NameDescription
System_CAPS_pubmethodCanExtend(Object)

Specifies whether this object can provide its extender properties to the specified object.

An extender provider is a component that provides properties to other components. For example, the ToolTip control is an extender provider. When you add a ToolTip control to a Form, all other controls on the form have a ToolTip property added to their list of properties.

Any component that provides extender properties must implement IExtenderProvider. A visual designer can then call CanExtend to determine which objects in a container should receive the extender properties.

The following code example demonstrates how to implement the IExtenderProvider interface. This example is part of a larger example discussed in How to: Implement a HelpLabel Extender Provider.
