Examples

The following configuration file excerpt shows how to declaratively specify values for several properties of the TagPrefixCollection type.

<system.web>  
  <pages>  
    <controls>  
      <clear />  
      <remove tagPrefix="MyTags" />  
      <!-- Searches all linked assemblies for the namespace -->  
      <add tagPrefix="MyTags1" namespace=" MyNameSpace "/>  
      <!-- Uses a specified assembly -->  
      <add tagPrefix="MyTags2" namespace="MyNameSpace"   
        assembly="MyAssembly"/>  
      <!-- Uses the specified source for the user control -->  
      <add tagprefix="MyTags3" tagname="MyCtrl" src="MyControl.ascx"/>  
    </controls>  
   </pages>  
</system.web>

The following code example shows how to use the TagPrefixCollection class to programmatically modify tag-prefix settings. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the PagesSection class.

// Get all current Controls in the collection.
for (int i = 0; i < pagesSection.Controls.Count; i++)
{
  Console.WriteLine("Control {0}:", i);
  Console.WriteLine("  TagPrefix = '{0}' ",
      pagesSection.Controls[i].TagPrefix);
  Console.WriteLine("  TagName = '{0}' ",
      pagesSection.Controls[i].TagName);
  Console.WriteLine("  Source = '{0}' ",
      pagesSection.Controls[i].Source);
  Console.WriteLine("  Namespace = '{0}' ",
      pagesSection.Controls[i].Namespace);
  Console.WriteLine("  Assembly = '{0}' ",
      pagesSection.Controls[i].Assembly);
}

// Create a new TagPrefixInfo object.
System.Web.Configuration.TagPrefixInfo tagPrefixInfo =
    new System.Web.Configuration.TagPrefixInfo("MyCtrl", "MyNameSpace", "MyAssembly", "MyControl", "MyControl.ascx");

// Execute the Add Method.
pagesSection.Controls.Add(tagPrefixInfo);

// Add a TagPrefixInfo object using a constructor.
pagesSection.Controls.Add(
    new System.Web.Configuration.TagPrefixInfo(
    "MyCtrl", "MyNameSpace", "MyAssembly", "MyControl",
    "MyControl.ascx"));

' Get all current Controls in the collection.
Dim j As Int32
For j = 0 To pagesSection.Controls.Count - 1
  Console.WriteLine("Control {0}:", j)
  Console.WriteLine("  TagPrefix = '{0}' ", _
   pagesSection.Controls(j).TagPrefix)
  Console.WriteLine("  TagName = '{0}' ", _
   pagesSection.Controls(j).TagName)
  Console.WriteLine("  Source = '{0}' ", _
   pagesSection.Controls(j).Source)
  Console.WriteLine("  Namespace = '{0}' ", _
   pagesSection.Controls(j).Namespace)
  Console.WriteLine("  Assembly = '{0}' ", _
   pagesSection.Controls(j).Assembly)
Next

' Create a new TagPrefixInfo object.
Dim tagPrefixInfo As System.Web.Configuration.TagPrefixInfo = _
 New System.Web.Configuration.TagPrefixInfo("MyCtrl", "MyNameSpace", "MyAssembly", "MyControl", "MyControl.ascx")

' Execute the Add Method.
pagesSection.Controls.Add(tagPrefixInfo)

' Add a TagPrefixInfo object using a constructor.
pagesSection.Controls.Add( _
 New System.Web.Configuration.TagPrefixInfo( _
 "MyCtrl", "MyNameSpace", "MyAssembly", "MyControl", _
 "MyControl.ascx"))

Remarks

The TagPrefixInfo class allows you to programmatically access and modify tag-prefix information stored in a configuration file. Tag prefixes associate a "namespace" in ASP.NET with the assemblies and namespaces that must be included for custom controls and user controls to work properly.

TagPrefixInfo objects are stored as members of a TagPrefixCollection object. The TagPrefixCollection class allows you to programmatically access and modify the controls subsection of the pages section of a configuration file.

TagPrefixCollection()
