DataObject();public DataObject();Public Sub New ()Examples
The following code example creates a DataObject and adds data to it. The example then retrieves and displays the data. This code requires that textBox1 has been created.
private:
void CreateDefaultDataObject()
{
// Creates a data object.
DataObject^ myDataObject;
// Assigns the string to the data object.
String^ myString = "My text string";
myDataObject = gcnew DataObject( myString );
// Prints the string in a text box.
textBox1->Text = myDataObject->GetData( DataFormats::Text )->ToString();
}
private void CreateDefaultDataObject() {
// Creates a data object.
DataObject myDataObject;
// Assigns the string to the data object.
string myString = "My text string";
myDataObject = new DataObject(myString);
// Prints the string in a text box.
textBox1.Text = myDataObject.GetData(DataFormats.Text).ToString();
}
Private Sub CreateDefaultDataObject()
' Creates a data object.
Dim myDataObject As DataObject
' Assigns the string to the data object.
Dim myString As String = "My text string"
myDataObject = New DataObject(myString)
' Prints the string in a text box.
textBox1.Text = myDataObject.GetData(DataFormats.Text).ToString()
End Sub

Initializes a new instance of the DataObject class and adds the specified object to it.
public:
DataObject(System::Object ^ data);public DataObject(object data);new System.Windows.Forms.DataObject : obj -> System.Windows.Forms.DataObjectPublic Sub New (data As Object)Parameters
- data
- Object
The data to store.
Examples
The following code example creates a DataObject that contains a string. The data is retrieved using its data format. The results are displayed in a text box. This code requires that textBox1 has been created.
private:
void CreateTextDataObject()
{
// Creates a new data object using a string.
String^ myString = "My text string";
DataObject^ myDataObject = gcnew DataObject( myString );
// Prints the string in a text box.
textBox1->Text = myDataObject->GetData( DataFormats::Text )->ToString();
}
private void CreateTextDataObject() {
// Creates a new data object using a string.
string myString = "My text string";
DataObject myDataObject = new DataObject(myString);
// Prints the string in a text box.
textBox1.Text = myDataObject.GetData(DataFormats.Text).ToString();
}
Private Sub CreateTextDataObject()
' Creates a new data object using a string.
Dim myString As String = "My text string"
Dim myDataObject As New DataObject(myString)
' Prints the string in a text box.
textBox1.Text = myDataObject.GetData(DataFormats.Text).ToString()
End Sub
Remarks
You can add data in any format to the DataObject when you use this constructor, or you can add data as an IDataObject to provide multiple formats at once. If you are familiar with COM programming, you can also add a data object that implements the COM IDataObject interface. For more information, see IDataObject.

The following code example creates a DataObject class using a string that is specified as the string type. The data is retrieved from the DataObject by specifying its format as text. The results are displayed in a text box. This code requires that textBox1 has been created.
private:
void CreateTextDataObject2()
{
// Creates a new data object using a string.
String^ myString = "My next text string";
DataObject^ myDataObject = gcnew DataObject( "System.String",myString );
// Prints the string in a text box.

}
private void CreateTextDataObject2() {
// Creates a new data object using a string.
string myString = "My next text string";
DataObject myDataObject = new DataObject("System.String", myString);
// Prints the string in a text box.
textBox1.Text = myDataObject.GetData(DataFormats.Text).ToString();
