ClientDataString

The ClientDataString property has been removed. The OnClientItemsRequesting event's event arguments should be used instead:

CopyJavaScript

     
function OnClientItemsRequesting(sender, eventArgs)
{    
    //get the context object    
    var context = eventArgs.get_context();    
    //set a value to the context object    
    context["FilterString"] = eventArgs.get_text();  
}

Then, you can access the context object in the WebService method:

CopyC#

IDictionary<string, object> contextDictionary = (IDictionary<string, object>) context;
string txt = contextDictionary["FilterString"].ToStrring();

You can also access the context object in the ItemsRequested event handler using the event arguments:

CopyC#

protected void RadComboBox1_ItemsRequested(object sender, RadComboBoxItemsRequestedEventArgs e)
{    
    string txt = e.Context["FilterString"].ToString();
}

Notes

Properties

ContentFile

Removed: The LoadContentFile method should be used instead.

ExternalCallbackPage

Removed: An external streamer page is no longer needed. The items' population of the RadComboBox should be done via WebService instead.

IsCallBack

Removed: The Page.IsCallBack property should be used instead.

Value

Removed: With the new RadComboBox for ASP.NET AJAX, the SelectedValue property is persisted on the server even when the items are loaded on demand. Therefore, the Value property is no longer needed.

RadComboBoxItemsRequestedEventArgs.ClientDataString

Removed: The RadComboBoxItemsRequestedEventArgs.Context property should be used instead. It returns an object of type IDictionary.
