public:
static System::Object ^ GetIndexedPropertyValue(System::Object ^ container, System::String ^ expr);
public static object GetIndexedPropertyValue (object container, string expr);
static member GetIndexedPropertyValue : obj * string -> obj
Public Shared Function GetIndexedPropertyValue (container As Object, expr As String) As Object
Parameters
- container
- Object
The object reference against which expr
is evaluated. This must be a valid object identifier in the specified language for the page.
- expr
- String
The navigation path from the container
object to the public property value to place in the bound control property. This must be a string of property or field names separated by periods, such as Tables[0].DefaultView.[0].Price
in C# or Tables(0).DefaultView.(0).Price
in Visual Basic.
Returns
An object that results from the evaluation of the data-binding expression.
Exceptions
Remarks
The value of expr
must evaluate to a public property.
For any of the list Web controls, such as GridView, DetailsView, DataList, or Repeater, container
should be Container.DataItem
. If you are binding against the page, container
should be Page
.

GetIndexedPropertyValue(Object, String, String)
Retrieves the value of the specified property for the specified container, and then formats the results.
public:
static System::String ^ GetIndexedPropertyValue(System::Object ^ container, System::String ^ propName, System::String ^ format);
public static string GetIndexedPropertyValue (object container, string propName, string format);
static member GetIndexedPropertyValue : obj * string * string -> string
Public Shared Function GetIndexedPropertyValue (container As Object, propName As String, format As String) As String
Parameters
- container
- Object
The object reference against which the expression is evaluated. This must be a valid object identifier in the specified language for the page.
- propName
- String
The name of the property that contains the value to retrieve.
- format
- String
A string that specifies the format in which to display the results.
Returns
The value of the specified property in the format specified by format
.
Examples
The following code example demonstrates how to use the GetIndexedPropertyValue method declaratively to bind to an indexed value.
<%# DataBinder.GetIndexedPropertyValue(Container.DataItem, "[0][0]", "{0:c}") %>
<%# DataBinder.GetIndexedPropertyValue(Container.DataItem, "[0][0]", "{0:c}") %>
Remarks
The GetIndexedPropertyValue method invokes the GetIndexedPropertyValue method, and then uses the String.Format method to format the result as specified in the format
parameter. A .NET Framework format string (like those used by String.Format) converts the Object instance returned by the data-binding expression to a String object.
Exceptions that are thrown for the GetIndexedPropertyValue method apply to the GetIndexedPropertyValue method as well.
