Hi All. I'm building this app that makes heavy use of grid filters. One of the things a user can do is copy the filters out of a grid and apply them to other grids whenever they choose. I would like to be able to serialize these filters to XML so I can persist them across user sessions.
I would like to know if (and how) a ColumnFilterDescriptor can be serialized and deserialized. If not then please consider adding a couple of methods that lets one accomplish this.
I know about ColumnFilterDescriptor.ToString() - a corresponding ColumnFilterDescriptor.FromString() would be awesome.
Thanks -
Scott

Hi scott,
Currently there is not way to serialized them out-of-the-box. Since each FilterDescriptor has only 5 properties you can write a simple program that stores this in XML and then reads it back. The the MemberType property should probably be serialized as a string containing the fully qualified type name.
I hope this helps.
Kind regards,
