Examples

The following code example adds data in a DataObject. First, a new DataObject is created and a component is stored in it. Then, it checks to see if data in the appropriate type exists in the DataObject. The result is displayed in a text box. This code requires that textBox1 has been created.

private:
   void AddMyData3()
   {
      // Creates a component to store in the data object.
      Component^ myComponent = gcnew Component;
      
      // Creates a new data object.
      DataObject^ myDataObject = gcnew DataObject;
      
      // Adds the component to the DataObject.
      myDataObject->SetData( myComponent );
      
      // Prints whether data of the specified type is in the DataObject.
      Type^ myType = myComponent->GetType();
      if ( myDataObject->GetDataPresent( myType ) )
      {
         textBox1->Text = String::Concat( "Data of type ", myType,
            " is present in the DataObject" );
      }
      else
      {
         textBox1->Text = String::Concat( "Data of type ", myType,
            " is not present in the DataObject" );
      }
   }
private void AddMyData3() {
    // Creates a component to store in the data object.
    Component myComponent = new Component();
 
    // Creates a new data object.
    DataObject myDataObject = new DataObject();
 
    // Adds the component to the DataObject.
    myDataObject.SetData(myComponent);
 
    // Prints whether data of the specified type is in the DataObject.
    Type myType = myComponent.GetType();
    if(myDataObject.GetDataPresent(myType))
       textBox1.Text = "Data of type " + myType.ToString() + 
       " is present in the DataObject";
    else
       textBox1.Text = "Data of type " + myType.ToString() +
       " is not present in the DataObject";
 }
Private Sub AddMyData3()
    ' Creates a component to store in the data object.
    Dim myComponent As New Component()
    
    ' Creates a new data object.
    Dim myDataObject As New DataObject()
    
    ' Adds the component to the DataObject.
    myDataObject.SetData(myComponent)
    
    ' Prints whether data of the specified type is in the DataObject.
    Dim myType As Type = myComponent.GetType()
    If myDataObject.GetDataPresent(myType) Then
        textBox1.Text = "Data of type " & myType.ToString() & _
            " is present in the DataObject"
    Else
        textBox1.Text = "Data of type " & myType.ToString() & _
            " is not present in the DataObject"
    End If
End Sub

The next example retrieves the data stored in a DataObject. First, a new DataObject is created with text data. Then, the data is retrieved, specifying its format as a string, and displayed in a text box. The data format is automatically converted from text to string. This code requires that textBox1 has been created.

void GetMyData2()
{
   // Creates a new data object using a string and the text format.
   DataObject^ myDataObject = gcnew DataObject( DataFormats::Text,"Text to Store" );
   
   // Prints the string in a text box.
   textBox1->Text = myDataObject->GetData( DataFormats::Text )->ToString();
}
private void GetMyData2() {
    // Creates a new data object using a string and the text format.
    DataObject myDataObject = new DataObject(DataFormats.Text, "Text to Store");
 
    // Prints the string in a text box.
    textBox1.Text = myDataObject.GetData(DataFormats.Text).ToString();
 }
Private Sub GetMyData2()
    ' Creates a new data object using a string and the text format.
    Dim myDataObject As New DataObject(DataFormats.Text, "Text to Store")
    
    ' Prints the string in a text box.
    textBox1.Text = myDataObject.GetData(DataFormats.Text).ToString()
End Sub

Remarks

DataObject implements the IDataObject interface, whose methods provide a format-independent mechanism for data transfer.

A DataObject is typically used with the Clipboard and in drag-and-drop operations. The DataObject class provides the recommended implementation of the IDataObject interface. It is suggested that you use the DataObject class rather than implementing IDataObject yourself.

Multiple pieces of data in different formats can be stored in a DataObject. Data is retrieved from a DataObject by its associated format. Because the target application might not be known, you can increase the likelihood that the data will be in the appropriate format for an application by placing the data in a DataObject in multiple formats. See DataFormats for the predefined formats. You can implement your own format by creating an instance of the DataFormats.Format class.

To store data in a DataObject, pass the data to the constructor or call SetData. You can add data in multiple formats to the same DataObject. If you want the data you add to be retrieved in its native format only, call SetData(String, Boolean, Object) with the autoConvert parameter set to false.

Data can be retrieved from a DataObject in any format which is compatible with GetData. For example, text can be converted to Unicode. To retrieve data in the format in which it was stored, call GetData with the autoConvert parameter set to false.

To determine what formats the data is stored in, call GetFormats. To determine if a format is available, call GetDataPresent with the desired format.

In .NET Framework 2.0, the DataObject class provides additional methods that make it easier to work with data in common formats. To add data of a particular format to the DataObject, use the appropriate SetFormat method, such as SetText. To retrieve data of a particular format from the DataObject, first call the appropriate ContainsFormat method (such as ContainsText) to determine whether the DataObject contains data in that format, then call the appropriate GetFormat method (such as GetText) to retrieve the data if the DataObject contains it.

Note

Special considerations may be necessary when using the metafile format with the Clipboard. Due to a limitation in the current implementation of the DataObject class, the metafile format used by the .NET Framework may not be recognized by applications that use an older metafile format. In this case, you must interoperate with the Win32 Clipboard application programming interfaces (APIs).

An object must be serializable for it to be put on the Clipboard. See System.Runtime.Serialization for more information on serialization. If your target application requires a very specific data format, the headers added to the data in the serialization process may prevent the application from recognizing your data. To preserve your data format, add your data as a Byte array to a MemoryStream and pass the MemoryStream to the SetData method.

Explicit Interface Implementations

IDataObject.DAdvise(FORMATETC, ADVF, IAdviseSink, Int32)

Creates a connection between a data object and an advisory sink. This method is called by an object that supports an advisory sink and enables the advisory sink to be notified of changes in the object's data.

IDataObject.DUnadvise(Int32)

Destroys a notification connection that had been previously established.

IDataObject.EnumDAdvise(IEnumSTATDATA)

Creates an object that can be used to enumerate the current advisory connections.

IDataObject.EnumFormatEtc(DATADIR)

Creates an object for enumerating the FORMATETC structures for a data object. These structures are used in calls to GetData(FORMATETC, STGMEDIUM) or SetData(FORMATETC, STGMEDIUM, Boolean).

IDataObject.GetCanonicalFormatEtc(FORMATETC, FORMATETC)

Provides a standard FORMATETC structure that is logically equivalent to a more complex structure. Use this method to determine whether two different FORMATETC structures would return the same data, removing the need for duplicate rendering.

IDataObject.GetData(FORMATETC, STGMEDIUM)

Obtains data from a source data object. The GetData(FORMATETC, STGMEDIUM) method, which is called by a data consumer, renders the data described in the specified FORMATETC structure and transfers it through the specified STGMEDIUM structure. The caller then assumes responsibility for releasing the STGMEDIUM structure.

IDataObject.GetDataHere(FORMATETC, STGMEDIUM)

Obtains data from a source data object. This method, which is called by a data consumer, differs from the GetData(FORMATETC, STGMEDIUM) method in that the caller must allocate and free the specified storage medium.

IDataObject.QueryGetData(FORMATETC)

Determines whether the data object is capable of rendering the data described in the FORMATETC structure. Objects attempting a paste or drop operation can call this method before calling GetData(FORMATETC, STGMEDIUM) to get an indication of whether the operation may be successful.

IDataObject.SetData(FORMATETC, STGMEDIUM, Boolean)

Transfers data to the object that implements this method. This method is called by an object that contains a data source.
