Parent Item of the Child Grid

[Levon]

Hi,

I have a hierarchical grid.
So that each row has it's Child Grid. Also I have the functionality of adding new rows to my child grid.
After adding a new row to the child grid, I must save the changes, so I must have the parent object Id.

Of course I can iterate through the ItemsSource, and find the appropriate object, but it's not the best way to do this,
Is there a simpler way to obtain the Parent Item? 

P.S. 
All the modifications are held in ViewModel, and not in xaml.cs.

Thanks, 
Levon

Hi Levon,

In order to achieve your goal, you can use the ParentOfType<T> extension method like so:

private void playersGrid_AddingNewDataItem(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.GridViewAddingNewEventArgs e)
        {
            var parentRow = (sender as RadGridView).ParentOfType<GridViewRow>();
        }

You can check this blog post explaining how to work with the ChildrenOfType<T>() and ParentOfType<T>() extension methods.
