There are several ways to retrieve one or more ListItems. Choose an appropriate function given the particular scenario:

Get a specific ListItem by passing its ID to the GetListItem function:

GetListItem(Guid id)

Copy Code

// create a new instance of ListManager Telerik.Lists.ListManager listManager = new Telerik.Lists.ListManager(); // read the second item from the first list IList allLists = listManager.GetLists(); if (allLists.Count > 0) {    // get reference to the first list    Telerik.Lists.INamedList firstList = (Telerik.Lists.INamedList)allLists[0];    if (firstList.Items.Count > 2)    {      // get the ID of the second item - this process is actually redundant, but we      // are using it here for the purpose of demonstration      Guid secondItemId = ((Telerik.Lists.IListItem)firstList.Items[1]).ID;                  // retrieve the ListItem by passing the id to the GetListItem function      Telerik.Lists.IListItem secondItem = listManager.GetListItem(secondItemId);      // write the headline of the secondItem to see the result      Response.Write(secondItem.Headline);    } }

Get all list items belonging to a particular NamedList by passing the ID of the list as an argument:

GetListItems(Guid parentId)

Copy Code

// create a new instance of ListManager Telerik.Lists.ListManager listManager = new Telerik.Lists.ListManager(); // get all lists, so that we can take the first one IList allLists = listManager.GetLists(); if (allLists.Count > 0) {    // get reference to the first list    Telerik.Lists.INamedList firstList = (Telerik.Lists.INamedList)allLists[0];    Guid firstListId = firstList.ID;    // get all the items belonging to the first list by passing the ID of the    // first list to the GetListItems function    IList itemsOfTheFirstList = listManager.GetListItems(firstListId);               // write all the headlines so that we can see the result    foreach (Telerik.Lists.IListItem listItem in itemsOfTheFirstList)        Response.Write(listItem.Headline + "<br />"); }

Get all list items belonging to a particular NamedList by passing the NamedList itself as an argument:

GetListItems(INamedList parent)

Copy Code

// create a new instance of ListManager Telerik.Lists.ListManager listManager = new Telerik.Lists.ListManager(); // get all lists, so that we can take the first one IList allLists = listManager.GetLists(); if (allLists.Count > 0) {    // get reference to the first list    Telerik.Lists.INamedList firstList = (Telerik.Lists.INamedList)allLists[0];    // get all the items belonging to the first list by passing the firstList    // to the GetListItems function    IList itemsOfTheFirstList = listManager.GetListItems(firstList);    // write all the headlines so that we can see the result    foreach (Telerik.Lists.IListItem listItem in itemsOfTheFirstList)        Response.Write(listItem.Headline + "<br />"); }

Get all items belonging to a list by accessing the Items property of the NamedList:

GetLists()

Copy Code

// create a new instance of ListManager Telerik.Lists.ListManager listManager = new Telerik.Lists.ListManager(); // get all lists, so that we can take the first one IList allLists = listManager.GetLists(); if (allLists.Count > 0) {    // get reference to the first list    Telerik.Lists.INamedList firstList = (Telerik.Lists.INamedList)allLists[0];    // write all the headlines so that we can see the result    // notice how we are looping through the Items property of the firstList NamedList    foreach (Telerik.Lists.IListItem listItem in firstList.Items)        Response.Write(listItem.Headline + "<br />"); }
