Is it possible to implement my own RadFilterQueryProvider?

[Matthew]

I am looking for an easily parsible RadFilterQueryProvider.  My plan was to create a new subclass of RadFilterQueryProvider that will format the filter expression as xml. 

Is this currently supported by the RadFilter control?
Is there any documentation or guidance on creating a custom RadFilterQueryProvider that I can reference?

[Matthew]

For anyone interested this is pretty easy to do if you look at the source code for the Rad Filter Query Providers.  I have successfully created a provider that has easily parsable sql value terms, but is still in sql format, which will achieve my immediate goals.  If I can find some time, I will implement a solution that outputs an xml fragment and post it here in case it will be useful for anyone in the future.

I have a working provider that produces output in the following format.

<Expression>
  <Group concatenator="AND">
    <Clause>
      <Field>[114709]</Field>
      <Operator><![CDATA[=]]></Operator>
      <Value><![CDATA['YES']]></Value>
    </Clause>
    <Clause>
      <Field>[114711]</Field>
      <Operator><![CDATA[<>]]></Operator>
      <Value><![CDATA['NO']]></Value>
    </Clause>
    <Group concatenator="OR">
      <Clause>
        <Field>[114712]</Field>
        <Operator><![CDATA[=]]></Operator>
        <Value><![CDATA['YES']]></Value>
      </Clause>
      <Clause>
        <Field>[114713]</Field>
        <Operator><![CDATA[BETWEEN]]></Operator>
        <Value><![CDATA[1]]></Value>
        <Value><![CDATA[7]]></Value>
      </Clause>
    </Group>
  </Group>
</Expression>

I'd like to attach the classes that I used to make this happen in case it would be beneficial to anyone else in the future, but I am unsure how to do that.

Hi Matthew

Why don't you just paste it in a message using the format code block option for better formatting.

Thanks,

I want to do something similar for llblgen.

Can you share your code with the community?
Looks like a base for me to start from.

[Matthew]

It's 16 files, so posting the code isn't an option. But I do have a custom provider created for llbl as well.  If you know of a way to attach files, or can get me a way to get the files to you, I'm happy to do so.

just reply to this and at the bottom of the editor is a link "attach your files"

[Matthew]

Unfortunately, it appears I can only upload images.  Which is why I haven't attached it before.

Were you able to email me the code?
