Definition

public:

public override System.Web.UI.Design.ExpressionEditorSheet GetExpressionEditorSheet (string expression, IServiceProvider serviceProvider);
override this.GetExpressionEditorSheet : string * IServiceProvider -> System.Web.UI.Design.ExpressionEditorSheet
Public Overrides Function GetExpressionEditorSheet (expression As String, serviceProvider As IServiceProvider) As ExpressionEditorSheet

Parameters

expression
String

The expression string set for a control property, used to initialize the expression editor sheet. The expression does not include the ConnectionStrings expression prefix.

serviceProvider
IServiceProvider

A service provider implementation supplied by the designer host, used to obtain additional design-time services.

Returns

ExpressionEditorSheet

An ExpressionEditorSheet instance that defines the connection string expression properties.

Remarks

The GetExpressionEditorSheet method returns an editor sheet implementation for connection string expressions. The editor sheet for connection string expressions allows users to select a connection name and type, based on the current connection strings that are defined in the connectionStrings Element (ASP.NET Settings Schema) section of the Web configuration file. Once users have selected the connection expression properties, the editor sheet implementation combines the connection name and type into a connection string expression, which is returned to the visual designer.
