All assigned ColumnEdits are removed when TreeList.ExternalRepository is assigned

created 10 years ago

I do assign an external repository to a TreeList, e.g. within the constructor of a form:
InitializeComponent();treeList1.ForceInitialize();treeList1.ExternalRepository = _mainForm.persistentRepository;
However, when doing so ALL assigned ColumnEdits are lost and set to NULL !!
Meaning all column edits which have been assigned using the internal repository are gone!

This is again a terrible bug, as assigning an external repository should not remove all assigned internal repositories which e.g. have been assigned at design time!
Both repositories should be used in parallel., as stated in the docs!

I need a really quick fix for this!

THX
Bernd

        Hello Bernd,
        I understand your frustration since the intended behavior does not work as you expect. I tested this with version 14.2.4 of our components and was able to reproduce described behavior. I agree with you that this behavior seems incorrect. I passed this ticket to our developers for further investigation. We will notify you about our results as soon as possible.

          Hi, does the fix apply for the XtraVerticalGrid too? We are having the same issue with the property grid control in 12.2.16 and would like to know, if the problem is fixed in the latest release.

            Hello Tobias,
            To avoid mixing several questions in one thread, I've created a separate ticket on your behalf: VGridControl - All assigned RepositoryItems are removed when VGridControl.ExternalRepository is assigned. I will address it shortly.
