UIElement.OnCreateAutomationPeer Method

Definition

Returns class-specific AutomationPeer implementations for the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) infrastructure.

protected:
 virtual System::Windows::Automation::Peers::AutomationPeer ^ OnCreateAutomationPeer();
protected virtual System.Windows.Automation.Peers.AutomationPeer OnCreateAutomationPeer ();
abstract member OnCreateAutomationPeer : unit -> System.Windows.Automation.Peers.AutomationPeer
override this.OnCreateAutomationPeer : unit -> System.Windows.Automation.Peers.AutomationPeer
Protected Overridable Function OnCreateAutomationPeer () As AutomationPeer

Returns

The type-specific AutomationPeer implementation.

Notes to Inheritors

The implementation of this method is typically to call the constructor of a specific AutomationPeer implementation, and return it as the return value.

All UIElement derived classes should implement this method in order to provide their own specific AutomationPeer implementations to the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) infrastructure. For details on implementing this pattern, see AutomationPeer.
