GridCustomDataSourceCountOptions Class

Contains data for the GridCustomDataSource.GetItemCountAsync and GridDevExtremeDataSource.GetItemCountAsync methods.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.Grid.v26.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor

Declaration

public class GridCustomDataSourceCountOptions :
    GridCustomDataSourceOptions

Remarks

If standard data binding modes do not meet specific business requirements, you can implement your own data provider. To do so, create a GridCustomDataSource descendant and assign it to the Grid or TreeList component’s Data property.

The following code snippet implements a custom data provider’s GetItemCountAsync method:
