Code sample of using ListViewWebPart

How to use UpdatePanel with LVWP in SharePoint 2010 WebPart?

This is example of classic Web Part (i.e. not Visual Web Part) with UpdatePanel and ListViewWebPart put on it.

First assure that you have this using statement:

using System.Web.UI;

and you reference in your project System.Web.Extensions library. Otherwise you won’t be able to use UpdatePanel control.

Here is the sample WebPart class:

[ToolboxItemAttribute(false)]

public class MyWP : System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.WebPart

{

    TextBox txtExample1;

    TextBox txtExample1;

    ListViewWebPart lvwp;

    SPList list;

    UpdatePanel panelMain;

   

    protected override void CreateChildControls()

    {

        panelMain = new UpdatePanel();

        panelMain.UpdateMode = UpdatePanelUpdateMode.Conditional;

        txtExample1 = new TextBox();

        txtExample2 = new TextBox();

        list = SPContext.Current.Web.GetList(SPUrlUtility.CombineUrl(SPContext.Current.Web.Url, "Lists/MyList"));

        lvwp = new ListViewWebPart();

        lvwp.ListName = list.ID.ToString("B").ToUpper();

        lvwp.ViewGuid = list.DefaultView.ID.ToString("B").ToUpper();

        lvwp.ChromeType = PartChromeType.None;

        Controls.Add(new LiteralControl(" Label1: "));

        Controls.Add(txtExample1);

        Controls.Add(new LiteralControl(" Label2: "));

        Controls.Add(txtExample1);

        panelMain.ContentTemplateContainer.Controls.Add(lvwp);

        this.Controls.Add(panelMain);

    }

}

Visual Studion: Install to GAC on Post Build event

In Visual Studio 2012:
"$(FrameworkSDKDir)bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools\gacutil.exe" /i "$(TargetPath)" /f

In Visual Studio 2010:
"$(FrameworkSDKDir)bin\gacutil.exe" /i "$(TargetPath)" /f

Change rendering of the List using XSL

I have a list definition in Visual Studio. Now I want to modify the rendering of the list views using XSL.

First I point my custom xsl file in the XslLink attribute in the list Schema.xml file:

<XslLink Default="TRUE">CustomLibrary.xsl</XslLink>

MailType is a custom column of type Choice and has the following options to choose: In, Out, Other.

I’d like to change two things:

•  the way its values are displayed in the ListView: show icons instead of text
• the column header of the ListView: instead of the default DisplayName, I want custom text “In/Out”

Here is the XSL file:
