The collection does not detect changes to a group automatically, so you must call the <code>refresh()</code> method to update the collection after setting the <code>grouping</code>, <code>source</code>, or <code>summaries</code> properties. You also call the <code>refresh()</code> method when you modify a GroupingField of the collection, such as by changing the <code>caseInsensitive</code>, <code>compareFunction</code>, or <code>groupingFunction</code> properties.  <p>The <code>refresh()</code> method can be applied synchronously or asynchronously.</p>  <p>When <code>refresh()</code> is called synchronously, all groups and summaries are updated together before the method returns. That means your application cannot perform other processing operations for the duration of the call. A client should wait for a CollectionEvent event with the value of the <code>kind</code> property set to <code>CollectionEventKind.REFRESH</code> to ensure that the <code>refresh()</code> method completed.</p>  <p>In asynchronous refresh, all groups and summaries are updated individually. The <code>refresh()</code> method returns before the groups and summaries are updated so that your application can continue execution. Also, the control is updated during the refresh so that the user can continue to interact with it.</p>  <p>The overhead of updating groups and summaries individually, rather than all at once, makes an asynchronous refresh take longer than a synchronous one. However, for large data sets, your application continues to operate during the refresh.</p>  By default it is <code>false</code> denoting synchronous refresh.  dispatched when groups are formed.
