XmlDocument Binding - Need Multi-Level XmlNode Support From RadGridView

[Daniel]

I need to bind this document to the RadGridView and have a child data template for each row where the parametercollection node exists.

The following code (where strXml variable is the xml as string above) doesn't support viewing the parameters inside of parametercollection element.

                  
XmlDataProvider xProviderResource = new XmlDataProvider();
XmlDocument xParameterDoc = new XmlDocument();
xParameterDoc.LoadXml(strXml);      
xProviderResource.IsAsynchronous = false;          
xProviderResource.Document = xParameterDoc;    
xProviderResource.XPath = "MethodInformation/parameters/parameter";  
IEnumerable<XmlNode> iXnodeEnum = xProviderResource.Data as IEnumerable<XmlNode>;
ObservableCollection<XmlNode> obsElementCollection = new ObservableCollection<XmlNode>(iXnodeEnum);
radGridView2.ItemsSource = obsElementCollection;

We have an ID with telerik support. My company purchased both WPF and ASP.NET AJAX controls.  If someone can provide an email address I will send the ID directly to them so I can get a higher priority support.

Hello,

For more complex hierarchical data stored in XAML I would recommend to parse it into dot net objects and feed RadGridView with these objects. To provide the hierarchy each object should expose an IEnumerable Children property to be used for the child GridViews.
I am attaching a small example . Just for the illustration it uses some primitive XML parsing in order to provide the data in a shape consumable form RadGridView.
