ASPxGridBase.ForceDataRowType(Type) Method

Informs the grid control about the type of objects contained within its data source.

Namespace: DevExpress.Web

Assembly: DevExpress.Web.v18.2.dll

Declaration

C#

public void ForceDataRowType(
    Type type
)

VB.NET

Public Sub ForceDataRowType(
    type As Type
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
type	Type	The type of data source records.

Remarks

If the grid’s data source is not empty on the first load, the grid automatically determines and saves the type of objects contained within its data source, so you do not have to force the type of objects contained within its data source.

If the grid’s data source is empty (e.g., because of an invalid filter expression or empty data base) on the first load, use the ForceDataRowType method to inform the ASPxGridView control about the types of its columns.

C#

protected void ASPxGridView1_Init(object sender, EventArgs e) {
    ASPxGridView1.ForceDataRowType(typeof(MyDataObject));
}
