CollectionSourceBase.IsObjectFitForCollection(Object) Method

Tries to determine whether the specified object satisfies the criteria contained in the CollectionSourceBase.Criteria dictionary.

Namespace: DevExpress.ExpressApp

Assembly: DevExpress.ExpressApp.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.ExpressApp

#Declaration

public virtual bool? IsObjectFitForCollection(
    object obj
)

#Parameters

Name Type Description
obj Object

An object that must be checked against the criteria contained in the Criteria dictionary.

#Returns

Type Description
Nullable<Boolean>

true if the specified object satisfies the criteria contained in the Criteria dictionary; false if the object does not satisfies the criteria; null if it cannot be determined.

#Remarks

This method returns a Nullable<Boolean>-type value. So, it can actually return null (Nothing in VB) if the specified object cannot be checked against the criteria contained in the Criteria dictionary.

When implementing a custom Collection Source, override this method to determine whether the specified object satisfies the criteria contained in the Criteria dictionary.

This method is intended for internal use.
