Retrieves an IList collection of data source objects.
public:
static System::Collections::IList ^ GetList(System::Web::UI::IDataSource ^ dataSource);public static System.Collections.IList GetList (System.Web.UI.IDataSource dataSource);static member GetList : System.Web.UI.IDataSource -> System.Collections.IListPublic Shared Function GetList (dataSource As IDataSource) As IListParameters
- dataSource
- IDataSource
An IDataSource that contains one or more associated DataSourceView objects, which are retrieved by a call to GetViewNames().
Returns
An IList of one IDataSource, if the IDataSource has one or more associated DataSourceView objects; otherwise, returns null.
Examples
The following code example demonstrates the design pattern for a data source class that implements the IListSource methods. The GetList method calls the static GetList method.
#region Implementation of IListSource
bool IListSource.ContainsListCollection {
get {
return ListSourceHelper.ContainsListCollection(this);
}
}
IList IListSource.GetList() {
return ListSourceHelper.GetList(this);
}
#endregion
#Region "Implementation of IListSource"
ReadOnly Property ContainsListCollection() As Boolean Implements IListSource.ContainsListCollection
Get
Return ListSourceHelper.ContainsListCollection(Me)
End Get
End Property
Function GetList() As IList Implements IListSource.GetList
Return ListSourceHelper.GetList(Me)
End Function 'IListSource.GetList
#End Region
Remarks
Use this method in an implementation of the IListSource.GetList method, passing a reference to a data source control.
The IList object that is returned implements the ITypedList interface. You can use the GetItemProperties method to retrieve a list of PropertyDescriptor descriptors that correspond to the DataSourceView names associated with the data source control from the list.
