Property Value

Type: Object
An object representing the data item to which the Item is bound to. The DataItem property will always return null when accessed outside of MenuItemDataBound event handler.

Remarks

This property is applicable only during data binding. Use it along with the MenuItemDataBound event to perform additional mapping of fields from the data item to KaxMenuItem properties.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to map fields from the data item to KaxMenuItem properties. It assumes the user has subscribed to the MenuItemDataBound:KaxMenu.MenuItemDataBound event.

C++

Copy

private void KaxMenu1_MenuItemDataBound(object sender, Kettic.AspNetControls.ItemStripEventArgs e)
{
    KaxMenuItem item = e.Item;
    DataRowView dataRow = (DataRowView) e.Item.DataItem;

    item.ImageUrl = "image" + dataRow["ID"].ToString() + ".gif";
    item.NavigateUrl = dataRow["URL"].ToString();
}

Sub KaxMenu1_MenuItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As ItemStripEventArgs) Handles KaxMenu1.MenuItemDataBound
    Dim item As KaxMenuItem = e.Item
    Dim dataRow As DataRowView = CType(e.Item.DataItem, DataRowView)

    item.ImageUrl = "image" + dataRow("ID").ToString() + ".gif"
    item.NavigateUrl = dataRow("URL").ToString()
End Sub
