I am having the same problem and described above.

I followed the example in the Infragistics samples:

C:\Users\Public\Documents\Infragistics\NetAdvantage 2011.2\jQuery\Samples\Samples\Grid\EditingAndSelection\BatchingUpdate\MVC

There are problems with the samples.  They are not MVC 3 compliant.

For example, the View base class needs to be WebViewPage, but the examples use an inheritance using ViewPage.  It makes a big difference.  WebViewPage has and expects Execute() but ViewPage does not.  It has to do with the MVC 3 Controller.  When I change my View base class to ViewPage the Execute(0 method is missing.  When I use WebViewPage then other code in the example is wrong, such as @this.GetGlobalResourceObject because ViewPage goes all the way down to TemplateControl but WebViewPage does not.  I figured out that I can switch this for @Resources, basically referencing the internal Resources generated class.

After all this, the execution is failing beacuse there is no HttpContext.Request.Form["ig_transactions"] value.  I cannot see where this is established (declared).  There is probably another coding difference between the sample and MVC 3.  If/when I figure it out I will post here again. 

In the mean time, please consider updating the sample for MVC 3.

Thanks, Joe

Solved my problem.  It was my own mistake.

I set up Resources for column header text values and I used the Resource value also for the PrimaryKey.  But the Resource value was abbreviated and hence was also not the name of an actual column in the data.  My bad.

In case this helps, here is some code that used that is MVC 3 compliant.

View:

@inherits System.Web.Mvc.WebViewPage<IQueryable<Company.PositionManagement.Web.ViewModels.OutOfBalanceStatusViewModel>>
@using Infragistics.Web.Mvc
@using System.Web.UI

     @Html.Infragistics().Grid(Model).ID("UpdateGrid").Height("300px").PrimaryKey("OutOfBalanceStatusId").UpdateUrl(Url.Action("EditingSaveOutOfBalanceStatusChanges")).Columns(column =>
        {
            column.For(x => x.OutOfBalanceStatusId).HeaderText(Resources.AdminResources.OutOfBalanceStatusId).Width("150px");
            column.For(x => x.Name).HeaderText(Resources.AdminResources.OutOfBalanceStatusName).Width("200px");
            column.For(x => x.Description).HeaderText(Resources.AdminResources.OutOfBalanceStatusDescription).Width("250px");
            column.For(x => x.DateTime).HeaderText(Resources.AdminResources.OutOfBalanceStatusDateTime).Width("60px");
            }).Features(features => {
                features.Sorting();
                features.Updating().ColumnSettings(settings =>
                {
                    settings.ColumnSetting().ColumnKey(Resources.AdminResources.OutOfBalanceStatusId).ReadOnly(true);
                    settings.ColumnSetting().ColumnKey(Resources.AdminResources.OutOfBalanceStatusName).EditorType(ColumnEditorType.Text);
                    settings.ColumnSetting().ColumnKey(Resources.AdminResources.OutOfBalanceStatusDescription).EditorType(ColumnEditorType.Text);
                    settings.ColumnSetting().ColumnKey(Resources.AdminResources.OutOfBalanceStatusDateTime).EditorType(ColumnEditorType.DatePicker).EditorOptions("minValue: new Date(2012, 1, 1), maxValue: new Date(), required: true");
                });
            }).Virtualization(false).GenerateCompactJSONResponse(false).DataSourceUrl(Url.Action("GetOutOfBalanceStatusData")).DataBind().Render()

Controller:

         #region OutOfBalanceStatusChaining

        [ActionName("OutOfBalanceStatus")]
        public ActionResult OutOfBalanceStatus()
        {
            return View("OutOfBalanceStatus");
        }

        [GridDataSourceAction]
        [ActionName("GetOutOfBalanceStatusData")]
        public ActionResult GetOutOfBalanceStatusData()
        {
            List<OutOfBalanceStatusDTO> outOfBalanceStatusDTOViewList = outOfBalanceStatusComponent.GetOutOfBalanceStatusQuery().ToList();
            return View("OutOfBalanceStatus", outOfBalanceStatusDTOViewList.Select(m => new OutOfBalanceStatusViewModel()
            {
                OutOfBalanceStatusId = m.OutOfBalanceStatusId,
                Name = m.Name,
                Description = m.Description,
                DateTime = m.DateTime,
            }).AsQueryable());
        }

