Examples
In the example below, the class ToolboxItemConfig implements the IConfigureToolboxItem interface for all libraries in the Vsip namespace. This implementation sets the ToolboxItemFilterAttribute for the toolbox item ToolboxControl1 so that it is available in the Toolbox only when editing a UserControl, and for the toolbox item ToolboxControl2 so that it is not available in the Toolbox when editing a UserControl.
namespace Vsip.ItemConfiguration {
[ProvideAssemblyFilterAttribute("Vsip.*, Version=*, Culture=*, PublicKeyToken=*")]
[Guid("11BA3E17-12F1-4e48-9E34-AC68335CD9EE")]
public sealed class ToolboxConfig : IConfigureToolboxItem {
...
public void ConfigureToolboxItem(ToolboxItem item) {
if (item == null)
return;
ToolboxItemFilterAttribute newFilter = null;
if (item.TypeName == typeof(ToolboxControl1).ToString()) {
newFilter = new ToolboxItemFilterAttribute("System.Windows.Forms.UserControl",
ToolboxItemFilterType.Require);
}
else if (item.TypeName == typeof(ToolboxControl2).ToString()) {
newFilter = new ToolboxItemFilterAttribute("System.Windows.Forms.UserControl",
ToolboxItemFilterType.Prevent);
}
if (newFilter != null) {
ArrayList array = new ArrayList();
array.Add(newFilter);
item.Filter = (ToolboxItemFilterAttribute[])
array.ToArray(typeof(ToolboxItemFilterAttribute));
}
}
}
}
