RunBot Class Members

The following tables list the members exposed by RunBot.

Public Constructors
 NameDescription
Public ConstructorRunBot ConstructorCreates a RunBot derived object and stores a reference to the ControlMain object that is associated.  
Public Properties
 NameDescription
Public PropertyAttributesAttributeCollection property that can be used to add Html markup attributes to the UIObject which will be rendered to the Html stream during the rendering phase. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.UIObject)
Public PropertyCustomAJAXResponseContainer for values passed to client within AJAX response.  
Public PropertyDesignMode  
Public PropertyEnableAjaxCallbacks  
Public PropertyEnableAppStylingEnables support on WebTree for the Application Styling Framework(tm).  
Public PropertyEnableEmbeddedJavaScriptInstructs the control to load its embedded Java Script.  
Public PropertyHasAttributesReturns a boolean value which indicates if the UIObject currently has any Attributes. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.UIObject)
Public PropertyImageDirectory  
Public PropertyIsCallback  
Public PropertyIsEmptyChecks if ViewState has any property with not a default value. This property should be overriden by extended class when additional subobjects are supported. IsEmpty will then check each subobject and return a value based on the check of those objects plus itself. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase)
Public PropertyLoadViewStateCalledReturns whether the view state has been loaded yet  
Public PropertyStyleSetNameName of the Application Styling Framework(tm) style set defining the themed appearance for this control.  
Public PropertyStyleSetPathPath containing the Application Styling Framework(tm) style set files for this type of control.  
Public PropertyTemplate (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.UIObject)
Public PropertyUserAgentInformation about client that is making the request.  
Public PropertyXAttributeIndicates which attribute should be used for XAttribute.  
Protected Properties
 NameDescription
Protected PropertyAdditionalClientState (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase)
Protected PropertyCollectionData (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase)
Protected PropertyControlReference to the control that owns this RunBot.  
Protected PropertyDeferLoadPostDataProcessingDetermines if the loading of postback data should be deferred until a later point when the object model is properly restored. This situaion occurs when no ViewState is present and the control must databind first in order to populate the object model.  
Protected PropertyDelayLoadingClientCollectionsOverridden. If true will delay the client collections loading in LoadPostData, after the view state has been loaded. If false the client collections will be loaded in HandleOnInit, when LoadClientState is called.  
Protected PropertyFlagsStores all the ClientUIFlags into one integer, that will be passed down to the client in the Client Property Array. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.UIObject)
Protected PropertyIsTrackingViewStateThis method returns a boolean value which indicates whether ViewState is being tracked for the object. Once viewstate is being tracked, all property changes are roundtripped from server to client and back within the ViewState hidden field. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase)
Protected PropertyOptimizeCollectionsStateThe collections client state will be stored in the view state and the client collections will not be sent from the client on postback. This is possible because client collections contain static data that does not change on the client. This data is used by the client API and when something is updated it is stored in the transactions list. If false the collections from the client side will be uploaded as before. Setting this to true, will increase page size in terms of view state, but will decrease the postback time numerously, because the collections state will not be uploaded from the client.  
Protected PropertyPropCountOverridden. The number of properties that should be sent down to the client. This value should come from the Object's Props Enumeration "Count";  
Protected PropertySupportsAjaxIndicatorReturns true if control wants to support ajax indicator  
Protected PropertyTransactionLists (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase)
Protected PropertyViewStateProperty to return the ViewState bag for the object. If none exist, then one is created. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase)
Public Methods
 NameDescription
Public MethodAddXAttributeOverloaded. Write id to writer with one attribute. Before call to that method owner of this RunBot should call InitializeXAttributes() if not DesignMode.

Public MethodCreateTemplateContainerControl  
Public MethodEnsureTemplateOverloaded. This method takes a reference to a control and potentially, the children of the control, and adds them to the TemplateContainer for this UIObject, and thereby, to the control tree of the page. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.UIObject)
Public MethodFindControlThis method searches for a locates control objects within the TemplateContainer associated with this UIObject by using the Id parameter to match against control Ids. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.UIObject)
Public MethodGetScriptReferences  
Public MethodGetValueOverloaded. Obtains a generic object property value from ViewState based on the string id defined as a constant in the derived class.  
Public MethodGetXAttributeStringReturns full XAttribute string which includes XAttribute name and its encoded value.  
Public MethodGetXAttributeValueReturns the value of XAttribute.  
Public MethodHandleLoadViewStateCalled when control view state is loaded. Here RunBot may load any additional data that was saved to the view state.  
Public MethodHandleOnInit  
Public MethodHandlePreRender  
Public MethodHandleRenderContents  
Public MethodHandleSaveViewStateCalled when control view state is saved. Here RunBot may save any additional data to the view state.  
Public MethodInitializeCollectionReferencesUsed by Control Developers only. Allows callers in external assemblies to initialize internal references for collections  
Public MethodInitializeStyles  
Public MethodInitializeXAttributesInitialize builder of XAttributes. That should be called for not DesignMode before every painting.  
Public MethodInstantiateTemplateOverloaded. Instantiates the template.  
Public MethodIsDirtyOverloaded. Public shortcut to check if object has had data changes Derived classes must override this method if they conain subobjects in addition to Style or Attributes so that the item will be saved to ViewState if the subobject is dirty. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.UIObject)
Public MethodLoadClientDataThis method allows client data to be loaded at any time necessary and sets a flag so that it does not get loaded twice.  
Public MethodRegisterScriptDescriptorsRegisters script descriptors of the control the run bot is associated with. The method can be overriden to do custom descriptor registration.  
Public MethodSetValueOverloaded. Sets an object value so that it is maintained in viewstate
