Creating FlatDataSource from DataTable dynamically and use it in PivotGrid
posted

I am trying to use UltraPivotGrid dynamically from DataTables. I need to create FlatDataSources from these DataTables and use them in PivotGrid. The FlatDataSource is created with data after converting DataTable to list. But when I set the FlatDataSource to PivotGrid, it does not work. Here is the code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Data;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using Company.ClientLibraries;
using Infragistics.Olap.FlatData;
using System.Reflection;
using Infragistics.Olap;
using System.Collections;

DynamicTypeBuilder typeBuilder = new DynamicTypeBuilder

{
DynamicAssemblyName = "MyAssembly",
DynamicTypeName = "Pane"
};

Type dynamicType = null;


private IList GetListFromTable(DataTable table)

{
IList<DynamicTypePropertyInfo> properties = new List<DynamicTypePropertyInfo>();
foreach (DataColumn column in table.Columns)

{
DynamicTypePropertyInfo propertyInfo = new DynamicTypePropertyInfo

{
PropertyName = column.ColumnName,
PropertyType = column.DataType
};
properties.Add(propertyInfo);
}
dynamicType = typeBuilder.GenerateType(properties);
Type listType = typeof(List<>);
Type genericListType = listType.MakeGenericType(dynamicType);
IList list = (IList)Activator.CreateInstance(genericListType);
foreach (DataRow dataRow in table.Rows)
{
object myDynamicInstance = Activator.CreateInstance(dynamicType);
foreach (DataColumn column in table.Columns)

{
PropertyInfo propertyVal = dynamicType.GetProperty(column.ColumnName);
if (dataRow[column] != DBNull.Value)

{

propertyVal.SetValue(myDynamicInstance, dataRow[column], null);

}

}
list.Add(myDynamicInstance);

}
return list;
}


private void LoadPivot()
{
try
{
IList list = null;


list = GetListFromTable(this.dataTable);

if (list != null)
{

FlatDataSourceInitialSettings settings = new FlatDataSourceInitialSettings();
settings.Rows = "CustomerName";
settings.Columns = "ItemName";
settings.Measures = "Total";
this.ultraPivotGrid1.RowHeaderLayout = Infragistics.Win.UltraWinPivotGrid.RowHeaderLayout.Compact;
FlatDataSource ds = new FlatDataSource(
list, dynamicType, settings);

ds.DisplayName = "Orders by ItemName";


this.ultraPivotGrid1.SetDataSource(ds);

}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
#if DEBUG
ErrorHelper.ProcessError(ex);
#endif
}
}
