ParseChildrenAttribute Class

Definition

Defines a metadata attribute that you can use when developing ASP.NET server controls. Use the ParseChildrenAttribute class to indicate how the page parser should treat content nested inside a server control tag declared on a page. This class cannot be inherited.

public ref class ParseChildrenAttribute sealed : Attribute
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Class)]
public sealed class ParseChildrenAttribute : Attribute
[<System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Class)>]
type ParseChildrenAttribute = class
    inherit Attribute
Public NotInheritable Class ParseChildrenAttribute

Examples

The code example in this section contains two parts. The first code example demonstrates how to set properties for the ParseChildrenAttribute class. The second code example demonstrates how to use classes in an ASP.NET page.

The following code example demonstrates how to set the ParseChildrenAttribute object of a custom server control named CollectionPropertyControl. The ParseChildrenAttribute sets the ChildrenAsProperties property to true and the DefaultProperty property to the Employee class.

Remarks

The ParseChildrenAttribute class allows you to specify parsing logic for a custom server control by marking the server control with the ParseChildrenAttribute metadata attribute.

Marking your server control with the metadata attribute ParseChildren(true) instructs the parser to interpret the elements that are contained within the server control's tags as properties. In this scenario, the ChildrenAsProperties property is true.

Marking your server control with the metadata attribute ParseChildren(true,"<Default Property>") sets the DefaultProperty property to the name of the property that is passed into the attribute.

Marking your server control with the metadata attribute ParseChildren(false), the default value, instructs the parser to interpret the elements that are contained within the server control's tags as content that will be parsed with an associated ControlBuilder that is, as controls. In this scenario, the ChildrenAsProperties property is false.

For information about using attributes, see Attributes.

Constructors

ParseChildrenAttribute()

Initializes a new instance of the ParseChildrenAttribute class.

ParseChildrenAttribute(Boolean, String)

Initializes a new instance of the ParseChildrenAttribute class using the childrenAsProperties and defaultProperty parameters.

ParseChildrenAttribute(Boolean)

Initializes a new instance of the ParseChildrenAttribute class using the ChildrenAsProperties property to determine if the elements that are contained within a server control are parsed as properties of the server control.

ParseChildrenAttribute(Type)

Initializes a new instance of the ParseChildrenAttribute class using the ChildControlType property to determine which elements that are contained within a server control are parsed as controls.

Fields

Default

Defines the default value for the ParseChildrenAttribute class. This field is read-only.

ParseAsChildren

Indicates that the nested content that is contained within the server control is parsed as controls.

ParseAsProperties

Indicates that the nested content that is contained within a server control is parsed as properties of the control.

Properties

ChildControlType

Gets a value indicating the allowed type of a control.

ChildrenAsProperties

Gets or sets a value indicating whether to parse the elements that are contained within a server control as properties.

DefaultProperty

Gets or sets the default property for the server control into which the elements are parsed.

TypeId

When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute.

(Inherited from Attribute)

Methods

Equals(Object)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

GetHashCode()

Serves as a hash function for the ParseChildrenAttribute object.

GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
IsDefaultAttribute()

Returns a value indicating whether the value of the current instance of the ParseChildrenAttribute class is the default value of the derived class.

Match(Object)

When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object.

(Inherited from Attribute)
MemberwiseClone()

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

(Inherited from Object)
ToString()

Returns a string that represents the current object.

(Inherited from Object)

Explicit Interface Implementations

_Attribute.GetIDsOfNames(Guid, IntPtr, UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)

Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers.

(Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfo(UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)

Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface.

(Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfoCount(UInt32)

Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1).

(Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.Invoke(UInt32, Guid, UInt32, Int16, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr)

Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object.
