Comentarios

ValidateChildren descenderá la jerarquía de un control y examinará cada control para ver si admite la validación. Si el usuario puede seleccionar el control y su CausesValidation propiedad es true, ValidateChildren hará que se produzca el Validating evento. Si alguno de los controles cancela el Validating evento, este método devolverá false; de lo contrario, devolverá true.

Si un control está enlazado a un origen de datos y se produce el Validating evento, hará que el control vuelva a insertar sus datos actuales en el origen de datos.

La llamada ValidateChildren es equivalente a llamar ValidateChildren a con un ValidationConstraints de None.

ValidateChildren(ValidationConstraints)

Comentarios

ValidateChildren examinará todos los elementos secundarios del control actual, lo que hará que el Validating evento se produzca en un control si cumple los criterios escritos por ValidationConstraints.

Puede usar varios ValidationConstraints parámetros a la vez combinandolos con un operador OR bit a bit. La combinación de parámetros con un operador OR bit a bit producirá una operación AND lógica. Por ejemplo, la llamada ValidateChildren(ValidationConstraints.ImmediateChildren | ValidationConstraints.Enabled) solo generará el Validating evento en los controles que son elementos secundarios inmediatos del contenedor Y están habilitados.

Independientemente de los parámetros que especifique para este método, un control debe tener su CausesValidation propiedad establecida true en para que se produzca su Validating evento. También debe establecer la AutoValidate propiedad del control o del contenedor false del control en si desea que la validación se produzca solo cuando llame ValidateChildrena y no cuando el usuario cambie el foco del control.

Si un control está enlazado a un origen de datos y se produce el Validating evento, hará que el control vuelva a insertar sus datos actuales en el origen de datos.

No se puede lograr el efecto opuesto de un ValidationConstraints parámetro aplicando un operador de negación bit a bit. Por ejemplo, si proporciona el valor negativo del Visible campo a ValidateChildren, no validará todos los elementos secundarios que no estén visibles en el contenedor. Proporcionar cualquier parámetro negativo a ValidateChildren no tendrá ningún efecto en el contenedor ni en sus elementos secundarios.
