    For information on features of DataLink please refer to topic DataLink Component Architecture. See also description of InterForm Technology.

    This class is available only in Professional Edition.

    Example
    It is recommended to work with this component in design time. For example, if you create the SQLiteDataTable object (“sqDataTable1”) on Form1, you can access Form1's sqDataTable1 via the DataSource property of Form2's DataLink object (“dataLink1”). In this case, you will find the following entry in Form2.InitializeComponent(): 
    private void InitializeComponent() {
        ...
        this.dataLink1.DataSource = ((object)(Devart.Common.GlobalComponentsCache.GetObjectByName("Form1.sqDataTable1")));
        ...
}
    Private Sub InitializeComponent()
        ...
        Me.DataLink1.DataSource = CType(Devart.Common.GlobalComponentsCache.GetObjectByName("Form1.sqDataTable1"), Object)
        ...
End Sub
