ListViewCancelEventArgs Class

Definition

Provides data for the ItemCanceling event.

public ref class ListViewCancelEventArgs : System::ComponentModel::CancelEventArgs
public class ListViewCancelEventArgs : System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs
type ListViewCancelEventArgs = class
    inherit CancelEventArgs
Public Class ListViewCancelEventArgs
Inherits CancelEventArgs
Inheritance
ListViewCancelEventArgs

Examples

The following example shows how to use the ListViewCancelEventArgs object to display a message when the user cancels the insert or update operation in a ListView control. The ListViewCancelEventArgs object is passed to the event-handling method for the ItemCanceling event.

Important

This example contains a text box that accepts user input, which is a potential security threat. By default, ASP.NET Web pages validate that user input does not include script or HTML elements. For more information, see Script Exploits Overview.

Remarks

The ListView control raises the ItemCanceling event when the Cancel button is clicked, but before exiting insert or edit mode. (A Cancel button is a button whose CommandName property is set to "Cancel") This enables you to provide an event-handling method that performs a custom routine whenever this event occurs, such as stopping the cancel operation if it would put the item in an unwanted state.

A ListViewCancelEventArgs object is passed to the event-handling method. This object enables you to determine the index of the item that contains the Cancel button that raised the event. You can also determine what operation was canceled. To stop the cancel operation, set the Cancel property to true.

For a list of initial property values for an instance of the ListViewCancelEventArgs class, see the ListViewCancelEventArgs constructor.

Constructors

ListViewCancelEventArgs(Int32, ListViewCancelMode)

Initializes a new instance of the ListViewCancelEventArgs class.

Properties

Cancel

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the event should be canceled.

(Inherited from CancelEventArgs)
CancelMode

Gets the data-entry mode that the ListView control was in when the Cancel button was clicked.

ItemIndex

Gets the index of the item that contains the Cancel button that raised the event.

Methods

Equals(Object)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

(Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function.

(Inherited from Object)
GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
