Xceed Input Validator for WinForms is a managed C# component designed to add flexible validation to standard input controls and grid cells without programming. It integrates seamlessly with TextBox, ComboBox, and Xceed Grid cells, letting developers set validation conditions visually and customize error feedback for improved data entry accuracy.

Component Integration

The input validator can be dropped onto any Windows Form, automatically enhancing compatible input controls with validation expression properties that define validation conditions.

Supported Input Controls

It supports validation for .NET Framework TextBox and ComboBox controls, as well as Xceed Grid for WinForms cells and its editor controls.

Visual Validation Setup

Validation criteria are configured visually via easy-to-use dialogs or the Properties window, eliminating the need for custom coding to implement input validation rules.

Customizable Error Messaging

Displays error icons next to invalid controls and row selectors, with hover tooltips showing overridable and localizable error messages describing the input issue.

Validation Timing Options

Validation can trigger either when the control loses focus or by invoking a general validation method, providing flexibility in user input verification strategies.

Extensibility

Developers can extend functionality by deriving from provided ValidationCriterion or ValidationExpression classes to create custom validation logic.

Managed .NET Implementation

Written entirely in managed C# for .NET Framework version 4, ensuring CLS compliance and integration with Visual Studio and standard .NET exception handling.
