HierarchicalDataBoundControl.GetData(String) Method

Definition

Retrieves a HierarchicalDataSourceView object that the data-bound control uses to perform data operations.

protected:
 virtual System::Web::UI::HierarchicalDataSourceView ^ GetData(System::String ^ viewPath);
protected virtual System.Web.UI.HierarchicalDataSourceView GetData (string viewPath);
abstract member GetData : string -> System.Web.UI.HierarchicalDataSourceView
override this.GetData : string -> System.Web.UI.HierarchicalDataSourceView
Protected Overridable Function GetData (viewPath As String) As HierarchicalDataSourceView

Parameters

viewPath
String

The hierarchical path of the view to retrieve.

Returns

The HierarchicalDataSourceView object that the data-bound control uses to perform data operations.

Exceptions

A HierarchicalDataSourceView could not be retrieved for the specified viewPath.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how the GetData method is called to retrieve the HierarchicalDataSourceView object from the associated data source control and how the HierarchicalDataSourceView.Select method is called to retrieve the data. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the HierarchicalDataBoundControl class.

protected override void PerformDataBinding() {
    base.PerformDataBinding();

    // Do not attempt to bind data if there is no
    // data source set.
    if (!IsBoundUsingDataSourceID && (DataSource == null)) {
        return;
    }
    
    HierarchicalDataSourceView view = GetData(RootNode.DataPath);
    
    if (view == null) {
        throw new InvalidOperationException
            ("No view returned by data source control.");
    }                                  
    
    IHierarchicalEnumerable enumerable = view.Select();
    if (enumerable != null) {
                    
        Nodes.Clear();
                        
        try {
            RecurseDataBindInternal(RootNode, enumerable, 1);
        }
        finally {
        }
    }
}
private void RecurseDataBindInternal(TreeNode node, 
    IHierarchicalEnumerable enumerable, int depth) {                                    
                
    foreach(object item in enumerable) {
        IHierarchyData data = enumerable.GetHierarchyData(item);

        if (null != data) {
            // Create an object that represents the bound data
            // to the control.
            TreeNode newNode = new TreeNode();
            RootViewNode rvnode = new RootViewNode();
            
            rvnode.Node = newNode;
            rvnode.Depth = depth;

            // The dataItem is not just a string, but potentially
            // an XML node or some other container. 
            // If DataTextField is set, use it to determine which 
            // field to render. Otherwise, use the first field.

Remarks

The GetData method retrieves a HierarchicalDataSourceView object from the associated data source control by calling the GetDataSource method.
