BarItem.DataBindings property is null?

[Julien Chevalley]

Hi,

I want to databind the "Enabled" property of my bar items.

Unfortunately, BarItem.DataBindings property is null (after form creation, in the form's OnLoad event).

So, how do I use data binding with BarItem?

Hi Julien,

Thank you for using Syncfusion products.

DataBindings property of BarItem is not working properly and this issue is suspected to be a defect. We have forwarded this to our Development Team for further analysis and will update you with our Development Team’s response in two business days.

Hi,

I regret for the inconvenience in the delay in getting back to you on this issue.

On further analysis, the BarItem's DataBinding property is refrenced to the DataBindings property of the Form that is containing this BarItem. So, when you affect this with the properties, this will affect the Form's properties by design. I regret for the inconvenience with the incomplete documentation and this has been fixed for the upcoming weekly development build.

Change:
The documentation for this has been changed from 'Lets you data-bind certain properties of the BarItem.' to 'Lets you data-bind certain properties of the Form containing the MainFrameBarManager of this BarItem.'.

Hi,

Thank you for your reply.

Does this mean that there is no way to bind BarItem.Enabled to a datasource?

This seems like a really bad and unnecessary limitation.

I regret for the inconvenience. We have filed a feature request on the same and we will fix this in the upcoming versions.
