DataBinder.Eval

[Peppi]

Hi,

If I have the following (simplified) classes:

Resource
---------
Fields - UserID (String), WorkItems (array of WorkItem objects)

WorkItem
---------
Fields - ID (long), Stage (String), StartDate (Date), EndDate (Date)

If I bind my repeater control to a Resource, how do I get at the details for each of the WorkItems? Is it as simple as DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "WorkItems.ID") or is it something more complex than that?

Thx.

If it's a collection of WorkItems, you'll actually want to bind the Repeater to that collection instead of the parent Resource class.

After that, it's a simple matter of calling:

<!-- ASP.NET 1.x -->
DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "ID")

<!-- ASP.NET 2.0 -->
Eval("ID")
