System.Web.UI.WebControls.BoundField.InitializeCell Method

Initializes the specified System.Web.UI.WebControls.TableCell object to the specified row state.

Syntax

public override void InitializeCell (DataControlFieldCell cell, DataControlCellType cellType, DataControlRowState rowState, int rowIndex)

Parameters

cell
The System.Web.UI.WebControls.TableCell to initialize.
cellType
One of the System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataControlCellType values.
rowState
One of the System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataControlRowState values.
rowIndex
The zero-based index of the row.

Remarks

The BoundField.InitializeCell(DataControlFieldCell, DataControlCellType, DataControlRowState, int) method is implemented by System.Web.UI.WebControls.BoundField-derived types to add text and controls to a System.Web.UI.WebControls.TableCell object of a data control that uses tables to display a user interface (UI). These data controls create the complete table structure row-by-row when the control's CreateChildControls method is called. The BoundField.InitializeCell(DataControlFieldCell, DataControlCellType, DataControlRowState, int) method is called by the InitializeRow method of data controls such as System.Web.UI.WebControls.DetailsView and System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView.

Call this method when you are writing a custom data-bound control that uses System.Web.UI.WebControls.TableCell objects to initialize the cells of the table structure with data or controls. Implement this method when you are writing a System.Web.UI.WebControls.BoundField-derived class.
