Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of ToolboxItemAttribute with the ToolboxItem class as a base class for a custom toolbox item implementation. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the ToolboxItem class.

[ToolboxItem(typeof(MyToolboxItem))]
public class UserControl1 : UserControl
<ToolboxItem(GetType(MyToolboxItem))> _
Public Class UserControl1
    Inherits UserControl

Remarks

The ToolboxItemAttribute class provides a way to specify an attribute for a ToolboxItem. In addition to what the Attribute class provides, this class of object stores the type of the toolbox item.

ToolboxItemAttribute(Type)

Initializes a new instance of the ToolboxItemAttribute class using the specified type of the toolbox item.

Fields
