Installation
BC1298: Silent/console mode - Explicit EULA acceptance is necessary to install DXperience.
With this release, a new mandatory parameter, /EULA:accept, has been introduced. You must accept the End User License Agreement (EULA) to proceed with the installation.
PivotGrid Core
BC1320: Pivot Chart Integration - The type of an object representing a datasource row has been changed.
Previously, the type of a datasource row object was the System.Integer[] value indicating a pivot grid cell's X and Y indexes. In this version, the type of the datasource row object has been changed to DevExpress.XtraPivotGrid.PivotChartDataSourceRow. This class has the following public members:
[C#]
public class PivotChartDataSourceRow {
public int CellX { get ; }
public int CellY { get ; }
public IBindingList DataSource { get; }
public int[] Indexes { get; }
}
The CellX and CellY values are a pivot grid cell's X and Y indexes. The DataSource property is an internal property and provides a chart datasource object that supports the IBindingList interface. The Indexes property value is an integer array of the pivot grid cell's X and Y indexes.
This change was necessary to support the standard ASP.NET data binding mechanism, to make it possible to bind a standard Grid and GridView controls to the pivot grid.
