Contains information about a single data-binding expression in an ASP.NET server control, which allows rapid-application development (RAD) designers, such as Microsoft Visual Studio, to create data-binding expressions at design time. This class cannot be inherited.

DataBinding
Examples
The following code example creates a DataBinding object and sets it equal to an existing object in the control's DataBindingCollection collection that has a propertyName parameter with a value of Text. If the collection contains a DataBinding object with a propertyName value of Text, this code returns the value of the object's Expression property. If there is no such object, it returns an empty string ("").
// Create the custom class that accesses the DataBinding and
// DataBindingCollection classes at design time.

// Create a Text property with accessors that obtain
// the property value from and set the property value
// to the Text key in the DataBindingCollection class.

Remarks
Each data-binding expression in a server control is represented at design time by an instance of the DataBinding class. Any server control that contains one or more data-binding expressions has a DataBindingCollection object that contains the DataBinding objects. This collection is accessible through the Control class implementing the IDataBindingsAccessor interface. When you create a custom RAD designer, use that implementation to access the collection. Any DataBinding or DataBindingCollection objects associated with a server control exist only at design time. They do not exist at run time and, therefore, are not accessible during run time.
Constructors
| DataBinding(String, Type, String) |
Initializes a new instance of the DataBinding class. |
Properties
| Expression |
Gets or sets the data-binding expression to be evaluated. |
| PropertyName |
Gets the name of the ASP.NET server control property to bind data to. |
| PropertyType |
Gets the .NET Framework type of the data-bound ASP.NET server control property. |
Methods
| Equals(Object) |
Determines whether the specified object is the same instance of the DataBinding class as the current object. |
| GetHashCode() |
Retrieves the hash code for an instance of the DataBinding 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) |
