Definition

Occurs before the commands related to an item in an ObjectList are shown. This API is obsolete. For information about how to develop ASP.NET mobile applications, see Mobile Apps & Sites with ASP.NET.

public:
 event System::Web::UI::MobileControls::ObjectListShowCommandsEventHandler ^ ShowItemCommands;
public event System.Web.UI.MobileControls.ObjectListShowCommandsEventHandler ShowItemCommands;
member this.ShowItemCommands : System.Web.UI.MobileControls.ObjectListShowCommandsEventHandler 
Public Custom Event ShowItemCommands As ObjectListShowCommandsEventHandler 

Event Type

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the ShowItemCommands event to remove an item from the ObjectListCommandCollection of the detail view of an ObjectList. The item to remove is selected in the list view.

Note

The following code sample uses the single-file code model and may not work correctly if copied directly into a code-behind file. This code sample must be copied into an empty text file that has an .aspx extension. For more information, see ASP.NET Web Forms Page Code Model.

Remarks

The event argument contains a reference to the item and to the collection of commands. An event handler can customize the collection according to the item. Applications can use the ShowItemCommands event to provide functionality equivalent to item-specific shortcut menus. Changes made to the collection of commands during this event are not persisted.

This event is called after the ItemSelect event is called. You can use this event to perform other tasks before showing the detail view. You can add, remove, or rearrange fields, depending on the item selected in the list view.
