Cómo: Aplicar atributos en controles de formularios Windows Forms

Actualización: noviembre 2007

Para desarrollar componentes y controles que interactúen correctamente con el entorno de diseño y se ejecuten correctamente en tiempo de ejecución, necesita aplicar correctamente los atributos a las clases y miembros.

Ejemplo

En el ejemplo de código siguiente se muestra cómo utilizar varios atributos en un control personalizado. El control muestra una función de registro simple. Cuando el control se enlaza a un origen de datos, muestra los valores enviados por el origen de datos en un control DataGridView. Si un valor supera el valor especificado por la propiedad Threshold, se provoca un evento ThresholdExceeded.

El AttributesDemoControl registra los valores con una clase LogEntry. La clase LogEntry es una clase de plantilla, que significa que se parametriza en el tipo que registra. Por ejemplo, si AttributesDemoControl está registrando valores de tipo float, se declara cada instancia LogEntry y se utiliza de la forma siguiente.

' This method handles the timer's Elapsed event. It queries
' the performance counter for the next value, packs the 
' value in a LogEntry object, and adds the new LogEntry to
' the list managed by the BindingSource.
 Private Sub timer1_Elapsed( _
 ByVal sender As Object, _
 ByVal e As System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs) _
 Handles timer1.Elapsed

     ' Get the latest value from the performance counter.
     Dim val As Single = Me.performanceCounter1.NextValue()

     ' The performance counter returns values of type float, 
     ' but any type that implements the IComparable interface
     ' will work.
     Dim entry As LogEntry(Of Single) = _
     New LogEntry(Of Single)(val, DateTime.Now)

     ' Add the new LogEntry to the BindingSource list.
     Me.bindingSource1.Add(entry)
 End Sub
        // This method handles the timer's Elapsed event. It queries
        // the performance counter for the next value, packs the 
        // value in a LogEntry object, and adds the new LogEntry to
        // the list managed by the BindingSource.
        private void timer1_Elapsed(
            object sender, 
            System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs e)
        {   
            // Get the latest value from the performance counter.
            float val = this.performanceCounter1.NextValue();

            // The performance counter returns values of type float, 
            // but any type that implements the IComparable interface
            // will work.
            LogEntry<float> entry = new LogEntry<float>(val, DateTime.Now);

            // Add the new LogEntry to the BindingSource list.
            this.bindingSource1.Add(entry);
        }
Nota:

Dado que un tipo arbitrario parametriza LogEntry, debe utilizar la reflexión para funcionar en el tipo de parámetro. Para que funcione la característica de umbral, el tipo de parámetro T debe implementar la interfaz IComparable.

El formulario que aloja el AttributesDemoControl consulta periódicamente un contador de rendimiento. Cada valor se empaqueta en LogEntry del tipo adecuado y se agrega al BindingSource del formulario. AttributesDemoControl recibe el valor a través de su enlace de datos y muestra el valor en un control DataGridView.

            System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture,
            object value,
            Type destinationType)

Atributos de nivel de miembro

Algunos atributos se aplican en el nivel de miembro. En los ejemplos de código siguientes se muestran algunos atributos que se suelen aplicar a las propiedades de los controles de formularios Windows Forms.

<Category("Appearance"), _
Description("The title of the log data."), _
DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Visible), Localizable(True), _
HelpKeywordAttribute("AttributesDemoControlLibrary.AttributesDemoControl.TitleText")> _
Public Property TitleText() As String
    Get
        Return Me.label1.Text
    End Get

    Set(ByVal value As String)
        Me.label1.Text = value
    End Set
End Property
[Category("Appearance")]
[Description("The title of the log data.")]
[DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Visible)]
[Localizable(true)]
[HelpKeywordAttribute("AttributesDemoControlLibrary.AttributesDemoControl.TitleText")]
public string TitleText
{
    get
    {
        return this.label1.Text;
    }

    set
    {
        this.label1.Text = value;
    }
}

Atributo AmbientValue

En el ejemplo siguiente se muestra AmbientValueAttribute y muestra código que admite su interacción con el entorno de diseño. Esta interacción se denomina ambiente.

<AmbientValue(GetType(Color), "Empty"), _
Category("Appearance"), _
DefaultValue(GetType(Color), "White"), _
Description("The color used for painting alert text.")> _
Public Property AlertForeColor() As Color
    Get
        If Me.alertForeColorValue = Color.Empty AndAlso (Me.Parent IsNot Nothing) Then
            Return Parent.ForeColor
        End If

        Return Me.alertForeColorValue
    End Get

    Set(ByVal value As Color)
        Me.alertForeColorValue = value
    End Set
End Property

' This method is used by designers to enable resetting the
' property to its default value.
Public Sub ResetAlertForeColor()
    Me.AlertForeColor = AttributesDemoControl.defaultAlertForeColorValue
End Sub

' This method indicates to designers whether the property
' value is different from the ambient value, in which case
' the designer should persist the value.
Private Function ShouldSerializeAlertForeColor() As Boolean
    Return Me.alertForeColorValue <> AttributesDemoControl.ambientColorValue
End Function
[AmbientValue(typeof(Color), "Empty")]
[Category("Appearance")]
[DefaultValue(typeof(Color), "White")]
[Description("The color used for painting alert text.")]
public Color AlertForeColor
{
    get
    {
        if (this.alertForeColorValue == Color.Empty &&
            this.Parent != null)
        {
            return Parent.ForeColor;
        }

        return this.alertForeColorValue;
    }

    set
    {
        this.alertForeColorValue = value;
    }
}

// This method is used by designers to enable resetting the
// property to its default value.
public void ResetAlertForeColor()
{
    this.AlertForeColor = AttributesDemoControl.defaultAlertForeColorValue;
}

// This method indicates to designers whether the property
// value is different from the ambient value, in which case
// the designer should persist the value.
private bool ShouldSerializeAlertForeColor()
{
    return (this.alertForeColorValue != AttributesDemoControl.ambientColorValue);
}

Atributos de enlace de datos

En los ejemplos siguientes se muestra una implementación de enlace de datos complejo. El ComplexBindingPropertiesAttribute de nivel de clase, mostrado previamente, especifica las propiedades DataSource y DataMember que se van a utilizar para el enlace de datos. AttributeProviderAttribute especifica el tipo al que se enlazará la propiedad DataSource.

<Category("Data"), _
Description("Indicates the source of data for the control."), _
RefreshProperties(RefreshProperties.Repaint), _
AttributeProvider(GetType(IListSource))> _
Public Property DataSource() As Object
    Get
        Return Me.dataGridView1.DataSource
    End Get

    Set(ByVal value As Object)
        Me.dataGridView1.DataSource = value
    End Set
End Property
[Category("Data")]
[Description("Indicates the source of data for the control.")]
[RefreshProperties(RefreshProperties.Repaint)]
[AttributeProvider(typeof(IListSource))]
public object DataSource
{
    get
    {
        return this.dataGridView1.DataSource;
    }

    set
    {
        this.dataGridView1.DataSource = value;
    }
}
<Category("Data"), _
Description("Indicates a sub-list of the data source to show in the control.")> _
Public Property DataMember() As String
    Get
        Return Me.dataGridView1.DataMember
    End Get

    Set(ByVal value As String)
        Me.dataGridView1.DataMember = value
    End Set
End Property
[Category("Data")]
[Description("Indicates a sub-list of the data source to show in the control.")]
public string DataMember
{
    get
    {
        return this.dataGridView1.DataMember;
    }

    set
    {
        this.dataGridView1.DataMember = value;
    }
}
