Remarks

This method is used primarily by control developers in custom controls that derive from the RadioButtonList class.

The Render method implementation for a RadioButtonList control initializes a RepeatInfo object for the list, and calls the RenderRepeater method, which in turn uses the RenderItem method to render individual radio button list items.
