Initializes a new instance of the MaskedTextBox class using defaults.

MaskedTextBox(MaskedTextProvider)

- Source:

- Source:
- MaskedTextBox.cs
Initializes a new instance of the MaskedTextBox class using the specified custom mask language provider.
public:
MaskedTextBox(System::ComponentModel::MaskedTextProvider ^ maskedTextProvider);public MaskedTextBox (System.ComponentModel.MaskedTextProvider maskedTextProvider);new System.Windows.Forms.MaskedTextBox : System.ComponentModel.MaskedTextProvider -> System.Windows.Forms.MaskedTextBoxPublic Sub New (maskedTextProvider As MaskedTextProvider)Parameters
- maskedTextProvider
- MaskedTextProvider
A custom mask language provider, derived from the MaskedTextProvider class.
Exceptions
maskedTextProvider is null.
Remarks
The maskedTextProvider parameter defines the masking language used by MaskedTextBox. It is responsible for parsing the mask and determining whether user input conforms to the current mask position. You can derive a new class from System.ComponentModel.MaskedTextProvider to define your own custom masking language, and use the MaskedTextBox(MaskedTextProvider) constructor to replace the standard System.ComponentModel.MaskedTextProvider.
If you want to use the default masking language and supply your own input mask, you do not need to use this constructor. Instead, you can either use the MaskedTextBox(String) constructor, or use the parameterless constructor then set the Mask property.

MaskedTextBox(String)
- Source:
- MaskedTextBox.cs
- Source:
- MaskedTextBox.cs
- Source:
- MaskedTextBox.cs
Initializes a new instance of the MaskedTextBox class using the specified input mask.
public:
MaskedTextBox(System::String ^ mask);public MaskedTextBox (string mask);new System.Windows.Forms.MaskedTextBox : string -> System.Windows.Forms.MaskedTextBoxPublic Sub New (mask As String)Parameters
Exceptions
mask is null.
Remarks
The MaskedTextBox(String) constructor uses the standard System.ComponentModel.MaskedTextProvider with the input mask to parse user input into the MaskedTextBox.
If you assign a new mask to the Mask property, it will override the value set by this constructor.
