I have this code now:
using System;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.ComponentModel;
using Infragistics.WebUI.WebDataInput;
namespace WebControlLib
{
/// <summary>
/// Summary description for WebCustomControl1.
/// </summary>
[DefaultProperty("Text"),
ToolboxData("<{0}:LabelMaskEdit runat=server></{0}:LabelMaskEdit>")]
public class LabelMaskEdit : System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebControl
{
private Label label;
private WebMaskEdit textBox;
[Bindable(true), Category("Appearance"), DefaultValue("")]
public string LabelText
{
get
{
EnsureChildControls();
return label.Text;
}
set
{
EnsureChildControls();
label.Text = value;
}
}
[Bindable(true), Category("Appearance"), DefaultValue("")]
public string Text
{
get
{
EnsureChildControls();
return textBox.Text;
}
set
{
EnsureChildControls();
textBox.Text = value;
}
}
protected override void CreateChildControls()
{
label = new Label();
this.Controls.Add(label);
textBox = new WebMaskEdit();
this.Controls.Add(textBox);
}
}
}
It does not give me an error when I drop it on a form.
But I am not getting to much of my control either.
All I see is a label that I cannot assign a text to.
I dont see a text box at all.
What I want is to see text box with all its properties in a property window.
For a label just a text is fine.
How can I do that?
Also when I change something in my customcontrol do I need to remove it
from the form and drop on it again? (Not what I would expect).
Thanks much for help.
