Calendar.CreateControlCollection Method

  • Reference

Definition

Namespace:
System.Web.UI.WebControls
Assembly:
System.Web.dll

Creates a collection to store child controls.

protected override System.Web.UI.ControlCollection CreateControlCollection();

Returns

ControlCollection

Always returns an InternalControlCollection object.

Examples

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

      <aspSample:CustomCalendarCreateControlCollection
        id="Calendar1"
        runat="server" />

    </form>
  </body>
</html>

using System.Web;
using System.Security.Permissions;

namespace Samples.AspNet.CS.Controls
{
    [AspNetHostingPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, Level = AspNetHostingPermissionLevel.Minimal)]
    public sealed class CustomCalendarCreateControlCollection : System.Web.UI.WebControls.Calendar
    {
    protected override System.Web.UI.ControlCollection CreateControlCollection()
    {
      // Return a new EmptyControlCollection
      return new System.Web.UI.EmptyControlCollection(this);
    }
  }
}

Remarks

The CreateControlCollection method is primarily of interest to control developers who extend the functionality of the Calendar control.
