A System.IO.Stream object to which the control’s layout is written.
|
Use the SaveLayoutToStream method to write the TreeList control’s layout to a stream. You can read stored settings from the stream via the TreeList.RestoreLayoutFromStream method.
The Tree List options that are saved are identified by the TreeList.OptionsLayout object.
Tip
You can utilize the Persistence Behavior or Workspace Manager component to save and restore layouts for all supported DevExpress controls at once.
The following sample code saves layout of the Tree List control to a file stream and then restores it. The TreeList.SaveLayoutToStream and TreeList.RestoreLayoutFromStream methods are used for this purpose.
string fileName = "C:\\TreeListLayout";
System.IO.FileStream outFile = new System.IO.FileStream(fileName, System.IO.FileMode.Create);
treeList1.SaveLayoutToStream(outFile);
outFile.Close();
treeList2.DataSource = treeList1.DataSource;
System.IO.FileStream inFile = new System.IO.FileStream(fileName, System.IO.FileMode.Open);
treeList2.RestoreLayoutFromStream(inFile);
inFile.Close();
Dim FileName As String = "C:\TreeListLayout"
Dim OutFile As New System.IO.FileStream(FileName, System.IO.FileMode.Create)
TreeList1.SaveLayoutToStream(OutFile)
OutFile.Close()
TreeList2.DataSource = TreeList1.DataSource
Dim inFile As New System.IO.FileStream(FileName, System.IO.FileMode.Open)
TreeList2.RestoreLayoutFromStream(inFile)
inFile.Close()
