public static object GetDataItem (object container);
static member GetDataItem : obj -> obj
Public Shared Function GetDataItem (container As Object) As Object
Parameters
- container
- Object
The object reference against which the expression is evaluated. This must be a valid object identifier in the page's specified language.
Returns
An object that represents the container's declared data item. Returns null
if no data item is found or if the container evaluates to null
.
Remarks
This method calls the GetDataItem(Object, Boolean) method, ignoring its foundDataItem
parameter when returning the result.
An object's data item is identified in one of two ways. If the container object implements the IDataItemContainer interface, the DataItem property identifies the data item, and its value is returned. Otherwise, the method attempts to resolve and return a container property named "DataItem".
