CreateChildCont rols() when adding controls programmaticall y

Righto, a problem with programmaticall y created controls.

Well, in that kind of area anyway. I'm creating and adding controls to
my page using TemplateControl .LoadControl quite successfully, but I
have a button on my page that adds another control (it's a row of a
table in a timesheet application).

Trouble is, of course, CreateChildCont rols() is called before
AddProject(), which is the method that adds another row to the table. I
could add this row to the table in AddProject(), but that seems to be
moving the logic of creating controls out of the CreateChildCont rols()
method where it belongs; or am I just being pedantic?

Have looked at the page lifecycle documentation in the MSDN stuff, but
there's no real explanation of how to handle this kind of thing.

Any explanations, or preferably links, would be greatly appreciated.

Mark

Hi. I have an HTML page were I load controls dynamically. So I overwrote the CreateChildControl but I found some problem. First time when page is called the CreateChildControl is called after Page::Load But when it's a post back the CreateChildControl is called before Page::Load.

Hi! I'm creating a custom Server Control which implements the method in the subject line (Protected override void CreateChildControls) In here I have the following code: LBL myLbl = new LBL(); myLbl.ID = "MyLbl"; myLbl.Text = objCustomFieldUtil.GetName("custom"); this.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl("<td class=\"regLabelCell\">"));

I believe that when you instantiate a Control derived custom control that implements the virtual method CreateChildControls(), that that base class constructor in Control calls EnsureChildControls() which will invoke CreateChildControls(). Am I correct?

I've found what seems to be a nasty bug in the DataGrid and Repeater classes. If CreateChildControls gets called before LoadViewState, ViewState fails to map and you end up with nothing on a Postback. Please try the following test, and let me know if you can reproduce this: - Create a custom DataGrid or Repeater class that does nothing but derive from one of the above and gives a place to put breakpoints in overriden handlers - Create...

Hi, I'm coding a custom server control, and CreateChildControls() is giving me some pain. I'm just wondering why we have CreateChildControls(), and why this methods seems to be called at different times in the page lifecycle. I mean the order it is called is not deterministic. Example if not post back, then my CreateChildControls() is being executed before my Load event. But for post back, my Load event executes before my...

Tonight's episode of me beating my head bloody against the monitor was the result of ViewState/ControlState information not being available when CreateChildControls() gets called for a CompositeControl. So, my question is, >>why<< isn't ViewState/ControlState available before CreateChildControls() gets called by the Framework? Is it just me, or does it seem really counterintuitive to be creating child controls on postback without the...

I have a base class which overrides CreateChildControls / Render. Inside CreateChildControls, based on a public property ShowLinks in this class, I can include/display a usercontrol (kind of set of links like a menu) A form P inherits this base class. I set the property me.ShowLinks = true on the load event of P. P contains another usercontrol (C) which has a button on it. When I first call P, everything renders fine. First it goes on...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
