BaseEdit.CausesValidation Property

Gets or sets whether the editor's value is validated before it is accepted. This is a dependency property.

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Editors

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Core.v14.2.dll

#Declaration

public bool CausesValidation { get; set; }

#Property Value

Type Description
Boolean

true to enable the validation; otherwise, false.

#Remarks

If the CausesValidation property is set to false, the BaseEdit.Validate event is suppressed and the editor's value is not validated.

If the editor's validation is enabled, you can manually force it by calling the BaseEdit.DoValidate method.

To specify when the editor should automatically validate its value, use the BaseEdit.ValidateOnEnterKeyPressed and BaseEdit.ValidateOnTextInput properties.
