This class provides the default designer that can be used for all data generators.

Namespace:  Microsoft.Data.Schema.DataGenerator
Assembly:  Microsoft.Data.Schema (in Microsoft.Data.Schema.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<CLSCompliantAttribute(True)> _
Public Class DefaultGeneratorDesigner _
    Implements IGeneratorDesigner, IDesigner
'Usage
Dim instance As DefaultGeneratorDesigner
[CLSCompliantAttribute(true)]
public class DefaultGeneratorDesigner : IGeneratorDesigner, 
    IDesigner
[CLSCompliantAttribute(true)]
public ref class DefaultGeneratorDesigner : IGeneratorDesigner, 
    IDesigner
public class DefaultGeneratorDesigner implements IGeneratorDesigner, IDesigner

Remarks

You can override this designer to achieve custom designer behavior.

One instance of the designer exists for each column that the data generation plan includes.

The default designer determines the design-time behavior of the data generators, which include the following:

  • Getting the names of the input properties for the Properties window.

  • Setting the default values of the input properties in the Properties window.

  • Validating the data that the user specifies in the Properties window.

  • Getting the names of the output properties for the Generator Output column.

This designer determines the input and output properties by reading the InputAttribute and OutputAttribute of each data generator.
