DABindingList<T>

Overview

The DABindingList class represents the generic collection that supports data binding. The DABindingList class can be bound with datagrid or any other control.
For example:

var lQuery = from emp in linqRemoteDataAdapter.GetTable<Worker>() 
               select emp;
grid.DataSource = lQuery.ToDABindingList();

This code gets the resultset from the Worker class generated by LINQ and binds this resultset with the grid data source.

The DABindingList class also performs automatic tracking of changes in the remote table. To apply changes on the server, the ApplyChanges method can be used.

For creating a new DABindingList instance, we recommend using the ToDABindingList extension method.

An example for the usage of the DABindingList class can be found in the DA LINQ sample.

IgnoreChange  protected

If this property equals true, it ignores all changes with items of the current DABindingList collection, otherwise it applies them.

 

property IgnoreChange: Boolean read write;

 

Boolean IgnoreChange { get; set; }

 

Property IgnoreChange() As Boolean

InsertItem  protected

Inserts a new item into the current DABindingList list. Before insertion, it invokes the SetIdenties method, which sets the new identity for the new item. The new identity will be set only for fields of the types datAutoInc and datLargeAutoInc. If the binding remote table doesn't have autoinc fields, no identity will be set.

void InsertItem(Int32 index, T item)

 

Sub InsertItem(index As Int32, item As T)

Parameters:

  • index: Specified index.
