Using base.PerformActionBehavior();
|
|
|
| I have a class file that is tied to a custom action for the CMS Console.
When my users Edit any page in the site and then click the Save & Exit
button a new link shows up in the console (my custom action) called Send
Email/Submit.
So when my uses click this link, a new web page appears with users in a
dropdown list box. My users pick the user from the dropdown that they wish
to send the email to and press submit. The user's email is appended to the
CMS query string Example: chan="m2@myaddress.com"
And the code below is executed.
HOWEVER! While the email piece is working just fine, the Using
base.PerformActionBehavior(); line is not being executed. I know this
because the page status does not change from Saved to Waiting approval. I
was under the impression that if my class inhereited from Submit Action that
this line Using base.PerformActionBehavior(); would do the submitting for
me.
Can someone help me out here?
NOTE: My submitEmail class is dervied from SubmitAction as follows.
public class SubmitEmail : SubmitAction
Many thanks in advance.
Tom
Here is the code
try
{
sQuery = this.Page.Request.QueryString.Get("chan").ToString();
if (sQuery.Length > 10)
{
iPos = sQuery.IndexOf("^d");
sEmailName = sQuery.Substring(0, iPos);
CmsHttpContext cmsContext = CmsHttpContext.Current;
Posting P = cmsContext.Posting;
sUrl = P.Url;
sUrl =
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ServerName"].ToString() + sUrl;
sBody = "<A href=" + sUrl + ">Please approve this
document</a><br>";
sSubject = "A CMS Posting requires your approval";
System.Net.Mail.MailMessage message = new
System.Net.Mail.MailMessage(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["EMailFromAddress"].ToString(), sEmailName, sSubject, sBody);
System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient mailClient = new
System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["EmailServerName"].ToString());
message.IsBodyHtml = true;
mailClient.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
mailClient.Send(message);
cmsContext = null;
base.PerformActionBehavior();
this.Page.Response.Redirect(P.UrlModeUnpublished,true);
}
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
throw (ex);
}

| Hi Tom,
base.PerformActionbehavior will do exactly this.
You did not post the complete code. Does your code live in the
PerformActionBehavior class or somewhere else?
Cheers,
Stefan

| Stefan:
Thanks for helping out here.
Uh, I'm not sure I understand your response.
My code does not live in the base.PerformActionBehavior(); I thought if I
inherited from SubmitAction that I could just call the Re: Using
base.PerformActionBehavior() method. My code all lives in this method of my
SubmitEmail class.
Can you be more specific and possibly send me an example of how I might
accomplish the right solution?
Thanks
Tom

| Hi Tom,
you need to call this method from the PerformActionBehavior method of your
class - not from any other method.
Cheers,
Stefan

| Stefan:
I tried changing my code to this but it still does not change the posting
status to "Waiting approval"
I added this code to my class.
protected override void PerformActionBehavior()
{
base.PerformActionBehavior();
}
And instead of calling base.PerformActionBehavior(); in my custom method I
now call
PerformActionBehavior();
After recompiling and testing it out, I get the email but the page status
does not change.
Please help!
Thanks

| Hi Tom,
something like this:
public class MySubmitAction : SubmitAction
{
...
protected override void PerformActionBehavior()
{
...
base.PerformActionBehavior();
}
...
}
Cheers,
Stefan

| Hi Tom,
stop calling PerformActionBehavior!
That is not necessary.
Cheers,
