DataBinder Class

Definition

Provides support for rapid application development (RAD) designers to generate and parse data-binding expression syntax. This class cannot be inherited.

public ref class DataBinder sealed
public sealed class DataBinder
type DataBinder = class
Public NotInheritable Class DataBinder
Inheritance
DataBinder

Examples

The following example uses the static GetPropertyValue method to populate the fields of a Repeater control using an ArrayList of Product objects. The Eval method could be applied with the same syntax, but it would not perform as quickly.

This example uses a custom Product class which exposes a string Model property and a numeric UnitPrice property.

The following code is the custom Product class. This code should be included in a separate class file in the App_Code directory, such as Product.cs or Product.vb.

namespace ASPSample
{

    public class Product
    {
        string _Model;
        double _UnitPrice;

        public Product(string Model, double UnitPrice)
        {
            _Model = Model;
            _UnitPrice = UnitPrice;
        }

        // The product Model.
        public string Model
        {
            get {return _Model;}
            set {_Model = value;}
        }
            
        // The price of the each product.
        public double UnitPrice
        {
            get {return _UnitPrice;}
            set {_UnitPrice = value;}

Remarks

You can use the overloaded static Eval method of this class in data-binding syntax in an ASP.NET Web page. This provides an easier syntax to work with than standard data binding. However, because DataBinder.Eval provides automatic type conversion, it can result in slower performance.

For more information about ASP.NET data binding, expressions, and syntax, see Binding to Databases and Data-Binding Expressions Overview.

Starting in .NET Framework 4.5, you can use model binding to simplify some of the tasks that you had to perform through data-binding in earlier versions. For a tutorial series on using model binding with Web Forms, see Model Binding and Web Forms.
