BaseDataListDesigner.PreFilterProperties(IDictionary) Method

Definition

Used by the designer to remove properties from or add additional properties to the display in the Properties grid or to shadow properties of the associated control.

protected:
 override void PreFilterProperties(System::Collections::IDictionary ^ properties);
protected override void PreFilterProperties (System.Collections.IDictionary properties);
override this.PreFilterProperties : System.Collections.IDictionary -> unit
Protected Overrides Sub PreFilterProperties (properties As IDictionary)

Parameters

properties
IDictionary

A collection implementing an IDictionary interface of the added and shadowed properties.

Remarks

Control designers use methods that are derived from the ComponentDesigner.PreFilterProperties method to shadow various control properties with corresponding design-time properties that the designer implements, and to add properties to or remove properties from the Properties grid.

For controls that are derived from the BaseDataList class, the PreFilterProperties creates design-time properties to shadow the DataSource, DataMember, DataKeyField, and DataSourceID properties.

Notes to Inheritors

Override the PreFilterProperties(IDictionary) method to add properties to or change attributes of properties in the design-time property collection. Be sure to call the base method before performing other processing.
