Q3 2010 MasterTemplate.Refresh inside EndEdit causes exception

[Matthew]

Hi there,

I have a gridview which i just updated to the 2010 q3 and now I am getting errors every time i try to edit a cell.
It seems that every time I call gridview.MasterTemplate.Refresh() from within the end edit handler, I get an "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error which originates from inside telerik code.

does anyone know why this is happening?

Thanks,
Matt

Hello Mathew,

This happens because of the asynchronous nature of the Grid,
But can i ask why do you need this?

If you just want to refresh the current row, you can just use the following:

void radGridView1_CellEndEdit(object sender, GridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
    e.Row.InvalidateRow();
}

If you have a different purpose for doing this please let me know and i will offer a solution.

Hope this helps, if you have any other questions or comments, please let me know,

Hi Matthew,

Yes, I confirm that there is an exception when calling GridViewTemplate.Refresh method when handling CellEndEdit event. When calling this method, it resets all UI elements in RadGridView and causes the grid to recreate them. I am not sure whether this is an issue. Please describe why you need to call this method when processing the CellEndEdit event. 

You can update the UI by calling the GridTableElement.Update method. Please consider the following code:

this.radGridView1.TableElement.Update(GridUINotifyAction.DataChanged);

I will be glad to help further and I am looking forward to your reply.

Thank you Jack,

That was stopped the error from ocurring.
However, now i'm finding that the selected row is lost after end edit.
I need to click in a cell to re-gain focus...
any ideas?

Nevermind, I've fixed it.

I'm now recording the selected row as the first step in endedit so i can use the GridNavigator to select it later

Thanks for your help with this!
