NuGet Package : DevExpress.ExpressApp

csharp

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Property, Inherited = true, AllowMultiple = false)]
public sealed class ImmediatePostDataAttribute :
    ModelExportedValueAttribute

Remarks

The following code snippet applies the ImmediatePostData attribute to a business class property. For example, this property allows you to force an update of other values that are calculated based on the current property.

csharp

using DevExpress.Persistent.Base;
// ...
[ImmediatePostData]
public double Rate {
    get {
        //...
    }
    set {
        //...           
    }
}

Impact on Other Properties

When you apply the ImmediatePostData attribute to a business class property, you automatically set the Application Model‘s BOModel | <Class> | OwnMembers | <Member> | ImmediatePostData default property value to true.

Note that you can set or change this property’s value using the Model Editor as shown in the Make a Property Calculable topic.

Any changes to the BOModel | <Class> | OwnMembers | <Member> | ImmediatePostData property value affect the default value of the same property in the following nodes:

Views | <DetailView> | Items | <PropertyEditor> ,
Views | <ListView> | Columns | <Column>.

You can modify the property’s value in the nodes above to, for example, disable ImmediatePostData for certain Views.

These nodes’ ImmediatePostData properties specify the default values for the corresponding PropertyEditor.ImmediatePostData properties.

The diagram below demonstrates different levels where the ImmediatePostData setting can be applied. Higher levels determine default values for lower levels.

Limitations

In Batch edit mode, ImmediatePostData affects properties of the current row only.
