member this.Bindable : bool

Public ReadOnly Property Bindable As Boolean

Examples

The following code example checks to see whether MyProperty is bindable. First the code gets the attributes for MyProperty by doing the following:

• Retrieving a PropertyDescriptorCollection with all the properties for the object.

• Indexing into the PropertyDescriptorCollection to get MyProperty.

• Saving the attributes for this property in the attributes variable.

Then, the code sets myAttribute to the value of the BindableAttribute in the AttributeCollection and checks whether the property is bindable.

For this code example to run, you must provide the fully qualified assembly name. For information about how to obtain the fully qualified assembly name, see

// Gets the attributes for the property.
AttributeCollection^ attributes = TypeDescriptor::GetProperties( this )[ "MyProperty" ]->Attributes;

// Checks to see if the property is bindable.
BindableAttribute^ myAttribute = dynamic_cast<BindableAttribute^>(attributes[ BindableAttribute::typeid ]);
if ( myAttribute->Bindable )
{
   // Insert code here.
}

// Gets the attributes for the property.
AttributeCollection attributes =
   TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(this)["MyProperty"].Attributes;

// Checks to see if the property is bindable.
BindableAttribute myAttribute = (BindableAttribute)attributes[typeof(BindableAttribute)];
if (myAttribute.Bindable)
{
    // Insert code here.
}

  ' Gets the attributes for the property.
  Dim attributes As AttributeCollection = _
     TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(Me)("MyProperty").Attributes

       ' Checks to see if the property is bindable.
       Dim myAttribute As BindableAttribute = _
       CType(attributes(System.Type.GetType("BindableAttribute")), BindableAttribute)
       If (myAttribute.Bindable) Then
           ' Insert code here.
       End If
