IObjectSpace.CustomCommitChanges Event

Replaces the default commit logic with a custom one.

Namespace: DevExpress.ExpressApp

Assembly: DevExpress.ExpressApp.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.ExpressApp

Declaration

event EventHandler<HandledEventArgs> CustomCommitChanges

Event Data

The CustomCommitChanges event's data class is HandledEventArgs. The following properties provide information specific to this event:

Property Description
Handled Gets or sets a value that indicates whether the event handler has completely handled the event or whether the system should continue its own processing.

Remarks

The IObjectSpace.CommitChanges method call raises the CustomCommitChanges event. Handle this event to specify custom logic to commit persistent object changes. Set the CompletedEventArgs.Handled parameter to true to indicate that the commit operation is performed.

In the BaseObjectSpace descendant, the BaseObjectSpace.CommitChanges method invokes the BaseObjectSpace.DoCommit method and raises the CustomCommitChanges event. Override the BaseObjectSpace.DoCommit method to implement your logic to persist changes.

The following code shows how to manually save child collection changes made in the parent Detail View:

using DevExpress.ExpressApp;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using YourSolutionName.Module.BusinessObjects;

namespace YourSolutionName.Module.Controllers {
    public class MyViewController : ObjectViewController<DetailView, Parent> {
        List<Child> detailObjectsCache = new List<Child>();
        protected override void OnActivated() {
            base.OnActivated();
            ObjectSpace.CustomCommitChanges += ObjectSpace_CustomCommitChanges;
            ObjectSpace.Committing += ObjectSpace_Committing;
            ObjectSpace.Committed += ObjectSpace_Committed;
            ObjectSpace.Reloaded += ObjectSpace_Reloaded;
        }
        protected override void OnDeactivated() {
            ObjectSpace.CustomCommitChanges -= ObjectSpace_CustomCommitChanges;
            ObjectSpace.Committing -= ObjectSpace_Committing;
            ObjectSpace.Committed -= ObjectSpace_Committed;
            ObjectSpace.Reloaded -= ObjectSpace_Reloaded;
            base.OnDeactivated();
        }
        void ObjectSpace_Reloaded(object sender, EventArgs e) {
            detailObjectsCache.Clear();
        }
        void ObjectSpace_Committed(object sender, EventArgs e) {
            detailObjectsCache.Clear();
        }
        void ObjectSpace_Committing(object sender, CancelEventArgs e) {
            IObjectSpace os = (IObjectSpace)sender;
            for (int i = os.ModifiedObjects.Count - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
                object item = os.ModifiedObjects[i];
                if (typeof(Child).IsAssignableFrom(item.GetType())) {
                    detailObjectsCache.Add(item as Child);
                    os.RemoveFromModifiedObjects(item);
                }
            }
        }
        void ObjectSpace_CustomCommitChanges(object sender, HandledEventArgs e) {
            // Implement custom logic to save Detail objects here. 
            foreach (Child detailObject in detailObjectsCache) {
                //...  
            }
        }
    }
}
