Examples

The following example enables a user to add various types of items to a collection. The user can enter a new item and submit the entry or cancel the transaction. The example gets an IEditableCollectionViewAddNewItem from the Items property of a ListBox and creates an object, whose type is determined by the user. Then the example calls the AddNewItem method to add the object to the collection.

Remarks

The IEditableCollectionViewAddNewItem interface enables application developers to specify what type of object to add to a collection. This interface extends IEditableCollectionView, so you can add, edit, and remove items in a collection. IEditableCollectionViewAddNewItem adds the AddNewItem method, which takes an object that is added to the collection. This method is useful when the collection and objects that you want to add have one or more of the following characteristics:

The objects in the CollectionView are different types.
The objects do not have a parameterless constructor.
The object already exists.
You want to add a null object to the collection.
