Creating a group-configuration selector

The following example demonstrates how to create a custom group-configuration selector that will return the appropriate group configuration depending on the number of items in a group. The implementation of the ItemCountGroupConfigurationSelector is provided below.

XAML	Copy Code
<Grid xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid"> <Grid.Resources> <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource x:Key="cvs_orders" Source="{Binding Source={x:Static Application.Current}, Path=Orders}"> <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource.GroupDescriptions> <xcdg:DataGridGroupDescription PropertyName="ShipCity" /> </xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource.GroupDescriptions> </xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource> </Grid.Resources> <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="OrdersGrid" ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource cvs_orders}}"> <xcdg:DataGridControl.GroupConfigurationSelector> <local:ItemCountGroupConfigurationSelector MinItemCount="10" /> </xcdg:DataGridControl.GroupConfigurationSelector> </xcdg:DataGridControl> </Grid>

VB.NET	Copy Code
Dim collectionView As New DataGridCollectionView( Orders ) collectionView.GroupDescriptions.Add( New DataGridGroupDescription( "ShipCity" ) ) dataGridControl.GroupConfigurationSelector = New ItemCountGroupConfigurationSelector( 10 ) dataGridControl.ItemsSource = collectionView

VB.NET

Copy Code

Dim collectionView As New DataGridCollectionView( Orders )
collectionView.GroupDescriptions.Add( New DataGridGroupDescription( "ShipCity" ) )
dataGridControl.GroupConfigurationSelector = New ItemCountGroupConfigurationSelector( 10 )
dataGridControl.ItemsSource = collectionView

C#	Copy Code
DataGridCollectionView collectionView = new DataGridCollectionView( Orders ); collectionView.GroupDescriptions.Add( new DataGridGroupDescription( "ShipCity" ) ); dataGridControl.GroupConfigurationSelector = new ItemCountGroupConfigurationSelector( 10 ); dataGridControl.ItemsSource = collectionView;

Copy Code

DataGridCollectionView collectionView = new DataGridCollectionView( Orders );      
collectionView.GroupDescriptions.Add( new DataGridGroupDescription( "ShipCity" ) );
dataGridControl.GroupConfigurationSelector = new ItemCountGroupConfigurationSelector( 10 );
dataGridControl.ItemsSource = collectionView;

The following code provides the implementation of the ItemCountGroupConfigurationSelector.
