IListSource Interface

Definition

Provides functionality to an object to return a list that can be bound to a data source.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to implement the IListSource interface. A component named EmployeeListSource exposes an IList for data binding by implementing the GetList method. For a full code listing, see How to: Implement the IListSource Interface.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.ComponentModel;

namespace IListSourceCS
{
    public class EmployeeListSource : Component, IListSource
    {
        public EmployeeListSource() {}

        public EmployeeListSource(IContainer container)
        {
            container.Add(this);
        }

        #region IListSource Members

        bool IListSource.ContainsListCollection
        {
            get { return false; }
        }

        System.Collections.IList IListSource.GetList()
        {
            BindingList<Employee>   ble = new BindingList<Employee>();

            if (!this.DesignMode)
            {
                ble.Add(new Employee("Aaberg, Jesper", 26000000));
                ble.Add(new Employee("Cajhen, Janko", 19600000));
                ble.Add(new Employee("Furse, Kari", 19000000));
                ble.Add(new Employee("Langhorn, Carl", 16000000));
                ble.Add(new Employee("Todorov, Teodor", 15700000));
                ble.Add(new Employee("Verebélyi, Ágnes", 15700000));
            }

            return ble;
        }

        #endregion
    }

Remarks

You typically use this interface to return a list that can be bound to a data source, from an object that does not implement IList itself.

Binding to data can occur at either run time or in a designer, but there are rules for each. At run time, you can bind to data in any of the following:

  • Array

  • Implementer of IList, provided the implementer has a strongly typed Item[] property (that is, the Type is anything but Object). You can accomplish this by making the default implementation of Item[] private. If you want to create an IList that follows the rules of a strongly typed collection, you should derive from CollectionBase.

  • Implementer of ITypedList.

In a designer, you can initialize binding to Component objects by following the same rules.

Note

Implementers of IListSource can return an IList that contains a collection of IList objects.

Properties

ContainsListCollection

Gets a value indicating whether the collection is a collection of IList objects.

Methods

GetList()

Returns an IList that can be bound to a data source from an object that does not implement an IList itself.
