LoadFromXml difference from 2007 Vol.2 (7.2) and 2008 Vol.3 (8.3)
posted

Hi,

Is there a difference between implementation of LoadFromXml from 2007 Vol.2 (7.2) and  2008 Vol.3 (8.3)? I general I am trying to find out any improvements in loading the settings when some schema change have occured.

In my current test,

  • I saved the grid settings
  • Added a new column to the data source
  • Loaded the previous saved setting

In 2007 Vol.2

  • The new column was not visible. NOTE, NewColumnLoadStyle  was  default (Show)
  • The column was not visible in the column chooser
  • In InitializeRow, trying to access the corresponding cell resulted in key not found exception.
  • In short, the new column did not exist.

In 2008 Vol.3, all of the problems did not occur. Also rest of the settings like ColumnOrder, Sorting were correctly persisted.

I am trying to make a case to the manager that 2008 Vol.3 solves number of versioning (schema) problems.

Thanks,
Bhavesh

     It's possible that these issues were addressed by bug fixes between the version of 7.2 that you have as well as 8.3, though I am not aware of any changes in the implementation of the deserialization logic.  The 8.3 version contains any fixes that had been made throughout previous versions.
