I have two entity objects one that holds billing address information(TBLADDRESS) and one that holds my account addresses(TBLMYACCOUNTADDRESS).
At a point in my project i need to load the TBLADDRESS object with the corresponding values from TBLMYACCOUNTADDRESS. Both of which have a relation to LKSTATE.
My problem is i cannot populate this related entity manually. Maybe it's not possible?
Here is my script so far, hopefully it will help you better understand exactly what i am trying to accomplish:
TBLADDRESS tblBilling = new TBLADDRESS();
TBLMYACCOUNTADDRESS myAccountDefaultAddress = new TBLMYACCOUNTADDRESS();
myAccountDefaultAddress = myAccountAddress.FindAll(delegate(TBLMYACCOUNTADDRESS i) { return i.IS_DEFAULT == true; }).ToList().SingleOrDefault();
tblBilling = new TBLADDRESS();
tblBilling.FIRST_NAME = myAccountDefaultAddress.FIRST_NAME;
tblBilling.LAST_NAME = myAccountDefaultAddress.LAST_NAME;
tblBilling.COMPANY = myAccountDefaultAddress.COMPANY;
tblBilling.ADDRESS_1 = myAccountDefaultAddress.ADDRESS_1;
tblBilling.ADDRESS_2 = myAccountDefaultAddress.ADDRESS_2;
tblBilling.CITY = myAccountDefaultAddress.CITY;
tblBilling.LKSTATE.STATE_ID = myAccountDefaultAddress.LKSTATE.STATE_ID;
tblBilling.POSTAL_CODE = myAccountDefaultAddress.POSTAL_CODE;
tblBilling.PHONE = myAccountDefaultAddress.PHONE;
Question is how would i go about populating the tblBilling.LKSTATE.STATE_ID manually. Currently i get an object reference not set to an instance of an object error message, but something tells me there's more to it than that.
Thanks in Advance,
Billy
Figured it out.
All i need was the instance of the object created before assigning to it.
tblBilling.LKSTATE = new LKSTATE();
Initially i wasn't sure just how to create the instance. Pretty straightforward.

I've got a lot of values in a legacy Wakanda datastore which I need to update to some new values. Is there a curl-like command in the wakanda data browser page that can be used to do a mass find-and-replace in a table?
If your dataclass is called MyDataClass and the attribute you want to update is myAttribute you can use the following server-side script :
var newValue = "new value";
ds.MyDataClass.all().forEach(function(entity){
entity.myAttribute = newValue;
entity.save();
});
You can also use a transaction if you want to commit or rollback the whole operation
I don't think there is a way to do a mass of find/replace in the dataBrowser,
But I suggest you to use a query in the server side that search the records with the value you need to replace, and then a loop on this collection to set the new values
As mentioned in other answers, you are likely best to loop over a collection. There is no concept of a mass replace in Wakanda like you see in many other databases.
var myCollection = ds.DataClassName.query("attributeName == :1", "valueToFind");
myCollection.forEach(function(e){
e.attributeName = "newValue";
e.save();
});
So a fake "person" data type might look like this:
var blankFirsts = ds.Person.query("firstname == :1", "");
blankFirsts.forEach(function(person){
person.firstname = "no name";
person.save();
});
I'm facing a problem when I try to grab the Extended Amount Attribute inside the Opportunity Product Line Entity.
As follows my requirements are that upon creation of a an Opportunity Product Line I have a post-create plugin on it which applies a discount onto the extended amount and creates another line, with the new discounted extended amount. When I try to output the value on another field just to check what it gets, I keep getting 0 strangley. My code is as follows:
// Part where I grab the value
Entity entity = (Entity)context.InputParameters["Target"];
Money extenedAmount = (Money)entity["baseamount"];
//Create new line
Entity oppportunity_product = new Entity("opportunityproduct");
oppportunity_product["manualdiscountamount"] = extenedAmount;
service.Create(oppportunity_product);
Is it even possible to grab the amount? Would really much appreciate if someone could help me out here. Thanks in advanace.
