User Control Inside Repeater

Question

I have a UserControl inside a repeater. The repeater\'s datasource is from SQL Server.

User Control\'s .cs - MoviePanel.ascx.cs:

---

public int m

Your code is working fine; I tested it (see the bottom of the page). The worst case you can try assigning those value inside ItemDataBound event.

    
        
    


public class Movie
{
    public int MovieID { get; set; }
    public string MovieName { get; set; }
    public string MovieDescription { get; set; }
}

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (!IsPostBack)
    {
        Repeater1.DataSource = new List
        {
            new Movie {MovieID = 1, MovieName = "One", MovieDescription = "One hundred"},
            new Movie {MovieID = 2, MovieName = "Two", MovieDescription = "Two hundreds"},
            new Movie {MovieID= 3, MovieName = "Three", MovieDescription = "Three hundreds"},
        };
        Repeater1.DataBind();
    }
}

protected void Repeater1_ItemDataBound(object sender, RepeaterItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Item ||
        e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.AlternatingItem)
    {
        var movie = e.Item.DataItem as Movie;

        var control = e.Item.FindControl("MovieDetailPanel1") as MoviePanel;
        control.myMovieID = movie.MovieID;
        control.myMovieDescription = movie.MovieDescription;
        control.myMovieName = movie.MovieName;
    }
}

Here is how I test your original question

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="WebForm1.aspx.cs" Inherits="WebDemo.WebForm1" %>

<%@ Register src="MoviePanel.ascx" tagname="MoviePanel" tagprefix="uc1" %>





    


    

        
            
                
            
        
    




namespace WebDemo
{
    public partial class WebForm1 : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        public class Movie
        {
            public int MovieID { get; set; }
            public string MovieName { get; set; }
            public string MovieDescription { get; set; }
        }

        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (!IsPostBack)
            {
                Repeater1.DataSource = new List
                {
                    new Movie {MovieID = 1, MovieName = "One", MovieDescription = "One hundred"},
                    new Movie {MovieID = 2, MovieName = "Two", MovieDescription = "Two hundreds"},
                    new Movie {MovieID= 3, MovieName = "Three", MovieDescription = "Three hundreds"},
                };
                Repeater1.DataBind();
            }
        }
    }
}

<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true"
    CodeBehind="MoviePanel.ascx.cs" Inherits="WebDemo.MoviePanel" %>


    Inside Control:
    
    
    


namespace WebDemo
{
    public partial class MoviePanel : System.Web.UI.UserControl
    {
        public int myMovieID { get; set; }
        public string myMovieName { get; set; }
        public string myMovieDescription { get; set; }

        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            MovieIDLbl.Text = myMovieID.ToString();
            MovieNameLbl.Text = myMovieName;
            DescriptionLbl.Text = myMovieDescription;
        }
    }
}
