IWebPartRow.Schema Property

public:
 property System::ComponentModel::PropertyDescriptorCollection ^ Schema { System::ComponentModel::PropertyDescriptorCollection ^ get(); };

public System.ComponentModel.PropertyDescriptorCollection Schema { get; }

member this.Schema : System.ComponentModel.PropertyDescriptorCollection

Public ReadOnly Property Schema As PropertyDescriptorCollection

Property Value

A PropertyDescriptorCollection describing the data.

Examples

The following code example shows the implementation and use of the Schema property. The complete example is shown in the class overview for the IWebPartRow interface. The provider control implements the Schema property. Then the consumer control, in its RenderContents method, queries the Schema property to retrieve information about the row as it writes the row data to the page.

Remarks

This property provides property information for the data. Using the IWebPartRow interface in a connection, you get a PropertyDescriptorCollection object, which is referenced by the Schema property. The contract specifies that calling Schema[n].GetValue(RowData) returns the value of the nth column in the row. You need to use the Schema property to get the values in the row.
