Namespace: DevExpress.ExpressApp.Xpo

NuGet Package: DevExpress.ExpressApp.Xpo

Declaration

C#

public bool UseServerSideSorting

VB.NET

Public UseServerSideSorting As Boolean

Field Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true if the sort operation is executed on the server side; false if the sort operation is executed on the client side. The default value equals the DefaultUseServerSideSorting static field’s value.

Remarks

You can specify the UseServerSideSorting field in a List View Controller as demonstrated below:

C#

using DevExpress.ExpressApp;
using DevExpress.ExpressApp.Xpo;
// ...
public class CustomizeListViewController : ViewController<ListView> {
    protected override void OnActivated() {
        base.OnActivated();
        var xpoDataView = View.CollectionSource.Collection as XpoDataView;
        if (xpoDataView != null) {
            xpoDataView.UseServerSideSorting = false;
        }
    }
}

VB.NET

Imports DevExpress.ExpressApp
Imports DevExpress.ExpressApp.Xpo
' ...
Public Class CustomizeListViewController
    Inherits ViewController(Of ListView)
    Protected Overrides Sub OnActivated()
        MyBase.OnActivated()
        Dim xpoDataView As XpoDataView = TryCast(View.CollectionSource.Collection, XpoDataView)
        If xpoDataView IsNot Nothing Then
            xpoDataView.UseServerSideSorting = False
        End If
    End Sub
End Class

If you want to specify this option globally for all List Views, use the static DefaultUseServerSideSorting field instead.

Note

With server-side sorting, you can use only persistent and aliased properties in the Sorting criteria. With client-side sorting, you can also use column names.
