this is how my data gridview is filled:
using (MySqlDataAdapter a = new MySqlDataAdapter(query, conn))
{
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
a.FillAsync(dt);
dataGridView1.ItemsSource = dt.DefaultView;
}
now i used to filter my data-grid view in winforms this way:
string rowFilter = string.Format("[{0}] LIKE '%{1}%'", "full name", pattern);
(dataGridView1.DataSource as DataTable).DefaultView.RowFilter = rowFilter;
here is the wpf version of it which does not work
string rowFilter = string.Format("[{0}] LIKE '%{1}%'", "full name", pattern);
((DataView)dataGridView1.ItemsSource).ToTable().DefaultView.RowFilter = rowFilter;
the above wpf version code runs ok but it doesn't filter the gridview instead it passes over it (the code ) like nothing happened?
at last How can i filter my wpf datagridview?
P.S: i am both new and not good when it comes to xaml and that's why i prefer c# code solutions.
Thank God ... i just found the solution!!!
string rowFilter = string.Format("[{0}] LIKE '%{1}%'", "full name", pattern);
((DataView)dataGridView1.ItemsSource).RowFilter = rowFilter;
i was using the DefaultView.RowFilter which does not work when instead i should've used the DataView.RowFilter (Works like charm).
and for anyone new on row filtering here is what i consider row filter cheat sheet.
