Parameters
- component
- IComponent
An object that implements the IComponent interface.
Returns
true
if component
is a valid data source; otherwise, false
.

The IsValidDataSource method considers the component
parameter to be a valid data source if it implements the IDataSource interface.
Notes to Inheritors
The IsValidDataSource(IComponent) method should be overridden by controls that need to further investigate a given component to decide whether it should be returned in the list of standard values. For example, if a control works with only XmlDataSource data sources, IsValidDataSource(IComponent) should return true
only for those components that are XmlDataSource objects.
