DomainDataSource: New Item not displayed in GridView

[Wolfgang Kamir]

Hi dear forum members,

I am using a telerik:GridView with DomainDataSource and telerik:DataPager.

GridView.ItemsSource and RadDataPager.Source are set to

"{Binding Data, ElementName=TeachersDomainDataSource}"

Everything works fine: Loading Data, Paging... Now when I add a new Item to my ServiceContext like this:

private

 

void AddTeacher(object o)

 

 

{

 

 

  var newTeacher = new Teacher();

  Context.Teachers.Add(newTeacher);

  SelectedTeacher = newTeacher;

  SelectedTeacher.BeginEdit();

}

 

I would like to have it already displayed in the DataGrid (as empty line or probably with defaults later on). Except it is not displayed automatically and I'm not sure why - I would have expected the INotifyCollectionChange to kick in here....

What additional step would I need to take, to have the newly added Item dispay in my GridView?

Thanks for any hint!

Kind regards,
Wolfgang

Hello Wolfgang Kamir,

 RadGridView does not bind to the EntitySet directly, but to the DomainDataSourceView exposed by the Data and DataView properties. The problem is that the DomainDataSourceView does not subscribe to the CollectionChanged event of its underlying EntitySet, so that when you add an item there, it does not show up in the View, and then in the RadGridView. You should work with the DataView property of the DomainDataSource control directly so that the changes are propagated to the RadGridView.
