FlyGrid 1.0.10 and custom collections
Link Posted: 05-Aug-2005 22:50
Greetings,
I use businessObjects and Collections for all our data-binding code. The collection I use inherits CollectionBase and implements the following interfaces:
IBindingList, ICollection, IComponent, IDisposable, IEnumerable, IList, IListSource, ISerializable, ITypedList, IXmlSerializable.
My entity collections are working fine with .NET's own grid (and all the other 3rd party grids I tested).
When I bind FlyGrid to a data-set, the design-time verb  manages to detect the columns in the data-set. When I bind to my EntityCollection and use  the grid does not populate any columns...

Please send us (develop @ 9rays.net) a sample to solve this problem ASAP.

I have e-mailed you an example. Please remeber to change the connection string for the SQL-Northwind database in the project's AppConfig file

As per the advice of the devoloper of the custom collections used in my data-source (LLBLGen.com):
Their grid should call ITypedList's GetItemProperties on the datasource bound, and work with the IBindingList properties for grid behavior like sorting.

They should obey a 'Designer' attribute on the bound datasource as well; as the minimum a 3rd party control should be able to do is what the vanilla MS controls are able to do.


I hope this helps in making FlyGrid more useful for business-objects devolopers.

Yes, we know
Thanks for your help, we've recieved your sample,
It takes some time to correct internal data adapters to work with these interfaces.

Can we expect this in the coming update. If so, then how long should we expect the coming update to be release
