OFC204 - Sample Code and Demos I showed at TechEd Last Week

  • Article

At my TechEd talk last week I showed Visual Studio 2008 extensions for SharePoint 1.3 and I demo'd creating a simple web part that shows data from a SharePoint list in a grid. I also showed command line builds which is one of the features we added in VSeWSS 1.3 and I showed the SPDisposeCheck tool.

For the demos I used the WSS Developer VPC which is available here. I uninstalled the VSeWSS 1.2 that comes on that image and installed the VSeWSS 1.3 from here. I also installed SPDisposeCheck from here.

So that's my machine image to which I also created a sample Employees list and a Projects list in the default SharePoint site. Here's the code that I used in the first demo. Pretty simple stuff.

namespace WebPart1

{

    [Guid("64a11214-36e3-4b1a-b8a7-fbb0ca9370c6")]

    public class WebPart1 : System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.WebPart

    {

        public WebPart1()

        {

        }

        protected override void CreateChildControls()

        {

            SPGridView customerGridView = new SPGridView();

   SPWeb web = SPContext.Current.Web;

            SPList list = web.Lists["Employees"];

            SPQuery query = new SPQuery(list.DefaultView);

            query.Query = "<Where><Eq><FieldRef Name='JobTitle' /><Value Type='Text'>SDE</Value></Eq></Where>";

            SPListItemCollection items = list.GetItems(query);

            AutoAddColumns(customerGridView, list);

            customerGridView.DataSource = items.GetDataTable();

            customerGridView.DataBind();

            Controls.Add(customerGridView);

            base.CreateChildControls();

        }

        private void AutoAddColumns(SPGridView gridView, SPList list)

        {

            gridView.AutoGenerateColumns = false;

            foreach (string fieldname in list.DefaultView.ViewFields)

            {

                SPField field = list.Fields.GetFieldByInternalName(fieldname);

                BoundField column = new BoundField();

                column.DataField = field.StaticName;

                column.HeaderText = field.Title;

                gridView.Columns.Add(column);

            }

        }

    }

}
