Custom module: sort by custom field

Posted by Community Admin on 29-Jan-2011 00:00

Hello,

I develop a custom module to manage a list of agents. An agent is defined by a lastname, a firstname, an address...

Here is the declaration of the "lastname" field in my model.

[CommonProperty, DataMember, Sortable, UserFriendlyDataType(UserFriendlyDataType.ShortText)]

public string LastName

get

return this.lastName;

set

this.lastName = value;

Here is the definition of my gridview:

var contactsGridView = new MasterGridViewElement(backendContentView.ViewsConfig)

ViewName = ContactsDefinitions.BackendListViewName,

ViewType = typeof(MasterGridView),

AllowPaging = true,

DisplayMode = FieldDisplayMode.Read,

ItemsPerPage = 50,

ResourceClassId = typeof(ContactsResources).Name,

SearchFields = "LastName, FirstName",

SortExpression = "LastName ASC",

Title = "ContactsViewTitle",

WebServiceBaseUrl = "~/Sitefinity/Services/Content/Contacts.svc/"

;

When i go to my page to create a new contact I have a loop javascript alert with this message:

Could not deserialize service response, because it was empty or not a valid JSON.

Do you have any idea of what causes this error?

Thanks

Jocelyn

Hello jocelyn,

Please can you send a sample project with DB to check the problem locally.

Hi Su,

It is clear that problem is with deserialization of web service response, but we need more information about the data that cause this issue at custom implementation.

Can you send us your configuration and database that can give us a clue what is the problem ?

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

Thank you for your reply. I managed to find the issue. I forgot to add entries to the Resources file for my new fields. After that it did work.

Thanks again.
