public virtual void SetObject (System.Web.UI.Control control, object data);

override this.SetObject : System.Web.UI.Control * obj -> unit

Public Overridable Sub SetObject (control As Control, data As Object)

Parameters

control: Control

The consumer control associated with a consumer connection point.

data: Object

The interface instance returned from a provider control.

Exceptions

ArgumentNullException

control is null.

Remarks

This method receives an interface instance from a provider that contains data for the consumer control.

The SetObject method is called by WebPartConnection objects when a connection is being activated. This is a critical step that is part of initiating a connection and enabling two controls to share data.

The consumer control in a connection must be able to work with the same type of interface as the provider. If it does not, the controls are incompatible and a WebPartTransformer object must be used to establish a connection.
