Null date reference when passing json to MVC Controller
- by Jake
I am building an event system that posts data to a google calendar. I am using jquery 1.4.2, fullcalendar 1.4.5, and asp.net MVC 2. I am using a jquery ui modal dialog for the entry system. Jquery ui datepicker for the from and to fields. Select boxes for the time fields. I have tried both string and DateTime formats in the GCalEvent Class for startDate, startTime, endDate and endTime.
I am receiving a null reference with the dates passed to the controllers Action method.
var gcalevent = {
'eventID': $('#eventID').val(),
'eventURL': $('#eventURL').val(),
'date': {
'startDate': $("#from").val(),
'startTime': $('#eventStartHour option:selected').val() + ":" + $('#eventStartMin option:selected').val() + $('#eventStartAMPM option:selected').val(),
'endDate': $('#to').val(),
'endTime': $('#eventEndHour option:selected').val() + ":" + $('#eventEndMin option:selected').val() + $('#eventEndAMPM option:selected').val()
},
'allDay': $('#chkAllDay').attr('checked'),
'where': $('#eventWhere').val(),
'eventTitle': $('#eventTitle').val(),
'eventDescription': $('#eventDescription').val()
};
$.post("/home/AddRepeatingEvent", gcalevent, addEventCallback);
public void AddNonRepeatingEvent(Models.GCalEvent gcalevent)
{
IGCalRepository _gcalrepo;
GCalRepository gcalrepo = new GCalRepository();
_gcalrepo = gcalrepo;
//_gcalrepo.AddEvent(gcalevent);
GetGoogleEventURL(gcalevent.eventID.ToString());
}
public enum Days
{

}
public class GCalEventDate

public string endDate {get;set;}
public string endTime {get;set;}
}
internal class Duration
{

int Hours { get; set; }
int Minutes { get; set; }
}
public class RepeatedDaily: RepeatBaseType
{
public int Days { get; set; }
}
public class RepeatedWeekly : RepeatBaseType
{
public int Weeks { get; set; }
public Days[] days { get; set; }
}
public class RepeatedMonthly : RepeatBaseType
{
public int Months { get; set; }
public RepeatedMonthlyType repeatedMonthlyType { get; set; }
}
public class RepeatedYearly : RepeatBaseType
{
public int Years {get;set;}
}
public abstract class RepeatedMonthlyType
{
}
public class RepeatedMonthlyDayOfWeek : RepeatedMonthlyType
{
public Days[] DayOfWeek { get; set; }
public OrderType orderType { get; set; }
}
public class RepeatedMonthlyDayOfMonth : RepeatedMonthlyType
{
public DateTime DayOfMonth { get; set; }
}
This is the first time i am attempting to use abastract classes.
Thank you for your help.
