Command.CanExecute() Method

Determines whether the command can execute in its current state.

Namespace: DevExpress.Utils.Commands

Assembly: DevExpress.Data.v23.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Data

Declaration

public virtual bool CanExecute()

Returns

Type Description
Boolean

true if the command can execute; otherwise, false.

Remarks

UI controls that support commands (such as Bar Items) disable the control if the CanExecute is false. A command will only execute if the CanExecute is true. In case you want to execute an action if the command cannot be executed, use the Command.ForceExecute method instead of the Command.Execute.
