IntroductionToday, in this article let's play around with one of the interesting and most useful concepts in C#.Question: What is dynamic data web application?In simple terms "It enables performing the CRUD operations with the help of pre-defined created dynamic templates".Step 1: Create a new webform project:Step 2: Add a new ADO.NET Data Entity Model item:Step 3: The output of Global.asax.cs looks like this:using System;using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;using System.Web;using System.Web.DynamicData;using System.Web.Routing;namespace DynamicDataApp{ public class Global : System.Web.HttpApplication { private static MetaModel s_defaultModel = new MetaModel(); public static MetaModel DefaultModel { get{return s_defaultModel; } } public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes) { // IMPORTANT: DATA MODEL REGISTRATION // Uncomment this line to register an ADO.NET Entity Framework model for ASP.NET Dynamic Data.// Set ScaffoldAllTables = true only if you are sure that you want all tables in the// data model to support a scaffold (i.e. templates) view. To control scaffolding for// individual tables, create a partial class for the table and apply the// [ScaffoldTable(true)] attribute to the partial class.// Note: Make sure that you change "YourDataContextType" to the name of the data context// class in your application. DefaultModel.RegisterContext(typeof(CompanyEntities), new ContextConfiguration() { ScaffoldAllTables = true }); // The following statement supports separate-page mode, where the List, Detail, Insert, and // Update tasks are performed by using separate pages. To enable this mode, uncomment the following // route definition, and comment out the route definitions in the combined-page mode section that follows. routes.Add(new DynamicDataRoute("{table}/{action}.aspx"){Constraints = new RouteValueDictionary(new { action = "List|Details|Edit|Insert" }),Model = DefaultModel}); // The following statements support combined-page mode, where the List, Detail, Insert, and// Update tasks are performed by using the same page. To enable this mode, uncomment the// following routes and comment out the route definition in the separate-page mode section above.// routes.Add(new DynamicDataRoute("{table}/ListDetails.aspx") { Action = PageAction.List, ViewName = "ListDetails", Model = DefaultModel}); routes.Add(new DynamicDataRoute("{table}/ListDetails.aspx") { Action = PageAction.Details, ViewName = "ListDetails", Model = DefaultModel}); } void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e) { RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes); } }}Step 4: The output of the application looks like this:Step 5: The data inserted output of the application looks like this:I hope this article is useful for you. I look forward for your comments and feedback. Thanks Vijay Prativadi
