[Solved] Futures Build: Filterexpression Exception

[Philip]

Hi,

I tried following Code in the new Futures Release of Prometheus:

var filter = "([Subject] LIKE \'%Test%\')";
RadGridMessages.MasterTableView.FilterExpression = filter;
RadGridMessages.MasterTableView.Rebind();

When Rebind() is reached, following Exception is thrown: "Expression expected".
If I leave out the [] the Exception " ')' or operator expected" is thrown.

This error occures only with the new Futures Build. The code works almost the same manner as the documentation and the demo.

Can you help me?
Thank you und with kind regards,

Philip

Hello Philip,

The 3.5 build of Telerik.Web.UI.RadGrid now support native LINQ expressions by default and you can use:

"it[Subject].ToString().Contains("Test")"

instead. Other possible solution is to set EnableLinqExpression to false for the grid and use ADO.NET like filter expressions.

Kind regards,

Thank you. That works. I just didn't find it in the documentation/demos.
