一下目标,不再是在MVC使用Repeater控件,而是实现在asp.net MVC 中展示一组数据.

foreach语句具有相当好的表现力:

 

 <%foreach (var item in (List<Student>)ViewData["Students"]){%>
          [Name]: <%=item.Name%><br/>
      <%} %>

 

方案五:MvcContrib Grid & SparkViewEngine

全面考虑, MvcContrib Grid和SparkViewEngine也是具有技术可行性.但是是否要引入到项目中要谨慎考虑.

 

<%= Html.Grid(Model.People).Columns(column => {
             column.For(x => x.Id).Named("Person ID");
             column.For(x => x.Name);
             column.For(x => x.DateOfBirth).Format("{0:d}");
         })
        .Attributes(style => "width:100%")
         .Empty("There are no people.")
         .RowStart(row => "<tr foo='bar'>") %>