After creation, you want to add a post image. Then reference the post image instead of the target.
if (context.PostEntityImages.Contains("PostImage") &&
context.PostEntityImages["PostImage"] is Entity)
{
postMessageImage = (Entity)context.PostEntityImages["PostImage"];
}
else
{
throw new Exception("No Post Image Entity in Plugin Context for Message");
}
I have created a new query like the following
var pressData = from press in dataContext.Releases
select new
{
Heading = press.Heading,
Description = press.Desc,
DatePublished = press.PublishDate.ToString(),
Body = press.BodyContent,
ID=press.ReleaseID,
CreatedBy=press.CreatedBy
};
Later in the code I want to update the entity from a session variable, but not save any data back to the database. Here is the code I am trying to accomplish this with....
var edit = pressData.Where(a => a.Heading == sectionPreview.HeadingContent && a.ID == sectionPreview.tionID).FirstOrDefault();
if (edit != null)
{
//WONT LET ME UPDATE THE Body VALUE
edit.Body = sectionPreview.SectionContent;
}
The code aboves purpose is to look at pressData and replace the body content with the new body from a session variable(not shown here), but NOT save it to the db. I want pressData to be filtered and updated only in the entity. So when I bind it to the control in this case it binds the data stored in my session.
this.rptSections.DataSource = pressData;
this.rptSections.DataBind();
I am getting a complier error stating
Property or indexer 'AnonymousType#1.Body' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only.
I checked the entity model and nothing is read only not any fields not anything. I must be missing something?
Anonymous Types encapsulate a read only property collection - for more information, read here. The compiler rewrites anonymous types as a constructor injections, ie:
select new
{
Heading = press.Heading,
Description = press.Desc,
DatePublished = press.PublishDate.ToString(),
Body = press.BodyContent,
ID=press.ReleaseID,
CreatedBy=press.CreatedBy
};
Is really rewritten as:
new Anonymous`1(press.Heading, press.Desc, press.PublishDate.ToString(), press.BodyContent, press.ReleaseID, press.CreatedBy)
And the properties are read only (public get, private / protected set, to use an easy comparison). If you want to solve your issue, instead of taking the data and making an anonymous object, create a real type and set properties on it.
I'm using a CalendarItemType view to retrieve calendar items. The only items I care about are those that I've created and I know that they are all weekly recurring items. I'm able to get each individual occurrence and, from any one of them the recurring master item, but I'd like to narrow the scope of my search to just those items that would match my pattern.
I've trying using the Restriction property on the FindItemType to specify a NotEqualTo restriction with a null constant for calenderRecurrenceId. This caused my request to time out. So far I've been unable to load the recurrences with the FindItemType at all and need to use a subsequent GetItemType call when I find an event that is an occurence in a recurring series.
Here's the code that I'm starting with. The code needs to work with both Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2010.
var findItemRequest = new FindItemType();
findItemRequest.ParentFolderIds = new DistinguishedFolderIdType[]
{
new DistinguishedFolderIdType()
};
((DistinguishedFolderIdType)findItemequest.ParentFolderIds[0]).Id = DistinguishedFolderIdNameType.calendar;
findItemRequest.Traversal = ItemQueryTraversalType.Shallow;
var itemShapeDefinition = new ItemResponseShapeType(
{
BaseShape = DefaultShapeNamesType.AllProperties;
}
findItemRequest.Item = calenderView;
findItemRequest.ItemShape = itemShapeDefinition;
var findItemResponse = this.esb.FindItem( findItemRequest );
Also, if you know of any good source of examples (beyond the ones in MSDN), I'd welcome them. I'm picking up someone else's code in an emergency and trying to learn Exchange Web Services on the fly.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, in which case I apologize.
You do NOT use the CalendarView - you use the normal IndexedPageItemView if all you want is Master Recurring Calendar items.
You use the CalendarView to expand the recurrences to individual items. However the compromise with CalendarView is NO restrictions are permitted besides Start and End Date. None.
You can search for a RecurrenceMaster by using the recurrence PidLid with an ExtendedPropertyDefinition. This works because, according to their documentation, "this property must not exist on single instance calendar items."
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc842017.aspx
// https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc842017.aspx
ExtendedPropertyDefinition apptType = new ExtendedPropertyDefinition(
DefaultExtendedPropertySet.Appointment,
0x00008216, //PidLidAppointmentRecur
MapiPropertyType.Binary);
var restriction = new SearchFilter.Exists(apptType);
var iView = new ItemView(10);
var found = folder.FindItems(restriction, iView);
I just confirmed this works, today, when revisiting some old code that works with Office365 EWS in the cloud.
Found only property you need is RecurrenceStart property. Because EWS has limitations it is not possible to use all properties in restriction. This one working as expected.
