Adds HTML attributes and styles that need to be rendered to the specified System.Web.UI::HtmlTextWriter and Web server control. This method is primarily used by control developers.

Namespace:   System.Web.UI.WebControls
Assembly:  System.Web (in System.Web.dll)

public:
virtual void AddAttributesToRender(
	HtmlTextWriter^ writer,
	WebControl^ owner
)

Parameters

writer
Type: System.Web.UI::HtmlTextWriter^

An System.Web.UI::HtmlTextWriter that represents the output stream to render HTML content on the client.

owner
Type: System.Web.UI.WebControls::WebControl^

A WebControl or WebControl derived object that represents the Web server control associated with the Style.

To render attributes and styles for a Web server control on the client, you typically call the HtmlTextWriter::AddAttribute and HtmlTextWriter::AddStyleAttribute methods to insert each attribute and style individually to the System.Web.UI::HtmlTextWriter output stream. To simplify the process, this method encapsulates all calls to the HtmlTextWriter::AddAttribute and HtmlTextWriter::AddStyleAttribute methods for every attribute and style associated with the Web Server control. All attributes and styles are inserted into the System.Web.UI::HtmlTextWriter output stream in a single method call. This method is typically overridden by control developers in derived classes to insert the appropriate attributes and styles to the System.Web.UI::HtmlTextWriter output stream for the class.

The following example demonstrates how to create a class that derives from the WebControl class. The base implementation of the AddAttributesToRender method is overridden to add attributes appropriate to the derived class in the System.Web.UI::HtmlTextWriter output stream.
