Property Value

Type Description
CollectionSourceDataAccessMode

A CollectionSourceDataAccessMode enumeration value that specifies the mode used to access the Collection Source’s CollectionSourceBase.Collection.

Available values:

Name Description
Client

The entire record set required for the current List View is loaded into memory. All the data processing takes place on the client side.

Server

Data is requested from a data store in small portions that should currently be displayed. All data-aware operations are performed on the data server side.

DataView

A lightweight read-only list of data records (EFDataView or XPView) is retrieved without loading complete persistent objects.

InstantFeedback

A List View’s control continues responding to a user’s actions while the data is being retrieved in a background thread (see Instant Feedback Mode).

Remarks

When you create a Collection Source in code, you can initialize the DataAccessMode property using a constructor with the dataAccessMode parameter. To set this property to the required value in the Model Editor, use the IModelListView.DataAccessMode property of the Views | <ListView> node corresponding to the List View for which the current Collection Source is created.

Detailed descriptions of the available data access modes are provided in the following topics.
