I read from a post in the blog said Infragistics is now developing controls in Aikido framework in full power and the development of non-Aikido controls is almost stopped.
I'm thinking of when will the old controls (for example my favorite UltraWebGrid) disappear in the package?
Hi,
I have the same opinion , UltraWebGrid is more stable than webdatagrid.
If a drop some controls on a form:
Ultrawebgrid.
some combobox to do Custom filtering.
a button to do a "filter" (not using uwg control filters but have a parameter for the sqldatasource, so at clientside I change that field (which contains the where clause.
then gridQuarantine.invokeXmlHttpRequest(gridQuarantine.eReqType.Refresh, null, ""); after changeing the filter.
I tried to reproduce this behaviour with wdg putting the grid in an updatepanel.
Because the form can be quite heavy, I found that uwg can just refresh the data in the grid much faster than wdg.
Also, I have forms with unbound data with uwg, is that possible also with wdg, for adding, deleting and updating records which are unbound?
What are your thoughts?
At the moment we don't have any plans to fade out the UltraWebGrid. You can use Aikido and non-Aikido controls side by side depending upon your application requirements.
However, I would love to hear from you the reason why UltraWebGrid is your favirote control, and how we can improve it. Feel free to email me at : murtazaa@infragistics.com
Thanks,
