Syntax
'Declaration
Public Overrides Function GetParentNode ( _
node As SiteMapNode _
) As SiteMapNode
'Usage
Dim instance As SPSiteMapProvider
Dim node As SiteMapNode
Dim returnValue As SiteMapNode
returnValue = instance.GetParentNode(node)
public override SiteMapNode GetParentNode(
SiteMapNode node
)
Parameters
node
Type: System.Web.SiteMapNodeThe SiteMapNode instance for which to retrieve the parent node.
Return value
Type: System.Web.SiteMapNode
Returns a SiteMapNode instance that represents the parent of node; otherwise returns a null reference if the object has no parent or if security trimming is enabled and the parent node is not accessible to the current user.
Remarks
The parent node represents the next-nearest ancestor Web site that has its UseShared property set to False, unless the provider is returning parent nodes for the SPContentMapProvider object. The SPContentMapProvider object provides the SiteMapNode instance that constitutes the content for the local breadcrumb.
