Issue with Using Immutable Array in RadzenDataGrid Data Property

Radzen.Blazor Components

Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble understanding why I can't use an immutable array in the Data property of RadzenDataGrid. Since it implements IEnumerable, I expected it to work. Could someone please explain why this is not possible ?

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I'm detailing my previous post.I've looked into the code, but I'm having trouble understanding the issue because the parameter is an IEnumerable, and ImmutableArray implements IEnumerable.

Example Code:

<RadzenDataGrid AllowVirtualization="true" PageSize="2" Data="@Items" EmptyText="Empty"
                 AllowPaging="true" TItem="CustomClass" AllowFiltering="true" AllowSorting="true">
    <Columns>
        <RadzenDataGridColumn TItem="CustomClass" Property="@nameof(CustomClass.Name)" />
        <RadzenDataGridColumn TItem="CustomClass" Property="@nameof(CustomClass.Description)" />
    </Columns>
</RadzenDataGrid>

@code {
    public class CustomClass
    {
        public CustomClass(string name, string description)
        {
            Name = name;
            Description = description;
        }

        public string Name { get; set; }
        public string Description { get; set; }
    }

    private ImmutableArray<CustomClass> Items = ImmutableArray.Create(
        new CustomClass("test1", "description test1"),
        new CustomClass("test2", "description test2"),
        new CustomClass("test3", "description test3"),
        new CustomClass("test4", "description test4")
    );
}
