Another relate editing post:

NathalieNeagle

Like a few others I'm trying to set up a relate and I want to be able to add records (rows) to my related table and change attribute infomation...basic editing. There are a few post and Jennifer and Chris (ESRI) give suggestion(s) to start with the relate example and make the related table a feature services. I've done both of these tasks but I've been having problems with figurin out how to move forward from this point. I'm thinking I might have to convert the DataGrid that the example uses to a featuredatagrid. Would this be the right move? I've tired thi with no success and was hoping for a push forward with some more insight or code.

Thanks
Nathalie

Sorry, when I looked at that later I see it would not work but we don't want to be using ItemsSource with the FeatureDataGrid, that is there because it inherits from DataGrid but really should be working with the GraphicsLayer property as the binding property.

You said you had it working to load the entire FeatureLayer data using code the Jenifer provided. If you go back to that setup than the only part missing is filtering the list after the relationship query. In that setup you have a class level variable l which is the FeatiureLayer. I am going to call that _featureLayer because I hate having a variable named l.

Right now you have

        private void QueryTask_ExecuteRelationshipQueryCompleted(object sender, RelationshipEventArgs e)         {               IEnumerable<Graphic> graphics = e.Result.RelatedRecordsGroup.First().Value;                RelationshipResult pr = e.Result;              if (pr.RelatedRecordsGroup.Count == 0)              {                    RelatedRowsDataGrid.ItemsSource = null;              }              else              {                  foreach (var pair in pr.RelatedRecordsGroup)                  {                        RelatedRowsDataGrid.ItemsSource = pair.Value;                      MyFDG.ItemsSource = pair.Value;                                          }              }         }

What needs to happen in the RelationshipComplete handler is that the FeatureLayer (_featureLayer) gets filtered to only show the correct records.

        private void QueryTask_ExecuteRelationshipQueryCompleted(object sender, RelationshipEventArgs e)         {             //This line gets you the all features returned from the Relationship Query             IEnumerable<Graphic> graphics = e.Result.RelatedRecordsGroup.First().Value;                          // There are two ways to filter either using Where clause or using the ObjectIDs property             // before you set the Where clause to return all records 1=1 I think             // Here instead lets use the ObjectIDs approach, first get rid of the old Where                    _featureLayer.Where = null //remember _featureLayer is l                                      //ObjectIDs takes an int[] and with a little Linq we can get that array             // I am assumning you have included OBJECTID in your outfields when you defined the query                          int[] objectIds = graphics.Select(g => (int)g.Attributes["OBJECTID"]).ToArray();               //now set the ObjectIDs on our FeatureLayer                          _featureLayer.ObjectIDs = objectIds;               //Update the FeatureLayer to 'redraw' the new filtered set of Features                     _featureLayer.Update();               //And I hope this worked.  you could rebind the layer to the grid to make sure all is good             MyFDG.GraphicsLayer = _featureLayer;           }

Hope that helps

How I have it setup which you would have to do slightly different (but pretty similar) is have a private field to hold the relationship id (in my case OID) so in my ExecuteComplete of the spatial query


        //The OID of the current related feature that the user selected
        private int _currentLocationId;

        private void SpatialQueryCompleted(object sender, QueryEventArgs e)
        {
            if ( e.FeatureSet.Features.Count() == 0 ) return;


            Graphic graphic = e.FeatureSet.Features[0];


            //Assign the location OID to internal field so can use when a new record is created
            _currentLocationId = Convert.ToInt32(graphic.Attributes["OBJECTID"]);


            RelationshipParameter parameter = new RelationshipParameter
                                                  {
                                                      ObjectIds = new[] { _currentLocationId },
                                                      RelationshipId = 0,
                                                      OutFields = new[] { "OBJECTID" }
                                                  };




            _queryTask.ExecuteRelationshipQueryCompleted += RelationshipQueryCompleted;
            _queryTask.ExecuteRelationshipQueryAsync(parameter);
        }

Then in the code where a new record is added


        private void ExecuteAdd()
        {
            //Create the new Graphic object and set the default values for the attributes
            Graphic graphic = new Graphic();
...
            graphic.Attributes.Add("LOCATION_OID", _currentLocationId);


            _featureLayer.Graphics.Add(graphic);


            //Set the bound GraphicsSource so the DataForm is loaded with the new record
            GraphicSource = graphic;
        }

in your case you would set the _currentLocationId to the attribute that you are using but other than that it is about the same. What I also do is not include that relationship field in the OutFields on the FeatureLayer, so while I am setting it and creating the relationship the user does not see it

For a delete, I have not done this, but I think you would need to add a Delete button like the Add button and Remove from the FeatureLayer. Maybe something along these lines


        private void DeleteButton_Click(object sender, System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            _featureLayer.Graphics.Remove(MyFeatureDataGrid.SelectedGraphics[0]);
        }

Joe and Jennifer

I know the conference is right around the corner (next week) and you are both probably slammed and getting ready for SD but I was wondering if you could help me out with the two small other items I can't seem to get:

First one is in the example http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/silverlight-api/samples/start.htm#QueryRelatedRecords and in my (our I should say yours and Jennifer's). The linking ID usually the OBJECTID in the examples is displayed in the treeveiw when an item is selected.

