BaseTemplateParser.GetUserControlType(String) Method

Definition

Compiles and returns the type of the UserControl object that is specified by the virtual path.

This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

protected public:
 Type ^ GetUserControlType(System::String ^ virtualPath);
protected internal Type GetUserControlType (string virtualPath);
member this.GetUserControlType : string -> Type
Protected Friend Function GetUserControlType (virtualPath As String) As Type

Parameters

virtualPath
String

The virtual path of the UserControl.

Returns

The type of the user control.

Exceptions

The UserControl specified by virtualPath is marked as no compile.

-or-

The parser does not permit a virtual reference to the UserControl.

Remarks

If a PageParserFilter object is defined and its AllowVirtualReference property is false, the GetUserControlType method raises an HttpException exception.

Additionally, if the UserControl object that is referenced by the virtual path is marked as a no-compile control, an HttpException exception will be thrown. To force a UserControl to be compiled, set the compilation mode attribute in its @ Control directive to the Always field. To set the compilation mode for pages and controls across an application, set the compilationMode attribute of the pages Element (ASP.NET Settings Schema) in the Web.config file.
