I am adding a new address and I know the structure as AddressID = PK and all other entities are non nullable. Now on insert of a new row the addrID Pk is autogened and I am wondering if I would have to get that to create a new row in the referencing table EmployeeAddress or does that automatically get generated also. also I want to be able to repopulate the dropdownlist that lists the current employee's addresses with the newly created address.
static uint _curEmpID;
protected void btnAdd_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (txtZip.Text != "" && txtAdd1.Text != "" && txtCity.Text != "")
{
TestDataClassDataContext dc = new TestDataClassDataContext();
Address addr = new Address()
{
AddressLine1 = txtAdd1.Text,
AddressLine2 = txtAdd2.Text,
City = txtCity.Text,
PostalCode = txtZip.Text,
StateProvinceID = Convert.ToInt32(ddlState.SelectedValue)
};
dc.Addresses.InsertOnSubmit(addr);
lblSuccess.Visible = true;
lblErrMsg.Visible = false;
dc.SubmitChanges();
//
// TODO: insert new row in EmployeeAddress to reference CurEmp to newly created address
//
SetAddrList();
}
else
{
lblErrMsg.Text = "Invalid Input";
lblErrMsg.Visible = true;
}
}
protected void ddlAddList_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
lblErrMsg.Visible = false;
lblSuccess.Visible = false;
TestDataClassDataContext dc = new TestDataClassDataContext();
dc.ObjectTrackingEnabled = false;
if (ddlAddList.SelectedValue != "-1")
{
var addr = (from a in dc.Addresses
where a.AddressID == Convert.ToInt32(ddlAddList.SelectedValue)
select a).FirstOrDefault();
txtAdd1.Text = addr.AddressLine1;
txtAdd2.Text = addr.AddressLine2;
txtCity.Text = addr.City;
txtZip.Text = addr.PostalCode;
ddlState.SelectedValue = addr.StateProvinceID.ToString();
btnSubmit.Visible = true;
btnAdd.Visible = false;
}
else
{
txtAdd1.Text = "";
txtAdd2.Text = "";
txtCity.Text = "";
txtZip.Text = "";
btnAdd.Visible = true;
btnSubmit.Visible = false;
}
}
protected void SetAddrList()
{
TestDataClassDataContext dc = new TestDataClassDataContext();
dc.ObjectTrackingEnabled = false;
var addList = from addr in dc.Addresses
from eaddr in dc.EmployeeAddresses
where eaddr.EmployeeID == _curEmpID && addr.AddressID == eaddr.AddressID
select new
{
AddValue = addr.AddressID,
AddText = addr.AddressID,
};
ddlAddList.DataSource = addList;
ddlAddList.DataValueField = "AddValue";
ddlAddList.DataTextField = "AddText";
ddlAddList.DataBind();
ddlAddList.Items.Add(new ListItem("<Add Address>", "-1"));
}
OK I am hoping that I did not include too much code. I would really appreciate any other comments about I could otherwise improve this code in any other ways also.
