In his recent post Bertrand Le Roy announced that he migrated his ObjectHierarchicalDataSource and CompositeHierarchicalDataSource controls from GotDotNet to CodePlex.

I just downloaded the sample projects and tried binding RadMenu and RadTreeView to those data source controls. Everything went according to plan:

I’ve made two demo web sites – ObjectHierarchicalDataSource.zip and CompositeHierarchicalDataSource.zip. Feel free to check them out.

    Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this handles self nested data. The only way to indicate the root element is for the DataFieldParentID attribute to be <NULL>, which means it must be bound to a dataset (or similar). Or am I missing something?

    I don't understand your post - binding to CompositeHierarchicalDataSource does not require setting the DataFieldID/DataFieldParentID properties. I think this is the best part of using it :)
