Syntax
<CategoryAttribute("Columns")>
Public Property SortDescriptors As SortDescriptorCollection
Dim instance As UXGridView
Dim value As SortDescriptorCollection
 
instance.SortDescriptors = value
 
value = instance.SortDescriptors
[CategoryAttribute("Columns")]
public SortDescriptorCollection SortDescriptors {get; set;}
[CategoryAttribute("Columns")]

   SortDescriptorCollection^ get();
   void set (    SortDescriptorCollection^ value);
}
Remarks

Server data operation means that the data operation, such as sorting, filtering and paging; are processed in the server side. In this mode, UXGridView does not handle the data operation by its own. It will simply provide the query information allowing you to process it further to a data service.

To use this mode, you set the QueryOperation property to Server. When this mode is selected, UXGridView will not attempt to perform the data operation on the given data source. Instead, it will store and distribute the query information on several properties such as FilterDescriptors, SortDescriptors and PageDescriptor property. When one of these properties change, the QueryChanged event of the associated QueryDescriptor will be raised. This allows you to streamline the query processing in a centralized function, which is one of the strong benefits of QueryDescriptor. For more information about QueryDescriptor, see QueryDescriptor Overview.

To learn how to perform server-side sorting, filtering and paging using UXGridView, see How-to: Implement Server-side Sorting, Filtering and Paging using UXGridView.
