Data Binding

This demo illustrates how to bind ASPxDataView to a data source. It supports standard data binding and any object which implements the IEnumerable or IDataSource interface (e.g. SqlDataSource, XmlDataSource) may be used as a data source for this control.

In this sample, the ASPxDataView control is bound to the XmlDataSource component that obtains data from an xml file with the following structure.

<Discs>
  <Disc ID="..." Title="..." Year="..." Price="..." />
  ...
</Discs>

The appearance of the ASPxDataView control's data items is defined via an ItemTemplate type template. Controls that compose the template are bound to data by using data binding expressions. (See ASPX code)
