Public Properties
 NameDescription
Public PropertyActualCountGets the current actual full count of the items in the data source.  
Public PropertyActualPrimaryKeyGets the current actual primary key of the data source. This may have been auto detected, if possible, or provided or overriden by the user.  
Public PropertyActualSchemaGets the resolved schema for the data source. Represents which properties are available for the items.  
Public PropertyDeferAutoRefreshGets or sets whether the auto refresh mechanism of the data source is currently defered. The data source will not react to most setting changes while this is set to true an will instead defer processing. Setting this value to false will queue a new refresh.  
Public PropertyExecutionContextGets or sets the execution context that the data source should synchronize asynchronous actions with, or use to defer delayed actions.  
Public PropertyFilterExpressionsGets a collection to add filter expressions to. Changing the filter expressions in this collection will adjust the filter applied to the data source.  
Public PropertyFirstVisibleIndexRequestedGets or sets which index consumers of the data source desire to be the current first visible index. A grid, for example, would indicate the current visible top row, and update this as that changes.  
Public PropertyGroupDescriptionsGets a collection to add group descriptions to. Changing the group descriptions in this collection will adjust the grouping applied to the data source.  
Public PropertyIncludeSummaryRowsInSection  
Public PropertyIsFilteringSupportedGets if filtering is supported on the data source.  
Public PropertyIsGroupingSupportedGets whether this datasource supports grouping.  
Public PropertyIsItemIndexLookupSupportedGets whether lookup of an index for a provided item is supported.  
Public PropertyIsKeyIndexLookupSupportedGets whether lookup of an index for a provided primary key value is supported.  
Public PropertyIsSectionCollapsableGets or sets if sections are collapsable.  
Public PropertyIsSectionContentVisibleGets or sets whether content besides the section headers are displayed.  
Public PropertyIsSectionExpandedDefaultGets or sets whether sections default to expanded or collapsed when they are created.  
Public PropertyIsSectionHeaderNormalRowGets or sets whether the section headers are treated as normal rows.  
Public PropertyIsSectionSummaryRowsAtBottom  
Public PropertyIsSortingSupportedGets if sorting is supported on the data source.  
Public PropertyIsVirtualGets if the current data source is a virtual data source.  
Public PropertyLastVisibleIndexRequestedGets or sets which index consumers of the data source desire to be the current last visible index. A grid, for example, would indicate the current visible top row, and update this as that changes.  
Public PropertyNotifyUsingSourceIndexesGets whether, when manually notifying the data source of changes, one should use indexes relative to the actual source data, or relative to the view the data source is maintaining into the data.  
Public PropertyPrimaryKeyGets or sets a list of property references that indicate the user provided primary key of the items in the data source. Consumers of the data source will often need to uniquely identify items in the data source. For this purpose a primary key should be specified.  
Public PropertyPropertiesRequestedGets or sets a list of property references for the properties desired by the consumer of the data source. If known, the data source may take steps to request only those properties, or to ensure that those properties are included, rather than the default behavior for this type of data source.  
Public PropertySectionHeaderDisplayModeGets or sets how section headers are displayed.  
Public PropertyShouldEmitSectionFootersGets or sets whether this datasource should include section footers in its view of the data.  
Public PropertyShouldEmitSectionHeadersGets or sets whether this datasource should include section headers in its view of the data.  
Public PropertyShouldEmitShiftedRowsGets or sets whether this datasource should include shifted rows in its view of the data.  
Public PropertySortDescriptionsGets a collection to add sort descriptions to. Changing the sort descriptions in this collection will adjust the sort applied to the data source.  
Public PropertySummaryDescriptionsGets a collection to add summary descriptions to. Changing the summary descriptions in this collection will adjust the summaries applied to the data source.  
Public PropertySummaryScopeGets or sets the scope which summaries are calculated for.  
Public PropertyUpdateNotifierGets or sets an IDataSourceUpdateNotifier that the data source should invoke methods on to indicate various changes have occurred.
