Problem with CustomFilter example when switching to manual column creation

[Ludovic Gerbault]

Hi

Here's my problem, a while ago, I implemented the search as you type example as is in my grid, which was set using autogenerating columns and a IList<customType> collection, and it was working fine.

Yesterday, I had to switch the autogenerating columns to a manual creation using GridViewDataColumns, and now, the custom filter gives me an error when I type somthing in.

At first, I had a CastException, from string to customType, so I added as many columns as my customType has  attributes (not all of them must be displayed at once all the type, it depends).

After doing that, I have a FormatException, incorrect input format.

Both exception are raised from this line :

return this.compositeFilterDescriptor.CreateFilterExpression(parameterExpression) in the method CreateFilterExpression.

Could you help me fix that issue ?

Never mind, I fixed it. Something to do with the hidden columns on the grid.
