For developers: Implement the ContentViewDesignerView class

To implement the ContentViewDesignerView class in your view, you must override the following members:
  • InitializeControls
    In this override you can access the elements of the template via the container argument.
  • LayoutTemplateName
    This property must return the name of the template of the view.
  • GetScriptReferences
    In this method, the script for the client component is referenced.
  • GetScriptDescriptors
    In this method, you can define an instance of your client class and set the desired properties to it.
  • ViewTitle
    This property must return the display name of the view.
  • ViewName
    This property must return the programmatic name of the view.

Sample code for the DesignerView1 class

public class DesignerView1 : ContentViewDesignerView
{
     public override string ViewTitle
     {
         get
         {
             return "My View";
         }
     }
    
     public override string ViewName
     {
         get
         {
             return this.GetType().Name;
         }
     }
    
     public override IEnumerable<System.Web.UI.ScriptDescriptor> GetScriptDescriptors()
     {
         return null;
     }
    
     public override IEnumerable<System.Web.UI.ScriptReference> GetScriptReferences()
     {
         return null;
     }
    
     protected override void InitializeControls(Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.GenericContainer container)
     {
    
     }
    
     protected override string LayoutTemplateName
     {
         get
         {
             return string.Empty;
         }
     }
}
