Binding the enum values on to checked combobox edit in dev express

Question

How to provide the enum values on to checked combobox edit control in dev express?

public enum AccessRoles
{
    User,
    Administrator
}

foreach (var item in Enum.GetValues(typeof(AccessRoles)))
{
    checkedComboBoxEdit1.Properties.Items.AddRange(Enum.GetValues(typeof(item)));
}

How do I bind the enum value on to checkedcomboBoxedit?

checkedComboBoxEdit1.Properties.Items.AddRange(Enum.GetValues(typeof(AccessRoles))); — Myself, Jul 15 '15 at 12:47

try something like this. Bind your comboboxedit to your list (or whatever) of enums.

then in your comboboxedit

<dxe:ComboBoxEdit //stuff here>
     <dxmvvm:Interaction.Behaviors>
            <dxmvvm:EnumItemsSourceBehavior EnumType="{x:Type local:AccessRoles}" SortMode="DisplayName"/>
        </dxmvvm:Interaction.Behaviors>
        <dxe:ComboBoxEdit.ItemTemplate>
</dxe:ComboBoxEdit>

let me know if this works, Ive never personally tried it before. Its new to version 14.2, so if you have an older version let me know

This piece of code worked for binding those Enum values on to CheckedComboEdit.

checkedComboBoxEdit1.Properties.DataSource = Enum.GetValues(typeof(AccessRoles));

I think the best Way To Use Enum with DevExpress is DevExpress.XtraEditors.ImageComboBoxEdit or Repository (RepositoryItemImageComboBox)

        Type EnumType=typeof(MyEnum);
        DevExpress.XtraEditors.ImageComboBoxEdit ED = new 
        DevExpress.XtraEditors.ImageComboBoxEdit();
        ED.Properties.AddEnum(EnumType);
        //or Manualy to get Description From Resource or any way
        foreach (var item in Enum.GetValues(EnumType))
        {
            ImageComboBoxItem I = new ImageComboBoxItem();
            I.Value = item;
            I.Description = 
            GetEnumDescFunctionOrResourceValue(item);
            ED.Properties.Items.Add(I);
        }

You can also use "Flags" attribute and "SetFlag" method.

[Flags]
public enum FruitTypes
{
   None,
   Apple,
   Banana,
   Graphes,
   Mango
}


...
var editor = new CheckedComboBoxEdit();
// set flags
editor.SetFlags(typeof(FruitTypes));
...
