'Declaration
 
Public Class DataLink 
   Inherits System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource
   Implements System.Collections.ICollection, System.Collections.IEnumerable, System.Collections.IList, System.ComponentModel.IBindingList, System.ComponentModel.IBindingListView, System.ComponentModel.ICancelAddNew, System.ComponentModel.IComponent, System.ComponentModel.IListSource, System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize, System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitializeNotification, System.ComponentModel.ITypedList, System.IDisposable, System.Windows.Forms.ICurrencyManagerProvider

public class DataLink : System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource, System.Collections.ICollection, System.Collections.IEnumerable, System.Collections.IList, System.ComponentModel.IBindingList, System.ComponentModel.IBindingListView, System.ComponentModel.ICancelAddNew, System.ComponentModel.IComponent, System.ComponentModel.IListSource, System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize, System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitializeNotification, System.ComponentModel.ITypedList, System.IDisposable, System.Windows.Forms.ICurrencyManagerProvider

Example

It is recommended to work with this component in design time. For example, if you create the MagentoDataTable object (“adobe commerceDataTable1”) on Form1, you can access Form1's adobe commerceDataTable1 via the DataSource property of Form2's DataLink object (“dataLink1”). In this case, you will find the following entry in Form2.InitializeComponent():

csharp

private void InitializeComponent() {
        ...
        this.dataLink1.DataSource = ((object)(Devart.Common.GlobalComponentsCache.GetObjectByName("Form1.adobe commerceDataTable1")));
        ...
}

Visual Basic

Private Sub InitializeComponent()
        ...
        Me.DataLink1.DataSource = CType(Devart.Common.GlobalComponentsCache.GetObjectByName("Form1.adobe commerceDataTable1"), Object)
        ...
End Sub
