 virtual property System::String ^ ProvidersTitle { System::String ^ get(); void set(System::String ^ value); };

public virtual string ProvidersTitle { get; set; }

member this.ProvidersTitle : string with get, set

Public Overridable Property ProvidersTitle As String

Property Value

String

A string serving as the title text for providers participating in a connection. The default title is a culture-specific string supplied by the .NET Framework.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of the ProvidersTitle property with a ConnectionsZone control. The example contains only the code for the Web page that demonstrates use of the property; for the other two code files needed to run the example, see the Example section of the ConnectionsZone class overview. The code example has four parts:

A user control that enables you to switch display modes on the Web page. Obtain this code from the ConnectionsZone class overview.
A source file that contains the code for a ZIP Code interface, and two WebPart controls acting as the provider and the consumer for a connection. Obtain this code from the ConnectionsZone class overview.
A Web page that hosts all the controls, declares an <asp:connectionszone> element, and shows how to use the property programmatically.
An explanation of how the example works in a browser.

The Web page declares an <asp:connectionszone> element and, in the Page_PreRender method, the code assigns a value to the ProvidersTitle property.

Load the page in a browser. Switch to connect mode, using the Display Mode control. Click the verbs menu arrow on the ZIP Code Consumer control, and click the connect verb. In the view that opens for the existing connection, look in the providers section for the custom text assigned to the ProvidersTitle property.

Remarks

The ProvidersTitle property takes effect in a specific connection scenario. When a user clicks the connect verb on a consumer control, and a connection already exists, the ConnectionsZone control displays a view that enables users to disconnect the connection. The view also shows any providers participating in the connection. Just above the list of providers is the providers instruction text, and above that is the title of the providers section, for which the ProvidersTitle property supplies the text.

You can set the value of this property declaratively within the opening tag of the <asp:connectionszone> element, by adding an attribute named ProvidersTitle and assigning it a value. You can also set the property value programmatically.
