ObjectDesignerDataSourceView.GetDesignTimeData Method

Note: This method is new in the .NET Framework version 2.0.

Generates design-time data that matches the schema of the associated data source control.

Namespace: System.Web.UI.Design.WebControls
Assembly: System.Design (in system.design.dll)

public:
virtual IEnumerable^ GetDesignTimeData (
	int minimumRows, 
	[OutAttribute] bool% isSampleData
) override
public IEnumerable GetDesignTimeData (
	int minimumRows, 
	/** @attribute OutAttribute() */ /** @ref */ boolean isSampleData
)
JScript does not support passing value-type arguments by reference.

Parameters

minimumRows

An integer containing the minimum number of rows to retrieve.

isSampleData

A value indicating whether the data returned is sample data or real data.

Return Value

A sample of the data represented by the associated ObjectDataSource or a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if the designer cannot generate any sample data.

The GetDesignTimeData method provides a design-time version of the ObjectDataSource view for use by the associated data-bound control designer.

It is not expected that the designer will perform actual data access at design-time time. Instead, the designer creates sample data that matches the schema of the data source.
