DevEx.ComboBoxEdit if change another comboBoxEdit on some condition back to previous value

Fabian R Silva, - — Fri, 20 Apr 2012 16:31:13 GMT

Hello, I have a problem with binding (I suppose)

I have ComboA and ComboB binded to a BO

When I change ComboA value, ComboB can change to another value

The problem is that if I change comboB value, comboA value change to the previus value

//when combo A (uxIdTipoContribuyente) change I have to change combo B (uxIdTipoDocumento) on some condition if needed

private void uxIdTipoContribuyente_SelectedValueChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
SetControlDocumento((int)uxIdTipoContribuyente.SelectedValue);
}

//if I have to change the comboB value, I call a method that change that value to an known value

private void SetControlDocumento(int idTipoContribuyente)
{
// this says me if the comboA value have to change comboB value...
if (BO.Dic.TiposContribuyentesBO.EsCuitObligatorio(idTipoContribuyente)) {
//here I call a user control method that change his combobox control SelectedValue to an known value
documentoControl.SetTipoDocumento(TiposDocumentosEnum.CUIT);
}
}

// Documentcontrol is a inherited strataframe user control with a combo and a textbox... this method change the selected value of the combo

Documentcontrol.SetTipoDocumento (TiposDocumentosEnum tipoDocumentoId)
{
uxIdTipoDocumento.SelectedValue = (int)tipoDocumentoId;
//uxIdTipoDocumento.EditValue = tipoDocumentoId.ToString();
}

// The problem is that when SelectedValue on uxIdtipoDocumento is called, the BO's strataframe businesslayer call the event CurrentView_ListChanged that have this code:
If (Not Me._AreChangedEventsPaused)    Then loDelegate.Invoke(Me.GetPropertyDescriptor(e.PropertyDescriptor.Name), EventArgs.Empty) ...
// this code seems to refresh the value of the datasource and I loose the value that I setted on the combobox A
I have to do it at BO level? to do this I have to set BO's properties on BOM "Property changing events" to single for all / unique for each property and alter values here? or I have to control the "ChangedEventPaused"? (can I?) 
thanks in advance for the help that can bring to me on this problem

Thank you so much, I will refactor my code and go on the BOM single event way. thanks again for the response.

Hi Fabian,

I would go and handle this on the BO events instead of the UI if possible. I use the BOM Property Single Event and handle that with a Select Case and update the BO properties instead of the controls in the UI, by updating the BO properties, the UI controls would be updated automatically.

Same result using IndexChanged or ValueChanged

the sequence of events firing on this comboboxedit control are:

uxIdTipoContribuyente_editvaluechanged --> here I think that not binding still ocurrs (not 100% sure but if I remember I not use this because can give me the old value on the bo "comboBOBusinessObject.bindingfieldOfThisCombo"

uxIdTipoContribuyente_SelectedIndexChanged

uxIdTipoContribuyente_SelectedValueChanged

index and value changed cause same effect, I not sure if using "changing" intead of "changed" can be a solution :(

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I go with the PauseChangedEvent way... had never heard of that property before but I tested it and seems to works, edited ok, saved ok...
I can have future problems using this PauseChangedEvent property, what cares I have to keep present when pausing changed events?
Can I do this change of a property from another property at BO level?(enabling changed properties for this BO)? it's better because it keep defaults/validate logic separately from the UI?
thanks!

Code that seems to works:
------------------------
public void SetTipoDocumento (TiposDocumentosEnum tipoDocumentoId)
{
((BusinessLayer)BusinessObject).PauseChangedEvents();
uxIdTipoDocumento.SelectedValue = (int)tipoDocumentoId;
((BusinessLayer)BusinessObject).ResumeChangedEvents();
}

Hi Fabian.

Have you tried using the IndexValueChanged event instead?
