Examples

The following code example creates a check box control that derives from the CheckBox class and creates a custom Control.ControlAccessibleObject for the derived class to use. The derived class, MyCheckBox, has an Appearance of Button by default so it appears as a toggle button. The derived Control.ControlAccessibleObject class, MyCheckBoxControlAccessibleObject, overrides three properties to account for the difference in appearance.

Remarks

Windows Forms has accessibility support built in, and provides information about your application that enables it to work with accessibility client applications. Examples of accessibility client applications are: screen enlarger and reviewer utilities, voice input utilities, on-screen keyboards, alternative input devices, and keyboard enhancement utilities. Sometimes you will want to provide additional information to accessibility client applications. There are two ways of providing this additional information. To provide limited accessibility information for existing controls, set the control's AccessibleName, AccessibleDescription, AccessibleDefaultActionDescription, and AccessibleRole property values, which will be reported to accessibility client applications. Alternatively, if you require more accessibility information to be included with your control, you can write your own class deriving from the AccessibleObject or Control.ControlAccessibleObject classes. For example, if you are writing your own control that is not derived from the common controls or you require such operations as hit testing within your control, you should create a Control.ControlAccessibleObject for your control by calling the CreateAccessibilityInstance method.

Note

If you override the AccessibleObject.GetChild method, you must also override the AccessibleObject.GetChildCount method. To get or set the AccessibilityObject property, you must add a reference to the Accessibility assembly installed with the .NET Framework.

For more information about accessible objects, see Microsoft Active Accessibility.
