PivotGridControl.OlapSortUsingDiscoverXmlMetadata Property

Gets or sets whether the PivotGrid uses the OrderBy attribute obtained from the OLAP server to sort data.

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.PivotGrid

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.PivotGrid.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.PivotGrid

Declaration

C#

public bool OlapSortUsingDiscoverXmlMetadata { get; set; }

VB.NET

Public Property OlapSortUsingDiscoverXmlMetadata As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	True, to support the OLAP server’s OrderBy attribute; otherwise, false.

Remarks

If the SortUsingDiscoverXmlMetadata is set to true, the Pivot Grid sends a special DISCOVER_XML_METADATA request to get an actual attribute value and use this information to sort data.

This is not the default behavior because of backward compatibility. However, you should enable it to support the OLAP server’s OrderBy attribute.