        [ActionName("EditingSaveOutOfBalanceStatusChanges")]
        public ActionResult EditingSaveOutOfBalanceStatusChanges()
        {
            ViewData["GenerateCompactJSONResponse"] = false;
            GridModel m = new GridModel();
            List<Transaction<OutOfBalanceStatusViewModel>> transactions =
                m.LoadTransactions<OutOfBalanceStatusViewModel>(HttpContext.Request.Form["ig_transactions"]);

            foreach (Transaction<OutOfBalanceStatusViewModel> t in transactions)
            {
                if (t.type == "newrow")
                {
                    OutOfBalanceStatusViewModel outOfBalanceStatusViewModel = t.row;
                    OutOfBalanceStatusDTO outOfBalanceStatusDTO = outOfBalanceStatusViewModel.MapToDTO();
                    outOfBalanceStatusComponent.CreateOutOfBalanceStatus(outOfBalanceStatusDTO, 1);
                }
                else if (t.type == "deleterow")
                {
                    OutOfBalanceStatusViewModel outOfBalanceStatusViewModel = t.row;
                    OutOfBalanceStatusDTO outOfBalanceStatusDTO = outOfBalanceStatusViewModel.MapToDTO();
                    outOfBalanceStatusComponent.DeleteOutOfBalanceStatus(outOfBalanceStatusDTO.OutOfBalanceStatusId);
                }
                else if (t.type == "row")
                {
                    OutOfBalanceStatusViewModel outOfBalanceStatusViewModel = t.row;
                    OutOfBalanceStatusDTO outOfBalanceStatusDTO = outOfBalanceStatusViewModel.MapToDTO();
                    outOfBalanceStatusComponent.UpdateOutOfBalanceStatus(outOfBalanceStatusDTO, 1);
                }
            }

            JsonResult result = new JsonResult();
            Dictionary<string, bool> response = new Dictionary<string, bool>();
            response.Add("Success", true);
            result.Data = response;
            return result;
        }

        #endregion OutOfBalanceStatusChaining

The Component is just handling mapping the ViewModel to a DTO and persisting it in the EntityFramework context.

Hi,

i am trying to perform CRUD opeation using igGrid.

<script type="text/javascript">

function saveChanges2() {

$("#grid1").igGrid("saveChanges");

return false;

}

$('#grid1').live('iggridupdatingrowadded', function () { $("#grid1").igGrid("saveChanges") });

$('#grid1').live('iggridupdatingeditrowended', function(event, ui) {

if (ui.rowAdding == false) {

$("#grid1").igGrid("saveChanges");

}

});

$('#grid1').live('iggridupdatingrowdeleted', function () { $("#grid1").igGrid("saveChanges") });

</script>

public ActionResult UpdatingSaveChanges()

{
AppConfigRepository _app = new AppConfigRepository();

var lstapp = _app.GetAppConfig().ToList<AppConfig>();

ViewData["GenerateCompactJSONResponse"] = false;

GridModel m = new GridModel();

Transaction<AppConfig> transaction = m.LoadTransactions<AppConfig>(HttpContext.Request.Form["ig_transactions"]).First<Transaction<AppConfig>>();

switch(transaction.type)

{

case "row":

string x = transaction.rowId;

var appconf = (from ac in lstapp where ac.AttributeName == x select ac).Single();

if (transaction.row.AttributeName != null)

{

appconf.AttributeName = transaction.row.AttributeName;

}

if (transaction.row.AttributeValue != null)

{

appconf.AttributeValue = transaction.row.AttributeValue;

}

if (transaction.row.AttributeHelp != null)

{

appconf.AttributeHelp = transaction.row.AttributeHelp;

}

_app.UpdateAppConfigByAttributeName(appconf);

break;

case "newrow":

var newAppConf = new AppConfig

{

AttributeName = transaction.row.AttributeName,

AttributeValue = transaction.row.AttributeValue,

AttributeHelp = transaction.row.AttributeHelp,

};

_app.UpdateAppConfigByAttributeName(newAppConf);

break;

case "deleterow":

string id = transaction.rowId;

var deleteAppConf = (from ac in lstapp where ac.AttributeName == id select ac).Single();

if (deleteAppConf != null)

{

_app.DeleteAppConfigByAttributeName(id);

}

reak;

}

return RedirectToAction("IndexJQ", lstapp);

}

event for new row event it goes for "deleting" case.

Thanks,

Nirav

Hi Joe,

Thanks for the solution - hopefully it'll benefit other members of the community :)

All the best,
Borislav

PS: By the way, sometimes it might be easier to attach a sample to your reply, rather than pasting the source code. However, this is a matter of personal choice (and there's also a 200 KB restriction on post attachments) so its up to the poster to choose either method.
