ITrackingPersonalizable Interface
Allows Web Parts controls to track the specific phases of the personalization load and save process.
Assembly: System.Web (in System.Web.dll)
The ITrackingPersonalizable type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | BeginLoad | Represents the beginning of the load phase for personalization information. |
![]() | BeginSave | Represents the phase prior to extracting personalization data from a control. |
![]() | EndLoad | Represents the phase after personalization data has been applied to a control. |
![]() | EndSave | Represents the phase after personalization data has been extracted from a control. |
This interface allows control developers to track different phases of the personalization life cycle, including the loading and saving of personalization data. In most cases, to use this interface you would create a custom WebPart or WebPartManager and implement this interface. Additionally, controls that need to manage their own change ("dirty") tracking should implement this interface. Controls that manage their own change tracking should return true from the TracksChanges property.
If false is returned, then ASP.NET is responsible for determining changes by comparing the property information loaded with the property information that was saved.
The following code example demonstrates using ITrackingPersonalizable methods and properties to track the loading and saving of personalization information. The example consists of two parts, an .aspx page and a file that should be placed in an App_Code subdirectory.
The following code example creates a Web Parts control that allows a user to enter URL information and saves this information for the user.
The following .aspx page creates a Web Parts zone and adds the control to the zone. The page also references a login control that you should use to log on individual users so that personalization can be applied.
