Properties

isUpdating

isUpdating: boolean

Gets a value that indicates whether notifications are currently suspended (see beginUpdate and endUpdate).

length

length: number

Gets or sets the length of the array. This is a number one higher than the highest element defined in an array.

owner

owner: FlexGrid | ColumnGroup | null

Gets the FlexGrid or ColumnGroup that owns this collection.

Methods

beginUpdate

  • beginUpdate(): void

clear

  • clear(): void

concat

  • Combines two or more arrays.

    Parameters

    • Rest ...items: ConcatArray<ColumnGroup>[]

      Additional items to add to the end of array1.

    Returns ColumnGroup[]

  • Combines two or more arrays.

    Parameters

    • Rest ...items: (T | ConcatArray<T>)[]

      Additional items to add to the end of array1.

    Returns ColumnGroup[]

deferUpdate

  • deferUpdate(fn: Function): void

  • Executes a function within a beginUpdate/endUpdate block.

    The collection will not be refreshed until the function finishes. This method ensures endUpdate is called even if the function throws an exception.

    Parameters

    • fn: Function

      Function to be executed without updates.

    Returns void

endUpdate

  • endUpdate(isSilent?: boolean): void

  • Resumes notifications suspended by a call to beginUpdate.

    Parameters

    • Optional isSilent: boolean

      whether to end update silently i.e without raising collectionChanged event

    Returns void

every

  • every(callbackfn: Object, thisArg?: any): boolean

  • Determines whether all the members of an array satisfy the specified test.

    Parameters

    • callbackfn: Object

    • Optional thisArg: any

      An object to which the this keyword can refer in the callbackfn function. If thisArg is omitted, undefined is used as the this value.

    Returns boolean

filter

  • filter<S>(callbackfn: Object, thisArg?: any): S[]
  • filter(callbackfn: Object, thisArg?: any): ColumnGroup[]

  • Returns the elements of an array that meet the condition specified in a callback function.

    Type parameters

    Parameters

      A function that accepts up to three arguments. The filter method calls the callbackfn function one time for each element in the array.

    • Optional thisArg: any

      An object to which the this keyword can refer in the callbackfn function. If thisArg is omitted, undefined is used as the this value.

    Returns S[]

  • Returns the elements of an array that meet the condition specified in a callback function.

    Parameters

    • callbackfn: Object

      A function that accepts up to three arguments. The filter method calls the callbackfn function one time for each element in the array.

    • Optional thisArg: any

      An object to which the this keyword can refer in the callbackfn function. If thisArg is omitted, undefined is used as the this value.

    Returns ColumnGroup[]

forEach

  • forEach(callbackfn: Object, thisArg?: any): void

  • Performs the specified action for each element in an array.

    Parameters

    • callbackfn: Object

      A function that accepts up to three arguments. forEach calls the callbackfn function one time for each element in the array.

    • Optional thisArg: any

      An object to which the this keyword can refer in the callbackfn function. If thisArg is omitted, undefined is used as the this value.

    Returns void

getColumn

  • Gets a column group by name, binding, or index.

    If name parameter is of number type, the method returns the child column group by index. If name parameter is of string type, the method searches the column group by name. If a column with the given name is not found, it searches by binding. The searches are case-sensitive.

    Parameters

    • name: string | number

      The name, binding, or index to find.

    Returns ColumnGroup

    The column group with the specified name, binding or index, or null if not found.

implementsInterface

  • implementsInterface(interfaceName: string): boolean

  • Returns true if the caller queries for a supported interface.

    Parameters

    • interfaceName: string

      Name of the interface to look for.

    Returns boolean

    True if the caller queries for a supported interface.

      Element to locate in the array.

    • Optional fromIndex: number

      The index where the search should start.

    Returns number

    The index of the item in the array, or -1 if the item was not found.

insert

  • Inserts an item at a specific position in the array.

    Parameters
