Use the TreeNodeBinding constructor to initialize a new instance of the TreeNodeBinding class. It is often used when dynamically populating the DataBindings collection of a TreeView control.

The following code example demonstrates how to use the TreeNodeBinding constructor to add a TreeNodeBinding object dynamically to the DataBindings collection of a TreeView control.
