DataGrid sample in WinFX SDK?

    DataGrid sample in WinFX SDK?

    What happened to the sample of the WPF Datagrid that was on the MSDN
    WinFX site? I downloaded each individual file last week (I started
    directly with Visual Studio 2005 and the November CTP of WinFX, so I
    never got the WinFX beta SDK with its samples). However I may have
    missed a file or two and now the datagrid sample doesn't seem to be
    accessible:
    http://winfx.msdn.microsoft.com/libr...c4c3c559ce.asp



    Any ideas?

    Hi Jason,

    The DataGrid sample has been removed because it was very broken. We're in
    the process of updating it and hope that it will be available again in a
    future release.

    Sorry for any inconvenience,
    Tina

    Thanks Tina, Had it always been broken, or is it only broken now when
    running with the November WinFX CTP? I've downloaded each source file
    and spent a while trying to make it work with no avail. I'm now trying
    to build up my own grid using only the pieces that I need for that
    example.

    Is there a reason why WPF does not come with a DataGrid? This certainly
    couldn't be by design could it? An oversight, or something that just
    hasn't been developed yet?

    Regards,
    Jason

    The DataGrid sample was broken before the Nov CTP.

    A WinForms-like DataGrid is not in our V1 plan for WPF.

    Thanks, and let us know if you have other questions,
    Tina

    Hello Tina,

    Why a WinForms-like DataGrid is not in your plan for WPF 1.0 ?

    For ISV like us, it's a very important component... and it could help us to
    adopt WPF.

    Re: DataGrid sample in WinFX SDK?

    Thanks for your feedback, we've always thought of data grid as an important
    control but it's nice to hear you confirm that thinking. While Microsoft
    doesn't plan to write a data grid in the WPF V1 timeframe, we're working
    with component vendors to ensure a vibrant set a third party components for
    WPF, and we expect that data grids will be among the most popular offerings.
    Infragistics for example announced its DataPresenter for WPF at the PDC (I
    understand they're putting together some form of CTP program for their
    components, might want to contact them if you're interested). We'll also
    keep your feedback in mind when we begin planning future versions of WPF.
    Thanks.

    I would be happy with a ListBox that contains editable items. If this is
    possible, an example showing how to do it would be helpful.

    What do you mean by editable items? You can easily add a TextBox that's
    bound to an item in the ListBox and when the text is changed, the item
    changes.

    I mean embedding ones or more text boxes or other editable controls directly
    in the ListBox item. It seems to work at a crude level, but I'm not clear
    on how to fiddle with the styles so that the selected item's child controls
    look editable while the unselected ones don't. There is also routing the
    events so that the ListBoxItem is selected when one of it's children gets
    focus. There's also tab handling.

    Maybe I'm just to lazy to figure it our on my own and would like to see an
    official example
