I talked to Trent about it to come up to speed (I've never had occasion to use that override myself), and he mentioned that it was recently updated:
''' <summary> ''' Changed 3/8/2010 for forum post http://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost26315.aspx. The issue was that a clean up property ''' had been added between 1.6 and 1.7 to clean up memory as DevExpress grids (amongst others) would not automatically call the ''' Dispose of the enumerator, creating memory leaks. However, on the web side of things, this caused the shared data table ''' to be destroyed before it was ever used. So the autoDisposeSourceAfterUse param was added so that each environmental ''' BBS could set this explicitly. As of 3/8/2010, the only place that set the second parm as False was the WebBusinessBindingSourceView ''' so that DevExpress web grids would work. ''' </summary> <EditorBrowsable(EditorBrowsableState.Never)> _ Public Function GetEnumerable(ByVal separateInstances As Boolean, ByVal autoDisposeSourceAfterUse As Boolean) As IEnumerable If separateInstances Then '-- Create a new business binding source that will be disposed after use Dim bbs As New BusinessBindingSource(autoDisposeSourceAfterUse) bbs.BusinessObject = Me Return bbs Else Return Me.GetEnumerable() End If End Function
