Hello,

 We do not have any official .NET 4.5 builds and that is why we cannot support this feature with our current assemblies. We will do our best to provide support for BindingOperations.EnableCollectionSynchronization most probably after our Q3 2012 (Nov - Dec 2012).

Hi there,

I am using the latest internal build 1224, but EnableCollectionSynchronization still doesn't seem to work...

When will this be supported?

Hi,

We have made some test changes in our source code so that when the source collection is updated from another thread as in your case, we will dispatch everything to the UI thread using the UI Thread SynchronizationContext.

I am attaching a sample project with the updated binaries for testing purposes. We took the sample project from here. Can you please check it out and see whether the updated DLL's can successfully fit in your exact scenario. If you send us a small sample project for testing, we would be very grateful. We would like to test the changes that we have made in as many scenarios as possible before checking them in source control.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards,

Hi there,

Your example works, but it doesn't seem to be making use of the new BindingOperations.EnableCollectionSynchronization in .NET 4.5, because it still works when the line is commented out...

Hi,

 Yes we've decided to implement this in a bit different way no matter the framework version. 

All the best,

Hi,

Thanks for the clarification. It is good that it can support .NET 4 and 4.5, but would there be any negative performance impact comparing to the default WPF implementation?

Hi,

 With this approach there will be no negative performance. 

Greetings,

any ideas when this feature will be released?

Hi,

 This is already part of our internal build.

Hi,

when will be the next production release?

Hello,

 The next official release is Q1 2013 (the end of February).

The code in question adds an item to an ObservableCollection<Message> from non-GUI thread. The grid, however, has a following filter:

 

 

Any ideas?

Hello,

There are a few different possible invocation paths when filter descriptors are concerned. This one seems to be related to CompositeFilterDescriptor. I did not manage to reproduce it on my side, but we will try to include a "blind" fix in the next internal build. We won't be able to include in this weeks SP though. Here is the public item in our issue tracking system.

The issue marked as resolved, but I'm getting an exception anyway, this time from a different area. The observable collection is created on the UI Thread but populated in a Task. BindingOperations.EnableCollectionSynchronization is executed on it prior to use:

Hello,

It seems that this is another similar issue. I logged it in our system. I am adding 1000 telerik points to your account. You can track our progress with the issue by following this item.

Both the link to the ticket and the SortDescriptorCollectionExpressionBuilder problem are still broken

Found this: https://feedback.telerik.com/wpf/1354157-gridview-cross-thread-exception-in-queryablecollectionview-sort

I guess this is the ticket. Approved now. When can we expect a resolution?
