[rdnzl-devel] Multiple DataGridViews in virtual mode example.

Hi all once again,

I have another example of the DataGridView. This time it is a simple MVC example. It is two DataGridViews showing/editing the same dataset. So you can change the data in one and see the updates reflected in the other.

Feel free to to with it as you wish, but use it at your own peril. I am still just a Lisp newbie.

Regards,

Matthew

;; ======================================================================== ;; Multiple DataGridView Experiment. ;; ;; Matthew O'Connor ;; ;; This experiment is an extension of the last one in that there are now ;; two DataGridViews watching over the same database. ;; ;; The example is a simple implemenation of the Model View Controller ;; pattern. Each DataGridView is independent of the other but when the ;; underlying model (database) changes all views (DataGridView) are ;; notified and update their representation accordingly. ;; ;; You should be able add, remove or edit rows in one DataGridView and ;; have the updates appear in the other one. ;; ;; As with the previous experiment the DataGridView is running in Virtual ;; mode. The update mechanisms are a bit more complex now because ;; DataGridView that should be updated has to be determined. ;; ;; As usual there is no warranty. Use at your own peril. I am relatively ;; new to Lisp so you are warned.

;; NOTE: You need to modify this to point to the location of RDNZL on your system. (load "../RDNZL/rdnzl-0.12.0/load.lisp")
