bind radgrid to enum datasource

[Robert Jakech]

Hi I have an enum method as follows

 public enum UserType

        {

            Default = 1,             

            Parameters = 2,

            Students = 3,

            Marks = 4,

            

  }

I need to bind enum values to a radgrid so that i have a display as follows

NAME             VALUES

Default              1

Parameters       2

Students           3

Marks               4

Please someone help me with the code snippets.

thanks.

Hi Robert,

To archive the desired functionality please try the following code snippet:

void RadGrid1_NeedDataSource(object source, GridNeedDataSourceEventArgs e)
{
    UserType type = new UserType();
    DataTable table = new DataTable();
    table.Columns.Add("Name");
    table.Columns.Add("Values");
    foreach (int i in Enum.GetValues(typeof(UserType)))
    {
        UserType parsedEnumValue = (UserType)Enum.Parse(typeof(UserType), i.ToString());
        table.Rows.Add(parsedEnumValue.ToString(), i.ToString());
    }

    RadGrid1.DataSource = table;
}

Additionally I am sending you a simple example which demonstrates the desired functionality. Please check it out and let me know if it helps you.

All the best,
