AutoCompleteBox.PopulateComplete Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Notifies the AutoCompleteBox that the ItemsSource property has been set and the data can be filtered to provide possible matches in the drop-down.

Namespace:  System.Windows.Controls
Assembly:  System.Windows.Controls.Input (in System.Windows.Controls.Input.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub PopulateComplete

public void PopulateComplete()

Remarks

Call this method when you are providing custom population of the drop-down portion of the AutoCompleteBox, to signal the control that you are done with the population process. Typically, you use PopulateComplete when the population process is a long-running process and you want to cancel built-in filtering of the ItemsSource items. In this case, you can handle the Populating event and set PopulatingEventArgs.Cancel to true. When the long-running process has completed you call PopulateComplete to indicate the drop-down is populated.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to handle the Populating event and populate the AutoCompleteBox manually. This code example sets the PopulatingEventArgs.Cancel property to true to stop auto-population and then calls PopulateComplete when the manual population operation is complete. This code example requires a reference to the System.Windows.Controls.Input assembly.
