Remarks
For general information on this method, see RepositoryItemGridLookUpEditBase.GetDisplayValueByKeyValue.
The following notes apply to SearchLookUpEdit, when Instant Feedback Mode (async server mode) is enabled.
In this mode, data is loaded by the control dynamically, in portions. When calling the GetDisplayValueByKeyValueEx method, the requested display value may not be currently loaded. If the value is not loaded, the GetDisplayValueByKeyValueEx method will immediately return a special invalid “Non-loaded Value”. You can check whether the returned value is an invalid “Non-loaded Value” via the static BaseEdit.IsNotLoadedValue method. If the value returned is valid, the BaseEdit.IsNotLoadedValue method will return false.
To always get a valid value, define a method of the DevExpress.Data.OperationCompleted type, and call the GetDisplayValueByKeyValueEx method, passing your OperationCompleted method as the second parameter. Your OperationCompleted method will be called when the corresponding value has been loaded, and is ready for use.
