WG7 Client Side Binding in Hierarchical Mode

technical@intersoftpt.com — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 03:56:15 GMT

Hello Scott,

The Client Binding in v7 is strongly focused on flat table with support on all existing databound features such as sorting, grouping, filtering, and so on -- as well as data service support in native JSON format.

As Glenn pointed out, the hierarchical tables are unsupported in this version. We'll support hierarchical tables and more features in the next version.

Let me know if you have other questions, or feedback. Thanks!

In the current release of WebGrid there is some feature which has not been supported and unfortunately HierarchicalGrid in ClientBinding is one of them. This feature is planned for future release of WebGrid.

Quoting from the WebGrid whitepaper:

The following features are not supported in version 7, although the architecture has been properly designed to support implementation for those features in the next version:

Hierarchical Grid (Child Tables)

Self Referencing

The full feature and limitations of WebGrid client binding feature could be read in WebGrid Whitepaper under the subtitle Supported Features and Limitations

Hello,

Do any samples exists using this scenario? We have a grid that uses a parent and child table. In the past we have used the standard server side binding and child rows have loaded using HierarchicalMode="Preload" or HierarchicalMode="LoadOnDemand" without any problems. Now we are moving to client side binding and the child rows do not load using either method. We're looking for any tips/tutorials/samples for this scenario so we can move forward with our conversion.

Thanks,
Scott French
