CheckBoxList.CreateControlStyle Method

Definition

Creates a style object that is used internally by the CheckBoxList control to implement all style related properties.

protected:
 override System::Web::UI::WebControls::Style ^ CreateControlStyle();
protected override System.Web.UI.WebControls.Style CreateControlStyle ();
override this.CreateControlStyle : unit -> System.Web.UI.WebControls.Style
Protected Overrides Function CreateControlStyle () As Style

Returns

A Style that contains the style properties of the control.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to override the CreateControlStyle method in a custom server control so that it always returns a new instance of the TableStyle class for the CheckBoxList control.
