XslTransformFileEditor Class
Assembly: System.Design (in system.design.dll)
An XslTransformFileEditor object is used at design time to select and edit a URL for a XML transform file (.xsl) and to assign the URL to a control property. For example, the XmlDataSource control uses the XslTransformFileEditor class at design time to set the value of the TransformFile property.
Use the EditorAttribute attribute to associate the XslTransformFileEditor with a property. When the associated property is edited on the design surface, the designer host calls the EditValue method. The EditValue method uses the BuildUrl method, which in turn displays a user interface for selecting the URL, and then returns the URL that is selected by the user. The GetEditStyle method indicates the display style of the user interface.
Derive a class from the XslTransformFileEditor to define a custom editor for an XML transform file URL property. For example, a derived class can override the EditValue method, and then call the BuildUrl method with a custom Filter or Caption value.
The following code example demonstrates how to associate an instance of the XslTransformFileEditor class with a property that is contained within a custom control. When the control property is edited on the design surface, the XslTransformFileEditor class allows the user interface to select and edit an XML transform file name for the property value.
