ControlBuilder.SetTagInnerText Method

Provides the ControlBuilder with the inner text of the control tag.

[Visual Basic]
Public Overridable Sub SetTagInnerText( _
   ByVal text As String _
)
[C#]
public virtual void SetTagInnerText(
 string text
);
[C++]
public: virtual void SetTagInnerText(
 String* text
);
[JScript]
public function SetTagInnerText(
   text : String
);

Parameters

text
The text to be provided.

Remarks

This method is called only if NeedsTagInnerText previously returned true.

Example

[Visual Basic] The following example uses the InDesigner property when the NeedsTagInnerText method is called. When a control has this builder attached to it, the NeedsTagInnerText determines whether the control is being accessed at design-time through a designer. The NeedsTagInnerText method call returns the value of the InDesigner property, and then the SetTagInnerText method is called. If the InDesigner property is set to false, an Exception is thrown. Otherwise, the inner text of the control is returned on the SetTagInnerText call.

[Visual Basic] 
Public Class MyControlControlBuilder
  Inherits ControlBuilder
    
    Private _innerText As String
    
    Overrides Public Function NeedsTagInnerText() As Boolean
      Return InDesigner
    End Function
    
    Overrides Public Sub SetTagInnerText(ByVal text As String)        
       If InDesigner = False
         Throw New System.Exception("The control is not in design mode.")
       Else
         _innerText = text
       End If
    End Sub
    
End Class
