How to clone an UltraGridRow (Infragistics)?

Question

Hello,

I would like to clone a UltraGridRow into a new instance of UltraGridRow and change two cells only. Then I would like to add this new UltraGridRow instance to my Band.

I am seeking a way to not have to go through each Cell one by one to copy them into the new instance.

Is there any intelligent and effective way to do this?

Many Thanks, Kave

The UltraGridRow has a CopyFrom method that should do the trick (documentation). Here's a test for your scenario:

[Test]
public void CloneRowCellsTest()
{
  UltraGridRow objSource = new UltraGridRow();
  objSource.Cells.Add(new UltraGridCell("Original value for cell 0"));
  objSource.Cells.Add(new UltraGridCell("Original value for cell 1"));

  UltraGridRow objDestination = new UltraGridRow();
  objDestination.CopyFrom(objSource);
  objDestination.Cells[1].Value = "New value for cell 1";

  Assert.AreEqual(objSource.Cells.Count, objDestination.Cells.Count);
  Assert.AreEqual("Original value for cell 0", objDestination.Cells[0].Value);  //Ensure that the value was copied
  Assert.AreEqual("New value for cell 1", objDestination.Cells[1].Value);       //Ensure that the new value was set
  Assert.AreEqual("Original value for cell 1", objSource.Cells[1].Value);       //Ensure that the original was unchanged
}
