A command that allows you to get unique values.

|

Remarks

Bind a command to the GetUniqueValuesCommand property to maintain a clean MVVM pattern. The command works like a InfiniteAsyncSource.GetUniqueValues event handler and allows you to process unique values in a ViewModel.

You can obtain unique values from a data source field to show them in a column’s drop-down filter. To do this, follow the steps below:

1. Create a GetUniqueValues command.
2. Use the PropertyName property to get the field name for which the GridControl collects unique values.
3. Get a list of unique values and assign it to the Result property.
4. Bind the command to the InfiniteAsyncSource.GetUniqueValuesCommand / PagedAsyncSource.GetUniqueValuesCommand property.

• IssueServiceViewModel.cs

[Command]
public void GetUniqueValues(GetUniqueValuesAsyncArgs args) {
    if(args.PropertyName == "Priority") {
        var values = Enum.GetValues(typeof(Priority)).Cast<object>().ToArray();
        args.Result = Task.FromResult(values);
    } else {
        throw new InvalidOperationException();
    }
}
