Disable editing using dynamic data.

Question

User1204604062 posted

Hello \

There is a special table in which I wouldnt like the user to edit. Just delete or insert.

How can I disable editing using attributes?

 

using System.ComponentModel;
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;

namespace Sodexo.Data
{
    [MetadataType(typeof(ContractAssetMetaData))]
    [DisplayColumn("Contract", "Contract", false)]
    public partial class ContractAsset
    {
        public string AssetName
        {
            get
            {
                return this.Asset.Placa + ' ' + this.Asset;
            }
        }       
    }

    [DisplayName("Activos por Contrato")]
    public class ContractAssetMetaData
    {
        [ScaffoldColumn(false)]
        public object ContractId { get; set; }

        [ScaffoldColumn(false)]
        public object AssetId { get; set; }

        [DisplayName("Activo")]
        public object AssetName { get ; set; }

        [DisplayName("Contrato")]       
        public object Contract{ get; set; }
    }
}

If it's just one table why don't you create a custom page and remove the edit link?  See How To: Create a Read-Only Dynamic Data Web Site and follow the appropriate instructions.

Have alook at Dynamic Data - Hiding Tables on the Default.aspx page near the bottom are some of the advantages of doing it this way.
