SetValidationError Method

Sets a validation error to be displayed next to an input component, overriding all validation messages previously set by the validation provider.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Sub SetValidationError( _

   ByVal component As Object, _

   ByVal error As String _

)

'Usage
 
Dim instance As ValidationProvider

Dim component As Object

Dim error As String

 

instance.SetValidationError(component, error)

public void SetValidationError( 

   object component,

   string error

)

Parameters

component: The input component to associate with the error.
error: The error message to be associated to the passed input component.

Remarks

The validation provider sets errors automatically using its validation expressions and validation message settings. Using this method to change error messages will only change the validation message and will not affect the automatic validation behavior. For Xceed.Grid.Cell components, the error description property can also be used to access the validation errors. Using this method is recommended for exceptional cases.

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
