WebPartManager.EndWebPartEditing Method

Definition

Namespace:

System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts

Assembly:

System.Web.dll

Completes the process of editing a WebPart control.

C#

public virtual void EndWebPartEditing();

Exceptions

InvalidOperationException

The control referenced by the SelectedWebPart property is null.

Remarks

The EndWebPartEditing method finishes the process of editing a WebPart control. It is the counterpart to the BeginWebPartEditing method.

The EndWebPartEditing method ensures that the personalization object referenced by the Personalization property is modifiable, which is necessary because editing a control is a process that requires personalization changes. The method then ensures that the SelectedWebPart object is not null, so that the currently selected WebPart control can change, and finally it calls the OnSelectedWebPartChanged method.

Notes to Inheritors

Developers who need to extend the WebPartManager control might want to override this method in a derived class. One approach would be to call the base method and then add some additional custom handling, or you might want to completely customize the entire process of completing the editing of a control. For example, in the override method, you could call the base method first, and then add some code that determines what editing changes were made, and displays the list of changes back to the end user as a confirmation.
