Event on cell editor and Force Data Binding Refresh

[Philippe Marseille]

I have 2 problems with the GridDataBoundGrid.

1st : In my application, when I press the F7 key, I want to call a specific piece of code. So far, I've simply added the call to the key-Up event of all the controls. It works fine except when I'm editing a row in the grid. I suppose the grid creates a Textfield for me to type in and that field does not have the event. In Java, using a JTable, I was able to change the default "cell editor" to add the event. How can I do this in a GridDataBoundGrid?

2nd : When editing a cell, the changes are "commited" back to the data-source only when the focus exits the row. Is there a way to FORCE this update without exiting the row?? From Java again, there was a function called "grid.IsEditing" and "grid.EndEditing"... I'm looking for something similar. It's related to the F7 key too... When I hit F7, I want the DataSource to be updated and editing to end.

Thanks!

Ok

I've found a solution for problem #1. grid.CurrentCell.IsEditing and grid.CurrentCell.EndEdit();

Still trying to catch a key_up event when editing a cell... the KeyPressed event on the current cell (CurrentCell_Key-Pressed) works ok for charaters but not for F7 keys, I need the KeyUp event...

Finally found the solution by myself.

To catch events on the cell editor

GridTextBoxCellRenderer tbr = (GridTextBoxCellRenderer)grid.CellRenderers["TextBox"];

tbr.TextBox.KeyUp += new KeyEventHandler(Handler_KeyUp);


And finally, to force an update of the data (reverse of the refresh): grid.CommitChanges();
