Hello all,

The behavior of RadGridView is correct in this case. You can read a further clarification below.

RadGridView has row-level and cell-level validation mechanisms. In the case of IDataErrorInfo validation, these are corresponding to the Error and string indexer properties of the interface. These are two separate entities meant for different purposes. You can have valid cell values but the combination of these cell values may result in an invalid row data. Here's an example: two cells, representing a percentage of the same entity, that have each a value of 60%. Individually they have valid values (0-100%) but the sum of 120% is not valid for the row (entity). When either of the properties in the IDataErrorInfo has values it will be displayed in the grid UI. The developer is responsible for the management of the error state for both cell(s) and row in the corresponding ViewModel.

Hello Rashmi,

This behavior is still not planned for fixing. I completely understand that this behavior is causing you trouble, but it will require a major refactoring in the core logic of RadGridView's validating mechanism. I am afraid our roadmap is full for the near future, so this task still resides in our backlog.

Hi Rashmi,

We tried to solve the problem but the fix actually caused some new ones and we had to revert it. This is why the status of this item is Approved. I cannot commit to any specific date or release where this issue will be fixed as its source is in the core logic of RadGridView's validating mechanism.

Please excuse us for the inconvenience caused.

Hi Telerik Team,

Validation messages on error tooltip should get refreshed not only when row is in edit mode but also when the underlying datacontext is changed through the code.
That means any change on a property that grid binds to should also trigger refresh of IDataErrorInfo errors on UI.

Please fix this soon.

Thanks,
Rashmi Singh

Yes, Errors property implementation behavior should be correct and hence please fix this.

There are issues around IDataErrorInfo. We commented the code for 'Errors' property implementation and returned 'null' to avoid multiple messages. This is not a correct behavior.
