Definition
Important

Returns an IList containing all items on the toolbox.
Overloads
| GetItemContainers() |
Returns an IList containing all items on the toolbox. |
| GetItemContainers(String) |
Returns an IList containing all items in a given category. |
Remarks
The items in the list must be ToolboxItemContainer objects. If the toolbox implementation is organized in categories, this retrieves a combined list of all categories. The list must be read/write, as new items may be added to it.
When the toolbox service adds a new item, it first calls the CreateItemContainer method and then adds the new item to the IList returned from the GetItemContainers method.
If a category name is provided, only the items in that category should be returned. If no category is specified, all items should be returned.
GetItemContainers()
Returns an IList containing all items on the toolbox.
