Sorting on the data source level

Question

I have a large, custom data source and I need sorting and paging which both work on the data source level in GridDataControl.

I started from implementing IPagedCollectionView and paging worked perfectly. Next I also derived my custom collection from ICollectionViewAdv to support sorting, but grid was not using my implementation of ICollectionViewAdv and instead was always simply getting SourceCollection property and wrapping with its CollectionViewAdv class, which performs sorting on its own.

Is the above scenario supported in GridDataControl at all? Thanks in advance for help.

Hi Arkadiusz,

Thank you for your update, It would be great if you provide more details about your custom implementation of CollectionViewAdv to support sorting. If possible, could you please provide the sample to replicate the issue, that would very helpful to serve you better.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