Reference: Find master recurring appointments
You can create custom searchfilters. If you search from specific startdate OR isRecurring property you have most easy way...(SearchItems returns recurring masters)
List<SearchFilter> searchFilterCollection = new List<SearchFilter>();
SearchFilter.IsGreaterThanOrEqualTo startDatumFilter = new SearchFilter.IsGreaterThanOrEqualTo(AppointmentSchema.Start, new DateTime(2012, 9, 16));
SearchFilter.IsEqualTo masterRecurringFilter = new SearchFilter.IsEqualTo(AppointmentSchema.IsRecurring, true);
searchFilterCollection.Add(startDatumFilter);
searchFilterCollection.Add(masterRecurringFilter);
SearchFilter finalFilter = new SearchFilter.SearchFilterCollection(LogicalOperator.Or, searchFilterCollection);
ItemView itemView = new ItemView(100000);
itemView.PropertySet = new PropertySet(BasePropertySet.FirstClassProperties, AppointmentSchema.AppointmentType);
FindItemsResults<Item> items = _service.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Calendar, finalFilter, itemView);
I'm learning to use Crystal Reports (with VB 2005).
Most of what I've seen so far involves slurping data directly from a database, which is fine if that's all you want to display in the report.
My DB has a lot of foreign keys, so the way I've tried to stay sane with presenting actual information in my app is to add extra members to my objects that contain strings (descriptions) of what the foreign keys represent. Like:
Class AssetIdentifier
Private ID_AssetIdentifier As Integer
Private AssetID As Integer
Private IdentifierTypeID As Integer
Private IdentifierType As String
Private IdentifierText As String
...
Here, IdentifierTypeID is a foreign key, and I look up the value in a different table and place it in IdentifierType. That way I have the text description right in the object and I can carry it around with the other stuff.
So, on to my Crystal Reports question.
Crystal Reports seems to make it straightforward to hook up to records in a particular table (especially with the Experts), but that's all you get.
Ideally, I'd like to make a list of my classes, like
Dim assetIdentifiers as New List(Of AssetIdentifier)
and pass that to a Crystal Report instead of doing a tight link to a particular DB, have most of the work done for me but leaving me to work around the part that it doesn't do. The closest I can see so far is an ADO.NET dataset, but even that seems far removed. I'm already handling queries myself fine: I have all kinds of functions that return List(Of Whatever) based on queries.
Is there an easy way to do this?
Thanks in advance!
UPDATE: OK, I found something here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms227595(VS.80).aspx
but it only appears to give this capability for web projects or web applications. Am I out of luck if I want to integrate into a standalone application?
Go ahead and create the stock object as described in the link you posted and create the report (StockObjectsReport) as they specify. In this simplified example I simply add a report viewer (crystalReportViewer1) to a form (Form1) and then use the following code in the Form_Load event.
stock s1 = new stock("AWRK", 1200, 28.47);
stock s2 = new stock("CTSO", 800, 128.69);
stock s3 = new stock("LTWR", 1800, 12.95);
ArrayList stockValues = new ArrayList();
stockValues.Add(s1);
stockValues.Add(s2);
stockValues.Add(s3);
ReportDocument StockObjectsReport = new StockObjectsReport();
StockObjectsReport.SetDataSource(stockValues);
crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = StockObjectsReport;
This should populate your report with the 3 values from the stock object in a Windows Form.
EDIT: Sorry, I just realized that your question was in VB, but my example is in C#. You should get the general idea. :)
I'm loading the report by filename and it is working perfect:
//........
ReportDocument StockObjectsReport;
string reportPath = Server.MapPath("StockObjectsReport.rpt");
StockObjectsReport.Load(reportPath);
StockObjectsReport.SetDataSource(stockValues);
//Export PDF To Disk
string filePath = Server.MapPath("StockObjectsReport.pdf");
StockObjectsReport.ExportToDisk(ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat, filePath);
#Dusty had it. However in my case it turned out you had to wrap the object in a list even though it was a single item before I could get it to print. See full code example:
string filePath = null;
string fileName = null;
ReportDocument newDoc = new ReportDocument();
// Set Path to Report File
fileName = "JShippingParcelReport.rpt";
filePath = func.GetReportsDirectory();
// IF FILE EXISTS... THEN
string fileExists = filePath +#"\"+ fileName;
if (System.IO.File.Exists(fileExists))
{
// Must Convert Object to List for some crazy reason?
// See: https://stackoverflow.com/a/35055093/1819403
var labelList = new List<ParcelLabelView> { label };
newDoc.Load(fileExists);
newDoc.SetDataSource(labelList);
try
{
// Set User Selected Printer Name
newDoc.PrintOptions.PrinterName = report.Printer;
newDoc.PrintToPrinter(1, false, 0, 0); //copies, collated, startpage, endpage
// Save Printing
report.Printed = true;
db.Entry(report).State = System.Data.Entity.EntityState.Modified;
db.SaveChanges();
}
catch (Exception e2)
{
string err = e2.Message;
}
}
