DevExpress XtraScheduler and BusinessListBase

kdlc posted on Thursday, September 20, 2007

Hi everyone,

I'm having a hell of a time trying to bind a BusinessListBase to the Scheduler Control!!
I've created a table using the structure defined on this KB from DevExpress:
http://www.devexpress.com/Support/Center/KB/p/A2951.aspx?searchtext
After that i'm using CodeSmith to create a EditableRootList + EditableRoot based on the table
but when i do run the application i dont get any appointments on the control, i'm binding the collection to a bindingsource control and the bindingsource control to the Storage Control ... but nothing, nada ... it's driving me nuts!!! any ideas on what i'm doing wrong???

any help would be appreciated it ...

Hope that helps:

private void InitSchedulerStorage(DevExpress.XtraScheduler.SchedulerStorage storage, object appointmentsDataSource, object resourcesDataSource, string id, string caption)
{
FilteredBindingList temporaryProfessionList = Professions.GetTemporaryProfessionList();
storage.Appointments.Labels.Clear();
foreach (Profession prof in temporaryProfessionList)
{
storage.Appointments.Labels.Add(new AppointmentLabel(Color.FromArgb(prof.Color), prof.Name, prof.Name));
}
storage.Appointments.AutoReload = false;
storage.Appointments.ResourceSharing = true;
storage.Appointments.CustomFieldMappings.Add(new DevExpress.XtraScheduler.AppointmentCustomFieldMapping("ObjectUid", "ObjectUid"));
storage.Appointments.CustomFieldMappings.Add(new DevExpress.XtraScheduler.AppointmentCustomFieldMapping("Quantity", "Quantity"));
storage.Appointments.DataSource = appointmentsDataSource;
storage.Appointments.Mappings.AllDay = "AllDay";
storage.Appointments.Mappings.Description = "Descr";
storage.Appointments.Mappings.End = "ToDate";
storage.Appointments.Mappings.Label = "Label";
storage.Appointments.Mappings.Location = "Location";
storage.Appointments.Mappings.RecurrenceInfo = "RecurrenceInfo";
storage.Appointments.Mappings.ReminderInfo = "ReminderInfo";
storage.Appointments.Mappings.ResourceId = "Resource";
storage.Appointments.Mappings.Start = "FromDate";
storage.Appointments.Mappings.Status = "Status";
storage.Appointments.Mappings.Subject = "Subject";
storage.Appointments.Mappings.Type = "ProfessionId";
storage.Appointments.Statuses.Clear();
storage.Appointments.Statuses.Add(new DevExpress.XtraScheduler.AppointmentStatus(DevExpress.XtraScheduler.AppointmentStatusType.Free, System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(((int)(((byte)(0)))), ((int)(((byte)(192)))), ((int)(((byte)(192))))), "По часам", "По &часам"));
storage.Appointments.Statuses.Add(new DevExpress.XtraScheduler.AppointmentStatus(DevExpress.XtraScheduler.AppointmentStatusType.Busy, System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(((int)(((byte)(128)))), ((int)(((byte)(128)))), ((int)(((byte)(255))))), "По дням", "По &дням"));
storage.Appointments.Statuses.Add(new DevExpress.XtraScheduler.AppointmentStatus(DevExpress.XtraScheduler.AppointmentStatusType.Custom, System.Drawing.Color.Fuchsia, "По посещениям", "По &посещениям"));
storage.Appointments.Statuses.Add(new DevExpress.XtraScheduler.AppointmentStatus(DevExpress.XtraScheduler.AppointmentStatusType.Tentative, System.Drawing.Color.Orange, "Сдельно", "&Сдельно"));
storage.Resources.DataSource = resourcesDataSource;
storage.Resources.Mappings.Caption = caption;
storage.Resources.Mappings.Id = id;
}

Just for the record, the problem was the Resources Data source on the Control, if no resources mapped to the control, the control doesnt display any data ... :(

Any chance you would share the basics of this code? I am trying to do the same for our appointment system. DevExpress gives a business object example, but I cannot seem to shoehorn it into the CSLA objects.

Thanks,
