Remarks

The ListView control raises the ItemUpdating event when the UpdateItem method is called or when an item's Update button is clicked, but before the ListView control updates the item. (An Update button is a button whose CommandName property set to "Update".) This enables you to provide an event-handling method that performs a custom routine whenever this event occurs, such as canceling the update operation.

A ListViewUpdateEventArgs object is passed to the event-handling method. This object enables you to determine the index of the current item, and to specify that the update operation should be canceled. To cancel the update operation, set the Cancel property of the ListViewUpdateEventArgs object to true. You can also work with the Keys, OldValues, and NewValues collections before the values are passed to the data source. A typical way to use these collections is to validate or to HTML-encode the values that are supplied by the user before these values are stored in the data source. This can help prevent script-injection attacks.

For a list of initial property values for an instance of the ListViewUpdateEventArgs class, see the ListViewSelectEventArgs constructor.

Constructors

ListViewUpdateEventArgs(Int32)

Initializes a new instance of the ListViewUpdateEventArgs class.

Properties

Cancel	Gets or sets a value indicating whether the event should be canceled. (Inherited from CancelEventArgs)
ItemIndex	Gets the index of the data item that is being updated.
Keys	Gets a dictionary of field name/value pairs that represent the key or keys of the item to update.
NewValues	Gets a dictionary that contains the revised values of the item to update.
OldValues	Gets a dictionary that contains the original values of the item to update.

Methods

Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