   

  <!-- RELATED LINK RESOURCE-->
            <common:HierarchicalDataTemplate x:Key="TreeViewItemTemplate">
               <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Margin="0">
                    <!--<Ellipse Fill="Transparent" Height="6" Width="6" StrokeThickness="2" Stroke="Black" Margin="0,0,10,0"/>-->
                    <!--<TextBlock Text="FeatureID:  " HorizontalAlignment="Left" FontSize="10" Margin="0"/>-->
                <TextBlock x:Name="TextBlockRelate" Text="{Binding Attributes[APN]}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" FontSize="10"/>
               
                </StackPanel>
            </common:HierarchicalDataTemplate>
            <!--END RELATED LINK RESOURCE-->





  <basics:TreeView x:Name="SelectedWellsTreeView" MaxHeight="180"  Grid.Column="0"  Margin="1"
                                 ItemsSource="{Binding}" BorderBrush="Gray" BorderThickness=".5"
                  SelectedItemChanged="SelectedWellsTreeView_SelectedItemChanged" 
                                 ItemTemplate="{StaticResource TreeViewItemTemplate}"
                                             
                                             
                            />

I want to take this ID but I'm not using the OBJECTID and pass or bind it back to my C# page to fill in the field of the newly added record. So when the Add button is click (Jennifer's code) the right ID is prepopulated for my enduser: I tried to bind and pass every which way and just can't get it.

   private void addrowButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            var g = new Graphic();
            if (l != null && l.LayerInfo != null && l.LayerInfo.Fields != null)
            {
                foreach (var f in l.LayerInfo.Fields)
                {
                    g.Attributes[f.Name] = null;
                  //   g.Attributes["APN"] = RelateIdTextBlock.Text;
      //   g.Attributes["APN"] = SelectedWellsTreeView.SelectedValue.ToString());
                }
            }
            else
            {
                //g.Attributes["sf_311_serviceoid"] = 21467;
                //g.Attributes["agree_with_incident"] = (Int16)1;
                //g.Attributes["DateTime"] = DateTime.UtcNow;
                //g.Attributes["cient_ip"] = "unknown";
                //g.Attributes["notes"] = string.Format("Added - {0} - local time", DateTime.Now);
               // g.Attributes["APN"] = 2146700000;
                //g.Attributes["GEN_PLAN"] = "GPk";

            }
            l.Graphics.Add(g);
        }

My other questions is what about deleting a selected related record from the featuretablegrid.

Thanks

Thanks Joe and Jennifer,

I finally got it working...now I just need to tweak it slightly to look good in my app and I want to add a delete button to delete a related record. Thanks for all the time.

Nathalie

Joe,

Thanks for the post and the time. The codes populating but I haven't had anytime to look at it....I'm going to spend sometime next week and I'll let you know....Hopefully I can mark this question as answered and give you some real credit.

Thanks again and have a good weekend.

Joe,

Thanks again so much for sticking with this...very kind of you!

So your line of code is throwing an error that states: �??System.Reflection.AmbiguousMatchException: Amiguous match found.�?�

The stack trace is really not telling me anything �?? see attachment

Not sure what's wrong.

stacktrace.png

JoeHershman

What is happening there is that you are binding the FDG to an IEnumerable<Graphic> so you are seeing all the properties on a Graphic object. Try this (not sure it will work, but I think it might)

            foreach ( var pair in pr.RelatedRecordsGroup )
            {
                MyFDG.ItemsSource = pair.Value.Select(g => g.Attributes);
            }

That Selects the IEnumerable<Graphic> into an IEnumerable<IDictionary<string, object>>, basically an enumerator of Attributes

Good luck

NathalieNeagle

If try pair the FDG - Highlight in Red



        void QueryTask_ExecuteRelationshipQueryCompleted(object sender, RelationshipEventArgs e)
        {

            IEnumerable<Graphic> graphics = e.Result.RelatedRecordsGroup.First().Value;
            

              

          
             RelationshipResult pr = e.Result;
             if (pr.RelatedRecordsGroup.Count == 0)
             {

                 RelatedRowsDataGrid.ItemsSource = null;
             }
             else
             {
                 foreach (var pair in pr.RelatedRecordsGroup)
                 {

                     RelatedRowsDataGrid.ItemsSource = pair.Value;
                     MyFDG.ItemsSource = pair.Value;
                     

                 }
             }
        }

The featuredatagrid gets populated with the correct number of records but the fields seem like they are the geometry fields (Geometry, Symbol, MapTip, Selected, Dispatcher, etc --see attachement) not the attributes fields.

