ValidatedControlConverter Class

Definition

Converts a control on the Web Forms page that can be validated with a validation control to a string containing the control's ID.

Remarks

Not all controls can be validated with a validation control. This class creates a collection of control IDs on the Web Forms page that can be associated with a validation control. This collection is commonly used in a designer to display a list of controls on the Web Forms page that can be associated with a validation control.

When creating your own validation control, you can enable the designer to display a list of controls that support validation controls. Simply add an attribute to the string property that represents the control to validate, as follows:

<TypeConverter(GetType(ValidatedControlConverter))> _  
 Public Property ControlToValidate() As String  
    Get      
       // Add code to get the ID of the control to validate.  
    End Get  
    Set  
       // Add code to set the ID of the control to validate.  
    End Set  
 End Property  
[TypeConverter(typeof(ValidatedControlConverter))]  
 public string ControlToValidate  
 {  
    get   
    {  
       // Add code to get the ID of the control to validate.  
    }  
    set  
    {  
       // Add code to set the ID of the control to validate.  
    }  
 }
