IRowProvider.RowReady event

NOTE: This API is now obsolete.

Occurs when the selected row in a provider Web Part changes, such as when a row is updated or selected.

Namespace:  Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.Communication
Assembly:  Microsoft.SharePoint (in Microsoft.SharePoint.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<ObsoleteAttribute("Use System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.IWebPartRow instead")> _
Event RowReady As RowReadyEventHandler
'Usage
Dim instance As IRowProvider
Dim handler As RowReadyEventHandler

AddHandler instance.RowReady, handler
[ObsoleteAttribute("Use System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.IWebPartRow instead")]
event RowReadyEventHandler RowReady

Remarks

The event handler receives an argument of type Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.Communication.RowReadyEventArgs containing data related to this event. The following RowReadyEventArgs properties Rows and SelectionStatus provide information specific to this event

Examples

The following code example shows an overridden PartCommunicationMain method that creates a RowReadyEventArgsobject, sets the row values and selection status, and then fires the RowReady event. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the IRowProvider interface.

      ' Step #8: Override the PartCommunicationMain method.
      ' The PartCommunicationMain method is called by the Web Part 
      ' infrastructure on the client during the 
      ' ASP.NET PreRender event to allow the part to pass its primary 
      ' data to the other connected parts.
      ' It is important to always fire the RowReady event. Some parts
      ' may not behave properly if they are left waiting for this 
      ' information.
       Public Overrides Sub PartCommunicationMain()
            ' Check if connected.
            If _connected Then
                'Create the RowReadyEventArgs object for the RowReady event.
                Dim rowReadyEventArgs As New RowReadyEventArgs()

                ' Declare data variables.
                Dim selectionStatus As String = ""
                Dim dr(0) As DataRow

                ' If a row is selected, send the row.
                If _dataGrid.SelectedIndex > -1 Then
