Namespace:  Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Core
Assembly:  Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Core (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Core.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Function GetUnsupportedReason ( _
    source As Guid, _
    command As CommandID, _
    context As Object _
) As String

string GetUnsupportedReason(
    Guid source,
    CommandID command,
    Object context
)

String^ GetUnsupportedReason(
    Guid source, 
    CommandID^ command, 
    Object^ context
)

abstract GetUnsupportedReason : 
        source:Guid * 
        command:CommandID * 
        context:Object -> string

function GetUnsupportedReason(
    source : Guid, 
    command : CommandID, 
    context : Object
) : String

Parameters

  • source
    Type: System.Guid

    A DDEX data source identifier.

  • context
    Type: System.Object

    An object representing the context in which the operation exists.

Return Value

Type: System.String
A localized string describing why the specified operation is not supported, if the operation is in fact not supported; otherwise, nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

The command parameter is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
ArgumentException

The context parameter is not an expected value for the specified operation.

Remarks

This method enables DDEX providers to return a specific reason that an operation is not supported. DDEX clients can display this reason to the user.

Examples

The following code demonstrates how to implement this method to return a useful message when a Deploy command on a connection node in the data explorer is not supported.

using System;
using System.ComponentModel.Design;
using Microsoft.Win32;
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Core;
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Services;

public class MyProviderDynamicSupport2 : IVsDataProviderDynamicSupport
{
    private static readonly CommandID DeployCommand =
        new CommandID(new Guid("6535F307-2083-4cbb-B2FA-11F2DCD69DAF"), 25);

    public bool IsProviderSupported
    {
        get
        {
            return true;
        }
    }

    public bool IsSourceSupported(Guid source)
    {
        return true;
    }

    public bool IsOperationSupported(
        Guid source, CommandID command, object context)
    {
        if (command == null)
        {
            throw new ArgumentNullException("command");
        }
        if (command.Equals(DeployCommand))
        {
            IVsDataExplorerConnection explorerConnection =
                context as IVsDataExplorerConnection;
            if (explorerConnection == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentException();
            }
            RegistryKey key = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(
                @"SOFTWARE\Company\DeployTechnology");
            if (key == null)
            {
                return false;
            }
            key.Close();
        }
        return true;
    }

    public string GetUnsupportedReason(
        Guid source, CommandID command, object context)
    {
        if (command == null)
        {
            throw new ArgumentNullException("command");
        }
        if (command.Equals(DeployCommand) &&
            !IsOperationSupported(source, command, context))
        {
            // Note: This string should be localized 
            return "In order to deploy a database you need to install our deployment technology.";
        }
        return null;
    }
}
