DataBinding(String, Type, String) Constructor

public:
 DataBinding(System::String ^ propertyName, Type ^ propertyType, System::String ^ expression);

public DataBinding (string propertyName, Type propertyType, string expression);

new System.Web.UI.DataBinding : string * Type * string -> System.Web.UI.DataBinding

Public Sub New (propertyName As String, propertyType As Type, expression As String)

Parameters

Examples

The following code example creates a DataBinding object and sets it equal to an existing object in the control's DataBindingCollection collection that has a propertyName parameter with a value of Text. If the collection contains a DataBinding object with a propertyName value of Text, this code returns the value of the object's Expression property. If there is no such object, it returns an empty string ("").

// Create a Text property with accessors that obtain 
// the property value from and set the property value
// to the Text key in the DataBindingCollection class.
public string Text
{
    get
    {
        DataBinding myBinding = DataBindings["Text"];
        if (myBinding != null)
        {
            return myBinding.Expression;
        }
        return String.Empty;
    }
    set
    {

        if ((value == null) || (value.Length == 0))
        {
            DataBindings.Remove("Text");
        }
        else
        {

            DataBinding binding = DataBindings["Text"];

            if (binding == null)
