ValidationHelper error

javier saenz asked on September 13, 2016 22:33

Hello
I am working a webpart where I need to get an order id from the url, as Kentico say I'm using this code:
string orderHash = QueryHelper.GetString("o", string.Empty);
orderId = ValidationHelper.GetInteger(WindowHelper.GetItem(orderHash), 0);
But when I try to use that orderId I'm getting this error:

Message: Input string was not in a correct format.
Exception type: System.FormatException Stack Trace: at System.Number.ParseDouble(String value, NumberStyles options, NumberFormatInfo numfmt) at System.String.System.IConvertible.ToDouble(IFormatProvider provider) at System.Convert.ChangeType(Object value, Type conversionType, IFormatProvider provider) at CMS.Ecommerce.SKUInfoSerializer.Convert(XmlData data, String columnName, Type type) at CMS.Ecommerce.InfoSerializer`1.Deserialize(XmlData xmlData) at CMS.Ecommerce.OrderItemInfo.get_OrderItemSKU()

Any idea what could be the error? (I am on kentico9)

That is what Kentico controls use...but are you sending the item to the url correctly?

Here is an example of a link created to allow someone to finish their order at a later date:

Setting URL:

 string orderHash = ShoppingCart.GetHashCode().ToString();
                            WindowHelper.Add(orderHash, oi.OrderID);
                            return "<a href=\"" + paymentPageURL + "?o=" + orderHash + "\">Make Payment</a>";

Retrieving order id:

 string orderHash = QueryHelper.GetString("o", string.Empty);
        orderId = ValidationHelper.GetInteger(WindowHelper.GetItem(orderHash), 0);

Sounds like you aren't adding the hash to the window correctly or something along those lines.

Actually if I print that orderHash I get what it should be, I mean the url slide that I need, the problem seems to be in the WindowHelper.GetItem(orderHash) code
