Right-click on RadGridView crashes Expression Blend 3

[Jens]

Hi,

I'm experiencing a problem when using the RadGridView Silverlight component in Expression Blend 3. As soon as I right-click the control in my page (or access the "Object" menu from the menu bar). This happens even in a newly created project with nothing but the main page in it with the grid. Other controls (have tried the menu and ribbon controls) work fine.

When starting the debugger, it leads me to a System.UriException: "Ungültiger URI: Das URI-Format konnte nicht bestimmt werden." (sorry, German version here, probably translates to "Invalid URI: The format of the URI can not be determined.")

Can you help?

Hi Jens,

Service Pack 1 of Telerik's Q3 release of RadControls for Silverlight causes Blend 3 to crash due to an error in the template of RadGridView. This issue is caused by RadGridView only and if you are not using it in your applications you are safe to use those binaries.

If you are using RadGridView, however, you will need to download our latest internal build with the fix for this issue from the link below.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused.

Best wishes,

Hi Kalin,

thanks, that fixes it!

Hello
I took the latest internal build. Blend doesn't crash now. However, i am not able to edit the template for grid header. I am not able to see the inner controls of grid header when i try to edit the template. Could you please help me on this?

Thanks

Hi Anil Kumar,

Could you please open a separate forum post or a support ticket for your issue so as not to get this one flooded. Thank you.

The daily build did not fix the problem for me.  Steps to reproduce the Blend v.3 crash:

1) install (a) MS Expression Blend v.3, (b) Telerik Rad Controls for Silverlight Q3 2009, (c) RIA WCF services beta (non-beta versions are not available; this is necessary for telerik demos to run; vista may also require Windows6.0-KB971030-x86.msu) and (d) daily build RadControls_for_Silverlight_2009_3_1219_Trial.zip per an advice on this thread.

Installs (a), (b) and (c) are done with default settings, the daily build (d) was installed by replacing the contents of the
C:\Program Files\Telerik\RadControls for Silverlight Q3 2009 SP1\Binaries\Silverlight
folder.

2) follow the steps of the "Getting Started" walk-through for Blend v.2 per
ms-help://MS.VSCC.v90/MS.VSIPCC.v90/telerik.windows.controls.silverlight/telerik.windows.controls.gridview/gridview-styling-getting-started.html ("a detailed guide on styling RadGridView by using Expression Blend".), slightly modified for Blend v.3: create a new Silverlight 2 + Web Site app, add references to System.Windows.Control.Data.dll, Telerik.Windows.Controls.dll, Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.dll, Telerik.Windows.Controls.Input.dll and Telerik.Windows.Data.dll, find ReadGridView in controls and move it into a Grid on MainPage.xaml.

3) Start an empty Visual Studio and attach it to the Blend.exe process.  If interested, run procmon and adjust its filters appropriately.

4) Now select the RadGridView control and either (a) right-click on this control in design view or (b) click "Object" in the main menu or (c) an attempt to do what is described in the walk-through: "At the top of the design surface a [RadGridView] button appears.  ... Click on the [RadGridView] button ..." crashes Blend.exe, see stack below.

The uriString that cannot be found (which seems to be causing the crash) is "GridViewRow.xaml" (see the 3rd line in the stack dump below); procmon shows that _all_ XAML files, including GridViewRow.xaml, are attempted to be loaded from below the
C:\Windows\system32\Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView
folder (?), which of course does not exist, for example,
C:\Windows\system32\Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView\themes\office\black\gridviewdatacontrol.xaml
 
The exception is UriFormatException, its message is "Invalid URI: The format of the URI could not be determined.".

Answering my own question: after I installed .NET 4 beta 2, crashes disappeared.  Hey, you guys do wonderful controls, but why on earth can't you document their _prerequisites_, including design ones?

First I had to _guess_ that I need .NET WCF RIA services in order for your demos to run "out-of-the-box", now I _guessed_ that RadGridView is v.4-based.

It may well be ok to base the _design_-related things on some beta (beta 2 in this case), but for goodness sakes, _say_ it.

How about an appropriate message _before_ telerik install runs?  Otherwise some potential clients might choose something _instead_ the install...

Hello Alex Shvedov,

Thank you for your kind words and suggestions. We'll definitely discuss internally the idea of adding such functionality to our installer.

Hristo, checking for dependencies is good, of course, now what about the crash per se?

Is there a set of prerequisites that allows styling RadGridView from within Blend v.3?

Thanks in advance.

[Hristo]

Hello Alex Shvedov,

The initial Blend 3 crash was fixed right after the SP1 with the first latest internal build. After that we are not aware of any certain prerequisites to style the grid in Blend 3. Unfortunately there are some shortcomings to make the styling as smooth as possible but we are working on resolving them. Furthermore we are always happy to help our clients with all issues.

Sincerely yours,
