Event Data

The StartSorting event's handler receives an argument of the RoutedEventArgs type. The following properties provide information specific to this event:

Property	Description
Handled	Gets or sets a value that indicates the present state of the event handling for a routed event as it travels the route.
OriginalSource	Gets the original reporting source as determined by pure hit testing, before any possible Source adjustment by a parent class.
RoutedEvent	Gets or sets the RoutedEvent associated with this RoutedEventArgs instance.
Source	Gets or sets a reference to the object that raised the event.

Remarks

When sorting data, the grid does the following:

• Raises the GridControl.StartSorting event.
• Sorts data.
• Raises the GridControl.EndSorting event.

Group rows are always sorted. The GridControl.StartSorting and GridControl.EndSorting events are also raised before and after data is grouped.
