The DataViewCommandHandler type exposes the following members.

Constructors

  Name Description
Public method DataViewCommandHandler Class constructor. Instantiates a new instance of the DataViewCommandHandler class.

Properties

  Name Description
Protected property DataViewHierarchyAccessor Retrieves a DataViewHierarchyAccessor object instance, which provides managed accessors to the IVsHierarchy object that implements the data view hierarchy.
Public property Site Retrieves or sets the object site. (Inherited from ObjectWithSite.)

Methods

  Name Description
Public method Equals Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method ExecuteCommand(Int32, OleCommand, OleCommandExecutionOption, Object) Causes the specified command to execute.
Public method ExecuteCommand(array<Int32[], OleCommand, OleCommandExecutionOption, Object) Causes the specified command to execute on multiple items.
Protected method Finalize Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetCommandStatus Retrieves the status of the commands executing on the specified items.
Public method GetHashCode Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method MemberwiseClone Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method OnSiteChanged Raises the SiteChanged event. (Inherited from ObjectWithSite.)
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Events

  Name Description
Public event SiteChanged Event that is raised when the Site property is changed. (Inherited from ObjectWithSite.)

Explicit Interface Implementations

  Name Description
Explicit interface implemetationPrivate method IObjectWithSite.GetSite Retrieves the last site set using the IObjectWithSite.SetSite method. In cases where there is no known site, the object returns an exception. (Inherited from ObjectWithSite.)
Explicit interface implemetationPrivate method IObjectWithSite.SetSite Provides the site's pointer to the site object. (Inherited from ObjectWithSite.)

Remarks

Implement this object in cases where a data provider has custom commands, or wishes to implement their own version of common commands. Without this class a data provider can only reference native command handler implementations.

When a data provider executes a command, it may want to trigger updates in the data view—for example, by adding, renaming, moving, refreshing, or deleting various object nodes. In order to notify the data view of such changes, a data provider should use methods on the DataViewHierarchyAccessor class provided as a property on this class.

Classes derived from this one should implement the GetCommandStatus method by using the protected DataViewHierarchyAccessor class to contextualize the specified itemIds, and then implement the ExecuteCommand method to actually execute the commands that were indicated as supported.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
