DefaultPropertyAttribute Class
.NET Framework 2.0
Specifies the default property for a component.
Namespace: System.ComponentModel
Assembly: System (in system.dll)
Assembly: System (in system.dll)
[AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Class)] public sealed class DefaultPropertyAttribute : Attribute
/** @attribute AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Class) */ public final class DefaultPropertyAttribute extends Attribute
AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Class) public final class DefaultPropertyAttribute extends Attribute
Use the Name property to get the name of the default property.
For more information, see Attributes Overview and Extending Metadata Using Attributes.
The following example defines a control named MyControl. The class is marked with a DefaultPropertyAttribute that specifies MyProperty as the default property.
[DefaultProperty("MyProperty")] public class MyControl : Control { public int MyProperty { get { // Insert code here. return 0; } set { // Insert code here. } } // Insert any additional code. }
/** @attribute DefaultProperty("MyProperty")
*/
public static class MyControl extends Control
{
/** @property
*/
public int get_MyProperty()
{
// Insert code here.
return 0;
} //get_MyProperty
/** @property
*/
public void set_MyProperty(int value)
{
// Insert code here.
} //set_MyProperty
// Insert any additional code.
} //MyControl
The next example creates an instance of MyControl. Then it gets the attributes for the class, extracts the DefaultPropertyAttribute, and prints the name of the default property.
public static int Main() { // Creates a new control. MyControl myNewControl = new MyControl(); // Gets the attributes for the collection. AttributeCollection attributes = TypeDescriptor.GetAttributes(myNewControl); /* Prints the name of the default property by retrieving the * DefaultPropertyAttribute from the AttributeCollection. */ DefaultPropertyAttribute myAttribute = (DefaultPropertyAttribute)attributes[typeof(DefaultPropertyAttribute)]; Console.WriteLine("The default property is: " + myAttribute.Name); return 0; }
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// Creates a new control.
MyControl myNewControl = new MyControl();
// Gets the attributes for the collection.
AttributeCollection attributes =
TypeDescriptor.GetAttributes(myNewControl);
/* Prints the name of the default property by retrieving the
DefaultPropertyAttribute from the AttributeCollection.
*/
DefaultPropertyAttribute myAttribute =
(DefaultPropertyAttribute)(attributes.get_Item(
DefaultPropertyAttribute.class.ToType()));
Console.WriteLine("The default property is: "
+ myAttribute.get_Name());
} //main
