CreateDataObject Method

This method is called from CopyToClipboard to produce a DataObject representing the available data formats and their values for the objects in the clipboard.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Protected Overridable Function CreateDataObject( _
   ByVal coll As IGoCollection, _
   ByVal clipdoc As GoDocument _
) As DataObject

protected virtual DataObject CreateDataObject( 
   IGoCollection coll,
   GoDocument clipdoc
)

Parameters

coll: the original collection passed to CopyToClipboard
clipdoc: the GoDocument holding a copy of coll that normally should be the primary value in the clipboard, with a DataFormat as specified by GoDocument.DataFormat.

Remarks

In addition to using the GoDocument.DataFormat format to store the clipdoc, this calls GetBitmapFromCollection(IGoCollection) to draw the collection into a bitmap and to insert it into the clipboard as an alternative Bitmap data format. Finally, each object in the clipboard document that implements IGoLabeledPart provides a text value. The text strings are all concatenated together, separated by NewLines, to provide an alternative textual data format value in the clipboard for those applications that cannot handle bitmaps either.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
