TreeList.EndUnboundLoad() Method

Forces the control to update itself after the TreeList.BeginUnboundLoad method has been called.

Namespace : DevExpress.XtraTreeList

Assembly : DevExpress.XtraTreeList.v25.2.dll

NuGet Packages : DevExpress.Win.Navigation, DevExpress.Win.TreeList

Declaration

csharp
public virtual void EndUnboundLoad()
vb
Public Overridable Sub

Remarks

Use the EndUnboundLoad method in conjunction with the TreeList.BeginUnboundLoad method.

Example

The following code shows how to manually populate a TreeList control with nodes in unbound mode.

To add nodes in unbound mode, utilize the TreeList.AppendNode method. Data that is passed to this method must match the TreeList columns. So, the TreeList columns are created before the nodes are created.

Note that calls to the methods used to create nodes are wrapped with the TreeList.BeginUnboundLoad and TreeList.EndUnboundLoad methods. This reduces the control’s updates to a minimum, and thus improves performance.

The following image displays the result.

csharp
using DevExpress.XtraTreeList;
using DevExpress.XtraTreeList.Columns;
using DevExpress.XtraTreeList.Nodes;

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
    CreateColumns(treeList1);
    CreateNodes(treeList1);
}

private void CreateColumns(TreeList tl) {
    // Create three columns
    tl.BeginUpdate();
    TreeListColumn col1 = tl.Columns.Add();
    col1.FieldName = "Customer";
    col1.Caption = "Customer";
    col1.VisibleIndex = 0;
    TreeListColumn col2 = tl.Columns.Add();
    col2.FieldName = "Location";
    col2.Caption = "Location";
    col2.VisibleIndex = 1;
    TreeListColumn col3 = tl.Columns.Add();
    col3.FieldName = "Phone";
    col3.Caption = "Phone";
    col3.VisibleIndex = 2;
    tl.EndUpdate();
}

private void CreateNodes(TreeList tl) {
    tl.BeginUnboundLoad();
    // Create a root node
    TreeListNode parentForRootNodes = null;
    TreeListNode rootNode = tl.AppendNode(
        new object[] { "Alfreds Futterkiste", "Germany, Obere Str. 57", "030-0074321" },
        parentForRootNodes);
    // Create a child of the rootNode
    tl.AppendNode(new object[] { "Suyama, Michael", "Obere Str. 55", "030-0074263" }, rootNode);
    // Create more nodes
    // ...
    tl.EndUnboundLoad();
