protected:
System::Collections::IEnumerable ^ GetDesignTimeDataSource(int minimumRows, [Runtime::InteropServices::Out] bool % dummyDataSource);
protected System.Collections.IEnumerable GetDesignTimeDataSource (int minimumRows, out bool dummyDataSource);
member this.GetDesignTimeDataSource : int * bool -> System.Collections.IEnumerable
Protected Function GetDesignTimeDataSource (minimumRows As Integer, ByRef dummyDataSource As Boolean) As IEnumerable
Parameters
- minimumRows
- Int32
The minimum number of rows of sample data that the data source should contain.
- dummyDataSource
- Boolean
true
if the returned data source contains dummy data; false
if the returned data source contains data from an actual data source.
Returns
An object implementing an IEnumerable interface that serves as a data source for use at design time.
Remarks
The BaseDataListDesigner.GetDesignTimeDataSource method attempts to construct a DataTable object from the data source that is defined by the DataSource and DataMember properties. If this is not possible, it creates a DataTable from dummy data.
