TreeView::PathSeparator Property

Gets or sets the character that is used to delimit the node values that are specified by the ValuePath property.

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

public:
property wchar_t PathSeparator {
	wchar_t get ();
	void set (wchar_t value);
}
<asp:TreeView PathSeparator="Char" />

Property Value

Type: System::Char
The character used to delimit the node values specified in the ValuePath property. The default is a slash mark (/).

The ValuePath property contains a delimiter-separated list of node values that form a path from the root node to the current node. Use the PathSeparator property to specify the delimiter character that is used to separate the node values. This value is commonly used when parsing the list for the individual values.

Depending on the text that is displayed in the TreeView control, the delimiter character might need to be changed to prevent any conflicts. For example, if you set the delimiter character to a comma, the displayed text should not contain any commas; otherwise, the ValuePath property cannot be parsed accurately.

The value of this property is stored in view state.

The following code example demonstrates how to use the PathSeparator property to specify the delimiter character for the ValuePath property of a node. This value is then used to parse the ValuePath property for the individual values.
