PivotGridGroup.GetUniqueValues(Object[]) Method

Returns the unique child values of the specified group value.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraPivotGrid

Assembly: DevExpress.PivotGrid.v19.1.Core.dll

Declaration

C#

public List<object> GetUniqueValues(
    object[] parentValues
)

VB.NET

Public Function GetUniqueValues(
    parentValues As Object()
) As List(Of Object)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
parentValues	Object[]	An array of objects that identifies the group value.

Returns

Type	Description
List<Object>	A collection of the group value‘s child values.

Remarks

The GetUniqueValues method searches for the data source records which contain parentValues values in the corresponding fields, and returns the collection of unique values contained in the child field in the records.

In the PivotGrid control shown below, calling the GetUniqueValues method returns the following collections:

parentValues array	Return collection
1994, Quarter 3	August, September
1994, Quarter 4	October, November, December
1994	Quarter 3, Quarter 4

The following code obtains the unique child values of the ‘1994 - Quarter 4’ group value:

C#

List<object> uniqueChildValues = 
     pivotGridControl1.Groups[0].GetUniqueValues(new object[] {1994, 4});

VB.NET

Dim uniqueChildValues As List(Of Object) = _
     pivotGridControl1.Groups(0).GetUniqueValues(New Object() {1994, 4})

Note

If the PivotGridControl filters data by OLAP member unique names (controlled by the PivotGridFieldOptions.OLAPFilterByUniqueName and PivotGridOptionsOLAP.FilterByUniqueName options), the GetUniqueValues method returns them instead of field values.
