References the method to call when retrieving table data from a provider.
public delegate void TableCallback(ICollection ^ tableData);
public delegate void TableCallback(ICollection tableData);
type TableCallback = delegate of ICollection -> unit
Public Delegate Sub TableCallback(tableData As ICollection)
Parameters
- tableData
- ICollection
The data to retrieve from the provider.
Examples
The following code example contains a Web Parts control named TableProviderWebPart
that serves as a provider of data in the form of a table. The control includes an implementation of the GetTableData method, which receives a parameter of type TableCallback. This method calls the method represented by the TableCallback delegate passing the table data.

In the OnPreRender
method, the consumer calls GetTableData
in TableProviderWebPart
and passes its GetTableData
method as the delegate to call with the table data, as shown in the following code example.

Remarks
When a Web Parts control implements the IWebPartTable interface and serves as a provider in a Web Parts connection, the consumer or transformer must retrieve and process the table data from the provider. The TableCallback delegate represents the method to call for processing the provider data.
The GetTableData method contains a TableCallback delegate parameter.
Extension Methods
GetMethodInfo(Delegate) |
Gets an object that represents the method represented by the specified delegate. |