This was and has been the deal since the beginning

Thanks
Nathalie

Joe,

Thanks again for all the posts and help. I followed what you said and now my feature datagrid isn't populated with all the features(records) on startup like before (it is blank) but when I do a selection nothing happens it doesn't get populated.

I did have to change this variable

 l.Initialized += (s, e) =>
                                 {
                                     l.UpdateCompleted += UpdateCompleted;
                                     l.UpdateFailed += UpdateFailed;
                                     l.Update();
                                 };

to: It was saying I couldn't reassign the local variable e.

void l_Initialized(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
        l.Initialized += (s, f) =>
                                 {
                                     l.UpdateCompleted += UpdateCompleted;
                                     l.UpdateFailed += UpdateFailed;
                                     l.Update();
                              };


          // var l = sender as FeatureLayer;
         //  l.Update();
        }

I'm still wonder how this ties to relate and pairing with the Relationship Event. As stated before I can get the relate example working and I can get Jennifer's featuredatagrid editor working with the same related feature class but I can't bridge the two.

Thanks
Nat

JoeHershman

I would try to go back to the original setup you have for the MyFDG (the commented out version).

Where you instantiate a new FeatureLayer in code


             l = new FeatureLayer()
            {
                ID = "MyLayer",
                Url = "http://myserver/ArcGIS/rest/services/Relate/FeatureServer/1",
                Mode = FeatureLayer.QueryMode.Snapshot,
                Where = "1=1"
            };

Instead use (you don't need any of the Initialization handlers because it will already be initialized):


    l = Map.Layers["RelatedFeatureLayer"];

I am assuming you have the 'RelatedFeatureLayer' as a FeatureLayer in your map (if not add it).


<esri:FeatureLayer ID="RelatedFeatureLayer" Url="http://myserver/ArcGIS/rest/services/Relate/FeatureServer/1" />

I would also be very interested to know (because it is something strange I have seen) what happens if you change your existing code (i.e., does update complete successfully):


            //Modified initialzed method
            l.Initialized += (s, e) =>
                                 {
                                     l.UpdateCompleted += UpdateCompleted;
                                     l.UpdateFailed += UpdateFailed;
                                     l.Update();
                                 };


        private void UpdateFailed(object sender, TaskFailedEventArgs e)
        {
            MessageBox.Show(e.Error.Message);
        }

        private void UpdateCompleted(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("WooHoo!");
        }

Hope that helps

Jennifer and Joe,

Thank you both for all the replies and the code. Jennifer I missed your post (number 35), before that it was all about converting VB to C# so I stopped reading.

Jennifer,

I now have the query relate example up and running (with my services) http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#QueryRelatedRecords - and the code you posted (with my same feature layer related table).

But I'm still missing the piece and struggling with how I drop the original data grid, which is used in the relate example and replace it with the feature grid from your example.

I'm giving both of you points for all your help.

Attached is the code I have for doing Updates and Adds of related records. The way it works is that the user clicks on a point and the FeatureDataGrid will load with the related data. Then when the user clicks on a record the FeatureDataForm is loaded with that record. There is an Add button on the UI and when the user clicks it a new record is added to the FeatureLayer and the FeatureDataForm is populated with that record (containing default values for the particular data types of the field).

A few notes about how the code is written. The application architecture is Modular (each application feature is in a Module) and use a MVVM design pattern. PRISM is used for modularity and to support commanding and event aggregation. The application also uses MEF for dependency injection. There is an object of type IMapViewUIService that is injected into the ViewModel which is used primarily to share the Map across Modules. Hence, the code would not be usable as as (unless you have a PRISM/MEF application that happens to have an IMapViewUIService

), but I hope shows the code that takes care of everything. I tried to put enough comments in there to explain what is going on.

