Add Calendar List View WebPart to SharePoint page

My custom list have two views (default list view & calendar view) and I would like to display the Calendar view when added to SharePoint page. After spending sometime trying to figure out, I finally find the solution. Hopefully it save you a lot of time. 

Solution

Change XsltListViewWebPart into ListViewWebPart. 

private void AddCalendarViewWebPart(SPFile file, SPList list, string webPartZone, int webPartOrder, Guid viewId)

{

   SPLimitedWebPartManager limitedWebPartManager = file.GetLimitedWebPartManager(System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.PersonalizationScope.Shared);

   ListViewWebPart wp = null;

   list.ParentWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;

 

   try

   {

       // create an instance of the ListViewWebPart

       wp = new ListViewWebPart();

 

       // convert the list GUID to a string, must include braces (ToString("B")) and be in uppers (ToUpper())

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

 

       // optionally set the title of the web part

       wp.Title = list.Title;

       wp.ViewGuid = viewId.ToString("B").ToUpper();

       wp.ChromeType = System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.PartChromeType.None;

 

       // add the web part to the limited web part manager. 

       limitedWebPartManager.AddWebPart(wp, webPartZone, webPartOrder);

 

       // you need to update the list because a view was just added to it

       list.Update();

   }

   finally

   {

       // do some fun cleanup of disposable items.  if you are wondering about the .Web.Dispose() bit look for my

       // blog article on the memory leaks in the SPLimitedWebPartManager.

       if (limitedWebPartManager != null)

       {

           if (limitedWebPartManager.Web != null)

           {

              limitedWebPartManager.Web.Dispose();

           }

 

           limitedWebPartManager.Dispose();

       }

 

       if (wp != null)

       {

           wp.Dispose();

       }

       list.ParentWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;

   }

}
