FilterController Members
Represents a ViewController descendant that contains the FullTextSearch and SetFilter Actions.Constructors
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| FilterController() | Creates an instance of the FilterController class. |
Fields
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| ControllerActiveKey static | Specifies one of the keys from the ActionBase.Active collection of a Controller‘s Controller.Actions. By default, this field value is “Controller active”. You can use this field when working with the ActionBase.Active collection. Inherited from Controller. |
| FilterCriteriaName | Returns the name of the item in the Criteria collection of the current List View’s CollectionSource. This item is updated each time a new filter is selected via the FilterController‘s Filter Action. By default, this attribute is called “ListViewFilter”. |
| FullTextSearchActionId | Holds the FilterController.FullTextFilterAction‘s identifier. |
| FullTextSearchCriteriaName | When the FilterController.FullTextFilterAction is used to filter a List View, a criterion is passes to the CollectionSourceBase.Criteria dictionary of the List View’s Collection Source. This dictionary requires that each criterion must be accompanied by a description. The FullTextSearchCriteriaName constant holds a description of criterions passed to the CollectionSourceBase.Criteria dictionary by the FullTextFilterAction. |
| ViewIsAssignedReason static | Specifies the Controller.Active list’s reason that indicates whether a View is assigned to the current ViewController. Inherited from ViewController. |
