protected virtual void OnCreateVerbs (System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.WebPartVerbsEventArgs e);

abstract member OnCreateVerbs : System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.WebPartVerbsEventArgs -> unit
override this.OnCreateVerbs : System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.WebPartVerbsEventArgs -> unit

Protected Overridable Sub OnCreateVerbs (e As WebPartVerbsEventArgs)

Parameters

e: WebPartVerbsEventArgs

An EventArgs that contains the event data.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates a way to create a handler for the CreateVerbs event by overriding the OnCreateVerbs method to add a custom verb to a derived WebPartZoneBase zone.

The code example contains two source files. For the code example to run, you must compile this source code. You can compile it explicitly and put the resulting assembly in your Web site's Bin folder or the global assembly cache. Alternatively, you can put the source code in your site's App_Code folder, where it will be dynamically compiled at run time. This code example uses dynamic compilation. For a walkthrough that demonstrates how to compile, see Walkthrough: Developing and Using a Custom Web Server Control.

The first part of the code example is the source code for a simple control derived from the WebPart class.

The second part of the code example is the source code for a derived WebPartZoneBase zone that overrides the OnCreateVerbs method to add a custom verb to the zone. The code also creates a custom verb that appears in the verbs menu of WebPart controls contained in the zone, and the verb creates another copy of the current WebPart control.

The third part of the code example is a Web page that hosts the derived zone and WebPart control. Near the top of the page is a Register directive to reference the derived zone component. If you load the page in a browser, the WebPart control appears in the zone. Click the verbs menu, then click the CopyWebPart verb, and it creates a copy of the control.

Remarks

You can override the OnCreateVerbs method in a derived WebPartZoneBase zone class to add additional WebPartVerb objects to the collection of standard verbs in your zone. You can do this by adding verbs to the collection in the Verbs property.
