charpter 4 callback feature

mlcy · #1 (**permalink**) June 4th, 2006, 12:12 AM

does anyone know how to use this feature?

i have followed the listing 4-14, and modified the codes based on the changes to ICallbackEventHandler class in asp.net 2.0 final release, but i got "UseCallback" is not defined when i access the aspx page. it complains the UseCallback() javascript function, which is created in the code-behind, is not defined. do i need to setup anything to enable this callback feature in 2.0? please help.

I believe 'UseCallback' is an arbitrary name. You do have to define it yourself. On page 124, the book seems to define the function in this chunk of code:

Code:

string cbReference = Page.ClientScript.GetCallbackEventReference(this, "arg", "GetRandomNumberFromServer", "context");
string cbScript = "function UseCallback(arg, context)" + 
  "{" + cbReference + ";" + "}";

Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this.GetType(), "UseCallback", cbScript, true);

And remember JavaScript is case sensitive; "UseCallback" and "UseCallBack" are different.

I'm having the same problem with this one using the C# code.

Hi does your code works at all?
or you simply want to know more about the CallBack feature?
This one works fine.
In a case you still need a working one, copy paste it to your project.

Thanks for the source code but that did not work without fully qualifying the two callback methods with ICallbackEventHandler.

   string ICallbackEventHandler.GetCallbackResult()
    {
        //throw new Exception("The method or operation is not implemented.");
        return _callbackResult;
    }

    void ICallbackEventHandler.RaiseCallbackEvent(string eventArgument)
    {
        Random rnd = new Random();
        _callbackResult = rnd.Next().ToString();
    }

Need to download code?
