IListSource.GetList Method

Definition

Namespace:
System.ComponentModel
Assemblies:
System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter.dll, System.dll, netstandard.dll

Returns an IList that can be bound to a data source from an object that does not implement an IList itself.

public:
 System::Collections::IList ^ GetList();
public System.Collections.IList GetList ();
abstract member GetList : unit -> System.Collections.IList
Public Function GetList () As IList

Returns

IList

An IList that can be bound to a data source from the object.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to implement the IListSource interface. A component named EmployeeListSource exposes an IList for data binding by implementing the GetList method. For a full code listing, see How to: Implement the IListSource Interface.

System.Collections.IList IListSource.GetList()
{
    BindingList<Employee>   ble = new BindingList<Employee>();

    if (!this.DesignMode)
    {
        ble.Add(new Employee("Aaberg, Jesper", 26000000));
        ble.Add(new Employee("Cajhen, Janko", 19600000));
        ble.Add(new Employee("Furse, Kari", 19000000));
        ble.Add(new Employee("Langhorn, Carl", 16000000));
        ble.Add(new Employee("Todorov, Teodor", 15700000));
        ble.Add(new Employee("Verebélyi, Ágnes", 15700000));
    }

    return ble;
}

Public Function GetList() As System.Collections.IList Implements System.ComponentModel.IListSource.GetList

    Dim ble As New BindingList(Of Employee)

    If Not Me.DesignMode Then
        ble.Add(New Employee("Aaberg, Jesper", 26000000))
        ble.Add(New Employee("Cajhen, Janko", 19600000))
        ble.Add(New Employee("Furse, Kari", 19000000))
        ble.Add(New Employee("Langhorn, Carl", 16000000))
        ble.Add(New Employee("Todorov, Teodor", 15700000))
        ble.Add(New Employee("Verebélyi, Ágnes", 15700000))
    End If

    Return ble

End Function
