RadDropDownList: StackOverflowException is thrown when setting the SelectedIndex in SelectedIndexChangedEvent

[Maheswari]

Hi Dinko and Team,

As I mentioned in the previous forum, We need fix for Raddropdownlist.SelectedIndex.

When we set SelectedIndex=5 or some value in selectedIndexchangedEvent then the recursive call is happening for SelectedIndex. So we need to restrict the recursive call for both Raddropdownlist.DataSource as well as Raddropdownlist.SelectedIdex.

  private void radDropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.Data.PositionChangedEventArgs e)
        {
           fillIndustryProcess1(); // radDropDownList1.DataSource = dt; when we set Datasource the recursive call is occurring
            radDropDownList1.SelectedIdex = 5; // radDropDownList1.SelectedIdex = 5; when we set Datasource the recursive call is occurring

}

public void fillIndustryProcess1()
        {
            try
            {
                System.Data.DataTable dt = new System.Data.DataTable();
                if (dt.Columns.Count > 0)
                    {
                        dt.Columns.Add("Industry", typeof(string));
                        dt.Columns.Add("ID", typeof(int));
                        dt.Rows.Add("BGL-0", 0);
                        dt.Rows.Add("BGL-1", 1);
                        dt.Rows.Add("BGL-2", 2);
                        dt.Rows.Add("BGL-3", 3);
                        dt.Rows.Add("BGL-4", 4);
                        radDropDownList1.DisplayMember = "Industry";
                        radDropDownList1.ValueMember = "ID";
                    }
                radDropDownList1.DataSource = dt;// Recursive call occurs
                radDropDownList1.SelectedIndex = 0;/ Recursive call occurs
            }
            catch (System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception ex)
            {
                throw ex;
            }
        }

Hi Maheswari,

I notice that the same question is open in multiple threads. Please, to avoid duplication let's continue only in one thread. This way it is easier to track communications.