This is the Xaml from my main page that has the FeatureLayer. As I have said in some other posts I have never got it to work for editing records when adding the FeatureLayer in code, don't know why but the Graphics never get loaded

                     <esri:Map x:Name="_map" Background="Transparent" WrapAround="true" IsLogoVisible="False">
                        <esri:ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer ID="Ad Soft"

                        <esri:ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer ID="BaseLayer" 
                                Url="http://sdm7/arcgis/rest/services/MapOverview/MapServer" />
                         <!-- FeatureLayer with Url of Related Table -->
                        <esri:FeatureLayer ID="Feature_Layer" Url="http://sdm7/ArcGIS/rest/services/Demos/Demo_RelatedDataEntry/FeatureServer/1" />
                    </esri:Map>

Hope it helps

I think Post# 35 has XAML and Code-behind (see attachment), so the FeatureLayer there that is a table is not added to the map but is just associated to FeatureDataGrid by setting FDG.GraphicsLayer property.

Jennifer,

Thanks for the post/suggestions. Yea I've looked at that post several times and I got the example up and running that Doug Carroll posted. I couldn't really make the transition to a related table and a featuredatagrid. I see you posted some code but once again I'm kind of lost with that also. I do have a feature layer and I have it running with the related table example I just can't make the jump to a featuredatagrid or a featuredataform.

I think this thread might also be related: http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/21714-Editing-Tables-in-Feature-Service-with-Silverlight-4.

If you happen to have GraphicsLayer, this is also supported in FeatureDataGrid but if you already have FeatureLayer, that is better since metadata information on fields help FDG build its columns.

Joe,

Thanks for your reply,

I've been struggling with this all morning...your post did a good job of outlining the steps but my lack of skills has produced much from it.

I'm more interested in getting example 2 (FeatureDataGrid) going or maybe the featuredataform but that is giving me problems also.

1.With the FeatureDataGrid1.Bind a FeatureLayer (not the actual FeatureLayer in my map, though) to the grid but initially have the FeatureLayer as null
2.Do the related records query as before but when I get the results back I set the ObjectId property on my bound FeatureLayer and call Update() on the FeatureLayer
3.To add a record I need to create the Graphics object and first initialize all my Attributes to their default values for the data type
4.Then can add the record to the FeatureLayer and it will show up in the Grid
5.Then you just call Save() on the FeatureLayer
6.For updates the user is editing the graphic so just need a call to save no searching like before

So you first stated to Bind a featurelayer but not the actually feature layer in my map (so not the parent feature layer or the related table featrue layer) so I created a feature layer in my code behind (C#)

FeatureLayer RelateFeatureLayer = new FeatureLayer();
             RelateFeatureLayer = null;

2. Step is where I fall short -

Do the relate records query as before

(check I had that working earlier)

THis is where I lose you:

when I get the results back I set the ObjectId property on my bound FeatureLayer and call Update() on the FeatureLayer

WHere should I do this and how?

If I just try to bind my featuredatagrid to my RelatedTable featurelayer it seems to work except my table is filled with feature geometry attributes like (Geometry, Symbol, Attributes, MapTip, TimeExtent, Selected, etc. ) instead of the attributes of the feature (see attachment)

Thanks again any more help or code would be much appreciated.

You don't need to use the FeatureDataGrid or FeatureDataForm, they do add some nice features to the standard Silverlight toolkit tools. There would be slightly different approaches because with the FeatureDataGid you are bound to the FeatureLayer directly.

Here is how I have done it.

Following the sample here http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#QueryRelatedRecords I get my related records when the user selects the related point
This next steps would depend on which grid you use
With the SL Grid:
Create a collection of some sort of objects that show my attributes (like the Inspection object shown here http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/21714-Editing-Tables-in-Feature-Service-with-Silverlight-4 from my returned set of Graphics
Bind this collection to my data grid
To update an existing feature when the user completes edits to the record I query the graphics collection from the FeatureLayer to find the Graphic with the same OID.
Then make changes to the attributes in this Graphic and call save on the FeatureLayer
So very similar to what he shows but instead of adding to the Graphics collection I query for the Graphic and update its attributes. Also I have found the only way to get the Graphics to load properly in my FeatureLayer is to add the FeatureLayer in Xaml, creating it like in the sample will not load the Graphics collection on the FeatureLayer

With the FeatureDataGrid

Bind a FeatureLayer (not the actual FeatureLayer in my map, though) to the grid but initially have the FeatureLayer as null
Do the related records query as before but when I get the results back I set the ObjectId property on my bound FeatureLayer and call Update() on the FeatureLayer
To add a record I need to create the Graphics object and first initialize all my Attributes to their default values for the data type
Then can add the record to the FeatureLayer and it will show up in the Grid
Then you just call Save() on the FeatureLayer
For updates the user is editing the graphic so just need a call to save no searching like before

I will try and post a code sample for one of the approaches (probably #2) later when I get everything finished

Hope that helps
-Joe
