Remarks

ISupportInitialize allows controls to optimize multiple property assignments. As a result, you can initialize co-dependent properties or batch set multiple properties at design time.

Call the BeginInit method to signal the object that initialization is starting. Call the EndInit method to signal that initialization is complete.

Silverlight XAML processing can call into ISupportInitialize as part of its XAML type loading behavior, if you implement ISupportInitialize on a custom type. For more information, see XAML and Custom Classes.
