Binder.AddRelation does not work with dataview and untyped dataset

[Administrator]

Hi,
I upgraded from Syncfusion 2.* to 3.0.1.0 and realized, that Binder.AddRelation changed its behavior. It works fine, when grid''s datasource is typed dataset. It always returns NULL, when datasource is untyped dataset or dataview. Any advice or workaround?

Code snippet:

GridHierarchyLevel sectionSetting = this.grdSettings.Binder.AddRelation("SectionSetting");

Can you explain what you mean by an untyped dataset or dataview?

Binder.AddRelations seems to work properly for a custom collection in this sample. \Syncfusion\Essential Suite\3.0.1.0\Windows\Grid.Windows\Samples\DataBound\Hierarchical\Customers\

Whatever IList that "SectionSettings" is in your code, you might have it implement ITypedList also. This will give you the ability to control the contents (through the PropertDescriptorCollection from the ITypedList) of the child grid. Here is a thread with snippets showing how you can implement ITypedList

Untyped dataset is System.Data.DataSet class and dataview is System.Data.DataView class.

But it''s quite strange. I created small test project to demonstrate the bug, but in this project everything works fine.
Maybe there is something wrong in my code, but it worked good with Syncfusion 2.*.

Conclusion - forget about this thread so far, I will try to improve my code or clearly demonstrate the problem.
Thanks.

Just for your info - I solved my problem. I deleted GridDataBoundGrid from my form and then inserted a new one on the form. Now everything works fine.
