TabPage::GetTabPageOfComponent Method (Object^)

 

Retrieves the tab page that contains the specified object.

Namespace:   System.Windows.Forms
Assembly:  System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)

public:
static TabPage^ GetTabPageOfComponent(
	Object^ comp
)

Parameters

comp
Type: System::Object^

The object to look for.

Return Value

Type: System.Windows.Forms::TabPage^

The TabPage that contains the specified object, or null if the object cannot be found.

The following code example creates a TabControl with two TabPage objects, each containing one Button component. The parameter button2 is passed to the GetTabPageOfComponent method, which retrieves the TabPage containing button2. To verify that the correct tab page is retrieved, the SelectedIndex property sets the TabPage containing button2 to the currently selected tab page.

Use the System.Drawing and System.Windows.Forms namespaces for this example.

using namespace System::Drawing;
using namespace System::Windows::Forms;
public ref class Form1: public System::Windows::Forms::Form
{
private:
   TabControl^ tabControl1;
   TabPage^ tabPage1;
   TabPage^ tabPage2;
   Button^ button1;
   Button^ button2;
   void InitializeMyTabs()
   {
      tabControl1 = gcnew System::Windows::Forms::TabControl;
      tabPage1 = gcnew System::Windows::Forms::TabPage;
      tabPage2 = gcnew System::Windows::Forms::TabPage;
      button1 = gcnew System::Windows::Forms::Button;
      button2 = gcnew System::Windows::Forms::Button;
      array<System::Windows::Forms::Control^>^tabControls = {tabPage1,tabPage2};
      tabControl1->Controls->AddRange( tabControls );
      tabControl1->Location = System::Drawing::Point( 40, 24 );
      tabControl1->Size = System::Drawing::Size( 216, 216 );
      tabControl1->TabIndex = 0;
      array<System::Windows::Forms::Control^>^tabPage1Controls = {button1};
      tabPage1->Controls->AddRange( tabPage1Controls );
      tabPage1->TabIndex = 0;
      array<System::Windows::Forms::Control^>^tabPage2Controls = {button2};
      tabPage2->Controls->AddRange( tabPage2Controls );
      tabPage2->TabIndex = 1;
      button1->Location = System::Drawing::Point( 64, 72 );
      button2->Location = System::Drawing::Point( 64, 72 );
      button2->Text = "button2";
      ClientSize = System::Drawing::Size( 292, 273 );
      array<System::Windows::Forms::Control^>^formControls = {tabControl1};
      Controls->AddRange( formControls );

      // Gets the index of the TabPage containing button2.
      // Selects the index of the TabPage containing button2.
      tabControl1->SelectedIndex = (TabPage::GetTabPageOfComponent( button2 ))->TabIndex;
   }


public:
   Form1()
   {
      InitializeMyTabs();
   }

};

int main()
{
   Application::Run( gcnew Form1 );
