binding feature layer to Datagrid Row

suharthachowdhury

Hi,

I have a feature layer cosuming a map service and a Datagrid which is bound to a domain data source. Executing a Linq query populates the datagrid. Now I want to bind this datagrid to my feature layer so that clicking on the map feature will highlight corresponding datagrid row. How can I do this? I have one datagrid field that can tie the datagrid with a corresponding feature layer attribute. any helpful link/ suggestion will be much appreciated.

Thanks for helping me.

Hi Dominique, Thanks for your suggestion! I'll try it this afternoon. How about any suggestion on selectively bind fields to FeatureDataGrid at initialization in XAML as I asked above? I searched a little bit but couldn't find a good example to do so. Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Hey Jennifer, I tried to set binding to a feature datagrid at run-time through code-behind. I took your suggestion but the binding set seems not working because the datagrid disapear. Initially I bind it with a feature layer but at run time I need re-set the binding to other layers. Below is my code:
           //binding feature datagrid to target layer
            Binding bMap = new Binding("bMap");
            bMap.Source = MyMap;

            Binding bLayer = new Binding("bLayer");
            bLayer.Source = MyMap.Layers["RegionLayer"];

            MyDataGrid.SetBinding(FeatureDataGrid.MapProperty, bMap);
            MyDataGrid.SetBinding(FeatureDataGrid.GraphicsLayerProperty, bLayer);
Initial setting for feature datagrid in XAML:
<esri:FeatureDataGrid x:Name="MyDataGrid" Background="White"
        Map="{Binding ElementName=MyMap}" 
                GraphicsLayer="{Binding ElementName=MyMap, Path=Layers.[PPP_StateLayer]}" />
Any idea what's wrong?

I don't think you need a binding. You can directly set the Map and GraphicsLayer properties:

MyDataGrid.Map = MyMap;
MyDataGrid.GraphicsLayer =  MyMap.Layers["RegionLayer"];

Easier, no?:o

Sidenote : when you create a binding by code, the string in the binding constructor is supposed to be the 'Path'.
So your code:

 Binding bMap = new Binding("bMap");
Binding bLayer = new Binding("bLayer");

should be:

 Binding bMap = new Binding("");
Binding bLayer = new Binding("");
bLayer.Source = MyMap.Layers["RegionLayer"];

or

Binding bLayer = new Binding("Layers[RegionLayer]");
bLayer.Source = MyMap;

You can look at the XAML code in this sample: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#QueryRelatedRecords to bind to the attributes.

You can set ItemsSource in code or in XAML, I believe it is something like this:
ItemsSource="{Binding Graphics}" DataContext="{Binding ElementName=MyMap, Path=Layers[MyLayerId]}".

If you are using FeatureDataGrid, this is a good example: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#FeatureDataGrid

Hey Jennifer, do you have any sample to selectively bind GraphicsLayer to FeatureDataGrid in XAML. The sample you mentioned here bind all fields to the FeatureDataGrid; I just need to select several of them to bind instead. Thanks.

If each row corresponds to a graphic, you will have access to the graphic.Attributes. I suggest you look into the Related Tables sample, specifically this event handler in code-behind: SelectedWellsTreeView_SelectedItemChanged

Hi Jennifer,

Thanks a lot for your reply. sorry for the delay. I need to make myself clearer: my datagrid is already bound to a domain data source to fetch data from a SQL table:
<sdk: DataGrid ItemsSource="{Binding ElementName=view_KMDomainDataSource, Path=Data}" x:Name="view_KMDataGrid" ...>

In this case, how can I bind the datagrid to the map layer?? So the scenario is- the datagrid is populated with the query result. Also the feature layer has feature graphics that are related to the query. Now clicking on a feature shoould take me to corresponding datagrid row. Please help and any suggestion will be appreciated.

Thanks.
Suhartha
