Namespace: System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations
Assembly: System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations (in System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Property GroupName As String
public string GroupName { get; set; }
Property Value
Type: System.String
Either a resource name or the non-localized text that is displayed to users when grouping fields in the user interface. The resource name is used with the ResourceType property to retrieve localized text that is displayed to users when grouping fields in the user interface.
Remarks
Set the GroupName property to either a literal non-localized string or to a resource key to use with the ResourceType property to retrieve a localized group name.
Do not use the get accessor of the GroupName property to retrieve the text to display in your Silverlight application. Instead, use the GetGroupName method to retrieve the group name to display. The GetGroupName method returns either the literal non-localized string or the localized string when a resource type has been specified.
