Resolves design-time data-binding for the specified control.
public:
override void DataBindControl(System::ComponentModel::Design::IDesignerHost ^ designerHost, System::Web::UI::Control ^ control);
public override void DataBindControl (System.ComponentModel.Design.IDesignerHost designerHost, System.Web.UI.Control control);
override this.DataBindControl : System.ComponentModel.Design.IDesignerHost * System.Web.UI.Control -> unit
Public Overrides Sub DataBindControl (designerHost As IDesignerHost, control As Control)
Parameters
- designerHost
- IDesignerHost
The IDesignerHost for the document that contains the control.
Examples
The following code example creates a class, named CustomHyperLinkDataBindingHandler
, which derives from the HyperLinkDataBindingHandler
class. It resolves design-time data binding for the ImageUrl property of the CustomHyperLink
class so that placeholder text is displayed for the property when it is data-bound at design time.
// Derive a class from the HyperLinkDataBindingHandler. It will
// resolve data binding for the CustomHyperlink at design time.
public class CustomHyperLinkDataBindingHandler :
HyperLinkDataBindingHandler
{
// Override the DataBindControl to set property values in
// the DataBindingCollection at design time.
public override void DataBindControl(IDesignerHost designerHost,
Control control)
{
DataBindingCollection bindings =
((IDataBindingsAccessor)control).DataBindings;
DataBinding imageBinding = bindings["ImageUrl"];
// If Text is empty, supply a default value.
if (!(imageBinding == null))
{
CustomHyperLink hype = (CustomHyperLink)control;
hype.ImageUrl = "Image URL.";
}
// Call the base method to bind the control.
base.DataBindControl(designerHost, control);
} // DataBindControl
} // CustomHyperLinkDataBindingHandler
' Derive a class from the HyperLinkDataBindingHandler. It will
' resolve data binding for the CustomHyperlink at design time.
Public Class CustomHyperLinkDataBindingHandler
Inherits HyperLinkDataBindingHandler
' Override the DataBindControl to set property values in
' the DataBindingCollection at design time.
Public Overrides Sub DataBindControl( _
ByVal designerHost As IDesignerHost, ByVal control As Control)
Dim bindings As DataBindingCollection = _
CType(control, IDataBindingsAccessor).DataBindings
Dim imageBinding As DataBinding = bindings("ImageUrl")
If Not (imageBinding Is Nothing) Then
Dim hLink As CustomHyperLink = CType(control, CustomHyperLink)
hLink.ImageUrl = "Image URL."
End If
MyBase.DataBindControl(designerHost, control)
End Sub
End Class
Remarks
This method determines whether the Text and NavigateUrl properties of the HyperLink control are data-bound. If the Text property is data-bound, this method sets the value of the property to "DataBound". If the NavigateUrl property is data-bound, this method sets the value of the property to a text string so the control will have the appearance of a working hyperlink.
