ListSourceHelper.ContainsListCollection(IDataSource) Method

Definition

Indicates whether the specified data source control contains a collection of data source view objects.

C#
public static bool ContainsListCollection(System.Web.UI.IDataSource dataSource);

Parameters

dataSource
IDataSource

An IDataSource that specifies the data source control to test for associated data source view objects.

Returns

true if the data source control contains a collection of data source view objects; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the design pattern for a data source class that implements the IListSource methods. The ContainsListCollection property calls the static ContainsListCollection method.

C#
#region Implementation of IListSource

bool IListSource.ContainsListCollection {
    get {
        return ListSourceHelper.ContainsListCollection(this);
    }
}

IList IListSource.GetList() {
    return ListSourceHelper.GetList(this);
}

#endregion

Remarks

Use this method in an implementation of the ContainsListCollection property, passing a reference to a data source control.
