FormParameter Constructor (String, TypeCode, String)

Initializes a new named and strongly typed instance of the FormParameter class, using the specified string to identify which form variable to bind to.

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

public:
FormParameter(
	String^ name, 
	TypeCode type, 
	String^ formField
)

Parameters

name
Type: System::String

The name of the parameter.

type
Type: System::TypeCode

The type that the parameter represents. The default is Object.

formField
Type: System::String

The name of the form variable that the parameter object is bound to. The default is Empty.

A FormParameter object created with the FormParameter constructor is initialized with the specified parameter name, Type, and string that identifies the form variable that the parameter binds to. Only the Direction and ConvertEmptyStringToNull properties are initialized with default values.

Security noteSecurity Note:

The FormParameter does not validate the value passed by the form element in any way; it uses the raw value. In most cases, you can validate the value of the FormParameter before it is used by a data source control by handling an event, such as the Selecting, Updating, Inserting, or Deleting event exposed by the data source control you are using. If the value of the parameter does not pass your validation tests, you can cancel the data operation by setting the Cancel property of the associated CancelEventArgs class to true.
