I have a web service that returns a dataset with a list of billboard names,
ip addresses, street addresses, etc..
I thought I could pull down the dataset from the web service add each board
to a List<Boards> and then bind the list to the dialog.
Boards is a class with just a bunch of strings representing each element of
the board as in it's board name.
after compile, it errors on this line:
var bctx = new BindingContext (null, _boardList, "Boards"); complaining
that _boardlist is not an intense of an object.
it works if I bind it to a Boards object, but not if I bind to a List of
Boards.
here is what I have now:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Data;
using MonoTouch.Dialog;
using MonoTouch.Foundation;
using MonoTouch.UIKit;
namespace DBBTest
{
// The UIApplicationDelegate for the application. This class is
responsible
for launching the
// User Interface of the application, as well as listening (and
optionally
responding) to
// application events from iOS.
[Register ("AppDelegate")]
public partial class AppDelegate : UIApplicationDelegate
{
// class-level declarations
UIWindow _window;
UINavigationController _nav;
List<Boards> _boardList = new List<Boards>();
//
// This method is invoked when the application has loaded and
is ready to
run. In this
// method you should instantiate the window, load the UI into
it and then
make the window
// visible.
//
// You have 17 seconds to return from this method, or iOS will
terminate
your application.
//
public override bool FinishedLaunching (UIApplication app,
NSDictionary
options)
{
_window = new UIWindow (UIScreen.MainScreen.Bounds);
//var boardElement = new RootElement("Boards"){new
Section()};
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
Dbb.Service1 dbb = new Dbb.Service1 ();
ds = dbb.GetBoards ("Phoenix", "");
foreach (DataTable table in ds.Tables)
{
foreach(DataRow row in table.Rows)
{
Boards board = new Boards ();
board._boardName = row[0].ToString();//board
name
boardList.Add(board);
}
}
var bctx = new BindingContext (null, _boardList,
"Boards");
var dvc = new DialogViewController (bctx.Root);
_nav = new UINavigationController (dvc);
_window.RootViewController = _nav;
_window.MakeKeyAndVisible ();
return true;
}
}
}
