Examples

The following code example demonstrates a class that implements a URL-specific property. In this code example, a UrlPropertyAttribute attribute is applied to the TargetUrl property of the CustomHyperLinkControl class. The attribute sets a specific file filter for ASP.NET files.

public class CustomHyperLinkControl : WebControl
{
    public CustomHyperLinkControl() { }

    // The TargetUrl property represents the URL that 
    // the custom hyperlink control navigates to.
    [UrlProperty("*.aspx")]
    public string TargetUrl
    {
        get
        {
            string s = (string)ViewState["TargetUrl"];
            return ((s == null) ? String.Empty : s);
        }
        set
        {
            ViewState["TargetUrl"] = value;
        }
    }

    // The Text property represents the visible text that 
    // the custom hyperlink control is displayed with.        
    public virtual string Text
    {
        get
        {
            string s = (string)ViewState["Text"];
            return ((s == null) ? String.Empty : s);
        }
        set
        {
            ViewState["Text"] = value;
        }
    }

    // Implement method to render the control.
}

        Set(ByVal value As String)

Remarks

The UrlPropertyAttribute attribute is an attribute applied to a control property that represents a URL. In addition to marking a string property as representing a URL, the UrlPropertyAttribute attribute defines the Filter property that identifies specific file types that can be used to filter against the property.

Constructors

UrlPropertyAttribute()	Initializes a new default instance of the UrlPropertyAttribute class.
UrlPropertyAttribute(String)	Initializes a new instance of the UrlPropertyAttribute class, setting the Filter property to the specified string.

Properties

Filter	Gets a file filter associated with the URL-specific property.
TypeId	When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute. (Inherited from Attribute)

Methods

Equals(Object)	Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object.
GetHashCode()	Returns the hash code for this instance.
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
IsDefaultAttribute()	When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class. (Inherited from Attribute)
Match(Object)	When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)

Explicit Interface Implementations

_Attribute.GetIDsOfNames(Guid, IntPtr, UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)	Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. (Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfo(UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)	Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface. (Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfoCount(UInt32)	Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1). (Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.Invoke(UInt32, Guid, UInt32, Int16, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr)	Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object. (Inherited from Attribute)
