DevAge Source Pack - Beta 1
DevAge's SourceGrid 2.0
is a great control - full featured, extensible, and some advanced features like
virtualization and compact framework support. Unlike many Winform controls, this
isn't just a .NET wrapper over a Windows Common Control - it's a new control,
written entirely in C#.
Also nice - it's free, and source code is included.
I've been using it for a few months, so I was very happy to see (via the DevAge feed) the DevAge
Source Pack Beta 1, including Source Grid 3.
Documentation is a little light (although very good for a Beta 1), but the
sample code is very helpful. The Source Pack includes some other goodies, like
themeing support and typed textboxes. I've used it since it was announced, and
it's been working really well. I've been using virtualized grids to enhance
performance and minimize memory use. Under Source Grid 2, virtual
grids supported a subset of the "real" grid's features' under Source Grid, it's an equal
citizen. The new object model uses and adapted MVC pattern -
it took a little getting used to, but it's very powerful.
Here's a look at what you can do with it:
