Initializes a new instance of the WebPartTransformerAttribute class.
public:
WebPartTransformerAttribute(Type ^ consumerType, Type ^ providerType);
public WebPartTransformerAttribute (Type consumerType, Type providerType);
new System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.WebPartTransformerAttribute : Type * Type -> System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.WebPartTransformerAttribute
Public Sub New (consumerType As Type, providerType As Type)
Parameters
Exceptions
consumerType
or providerType
is not specified.
consumerType
equals providerType
.
Examples
The following code example demonstrates the use of a WebPartTransformerAttribute attribute with a customized WebPartTransformer class. The attribute indicates that the RowToStringTransformer
class can transform a provider connection point of type IWebPartRow
to a consumer connection point of type IString
.
This code example is part of a larger example found in the WebPartTransformer class overview.

Remarks
The WebPartTransformerAttribute constructor sets the consumer connection point type and the provider connection point type for the transformer. These values can be retrieved through the ConsumerType property and the ProviderType property, respectively.
